MARK BILLINGHAM – FROM THE DEAD
It has been a decade since Alan Langford’s charred remains were discovered in his burnt-out car. His wife Donna was found guilty of conspiracy to murder her husband and served ten years in prison.
But just before she is released, Donna receives a nasty shock: an anonymous letter containing a photo of her husband. The man she hates with every fibre of her being – the man she paid to have murdered – seems very much alive and well
How is it possible that her husband is still alive? Where is he? Who sent the photo, and why?
DI Tom Thorne becomes involved in a case where nothing and no one are what they seem. It will take him much further from his London beat than he has ever been before – and closer to a killer who will do anything to protect his new life.
MARK CHARAN NEWTON – THE BROKEN ISLES ( LEGENDS OF THE RED SUN)
War spills into the Boreal Archipelago, as two rival cultures bring their eternal battle into this adjacent realm. Fresh from a military victory, Commander Brynd Lathraea plans to rebuild the city of Villiren, where he is confronted with a dilemma. There are friendly forces who have no other choice but to live alongside his own people, and their numbers will be required to fight in the looming conflict. The commander turns politician as he seeks to build bridges and embrace mysterious new technologies to further his ambitions. However, many in Villiren are sceptical of aliens coming to their city, tensions run high, and even the dream of a peaceful future brings with it inevitable clashes of beliefs. Meanwhile, Villjamur has been destroyed. A vast swathe of refugees from the legendary city are now on the run from an immense alien presence in the sky. Villages are being cleared and people are dying en masse. And Inquisitor Fulcrom finds himself at the helm of an operation to aid the refugee exodus to the coast, but it's a race against time before this threatened genocide is complete. Ancient civilisations line up on the field of battle. Exotic creatures and a possible god walk alongside citizens of the Empire. As the Legends of the Red Sun series draws to a close, there will be one final and immense conflict to decide the fate of multiple cultures forever.

MARK PEARSON – MURDER CLUB
Detective Inspector Delaney is looking forward to spending Christmas with Kate Walker and his young daughter Siobhan, but the past always had a way of ruining Jack's best-laid plans. And this holiday season is no different!
A year previously, Delaney was responsible for the arrest of Michael Robinson, a viciously violent rapist. Robinson always claimed he was set up by the police but before he could be brought to trail he was brutally attacked in prison and left for dead. He didn't die, however, and a year later, out of hospital and fit for trial - he is pointing the finger squarely at Delaney for the assault that nearly killed him. And not only that - it looks like he has a case!
And everything is about to get a whole lot worse for the Detective Inspector when Robinson walks free from court.
There are new faces at White CIty - and with them come old crimes, old bones and old scores to settle!
It seems that Delaney is not the only one in West London with a past they'll take any measures to hide. And as the body count starts to climb - it looks like Jack himself might be about to join the club.
Markiz de Sad – FILOZOFIJA U BUDOARU
Remek-delo čuvenog markiza, najambiciozniji manifest slobodoumlja svih vremena.
Gospodin Dolmanse, neverovatno potkovan svim veštinama libertenstva, obučava mlađanu devicu Eženi neobuzdanim telesnim akrobacijama, ali i duhovnoj gimnastici. Prepuštena madam De Sent Anž i Dolmanseu, Eženi je izuzetno talentovana učenica i veoma brzo napreduje na polju zadovoljstava.
„Usadićemo u tu lepu glavicu sva načela najrazuzdanijeg bluda, razbuktaćemo u njoj sve naše ognjeve, ulićemo joj svu našu filozofiju, probudićemo u njoj sve naše želje“, predlaže madam De Sent Anž.
Nakon ovih stranica koje obiluju pohotnim scenama i besramnim orgijama, ljupka naivna devojka postaje vrhunski poznavalac filozofije zadovoljstva u kojoj nema tajni. I dva veka nakon smrti, De Sadova revolucionarna strast ne prestaje da šokira i intrigira čitaoce širom sveta: negirajući religiju, moral, integritet, ljubav, odanost i druge tradicionalne vrednosti, on daje viziju novog sveta neograničene seksualne slobode.
MARTIN CRUZ SMITH – STALIN’S GHOST
Moscow lies deep under snow, and Arkady Renko is called in to handle a delicate matter: passengers riding the last metro of the night have reported seeing the ghost of Stalin on the platform edge. Not everyone, it seems, likes the fact that Stalin is dead . . .
But in the midst of a blizzard nothing is as it first appears to be. Renko’s girlfriend Eva and his adopted son, Zhenya, seem to be slipping into danger. The owner of a matrimonial agency wants her husband killed. An innocent `Russian Bride’ employs a garrotte. A chess grandmaster wanders into Renko’s life and leads him into the line of fire. Diehard Communists gather to sing along with Stalin. `Red Diggers’ uncover secrets buried for half century in a desolate forest and Renko discovers ghosts that have been waiting for him all his life . . .
As Russia swings more and more to the right, Renko is more and more out of step. Not only an original and deeply humane thriller, Stalin’s Ghost is also a wonderful evocation of the emerging New Russia.
Praise for Martin Cruz Smith:
`Cruz Smith not only constructs grittily realistic plots, he also has a gift for characterisation of which most thriller writers can only dream’ Mail on Sunday
