Legendary chef Anthony Bourdain's crude culinary noir classic.
When up-and-coming chef Tommy Pagana settles for a less than glamorous stint at his uncle's failing restaurant in Little Italy, he unwittingly finds himself a partner in big-time crime. Between the chef's smack habit and a murder in the kitchen, Tommy finds that nothing he learned at culinary school has prepared him for what happens next.

An Expert Witness
From the UK's leading forensic scientist and Sunday Times bestselling author of All That Remains and Written in Bone: a gripping exploration of forensic science, told through often shocking real cases to assess its triumphs, failures, and future.
'No scientist communicates better.' Val McDermid, award-winning author of the Detective Karen Pirie series
For over forty years, Professor Dame Sue Black has analysed criminal evidence at the highest level. As the UK's leading forensic scientist, she has stood in court as an expert witness, repeatedly putting her research and reputation on the line, all in the name of justice.
Now in An Expert Witness she puts forensic science itself on trial.
Drawing on shocking real cases and true crime, from historic poisonings to modern sexual offences, Sue Black traces the evolution of forensic science, from early identification methods to more recent breakthroughs such as DNA profiling, Sue's own vein identification research, and the emerging role of artificial intelligence in criminal investigation.
She shows where science has delivered justice, and where failures have led to devastating consequences, including wrongful convictions such as that of Andrew Malkinson, imprisoned for seventeen years for a crime he did not commit.
As she reflects on life serving as an expert witness, Sue looks back at landmark cases to tell the story of forensic science, ask questions for its future, and explain why this book marks the close of a defining chapter in one of the most extraordinary careers in modern forensic science.

In a small New England community, suspicion gathers around a widower believed to be under the spell of a dead woman. Bewitched brings together three of Edith Wharton's most unsettling ghost stories.

Crucible of Light
Focusing on major turning points, individual stories, and key places, from Mecca to Cordoba, from Damascus to Venice, and from Vienna to Istanbul, Drayson tracks the themes that unite us - classical learning preserved in Islamic libraries, the enduring influence of Moorish architecture and design, the food we share, the goods we have traded, and the continuing dialogue between individuals and cultures that has permeated Europe's history and shaped its borders.
It is a history that sweeps across cities and continents, from Spanish patios and palaces to Ottoman-inspired coffee houses in seventeenth-century London to the Mezquita in Cordoba, once a mosque, now a cathedral, the physical embodiment of the ongoing discourse that continues to shape European identity.

Down Old Roads
"This is the E8," my father said. "It runs from London to Moscow."
For a million years people have been travelling throughout Europe, from the mysterious homo antecessor who left his footprints on the coast of England to travellers on the motorways of today. Under every footstep lies an older one, under every paved road a donkey trail or wagon rut, under every footpath the prints of a hunter or his prey.
And yet the long, nation-spanning roads of Europe don't hold a special place in the imaginations and identities of its residents. No classic songs have been written about the E8, the way Americans have written about Route 66. Are Europeans too attached to their own home patch? Or have they too often seen armies marching towards them along those roads?
Eager to answer that question, Mathijs Deen goes in search of the warriors, refugees, bandits, pilgrims, fortune-seekers, conquerors and racers who advanced into history along the roads of Europe. From Boekelo in the Netherlands to Smolensk on the Dnieper, and from the first prehistoric Europeans to the barons who raced the open roads of Europe in the early 20th century, Down Old Roads is both a journey through Europe and a trip through time.
"It's easy to be swept away by Deen's delightful prose" New Statesman on The Boundless River
Translated from the Dutch by Jane Hedley-Prole and Jonathan Reeder
Nagytakarítás
Itt a nyár, és zajlik az Edinburghi Fesztivál. A látogatók épp sorban állnak, hogy bejussanak egy rádióműsor felvételére, amikor szemtanúi lesznek egy koccanásnak, amely erőszakhoz, sőt majdnem gyilkossághoz vezet.
Az eset minden érintett életét felforgatja; a korábban katonaként, rendőrként és magánnyomozóként is dolgozó Jackson Brodie nem több ártatlan kívülállónál – mégis gyanúsítottá válik egy gyilkossági ügyben. Miközben sokasodnak a holttestek, és a különálló történetek szép lassan összefonódnak, a szereplők kapcsolódásai, mint egy matrjoskababa részei, beépülnek egymás életébe. Mindannyian szeretetre, pénzre, megváltásra vagy menekülésre vágynak, ám végső soron az igazi énjükkel szembesülnek.

Szenvedélyből született szimfónia!
Gwen Jackson és Xander Thorne született muzsikusok, nagyon eltérő háttérrel. Xander klasszikus zenével foglalkozó családba született, a fiatalon árvaságra jutott Gwen viszont ösztönös tehetség, aki viszonylag későn kezdett el zenélni.
Gwen egy esküvői fellépésén összefut Xanderrel. A csellista nem emlékszik a lányra, holott egy évig zenéltek közösen egy szimfonikus zenekarban. Gwent viszont ennél is jobban dühíti, hogy a férfi arrogánsan kritizálja az előadásmódját.
Amikor Gwennek felajánlják az első hegedűs posztját, amire Xander titokban évek óta áhítozik, a köztük feszülő ellentét még tovább erősödik.
Ahogy a közös munka során elkezdik felfedezni és beismerni egymás iránti érzelmeiket, egyre nyilvánvalóbbá válik, hogy különleges kapcsolatuknak köszönhetően olyan előadást tudnak létrehozni, ami mindenkit lenyűgöz.
De vajon lassan kibontakozó románcuk képes lesz kibírni a sikerrel járó nyomást?
