Sergeant Neumann and the inmates of Camp 133 are back! Even thousands of miles from the front lines, locked into…
a Canadian prisoner-of-war camp at the base of the Canadian Rockies, death isn't far away. For August Neumann, head of Camp Civil Security and decorated German war hero, this is the reality. Chef Schlipal has been found dead in Mess #3, a knife in his back. Now it's up to Neumann to find out what would drive the men of the camp, brothers-in-arms, to turn on each other. He's learned, of course, that beneath the veneer of duty and honour, the camp is anything but civil. When the trail of clues ends at the edge of the prison yard, Neumann must consider the crime bigger than the camp. Is someone getting out of the prison? If so, can he follow? If he can't, he might have to live with the dishonour of Camp 133.

"This book begins with a history of the detective genre, coextensive with the novel itself, identifying the attitudes and institutions…
needed for the genre to emerge in its mature form around 1880. The theory of the genre is laid out along with its central theme of the getting and deployment of knowledge. Sherlock Holmes, the English Classic stories and their inheritors are examined in light of this theme and the balance of two forms of knowledge used in fictional detection--cool or rational, and warm or emotional. The evolution of the genre formula is driven by changes in the social climate in which it is embedded. These changes explain the decay of the English Classic and its replacement by noir, hardboiled and spy stories, to end in the cul-de-sac of the thriller and the nostalgic Neo-Classic. Possible new forms of the detective story are suggested." -- Provided by publisher

Chas Robertson is driven to steal to survive through a severe drought. His crime is witnessed by a police Aboriginal…
tracker and he is charged. Suddenly he is accused of attempting to murder the same witness. If Chas cannot convince the jury of his innocence he faces time in Darlinghurst Gaol. Or worse! Based on a true story, The Justice Machine examines the motivations of the players in the law game. The Magistrate, the Policeman, the Prosecutor, the Barrister and the Judge all have their own reasons for being there. Hardly any of them are to do with justice. The law and justice are different things it seems. The year is 1882 but this could be any time. Injustice is timeless.

In the two decades between the Second World War and the Great Alaska Earthquake, Anchorage grew by a factor of…
10. Money was, quite literally, washing down the street. The economic boom was so great that all you needed to make a million dollars was a cash register. At the same time Anchorage was one of the few cities in America where organized crime never got a firm foothold. Uptown, downtown, out of town, the locals were clever enough to keep the East Coast families out. Walrus With A Gold Tooth is a fictionalized version of crime in Anchorage over these two decades and a step-by-step history of how the local squeezed out the mob before it ever made it in. And if you know your Anchorage history, you just might be able to determine which characters are actual people whose names have been changed to protect the guilty.

Gerusalemme e in Palestina a lottare per la propria vita, circondati dai nemici. Non sanno di chi possono fidarsi. Non sanno da che parte voltarsi.

Lui ha il Sigillo. E Orla dovrà affrontare la bestia da sola.

cose finora sono state bianche o nere, giuste o sbagliate, ma la sua vita sta per cambiare e d’ora in poi ci saranno sempre sfumature di grigio. Tutto sommato non è niente male come detective. Tifoso sfegatato dei Brooklyn Dodgers, Henry sta per essere ingaggiato da una bella ragazza affinché le ritrovi il padre e il libro contabile di cui questi si stava occupando. Il caso appare alquanto semplice, ma quando un seconda donna richiede i suoi servizi per ritrovare lo stesso libro contabile, Henry comincia sospettare che dietro alla sparizione dell’uomo ci sia qualcosa di grosso, di molto più grande di lui. E ha ragione. Ritrovare l’uomo e il suo libro contabile diventerà ben presto l’ultimo dei suoi problemi perché anche il capo della mafia locale, Tommy “il Coltello” mira a quel libro contabile e, finché non riuscirà a entrarne in possesso, il boss sa di essere vulnerabile, facile preda degli altri capi famiglia. Ma di chi si può fidare Henry? C’è un misterioso quanto sconosciuto benefattore che sembra avere a cuore solo il suo bene. Henry accetterà l’aiuto che gli verrà offerto? Ma soprattutto, ha altra scelta?

Praise for Ernesto Mallo's Needle in a Haystack: "A vivid and compelling picture of a society riven by corruption, social…
breakdown, and casual brutality. A pacy, intense, and thought-provoking read."--Guardian "Martin Cruz Smith and Philip Kerr fans will be rewarded."--Publishers Weekly "A gritty, painful portrait of a dystopian culture spinning further and further out of control. A compelling, blood-stained document of tyranny and brutality told with skill and passion."--Crime Time In the second book in the Superintendent Lascano series, Lascano is drawn into a war between the Buenos Aires chief of police and the Apostles, drug-dealing cops who want to control the city. When the chief of police is murdered, Lascano becomes the Apostles' next target. His only way out of the country is to retrieve the loot from a bungled bank robbery. Ernesto Mallo paints a scathing portrait of Argentina, where the Junta's generals are paraded in court in civilian clothes and treated like mere petty thieves. Corruption and violence continue to rule, but at the center of the novel lies a touching portrayal of two broken men, a cop and a robber, whose humanity is sorely tested by the troubles racking their beloved country. Born in 1948, Ernesto Mallo is a published essayist, newspaper columnist, and playwright. He is a former militant, pursued by the dictatorship as a member of the guerilla movement.

When Rahmat Sulemani reported his girlfriend Banaz missing, it quickly became clear to DCI Caroline Goode that something was very…
wrong. In fact, Banaz had contacted her local police station multiple times before, even listing the names of the men she expected to murder her in a so-called 'honour' killing. Her parents didn't seem worried, but Banaz had already accused them of being part of the plot.DCI Goode's team took on the investigation before they even had proof that a murder had taken place. What emerged was a shocking story of betrayal and a community-wide web of lies, which would take the team from suburban south London to the mountain ranges of Kurdistan, making covert recordings and piecing together cell phone data to finally bring the killers to justice.

'MacLean skilfully weaves together the disparate threads of her plot to create a gripping tale of crime and sedition in an unsettled city' Sunday Times'MacLean's light touch portrait of a hard man with a softer core is what makes these books so memorable' The TimesLondon, 1655, and Cromwell's regime is under threat from all sides. Damian Seeker, Captain of Cromwell's Guard, is all too aware of the danger facing Cromwell. Parliament resents his control of the Army while the Army resents his absolute power. In the east end of London, a group of religious fanatics plots rebellion. In the midst of all this, a stonemason uncovers a perfectly preserved body dressed in the robes of a Dominican friar, bricked up in a wall in the crumbling Black Friars. Ill-informed rumours and speculation abound, but Seeker instantly recognises the dead man. What he must discover is why he met such a hideous end, and what his connection was to the children who have started to disappear from around the city. Unravelling these mysteries is challenging enough, and made still harder by the activities of dissenters at home, Royalist plotters abroad and individuals who are not what they seem...

Seeker must battle to find justice, when an innocent man's life hangs in the balance.'Challenges CJ Sansom for dominion of historical crime' Sunday Times'The best historical crime novel of the year' Sunday ExpressLondon, 1654. Oliver Cromwell is at the height of his power and has declared himself Lord Protector. Yet he has many enemies, at home and abroad. London is a complex web of spies and merchants, priests and soldiers, exiles and assassins. One of the web's most fearsome spiders is Damian Seeker, agent of the Lord Protector. No one knows where Seeker comes from, who his family is, or even his real name. All that is known of him for certain is that he is utterly loyal to Cromwell, and that nothing can be long hidden from him. In the city, coffee houses are springing up, fashionable places where men may meet to plot and gossip. Suddenly they are ringing with news of a murder. John Winter, hero of Cromwell's all-powerful army, is dead, and the lawyer, Elias Ellingworth, found standing over the bleeding body, clutching a knife. Yet despite the damning evidence, Seeker is not convinced of Ellingworth's guilt. He will stop at nothing to bring the killer to justice: and Seeker knows better than any man where to search.
