Kniha života
Kniha života Terezie z Avily je jedním z nejkrásnějších svědectví o lásce Boží a lidské touze po Boží blízkosti. Terezie v ní popisuje svou vnitřní duchovní zkušenost – vášnivé hledání Boha i cestu modlitby, na kterou se vydala. ***** Velká reformátorka karmelitánského řádu je příkladem žité rovnováhy mezi činností a kontemplací, mezi službou druhým a rozvíjením svého vnitřního života. Byla mystičkou i zručnou organizátorkou, „bláznem Božím“ i vnímavou psychoterapeutkou, kajícnicí i ženou užívající si života. Uměla se odevzdávat božskému tajemství i naplno prožívat vztahy k lidem kolem sebe.
I když od sepsání Knihy života uplynulo pět století, je dodnes inspirativní svým smyslem pro realitu a intimním vztahem ke Kristu. Karmelitánské nakladatelství vydává slavnou autobiografii v novém, úplném vydání a s úvodní studií karmelitána P. Pavla Poly.

Mist and Malice
A small-town PI is drawn into a killer conspiracy in a breathtaking novel of suspense by the New York Times bestselling author of the Anthony Award–nominated These Toxic Things. Private investigator Sonny Rush, the newest resident of Haven, California, knows that this fogbound coastal hamlet is every bit as dangerous as her hometown of Los Angeles. And when teenager and repeat runaway Honor Butler shows up at Sonny’s door with terror in her eyes, Sonny is immediately pulled into a new case that lands close to home. Desperate, hungry, and in need of someone she can trust, Honor tells Sonny a horrifying story about where she’s been—and what she’s been forced to do. Then, hours later, the forest near Sonny’s cottage yields the remains of a missing day laborer, a man whose wife has been searching for answers for months. Soon, coincidence sharpens into conspiracy. As Sonny digs deeper, the threads of these cases twist together into something horrifying: a ruthless network preying on the vulnerable, protected by the very people meant to uphold the law. With every step closer to revealing Haven’s corruption, Sonny risks pulling the lives of her loved ones into the cross fire—and exposing the shadows of her own past. Because in this town, loyalty can be fatal, and survival means deciding who you’re willing to betray.
Svádění panny
Narodil se, aby se stal rytířem. Já jsem urozená dáma. Jsme dokonalý pár – jenže osud má jiné plány…
MARIANA
Nejkrásnější panna v zemi? Raději bych byla známá jako nejlepší šermířka nebo jezdkyně. Na druhou stranu má nesporné výhody udržet své schopnosti v tajnosti – stejně jako vzácné dědictví měňavky. Obzvlášť teď, když musím přelstít nejkrutějšího a nejnemilosrdnějšího muže na světě. Kvůli tomu se vydávám do nejbezprávnějšího kouta země s nadějí, že najdu Robina Hooda. Ale když se z útočiště, na které jsem spoléhala, vyklube zrada, nacházím nepravděpodobného spojence v nejpřitažlivějším mnichovi široko daleko…
TUCK
Jako třetí syn venkovského šlechtice jsem neměl na výběr a musel jsem vstoupit do kláštera. Jíst, modlit se, a znova to opakovat – taková byla má budoucnost, a upřímně, nebyla nic moc. Za pár dní mám složit sliby a učinit to oficiálním. Já, lví měňavec, mám žít v chudobě, poslušnosti a cudnosti? Život se stane zajímavějším, když začnu pomáhat Robynne Hoodové… a pořádně nabere obrátky, když do našeho kláštera přijde krásná a tajemná šlechtična hledající útočiště. Jsem její jedinou nadějí, ale získat šťastný konec by chtělo zázrak. Budu se muset spokojit s tím, že ji ochráním před chamtivými a bezohlednými měňavci, kteří plánují svrhnout monarchii – pokud mi to vůbec dovolí. Přesto jsem byl vždycky snílek a nejsem připraven vzdát se naděje, lásky ani šance naplnit svůj pravý osud.
Zkrocení psance
Na psance se dneska prostě nedá spolehnout...
Jsem Willa Scarletová a máma mě učila, abych se nikdy nespoléhala na muže. Příkladem budiž moje tajná mise, jejímž cílem bylo ochránit truhlu plnou drahocenného pokladu před princem Janem. Když mi psanci ze Sherwoodského lesa nepomůžou, jsou všechny mé pečlivě připravené plány v troskách. A za všechno může jeden urostlý, nesnesitelný zbojník, který má na mě spadeno. Muži!
Jsem Malý John, medvědí měňavec, a mohu vás ujistit, že na mně není nic malého. Navíc mám pořádnou dávku tvrdohlavosti a problém s lidmi. Se svým samotářským životem v lese jsem byl navýsost spokojen, dokud se neobjevila Willa Scarletová. Teď chci být od té jízlivé zrzky s přehnaným sebevědomím co nejdál. Čím víc, tím líp.
Společnou máme s Wilou jen jiskřivou chemii, nelítostné nepřátele a odpovědnost za poklad, který je cennější, než kdokoli z nás tuší. Než se nadějeme, jsme na útěku, uprostřed problémů a zamilovaní, i když si to ani jeden z nás nechce přiznat. Nemůžeme se však skrývat věčně a brzo musím učinit těžká rozhodnutí. Mám se řídit srdcem, nebo hlavou? A kde leží má věrnost? U Willy, nebo u měňavců ze Sherwoodského lesa?

The Butcher's Daughter
An eerie and evocative Victorian-set horror thriller about how a well-meaning butcher’s daughter from London’s Whitechapel grew up to become the baker who stuffed her pies with the flesh of Sweeney Todd’s victims. Perfect for fans of Clare Whitfield, Jess Kidd and Ambrose Parry. “You want to know the true tale of the wicked woman, the murdering monster, what baked the pies that she filled with the bits of her victims? The talk of London Town. I will tell you what you want to know, if it be the last that I do tell. And it may well be.”Enclosed herewith: the hitherto untold story of Mrs. Lovett, Sweeney Todd’s infamous partner in crime—a bloodcurdling correspondence of profound horror and intrigue. London, England, 1887: At the abandoned apartment of a missing young woman, a dossier of evidence is collected and sent to the Chief Inspector of the London Police for review. It contains a curious correspondence between an inquisitive journalist, Miss Emily Gibson, and the woman Gibson thinks may be the infamous Mrs. Lovett—Sweeney Todd’s accomplice, who baked men into pies and sold them in her pie shop on Fleet Street. Rumours have swirled about Mrs. Lovett since the disappearance of hundreds of unwitting men decades ago—but is it actually Lovett, even if the suspected woman swears against it? As the woman relays the harrowing account of her life—from her upbringing on Butcher’s Row in the unruly and perilous streets of Victorian London to her daring escape from a mad doctor—the correspondence unlocks an intricate mystery that brings Miss Gibson closer to the truth, even as that truth may cost her dearly.

Liar's Kingdom
"The 2020 election was a total FRAUD!" "I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally." "There is NO WAY Biden got 80,000,000 votes!!!" These and other lies by Donald Trump sparked a historic insurrection to topple US democracy and undermined the public's faith in elections. The Trump administration's deceit has enabled the use of law enforcement and the military against the people, the unlawful deportation of immigrants, and the disregard of international rules meant to promote a civilized and peaceful world. Other politicians, inspired by the success of the political lie, have flooded the public square with falsehoods of their own. As Andrew Weissmann reveals, our vulnerability to politicians' lies stems from a flaw in America's legal system - one that can be fixed. But it will take courage, creativity, and a willingness to look to other countries, including Brazil, France, Germany, and the UK, that have already confronted this crisis. A slim, elegant treatise, Liar's Kingdom is a playbook for stopping politicians like Trump from holding office in the future - and for saving democracy. We are entitled to more from our governments, and Weissmann shows us how we can get it.

Ironwood
Sworn to protect a scenic island meant to be far from the evils of the mainland, Detective Sergeant Stilwell can feel danger closing in.
Detective Sergeant Stilwell knows that his posting on Catalina Island is no paradise, but to most residents, it seems blissfully separated-by twenty-two miles of ocean-from the troubles of Los Angeles County. But now a threat is coming to his safe haven.
Acting on a tip from a confidential informant, Stilwell and his deputies watch a plane land in the middle of the night at the Airport in the Sky, a remote airstrip in the mountains. A duffel bag of drugs is dropped and the deputies move in, but things quickly go sideways.
While Stilwell chases the fleeing pickup man into the mountainside brush, shots are fired on the runway and the plane flies off.
An internal inquiry follows, putting Stilwell on the bench until he is cleared of responsibility for the disastrous operation. But he is determined to find out who brought deadly violence to his island, and begins his own secret investigation into the drug deal gone wrong.
While under orders to remain in the sheriff's substation, he finds in the lost and found a valuable backpack that was never claimed. He traces it to a woman who disappeared while hiking on the island four years ago.
But then why was the pack only turned in two months back? Now thoroughly intrigued, he follows the mystery all the way to the LAPD's Open-Unsolved Unit and Detective Renee Ballard.
Stilwell and Ballard work the case from both sides of the channel, and soon realize they are on the trail of a criminal who revels in taunting the authorities. Meanwhile, frustrated at being shut out of an investigation on his own island, Stilwell risks his already shaky standing in the department to pursue a case whose reach is wider than he ever imagine.
