Kult WE
Nahliadnite do zákulisia firmy WeWork v podaní novinárov, ktorí odhalili škandalózne praktiky jeho bezškrupulózneho zakladateľa trpiaceho grandióznym sebaklamom.
Adam Neumann sa do New Yorku presťahoval v roku 2001 potom, ako odslúžil päť zo siedmich rokov povinnej vojenskej služby v izraelskom námorníctve. O pätnásť rokov neskôr sa ocitol v pozícii sympatického riaditeľa spoločnosti s hodnotou 47 miliárd dolárov. Takmer dvojmetrový mladík s dlhými vlasmi a ústami plnými rečí, že život má byť prechádzka ružovou záhradou, bol zosobnením predstáv o podnikateľovi zo Silicon Valley. Ponúkal takmer hypnotizujúcu víziu: radikálnu zmenu pracovného prostredia šitú na mieru generácii mileniálov. Nazval ju WeWork.
Neumannove ambície podporované miliardami dolárov od investorov rástli do neba. WeWork už nemal byť len poskytovateľom kancelárskych priestorov, mal stavať školy, budovať mestá či kolonizovať Mars. Spoločnosť v honbe za víziou svojho zakladateľa míňala peniaze rýchlejšie, než ich dokázala nadobudnúť. Šéf firmy brázdil celú zemeguľu na súkromnom lietadle v marihuanovom opare a snažil sa získavať ďalší kapitál, no koncom roka 2019, bezprostredne pred vstupom na burzu, sa mu všetko rozpadlo pod rukami. Neumanna vyhnali z vlastnej firmy, no jeho status miliardára tým nijako neutrpel.
Nevšedný rast firmy WeWork prilákal najrôznejšie postavy finančného systému, ochotné ignorovať zjavné riziká. Jej náhly prepad však začal nadobúdať podobné kontúry ako v prípade neslávne známej firmy Theranos. Ako je možné, že sa niektoré z najväčších bánk a množstvo renomovaných investorov dokázalo nadchnúť pre takýto zjavný podfuk? A čo to znamená pre budúcnosť startupov v Silicon Valley? Odpoveď na tieto a ďalšie otázky o vzostupe a páde firmy WeWork hľadajú reportéri denníka Wall Street Journal Eliot Brown a jeho kolegyňa Maureen Farrell.

Things We Left Behind
THE ALL NEW NOVEL FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO TIKTOK SENSATION THINGS WE NEVER GOT OVER AND 2023'S THINGS WE HIDE FROM THE LIGHT.
There was only one woman who could set me free. But I would rather set myself on fire than ask Sloane Walton for anything. Lucian Rollins is a lean, mean vengeance-seeking mogul.
On a quest to erase his father's mark on the family name, he spends every waking minute pulling strings and building an indestructible empire. The more money and power he amasses, the safer he is from threats. Except when it comes to the feisty small-town librarian that keeps him up at night .
. . Sloane Walton is a spitfire determined to carry on her father's quest for justice.
She'll do that just as soon as she figures out exactly what the man she hates did to - or for - her family. Bonded by an old, dark secret from the past and the dislike they now share for each other, Sloane trusts Lucian about as far as she can throw his designer-suited body. When bickering accidentally turns to foreplay, these two find themselves not quite regretting their steamy one-night stand.
Once those flames are fanned, it seems impossible to put them out again. But with Sloane ready to start a family and Lucian refusing to even consider the idea of marriage and kids, these enemies-to-lovers are stuck at an impasse. Broken men break women.
It's what Lucian believes, what he's witnessed, and he's not going to take that chance with Sloane. He'd rather live a life of solitude than put her in danger. But he learns the hard way that leaving her means leaving her unprotected from other threats.
It's the second time he's ruthlessly cut her out of his life. There's no way she's going to give him a third chance. He's just going to have to make one for himself.

The real story of Nico is one of determination, self-destruction and belief in one's artistic vision, at any cost . . .
You Are Beautiful and You Are Alone is an empowering reappraisal of an underappreciated icon.

Things We Never Got Over
Grumpy, small-town barber + hopelessly romantic runaway bride = great big bust ups, all the tension and lots of steamy encounters!
Escaping her seemingly perfect wedding, Naomi Witt arrives in rough-around-the-edges Knockemout, Virginia, running to the rescue of her estranged twin, Tina.
Too bad for Naomi her evil twin hasn't changed at all. After helping herself to Naomi's car and cash, Tina leaves her with something unexpected: the 11-year-old niece she didn't know she had. Now she's stuck in town with no job, no plan, no home and a whole lot of extra responsibility.
There's a reason local barber Knox doesn't do complications or high-maintenance women, especially not the romantic ones. But since Naomi's life imploded right in front of him, the least he can do is help her out of her jam. And just as soon as she stops getting into trouble, he can leave her alone and get back to his peaceful, solitary life.
At least that's the plan, until their lives begin to entwine in ways they never imagined . . .
We Are Bellingcat
'John le Carre demystified the intelligence services; Higgins has demystified intelligence gathering itself' Financial Times
'Uplifting . . . Riveting . . . What will fire people through these pages, gripped, is the focused, and extraordinary investigations that Bellingcat runs . . . Each runs as if the concluding chapter of a Holmesian whodunit' Telegraph
'We Are Bellingcat is Higgins's gripping account of how he reinvented reporting for the internet age . . . A manifesto for optimism in a dark age' Luke Harding, Observer
How did a collective of self-taught internet sleuths end up solving some of the biggest crimes of our time?
Bellingcat, the home-grown investigative unit, is redefining the way we think about news, politics and the digital future. Here, their founder - a high-school dropout on a kitchen laptop - tells the story of how they created a whole new category of information-gathering, galvanising citizen journalists across the globe to expose war crimes and pick apart disinformation, using just their computers.
From the downing of Malaysia Flight 17 over the Ukraine to the sourcing of weapons in the Syrian Civil War and the identification of the Salisbury poisoners, We Are Bellingcat digs deep into some of Bellingcat's most successful investigations. It explores the most cutting-edge tools for analysing data, from virtual-reality software that can build photorealistic 3D models of a crime scene, to apps that can identify exactly what time of day a photograph was taken.

But when the teachers change up the casting, a good-natured rivalry turns ugly, and the plays spill dangerously over into life.When tragedy strikes, one of the seven friends is found dead.

Before We Say Goodbye
The million-copy bestselling series
Toshikazu Kawaguchi’s poignant Before we say goodbye, translated from Japanese by Geoffrey Trousselot, explores the age-old question: what would you do if you could travel back in time? More importantly, who would you want to meet, maybe for one last time?
The regulars at the magical Cafe Funiculi Funicula are well acquainted with its famous legend and extraordinary, secret menu time travel offering. Many patrons have reunited with old flames, made amends with estranged family, and visited loved ones. But the journey is not without risks and there are rules to follow. Travellers must have visited the cafe previously and most importantly, must return to the present in the time it takes for their coffee to go cold.
In the tradition of Toshikazu Kawaguchi’s sensational Before the Coffee Gets Cold series, readers will once again be introduced to a new set of visitors:
The husband with something important left to say
The woman who couldn’t bid her dog farewell
The woman who couldn’t answer a proposal
The daughter who drove her father away . . .
In the hauntingly beautiful Before we say goodbye, Kawaguchi invites us to join his characters as they embark on a journey to revisit one crucial moment in time.
