Najväčšia hra
Sedem vstupeniek. Ostrov snov. Jedinečná príležitosť.
Vitajte v Najväčšej hre miliardárky Avery Grambsovej a štyroch bratov Hawthornovcov, ktorých rodinný majetok zdedila. Zlatú vstupenku do nej získa sedem hráčov a tí majú možnosť dosiahnuť nielen slávu, ale aj bohatstvo, preto sú pre výhru ochotní urobiť čokoľvek.
Niektorých zlákal prísľub peňazí, iných vidina moci. A ďalší majú vlastné dôvody. Každý však ukrýva tajomstvá. V tejto hre najdôležitejšiu úlohu zohráva Grayson Hawthorne. Napätie stúpa a náročné úlohy skúšajú fyzické, psychické aj emocionálne hranice hráčov. Čoskoro sa však ukáže, že nie každý dodržiava pravidlá.
Preklad z anglického originálu The Grandest Game (Little, Brown and Company is a division of Hachette Book Group, New York, 2024) preložila Andrea Vargovčíková.

That's the plan anyway...

A zárda gyermekei - Lottie Parker 15.
Lottie Parker felügyelő és Boyd őrmester szabadságon van. Connemarában vendégeskednek a férfi nővérénél, aki az esküvőjére készül. A nagy sürgés-forgásból elmenekülve Lottie a környéken sétálgat, amikor egy bungalónál villogó rendőrautókat lát. Természetesen odamegy, hogy megtudja, mi történt. Mint kiderült, egy összeégett női holttestet találtak a fürdőkádban.
Mooney őrmester, bár nem szívesen, emberhiány miatt elfogadja Lottie segítségét. Az áldozatnak nincs hozzátartozója, kislányként a Magdolna nővérek zárdában nevelkedett. Lottie a gondnoktól megtudja, hogy egy fiatal rádiós újságírónő, Imelda járt ott, a zárdáról készülő műsorához gyűjtött anyagot, majd eltűnt.
A nyomozás során szörnyű dolgok derülnek ki. Az apácák rabszolgákként dolgoztatták a lányokat a mosodában, kegyetlenül bántak velük, a legkisebb kihágást is megtorolták, a kínzásba belehalt gyerekek holttestét pedig eltüntették.
Majd újabb gyilkosság történik…
A háromgyerekes Lottie az érzéseit kikapcsolva, vérbeli profiként mindent megtesz, hogy Mooney őrmesterrel mielőbb felgöngyölítsék az ügyet.
Wild Darling
Enemies. Team-mates.
Something dangerously close to more … Parker Darling is ready to take center ice now that his older brothers have left to play hockey in college. He shows up to the first practice ready to be team captain of the Ransom Devils, only to find a new coach at the rink—one who already hates Parker for a dumb mistake he made years ago. A mistake he made with the help of Coach Foster's daughter, Mackenzie.
Kenzie Foster loves hockey, too, and she's a ruthless goalie. If only her dad hadn't forbidden her from playing—not that she'd want to be on any team with that arrogant jerk Parker Darling. She can't believe she's stuck on the bench at a new school, watching the Devils struggle to win without the force of all three Darling brothers.
Parker hates losing, and when the Devils' star goalie gets injured, he knows he has to step up and lead the team back to greatness. Kenzie, meanwhile, sees a wide-open net and an unused uniform just waiting to prove her dad wrong. They'll need to work together to reach their goals—without getting too close to making another big mistake.
Centrists of the World Unite!
We live in an age of extremes: populist leaders are setting the agenda, autocracies are on the march, and the liberal establishment is a bewildered blob, devoid of new ideas or fresh solutions. Having once powered progress in the form of democracy, mass welfare and defeating totalitarianism, liberals have the power to save the world again – but only if they rediscover the lost genius of their creed.
Guiding us skilfully and entertainingly through the intellectual, cultural and political histories of liberalism, this book lays out a centrist agenda for today’s problems. It reminds us of the dynamism and fixed principles that have shaped the successes of liberalism and warns us against splitting into sub-groups that fail to grapple with the common good. Wooldridge proposes that, as well as reviving social mobility, liberals today need to be much more critical of big business – particularly if it makes money by manipulating choices and spreading misinformation – and rethink the laissez-faireapproach to immigration, social disorder, and substance abuse.
A powerful call to action, Centrists of the World Unite! shows us how liberals of all parties and none can come together in defending the values of liberal civilization from enemies without and within.

Hooked
Eriko really wouldn't mind being savaged, if it was her best friend doing the savaging … Eriko's life appears perfect – devoted parents, spotless apartment and a job in the seafood division of one of Japan's largest trading companies. Her latest project, to reintroduce the controversial Nile perch fish into the Japanese market, is characteristically ambitious.
But beneath her flawless surface she is wracked by loneliness. Eriko becomes fascinated with a popular blog written by a housewife, Shoko. Shoko’s posts about eating convenience store food and her untidy home are the opposite of the typical Japanese housewife’s manicured lifestyle.
When Eriko tracks Shoko down at her favourite restaurant and befriends her, Shoko is at first charmed by her new companion. But as Eriko’s obsession with Shoko deepens, her increasingly possessive behaviour starts to raise suspicion. As Eriko’s carefully laid plans begin to unravel, how far will she go to hold on to the best friend that she’s ever had?
Beautifully translated by Polly Barton, Hooked is a thrilling and unsettling story of the line between friendship and dangerous obsession.
A delicious exploration of food, loneliness and womanhood in contemporary Japan, Hooked brings together all the ingredients for which Asako Yuzuki is so adored.

Sisters, Saints and Sibyls
Nan Goldin's deeply personal exploration of female trauma and resistance.
Sisters, Saints and Sibyls is a tribute 'to all rebellious women struggling to survive in society.' Focusing on the tragic life of her sister, Barbara, Nan Goldin weaves together a tapestry out of medical records, family photographs and mythical allusions to Saint Barbara to compose a haunting meditation on the mistreatment of female mental health in the twentieth century. Barbara's story is intertwined with Goldin's own descent into, and emergence from, addiction, shining a brutal light on the realities of trauma, abuse and mental illness.
One of Nan Goldin's most important series, this timely publication is set to align with a major career retrospective opening at the Grand Palais, Paris, in March 2026.
Hannaróza
Hanna élete darabokra hullik, amikor ráébred: nincs egyedül a testében. Ott él benne valaki más is, akit Rózának hívnak. Kettejük között szakadék tátong, míg Róza maga a perzselő tűz, addig Hanna a szenvedély és félelem határán egyensúlyoz.
Amikor megismernek egy férfit, aki mindkettőjük szívét elrabolja, kénytelenek szövetséget kötni egymással. De a vágy hamar veszéllyé, a bizalom árulássá válik, egy haláleset pedig feltépve a múlt sebeit mindent megváltoztat. Ahogy a nyomozásuk feltárja a sötét titkokat, a határ a valóság és az őrület között egyre inkább elmosódik. De vajon túléli a szerelmük a borzalmas igazságot?
Erotikus krimi, ahol a szenvedély és a veszély kéz a kézben jár.
Anselm Kiefer - Becoming the Ocean

From his early evocative landscapes of postwar Europe to his later, monumental canvases on themes of destruction and regeneration, Kiefer’s oeuvre challenges our understanding of history and memory. Catalogue highlights include previously unpublished artist writings, lavish illustrations and contributions by writers who inspired Kiefer’s famously literary art.

Why We’re Getting Poorer
An insider's guide to our broken economy and how it fails to serve us.
Did you know that while we think of money as notes issued by the government, the truth is that the overwhelming majority of money today is credit created by private banks?
Did you know that the reason housing keeps getting less accessible is because we haven't found a way to separate houses from land in our policies?
And did you know that far from globalisation being a mystical force, certain countries and currencies have dominated the way it has played out - to their own advantage?
Whilst economics is at the heart of the society we live in, governing so many functions from our taxes to where we live to the price of our shopping, few of us have a strong grasp on the subject. This book is here to help.
Why We're Getting Poorer delves into the key topics in economics - money, globalisation, inequality, climate change and growth - showing that what we think we know about these things is wrong, and teaching us what we really need to know. Deciphering the jargon and complexity of economic thinking, with examples ranging from the Simpsons to the German football league to The Inbetweeners, Cahal Moran shows us why our economy set us up to fail, and offers suggestions for how we can make positive changes. Written by an award-winning economist and the YouTuber responsible for 'Unlearning Economics', Why We're Getting Poorer is a thrilling, iconoclastic guide to how the world really works.
How to Read Minds
What is true empathy?
The classic stereotype of autistic people is that they can’t empathise, that they’re highly intellectual but find it difficult to connect. As an autistic psychotherapist who empathises for a living, Aimee Cliff knew that this wasn’t right. Empathy is something you do, not something you are – meaning it’s something we can all get better at, if we choose to practise.
Drawing on the latest scientific research, her clinical experience and interviews with a wide range of neurodivergent people, Cliff examines how empathy works in the brain and body, and lays out five pillars that allow anyone to practise empathy. She finds that empathy is humble, empathy is embodied, empathy is amoral, empathy is radical, and empathy is work.
How to Read Minds offers a new idea of empathy with a more radical and expansive definition. For real empathy fights against constrictive stereotypes and dares to imagine something new. It has the potential to connect and liberate humans across our differences.
This wise, humane and quietly life-changing book considers how to understand each other, how to care for and love each other, in a timeless examination of questions that affect us all.

But they must find a way to work together if they are going to make it through the deadly trials alive.
