ROB THURMAN Moon Shine
Cal and Niko Leandros return to take back the mean streets of New York from some distinctly unhuman predators
Cal and his half-brother Niko's lives are settling back to normal after stopping their bloodthirsty relatives from bringing about the apocalypse. They've found a new apartment and even gainful employment by starting an investigative agency in partnership with a glamorous Upper East Side vampire. Of course, their clientele tends to be a little . . . unusual, but their money spends just the same.
Their latest job is undercover work for the Kin - New York's werewolf mafia - to sniff out proof of a set-up by a rival. The location is Moonshine, a gambling club for the otherworldly and Cal figures it will be an easy in-and-out sort of job. But as Niko likes to point out, nothing is more dangerous than overconfidence and when a brawl gets out of hand, it looks like he's right. Are Cal and Niko being set up themselves? And by people whose bite is much worse than their bark . . .
ROBERT GODDARD – FOUND WANTING
The car jolts to a halt at the pavement's edge, the driver waving through the windscreen to attract Richard's attention. He starts with astonishment. The driver is Gemma, his ex-wife.
He has not seen or spoken to her for several years. They have, she memorably assured him the last time they met, nothing to say to each other. But something has changed her mind - something urgent...
Immediately Richard is catapulted into a breathless race against time that takes him from London, across northern Europe and into the heart of a mystery that reaches back into history - the fate of Anastasia, youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, the last of the Romanovs. From that moment, Richard's life will be changed for ever in ways he could never have imagined...
Robert Skarg – Zataškavanje
Ponekad najkraće reči nose najveću težinu.
Kad je u napuštenom stanu pronađena ženska ruka, inspektor Džejk Porter i njegov partner Nik Stajls iz Londonske policije preuzeli su slučaj i odsečenu ruku povezali s Natašom Barkli, koju decenijama niko nije video. Dok istražuju detalje koji se kriju iza njenog nestanka, Porter i Stajls otkrivaju vezu s drugom istragom. Suočeni sa strahom ljudi od lokalnog moćnika, ali i sa zakulisnim igrama – možda čak i korupcijom unutar same policije – Porter i Stajls tragaju za odgovorima.
Upoznajte Džejka Portera i Nika Stajlsa – nov i neodoljiv detektivski par.
Stajls je bio slab na Hjuga Bosa, uredan i doteran, kratko podšišan, tip-top od glave do pete. Starije kolege prozvale su ga kancelarijskim lepotanom, ali on se nije obazirao na to. Neki su ga pak zvali Tjeri Anri Londonske policije sve dok ga nisu videli kako igra mali fudbal. Stajlsov partner Porter bio je Irac poreklom, odevao se nešto ležernije, te je njegova pojava odavala utisak komotnosti, ako ne i izvesne zapuštenosti.
ROBERTA A. HEINLEIN – PODKAYNE OF MARS
A classic tale from the Grandmaster of Science Fiction.

The opportunity to travel aboard the Tricorn-on an interstellar journey to Venus and Earth in the company of her diplomat uncle-is a dream come true. Poddy's idea of diplomacy is keeping the peace with her troublesome brother, Clark, but she's about to learn some things about war and peace. Because her uncle is the Ambassador from Mars to the Three Planets Conference, which makes him-and his niece and nephew-potential targets for any radicals looking to sabotage the negotiations between three worlds.

ROBIN BRIDGES – THE GATHERING STORM
VOYA said "Bridges could become a worthy successor to Libba Bray with this historical fantasy."Lush and opulent, romantic and sinister, The Gathering Storm, Vol. I in the Katerina Trilogy, reimagines the lives of Russia's aristocracy in a fabulously intoxicating page-turning fantasy.
St. Petersburg, Russia, 1888. As she attends a whirl of glittering balls, royal debutante Katerina Alexandrovna, Duchess of Oldenburg, tries to hide a dark secret: she can raise the dead. No one knows. Not her family. Not the girls at her finishing school. Not the tsar or anyone in her aristocratic circle. Katerina considers her talent a curse, not a gift. But when she uses her special skill to protect a member of the Imperial Family, she finds herself caught in a web of intrigue.
An evil presence is growing within Europe's royal bloodlines—and those aligned with the darkness threaten to topple the tsar. Suddenly Katerina's strength as a necromancer attracts attention from unwelcome sources . . . including two young men—George Alexandrovich, the tsar's standoffish middle son, who needs Katerina's help to safeguard Russia, even if he's repelled by her secret, and the dashing Prince Danilo, heir to the throne of Montenegro, to whom Katerina feels inexplicably drawn.
The time has come for Katerina to embrace her power, but which side will she choose—and to whom will she give her heart?

ROGER PEARCE – AGENT OF THE STATE
A Groundbreaking new thriller by the former Commander of Special Branch who rose to a position co-ordinating all the secret services in London. This is a landmark debut novel for those who like insider fiction in the mould of Stella Rimington. Agent of the State is filled with the kind of authentic detail only a man in the know would be able to tell.A suspected terrorist is frisked for explosives on the Embankment. Operators do this so skilfully he remains completely unaware...
In New Scotland Yard a new brand of manager fails to deal with escalating threats - 'aggressive indecision' is what Detective Chief Inspector John Kerr calls it...
He discovers that cocaine-fuelled sex parties in Knightsbridge are pulling in businessmen, Russian diplomats and senior members of the British government...
When Kerr's investigations are blocked by his bosses in Scotland Yard, he decides to go it alone and begins to expose a cover-up that extends to all levels of the British Establishment.
Agent of the State is the first novel by Roger Pearce, a former Special Branch officer at New Scotland Yard who rose to become its Commander and a key player in Whitehall's intelligence network. It is an authentic account of the way the British intelligence services work at all levels and of the hypocrisy of the British establishment.
'Vividly written and delivering a glimpse of what counter-terrorism feels like, it's a highly promising start from a writer who could well have a big future.'
Daily Mail
'It's a tribute to Roger Pearce's ability that the plot never becomes impenetrable and there's an uncomfortable authenticity as real-life operations are referenced... a breathless, hurtling page-turner.'

Rudolf Arčibald Rajs – Čujte Srbi
Na poziv srpske vlade 1914. Rudolf Arčibald Rajs u Srbiji istražuje zločine austrougarske, nemačke i bugarske vojske nad civilnim stanovništvom. Njegovi izveštaji suprostavljaju se slici o Srbima kao divljačkom narodu, koju su dotad plasirale Nemačka i Austro-ugarska.
Rajs je zavoleo srpskog vojnika-seljaka i srpski narod, te kao svoje posmrtno zaveštanje srpskom narodu ostavio rukopis knjige „Čujte, Srbi!“, napisan na francuskom jeziku, koji je mogao, na njegov zahtev biti objavljen tek posle njegove smrti. Arčibald je u knjizi ukazao na vrline i mane srpskog naroda, opisao je tadašnju srpsku inteligenciju, političare i omladinu… Iz svega se vidi koliko je Rajs poznavao i voleo Srbe, a njegove poruke su više nego aktuelne i danas.
Međutim, jesmo li uspeli da primenimo poruke Arčibalda Rajsa, napisane davne davne 1928. godine, i sačuvamo se sami od sebe?

Samanta Tong – Izgubljeni prtljag
Doli i Greta su živele zajedno gotovo pedeset godina – i preživele svašta.
Ali Greta je umrla i Doli se oseća izgubljeno i usamljeno. U znak sećanja na svoju sestru, Doli ode na aukciju izgubljenog prtljaga, na koju su ona i Greta išle svakog Božića. Ali kofer koji kupi sadrži neočekivan dar.
Među odećom se nalazi beležnica jedne žene koja gotovo godinu dana nije izlazila iz kuće, ali koja nije spremna da odustane od života. Sadržaj beležnice dirne Doli. Uz podršku komšija, penzionera Liroja i jedanaestogodišnje Flo, Doli odluči da doživi godinu novih iskustava koje je nepoznata Fibi smislila.
Ali, možete li da imate godinu novih iskustava kad imate sedamdeset dve godine? I da li je Doli spremna da otkrije tajne beležnice, ili je bilo bolje da su neke tajne ostale izgubljene na aerodromu?
