The Turing Protocol
Humanity's best kept secret may be its best hope for survival.
In the midst of World War Two, Enigma codebreaker Alan Turing finds himself on the brink of a discovery that will change the world: a way to send a message back into the recent past. But when his invention successfully averts disaster on D-Day, the danger it poses in the wrong hands becomes terrifyingly clear. As Turing's enemies close in, only one decision is possible: Nautilus must be kept hidden from the world, safe in the care of the only person he can trust.
Seventy-five years later, Annabelle McIntosh's life is upended when she learns she will become the latest custodian of the greatest secret of the modern age - Turing's Nautilus machine. Following in her family's footsteps, and bound by Turing's strict principles governing the use of his creation, Annabelle is soon faced with the same impossible choices. Nautilus has the power to prevent catastrophe, but the wrong decision could have devastating consequences.
When the stakes are at their highest, will using the machine save the world - or destroy it?

Ticho medzi slovami
Každý deň stretávame mnoho ľudí. Zažívame s nimi mnoho malých príbehov. Nenápadných. Väčšinu z nich si ani nevšimneme. Rozhovor starších ľudí pred panelákom, ďakovné gesto šoféra autobusu, nešťastného človeka v električke v ruke s listom od manželky…
Táto kniha je zbierkou skutočných príbehov zo života. Takých, aké sa dejú každému z nás. Sú to drobné okamihy radosti, dojatia, ľudskosti, prekvapenia. Možno v nich spoznáte seba, svoje deti, susedov, kolegov alebo celkom neznámych ľudí, ktorých ste stretli iba na niekoľko sekúnd.
Pretože život sa neskladá len z veľkých udalostí. Najväčšie príbehy sa často skrývajú v tých malých, „obyčajných“ chvíľach.
Viktor
Básnická kniha Viktor je v jistém slova smyslu sebevražedná – Kamil Bouška v ní plnou vahou svého autorského já masakruje obraz básníka jako empatické niterné bytosti a ušlechtilého komentátora světa. Potvrzuje tím příslušnost k cechu básníků prokletých. Viktor jako by se zrodil mezi stránkami Bouškovy všeobjímající trilogie Dokumenty a představoval jediný myslitelný způsob, jak na ni navázat. Je, a zároveň není jejím protipólem. Bouškova vášnivá, a přitom promyšlená básnická polemika se světem i se sebou samým pokračuje, riskantně, jakýmikoliv prostředky, do krajnosti.
Sharpe’s Storm
If any man can do the impossible it’s Richard Sharpe …
The year is 1813. France is a battlefield, and winter shows no mercy. Amidst brutal conditions, Major Richard Sharpe finds himself saddled with an unexpected burden: Rear-Admiral Sir Joel Chase, dispatched by the Admiralty with sealed orders, unshakable confidence, and a frankly terrifying enthusiasm for combat.
Sharpe’s mission from Wellington is clear, yet anything but simple: keep Sir Joel alive.
Sir Joel could hold the key to defeating Napoleon once and for all. But to pull off his audacious plan, he needs someone who knows how to fight dirty, think fast, and survive the impossible.
He needs Sharpe …
Sleep
A family secret. A new love. The chance to start again.
Margaret's childhood is one of Saturday morning pancakes and sunlit swimming pools behind white picket fences. Then, one fateful summer, everything changes. A line is crossed and the simple pleasures of girlhood slip away.
Twenty-five years later, Margaret is newly divorced with two young daughters of her own. She's starting over while discovering the pleasures of a new boyfriend. But, returning to the family home at her mother's beckoning, she finds herself swept up in the unspoken truth of that long ago summer. She must now reckon with what binds the past to the present, one generation to the next, and safety to the freedom we most desire.
A must-read novel of the summer in Sunday Times Style, Elle and Good Housekeeping.
Crime and Punishment
HarperCollins is proud to present our range of timeless literary classics.
'Do you understand, sir, do you understand what it means when you have absolutely nowhere to turn?'
Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov – an impoverished student drop-out and amateur philosopher – callously murders a pawnbroker in the slums of St Petersburg. Pursued by the law and his own ravaged conscience, Dostoyevsky’s iconic anti-hero spirals into crisis as the noose tightens, and everything he thought he knew about morality and sin is corrupted by his hideous act of violence.
In this psychological masterpiece of good and evil, Dostoyevsky questions what murder does to the soul and whether redemption is possible. One of the great works of world literature, Crime and Punishment is an epic of human nature, guilt and salvation.

The Edge of Space-Time
In her highly acclaimed debut, distinguished cosmologist and particle physicist Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein shared with her audience an abiding sense of wonder at the cosmos, while imagining a world without the entrenched injustice that plagues her field. Now, in The Edge of Space-Time, she embraces that cosmic wonder, taking readers on a mind-altering journey to the boundaries of the universe, inviting us to spend time at the edge of what we know about space-time and about ourselves.
Guided by her conviction that for humanity to go forward we must know our cosmic past, Prescod-Weinstein renders accessible some of the most abstract concepts of theoretical physics and draws on poetry and popular culture—from Queen Latifah to Lewis Carroll to Big K.R.I.T. to Sun Ra and Star Trek— to tell fascinating stories about the fundamental quantum nature of space-time and everything inside of it. Here we meet the quantum cat that is both dead and alive, learn the difference between dark matter and dark energy, explore the inner workings of black holes, investigate the possibility of a unified theory of quantum gravity, and map out the meeting place of the unimaginably vast with the confoundingly small, following our guide out to the far reaches of the particle horizon and down to the tiniest (and queerest) neutrino. Prescod-Weinstein shows us how spending time with the cosmos is a vital human activity that enriches all our lives. Along the way, she calls on us to resist colonial approaches to space exploration and instead imagine a better path forward in our pursuit of humanity's undeniable connection with the stars.
Through Prescod-Weinstein's clear-eyed and unique perspective, and informed by her deep knowledge of post-colonial history and Black feminist thought, The Edge of Space-Time argues that physics is an essential way for everyone to look at the universe and presents a compelling case that "the edge" is a powerful vantage point from which to see the big picture.

Řekni ano tomu pravému - Wedding Dreams 3
Romantika je pro začátečníky. To je Willowino motto. Pracuje sice jako fotografka ve svatební agentuře, ale to neznamená, že musí věřit ve velkou osudovou lásku. Proto má pro svůj románek s atraktivním Sethem jen jedno pravidlo: Sex ano, líbání zakázáno. Prostě striktní přátelství s výhodami! A navíc je to přece sen všech mužů, nebo ne?! Zábava bez závazků a povinností… Ale Seth není jako ostatní muži. Je upřímný, věrný a zároveň pekelně sexy. Chce Willow buď celou... nebo vůbec.
