Shavonne začíná podezírat svého souseda Lewellyna, že je tajemný stalker, který ho sleduje a zanechává mu podivné vzkazy. Jasné důkazy však chybí – je to opravdu on, nebo se Shavonne mýlí? Mezitím v South Bunchi pokračuje série brutálních vražd, které má pravděpodobně na svědomí okouzlující Lewellyn. Záhadné dopisy, nečekaná vyznání a stále silnější přitažlivost mezi oběma muži však všechno ještě víc komplikují. Může být člověk zároveň vrahem... a jediným, kdo vás skutečně miluje?

The Blood We Crave Part One
From Monty Jay comes a haunting dark romance where obsession blurs into love, and darkness recognises its own.
Death marked her long before she understood what it meant. Shaped by a past she's kept buried, she's spent her life hiding the truth of what lives inside her-something twisted, something dangerous.
Something deadly.
Until he sees her.
Thatcher Alexander Pierson is as captivating as he is unsettling-sharp, calculating, and born from a legacy tainted by violence. Beneath his polished exterior lies something far darker, and when their paths collide, an unspoken connection takes hold.
She becomes his fixation.
He becomes her addiction.
But what binds them isn't innocence-it's the darkness they both carry.
When a copycat killer emerges in Ponderosa Springs, the fragile balance they've built begins to crack. As suspicion grows and past actions threaten to catch up with them, they are forced into an uneasy alliance-one that exposes their secrets, their desires, and the truth neither of them can escape.
Because this isn't just about survival.
It's about obsession.
As danger closes in and their connection deepens, the line between love and destruction begins to disappear. And in a town where violence breeds more violence, one question remains-
Can something so dark ever truly be called love?
The Nightingale and the Rose
Oscar Wilde’s jewel-like fairy tales tell of treasure, tragedy and transformation. These five fables are edged with darkness, but gleam with the trademark wisdom of one of Victorian literature’s greatest minds.In the unforgettable ‘The Nightingale and the Rose’, a young student yearns to be loved by his professor’s beautiful daughter, but his quest to capture her heart will come at a terrible cost. In ‘The Happy Prince’, a golden, decorated statue selflessly takes himself apart to gift his jewels to the poor people of the city he overlooks. ‘The Devoted Friend’ powerfully criticizes self-interest and questions what defines true friendship, and ‘The Star-Child’ and ‘The Model Millionaire’ reveal, fantastically, that appearances may not always reflect the truth.This series of pocket-sized paperbacks celebrates the art of the short story and marks Macmillan Collector’s Library’s 10th anniversary. Each contains a curated selection of short stories from a literary giant: Katherine Mansfield, Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allan Poe, Oscar Wilde, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Alice Dunbar Nelson, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Rabindranath Tagore.

Kefír, Acidko, kombucha, sóma
Autor popisuje zázračné účinky kvasených nápojov. Sú veľmi zdravé, a dokonca nám môžu predĺžiť život. Táto kniha vysvetľuje, prečo a ako. Ak uplatníte v praxi tu uvedené rady, rýchlo si posilníte imunitný systém a zlepšíte trávenie i celkové zdravie.
Dozviete sa, prečo sú fermentované potraviny zdravé, ako pôsobia mikroorganizmy a veľa ďalšieho. Veľmi užitočný je prehľad v súčasnosti dostupných produktov a návod, ako zistiť, či sú kvalitné.
Najstarším a najzáhadnejším kvaseným nápojom je sóma, pôvodom z Indie. Dá sa pokladať za zdroj všetkých kvasených nápojov. Jej zloženie bolo prísne tajné a prístupné len vyšším kastám. Tento prastarý recept sa bohužiaľ stratil. Dnes medzi nápoje typu sóma radíme kaukazský kefír.
Hitlerův puč
Na sklonku podzimu je mladá demokracie v Německu ohrožena zvnějšku i zevnitř. Pasivní odpor proti okupaci Porúří Francií a Belgií musel být zlomen, zemi drtí v pevném sevření hyperinflace a politická situace je nestabilní. Hospodářství je na dně, mnoho lidí žije v chudobě a sužují je obavy o budoucnost. Levicoví i pravicoví extrémisté se snaží této dramatické situace využít a uzurpovat si moc.
8. listopadu večer oznamuje Adolf Hitler, vůdce nacionálních socialistů, na akci v mnichovské pivnici Bürgerbräukeller nastolení diktatury v Německu a v Bavorsku. Počítá s podporou pravicově konzervativních elit okolo generálního státního komisaře Gustava von Kahra, bavorského velitele reichswehru Otto von Lossowa a šéfa zemské policie Hanse von Seißera. Tito reální držitelé moci však mají jiné plány a společně s přívrženci v Berlíně připravují svůj státní převrat. Hitler je vlastními stoupenci přinucen k akci a je ovládán strachem, že se převrat, který neznamená nic jiného než odstranění demokracie, odehraje bez něj. Proto se pokouší uchopit moc do svých rukou předčasným a diletantským aktem. Pokus, který vešel do dějin jako Hitlerův puč, žalostně ztroskotává. Zabraňuje však plánovanému státnímu převratu – a proto vyvstává otázka: Zachránil Hitler 8./9. listopadu 1923 nechtěně otřásající se Výmarskou republiku?
Armin Fuhrer ve směsi napínavé historické reportáže a analýzy načrtává vývoj k Hitlerovu puči a události z 8./9. listopadu 1923.

A Little Cloud
Irish modernist writer and author of Ulysses, James Joyce, brings the city and all its characters alive in six affecting, atmospheric stories selected from his iconic 1914 collection Dubliners.Relationships old and new, real and imagined are put to the test in ‘Eveline’ and ‘Araby’. In ‘A Little Cloud’, a young father reflects on his life as he sits in a pub with an old friend fresh from travels abroad. Could he have done any better with his lot? ‘A Painful Case’ sees a discreet and measured affair run its course, resurfacing one evening as a self-righteous memory.This series of pocket-sized paperbacks celebrates the art of the short story and marks Macmillan Collector’s Library’s 10th anniversary. Each contains a curated selection of short stories from a literary giant: Katherine Mansfield, Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allan Poe, Oscar Wilde, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Alice Dunbar Nelson, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Rabindranath Tagore.
Jack and Alice
These astoundingly clever stories were written when Jane Austen was between just eleven and eighteen years old, and deserve to be read and admired alongside her novels.Jack and Alice recounts a raucous masquerade ball and the gossip it provides for months afterwards; Alice, who has had a bit too much to drink, becomes infatuated with the pompous Charles Adams. In The Three Sisters, Mary is determined to be married before her sisters are, even if it means marrying a man she absolutely cannot stand. These stories burst with scandal and absurdity, featuring dramatic deaths, sudden marriage proposals, a prison break, a poisoning, robbery, a shipwreck, and secret affairs.Austen’s wicked sense of humour is fully unleashed here, as she brilliantly skewers romantic, societal and narrative conventions. Her teenage stories are the works of a true genius.This series of pocket-sized paperbacks celebrates the art of the short story and marks Macmillan Collector's Library's 10th anniversary. Each contains a curated selection of short stories from a literary giant: Katherine Mansfield, Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allen Poe, Oscar Wilde, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Alice Dunbar Nelson, F.
