Murder on the Sea Otter Express
In the third installment of the Grace “the Hit Mom” Mysteries, a field trip to the New Haven Aquarium ends in disaster when a creepy chaperone falls to his death in the beluga whale tank…when Grace was the one who was supposed to kill him. Per usual, Grace Adair is juggling it all—being a full-time mom, part-time lawyer, freelance editor, divinely-contracted assassin—and now, school chaperone. Her son’s field trip to the local aquarium takes a dive when Eric Egan, a district curriculum administrator, is unceremoniously thrown off the aquarium’s Sea Otter Express into the beluga whale tank. Nobody’s especially upset to see the creep’s body sleeping with the fishes, but Grace is in trouble because Egan was supposed to be her next hit—and she sure wouldn’t have killed him in front of a bunch of first graders. Now, Grace will have to solve the murder, settle decades-old grudges, and keep her own secrets—all while taking care of her family…and serving as flower girl at her handler Madge’s wedding. As the tasks pile up, Grace isn’t sure if she’ll live to see it all done. Don't miss out on books 1 and 2 in the series: Wrong Poison and Hound of the Bonnevilles!
Queen Elizabeth II
‘I am a great admirer of Her Majesty. This gem of a book beautifully encapsulates the life of one of history’s most iconic royals.’ - Barbara BushAt age 25, Elizabeth II became Britain’s fortieth monarch and vowed to dedicate her life to service and duty on behalf of her country. Upon her death, aged 96, she certainly had achieved that. She was the constitutional monarch of fifteen sovereign states, head of the fifty-six member Commonwealth of Nations, Supreme Governor of the Church of England, and Head of the Armed Forces. Most notably, however, on 9 September 2015, she became the longest reigning monarch in British history and for a time was the oldest serving sovereign in the world. She consistently adapted in order to remain relevant, while devotedly upholding the age-old traditions of the monarchy. Although there have only been six British female monarchs, it cannot be denied that some of the most enlightened times in history have occurred during periods of queenship. Elizabeth I led the country through the Golden Age and Victoria ushered in the Industrial Revolution, but it is Elizabeth II who has left the most illustrious and progressive legacy of all: a true icon of modern monarchy.

Kin
THE SPELLBINDING NEW NOVEL FROM THE WOMEN'S PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF AN AMERICAN MARRIAGE* 'This is Tayari Jones's very best work.' ANN PATCHETT, author of Tom Lake* 'Kin is a masterpiece of a novel.' OPRAH WINFREY* 'A future classic.' ROISIN O'DONNELL, author of Nesting*'An exquisite gift.' TIME MAGAZINEA Most Anticipated Book for 2026 according to the New York Times, New Statesman, Guardian, Independent, Financial Times and USA TodayA yearning for their missing mothers pulls Vernice and Annie apart. It will take a devastating tragedy to bring them back together. Vernice and Annie are 'cradle friends', born days apart in Honeysuckle, Louisiana, both destined never to know their mothers. The girls are inseparable, bound by a friendship far deeper than sisterhood. But this is the American south in the 1950s. Black girls like Vernice and Annie have to fight for every opportunity they can, and neither one can build the future they hope for in Honeysuckle. Gradually, inevitably, the girls drift apart. Vernice pursues her education; Annie is lured by the promise of a heady first love affair and a growing obsession with finding her mother. But her search pulls her even further into a world of danger that soon leaves her oldest friend battling to save her. Tayari Jones returns with an exuberant, richly told story about mothers, daughters, and a lifelong friendship that is as dangerous as it is unbreakable.
Casement
Fully Revised and Enlarged Edition with a new ForewordSince his execution for high treason in 1916, Roger Casement has been lauded for his humanitarian activism in Africa and the Amazon. His life, however, has remained obscured behind speculation about his sexuality and his complicated contribution to Ireland’s revolutionary generation that took up arms against the British Empire. He lives on as an enduring enigma in the history of British-Irish relations—a figure who refuses easy categorisation, and whose legacy demands radical reconsideration. Angus Mitchell traces the life of a man fatally divided between serving the empire and advancing demands for an independent Irish nation. Understanding his logical evolution from imperialist to revolutionary unmasks a coherent global dimension to the Irish struggle. The apparent contradictions of his life resolve into a singular commitment to humanity, justice, and universal principles of love and tolerance. Beyond what it tells us about Casement’s fated path to the scaffold in Pentonville Prison, this biography invites readers to question the curation of national history, the hidden power of archives, and the lasting impact of state secrecy.
White Supremacy
Buffalo, New York, 2022. Ten black people murdered. The killer, 18-year-old Payton Gendron, says he was driven by 'Great Replacement' - the conspiracy theory that a Jewish-led elite is replacing white people with black and brown people. This, and a spate of similar hate crimes, begs the question: what are the origins of such behaviou? avin Evans traces the historical roots of white supremacy. He begins in the 19th century with Charles Darwin and his cousin Francis Galton's race-based theories before looking at the spread of eugenics ideas throughout the UK, Europe and the United States, their Holocaust-prompted decline after the Second World War, and their revival in a different guise through the promotion of race science from the late 20th century. Evans also examines the hatching of 'Great Replacement' conspiratorial ideas in the 21st century - and their expression via alt-right forums to the minds of troubled young men with access to assault rifles. White Supremacy breaks new ground in showing the links between mainstream 'Replacement Theory' and the terrorist version cited by far-right killers. It also traces the thread between these ideas and the race science promoted both by the far right and establishment figures. It looks at what these ideas have in common with those promoted by, for example, the founder of eugenics.

Námořník z domu s cimbuřím
Paměti spisovatele, publicisty, námořního jachtaře, plastikového modeláře, překladatele militárií a znalce námořní historie Františka Novotného je možno zařadit mezi díla tzv. „malé historie“, která se na rozdíl od té „velké“ nevěnuje válkám a revolucím, osudům vladařů a vojevůdců a vzniku a pádu impérií, ale životům běžných lidí s jejich drobnými starostmi, ale i radostmi, do nichž ta velká historie proniká jen okrajově, ale v případě totalitního režimu, v němž autor skoro půl století žil, neúprosně.
Autor líčí, jak se tehdy lidé tomuto pronikání bránili, čemuž je uzpůsobeno uspořádání pamětí, které jsou periodizovány podle prezidentů, a František Novotný na tehdejší události ještě reaguje v některých případech dnešními komentáři, neboť mnohé ze současné politiky mu připomíná minulé doby.
Vzhledem k tomu, že autor vyrůstal na brněnském jachtklubu, jsou jeho paměti též kronikou jachtingu v moravské metropoli a svědectvím o vzniku novodobého námořního jachtingu, jenž pak Františku Novotnému uhranul a umožnil mu splnit si mladický sen – stát se námořníkem. Nedosti na tom, jeho paměti jsou též kronikou plastikového modelářství v Československu, když patřil mezi jeho organizátory, a totéž platí i pro hnutí milovníků sci-fi, do něhož se v Brně zapojil mezi prvními, spoluzakládal zde sci-fi klub Nyx a podílel se na organizování Draconů, celorepublikových sjezdů milovníků sci-fi v Brně.
Paměti Františka Novotného nejsou jen vzpomínkami na vlastní život a na životy rodičů a přátel z různých komunit, na jejichž činnosti se podílel, ale také historií jednoho brněnského domu, onoho „domu s cimbuřím“ – a vlastně historií celého města Brna, jehož ulicemi autor čtenáře provází.
Původně měly paměti končit přestěhováním z „domu s cimbuřím“ do kohoutovického sídliště v roce 1981, ale autor připsal dodatek Námořník abonentem na lince č. 137. Když se svět po roce 1990 otevřel, mohl se věnovat práci profesionálního jachetního kapitána, takže své vzpomínky na dvacáté století uzavírá jako jachtařský cestopis, aby doložil, že si svůj sen splnil a opravdu se stal „námořníkem z domu s cimbuřím“.
Stíhací eso luftwaffe
Samotný Norbert Hannig skromně připouští, že byl frontovým letcem neboli operačním pilotem, který během druhé světové války nedělal nic zvláštního. Byl jen, jak sám říká, jedním z mnoha řadových pilotů, kteří bojovali za svou vlast a ne za Führera. Ale jeho válečná kariéra je fascinujícím a vysoce informativním čtením zejména o tažení proti Sovětskému svazu. Patřil ke střední generaci stíhacích pilotů luftwaffe a počátkem roku 1943 začal operačně létat v 54. stíhací skupině na východní frontě (Leningrad). Nejprve to bylo s Messerschmittem Bf 109 a pak se přeškolil na Focke-Wulf 190. Sloužil také ve speciální operační jednotce JV 44, které velel Adolf Galland. Po roce bojového nasazení na východní frontě se vrátil do Německa jako letecký instruktor. Brzy ho přeložili zase do Ruska a v roce 1945 se stal velitelem letky. V závěrečných fázích války létal také s prvním proudovým letounem na světě, Me-262. Válku skončil se 42 sestřely z více než 200 misí. Během posledních chaotických měsíců války zajali Norberta Spojenci.

Emperor of the Seas
Genghis Khan built a formidable land empire, but he never crossed the sea.
Yet by the time his grandson Kublai Khan had defeated the last vestiges of the Song empire and established the Yuan dynasty in 1279, the Mongols controlled the most powerful navy in the world. How did a nomad come to conquer China and master the sea? Based on ten years of research and a lifetime of immersion in Mongol culture and tradition, Emperor of the Seas brings this little-known story vibrantly to life. Kublai Khan is one of history’s most fascinating characters.
He brought Islamic mathematicians to his court, where they invented modern cartography and celestial measurement. He transformed the world’s largest land mass into a unified, diverse and economically progressive empire, introducing paper money. And, after bitter early setbacks, he transformed China into an outward looking sea-faring empire.
By the end of his reign, the Chinese were building and supplying remarkable ships to transport men, grain, and weapons over vast distances, of a size and dexterity that would be inconceivable in Europe for hundreds of years. Khan had come to a brilliant realization: control the sea, and you control everything.
Lazar
The snow of the dying century still lay on the edge of the dark forest when Lajos von Lázár, the translucent child with water-blue eyes, first glimpsed the man he would believe to be his father for his whole life and beyond.
Lajos von Lázár is brought into this world with the dawn of the new century, and his birth is both a miracle and a curse, his true patrimony a secret he will never know. The Lázárs have ruled their Hungarian lands for generations. In their ancient castle by the edge of a dark forest that compels all who enter it to madness, they succumb to every vice and live only to satiate their desires. But the old order is crumbling, and the days of the Hapsburg Monarchy are numbered.
When Lajos inherits, they at last have a baron who can reignite the old splendours, but not even his abilities are proof against the ravages of war and occupation. It will fall to his children - a boy who talks to shadows and a girl who eschews her blue blood - to find a way to stand against oppression and take the first faltering steps towards freedom.

Chinese Propaganda Posters. 45th Ed.
With his smooth, warm, ruddy face which radiated light in all directions, Chairman Mao Zedong was a fixture in Chinese propaganda posters produced between the birth of the People’s Republic in 1949 and the early 1980s.
Chairman Mao, portrayed as a stoic superhero (aka the Great Teacher, the Great Leader, the Great Helmsman, the Supreme Commander), appeared in all kinds of situations (inspecting factories, smoking a cigarette with peasant workers, standing by the Yangzi River in a bathrobe, presiding over the bow of a ship, or floating over a sea of red flags), flanked by strong, healthy, ageless men and “masculinized” women and children wearing baggy, sexless, drab clothing. The goal of each poster was to show the Chinese people what sort of behavior was considered morally correct and how great the future of Communist China would be if everyone followed the same path toward utopia by uniting together.
This book brings together a selection of colorful propaganda artworks and cultural artifacts of Chinese propaganda posters, many of which are now extremely rare.
Poznaj svoje EMÓCIE a rozprávaj sa s nimi
Kniha učí čitateľa premeniť svoje negatívne emócie na emócie pozitívne. Učí sebariadeniu emócii. Robí tak pomocou brilantného systému dialógov. Učí čitateľa viesť vnútorný dialóg tak, že vytvára jasný algoritmus, ktorý negatívnu emóciu zoslabuje, pozitívnu posilňuje a človek si vytvára nové myšlienkové „okuliare“. Čitateľ si vytvorí nový „automatický vnútorný hlas“. Ak človek číta desiatky dialógov, mozog si vytvorí nové frázy, nový tón, nový spôsob reakcie na seba, nový štýl argumentácie. To je presne ten návyk, ktorý človek potrebuje, aby zvládal úzkosti, reguloval hnev, posilnil sebavedomie, a zlepšil sebaprijatie. Toto je extrémne účinné a učí čitateľa priamo, názorne, opakovane a to je presne to, čo ľuďom chýba v ich vlastnej hlave.
