The Hunters Club - Alis Hawkins - Bog - Canelo - Plusbog.dk

If you''re not with them... you''re against them. Oxford, 1883. Young men are being found bound, gagged and hooded at the gates of their colleges in the small hours. Basil Rice , Jesus College fellow, is asked by the senior proctor to investigate. But matters of sexual purity are dangerous, as it lays Basil open to unwelcome scrutiny of his own private life. Meanwhile, the University Vice Chancellor’s Court has wrongly imprisoned a young shopgirl from the town, and she seeks the services of young academic and budding journalist, Non Vaughan , to clear her name. The uncovering by Basil of a secret society, The Venatores, and the murder of a student, cause Non and Basil to join forces. But is justice possible in a world so unjust and dangerous? A scintillating historical mystery from the author of CWA Historical Dagger shortlisted A Bitter Remedy . Praise for the Oxford Mysteries series ''An excellent historical mystery dripping with atmosphere that exposes the chauvinism, misogyny and bigotry of late Victorian England'' The Times ''Real figures from history rub shoulders with those invented by Hawkins – and her inventiveness is prodigal'' Financial Times ''Fearlessly tackles taboo attitudes of the era, taking aim at misogyny, homophobia, and sexual politics. An excellent addition to the historical mystery canon. Marvellous!'' Vaseem Khan ''Brilliantly researched, rich in atmosphere and with two likeable and intriguing protagonists at the centre'' Philip Gwynne Jones

The unmissable new speculative novel for fans of Station Eleven , The End We Start From and The Last of Us . When the end comes, what will you wish you had done? In 2050s London, fear grips like a vice as a deadly virus sweeps the globe. The British prime minister tells her people to remain calm. A vaccine will be available soon, and as a precautionary measure children will be whisked away to undisclosed locations, kept safe until the storm passes. Marianne, Downing Street press secretary, doesn’t realise the futility until it is far, far too late. When the truth hits her, Marianne is forced to choose: stay with her family, or do whatever she can to help the doomed survive. As London falls, seven-year-old Maia is one of the last to escape the city. In an evacuation camp, she binds herself to Finn: in the absence of everything she knew, he becomes her everything. Yet as the years roll on and hope fades, Maia sees the bubble of safety is also a prison. She realises there is only one choice: to leave the camp and find what remains on the outside.

Blood Vengeance - Douglas Jackson - Bog - Canelo - Plusbog.dk

Britain’s wartime alliances hinge on the outcome of Kalisz’s next case… Christmas Day 1943, Arisaig, Scotland. The body of beautiful, well-connected Polish SOE agent Krystina Kowolska is found in the gardens of the country house where she’s been preparing for a vital mission to France. The question is, was she already dead when she was hanged? Two days later, resistance double agent, Investigator Jan Kalisz of the Warsaw Kripo is flown to Britain where Winston Churchill himself tasks him with finding Krystina’s killer, before the cracks in Britain’s alliance with Poland become fractures. Yet Arisaig is a place of secrets where everyone is a trained killer, and Kalisz discovers that Krystina had her demons – and her enemies.
