Audiokniha: Divadelní prkna prý znamenají svět. A klíč je v tom, že jsou vratká. Ne-li přímo ztrouchnivělá záští. Soukromou detektivní kancelář Julie Starkové vyhledá hvězda stockholmského Královského činoherního divadla Bianca Salová, vyděšená z toho, že ji v bytě stalkuje bývalý brazilský milenec. Na balkoně jí nechal ptačí mrtvolku a nejspíš se mu podařilo proniknout i na obnovené zkoušky Macbetha, kterého rozevlátá herečka s kolegy právě nacvičuje. To se celebritám občas stává, ale potíž je v tom, že Biančin milý má být už tři roky po smrti. Vyšetřovatelka s hůlkou, jizvami a notně pošramocenou duší se proto rozhodne dělat klientce stráž i v budově divadla, avšak vše nasvědčuje tomu, že i v zákulisí střežené scény si vetřelec ví rady. Není zdejší? Zatímco soubor dál zkouší, vztahy se vinou hereckých móresů vyhrocují, okruh podezřelých se zvětšuje a pak… Nezapomínejme, že Shakespearovo drama líčí krvelačné formování vraha a jedy v něm vaří trio čarodějnic! Duo Alex Ahndoril – tedy dvojice, která světu dala Larse Keplera – znovu na scéně. Ve druhém případu ze série Klíč musí poirotovská vyšetřovatelka Julie Starková zapojit nejen výjimečné instinkty a metodickou logiku, ale opět přizvat na pomoc exmanžela, jehož by tak ráda získala zpět. „Autoři slibují, že jejich ...

Audiokniha: V každé rodině se najde černá ovce. Jen pro stromy nejdřív nevidíme les. A klíč k tomu všemu. Per Günter Mott je pracháč z vlivného dřevařského rodu, navíc kvartální alkoholik. Jednoho rána však stojí na prahu stockholmské kanceláře soukromé vyšetřovatelky Julie Starkové a škemrá o pomoc. Po zasedání dynastie, které krom tahanic o podíly obnášelo i spoustu pití, objevil ve svém mobilu foto zavražděného muže s pytlem na hlavě. Koho a proč? Toť otázky pro Julii, jež se spojí s exmanželem a exkomisařem Sidem a vyrážejí na zámek Mannheim v hloubi lesů severozápadního Švédska. V sídle hrabivé rodiny Mottů začne pod taktovkou této mladé dámy s hůlkou investigativní drama, v němž dominují její důvtip a dar nahlížet pod povrch emocí. Není divu, je-li Julie sama přímo souborem chodících neuróz. Než tedy sezve přítomné podezřelé ve stylu Agathy Christie do salonku a vyloží karty na stůl, zjistíme mnohé i o její zraněné duši. Duo Lars Kepler přichází s novou sérií – a pod novým pseudonymem!

Druhý případ Julie Starkové. Soukromé vyšetřovatelce Julii Starkové zavolá zoufalá herečka Bianca Salová, kterou podle jejího tvrzení pronásleduje mrtvý snoubenec. Předešlou noc se Bianca probudila a uviděla ho ve své ložnici a o několik dní dříve se údajně vloupal do její divadelní šatny a zapálil jí šaty. Její snoubenec však tragicky zahynul před třemi lety, právě když Bianca zkoušela hlavní ženskou roli v tragédii Macbeth v Královském činoherním divadle. Bianca se tehdy přímo na jevišti zhroutila a celé představení muselo být zrušeno. Nyní dostal divadelní soubor šanci hru inscenovat znovu a během zkoušek se začaly dít ony nevysvětlitelné návštěvy. Julie Starková se hereččina případu ujme - doprovází Biancu na zkoušky a proniká do dynamiky divadelního prostředí. Zdá se, že stalker se pohybuje přímo v souboru. Téměř nikdo z herců nemá pro incidenty alibi a napětí před premiérou roste. Zároveň Julie požádá svého bývalého manžela Sidneyho, aby vyšetřil nejasnosti kolem úmrtí Biančina snoubence. K vyřešení tohoto záhadného případu bude muset Julie zapojit všechny své psychologické instinkty, pozorovací schopnosti a logické myšlení. Kniha Zavřu oči v modlitbě je druhým dílem série Klíč od Alexe Ahndorila, autorské dvojice, která stojí za Larsem Keplerem.

“An exacting look at gentrification” (New York Times Book Review)—and the lives devastated in the process The term gentrification has become a buzzword to describe the changes in urban neighborhoods across the country, but we don’t realize just how threatening it is. It means more than the arrival of trendy shops, much-maligned hipsters, and expensive lattes. The very future of American cities as vibrant, equitable spaces hangs in the balance. A vigorous exposé revealing who holds power in our cities, How to Kill a City uncovers the massive systemic forces behind gentrification in New Orleans, Detroit, San Francisco, and New York. Now with a new preface reflecting on the present-day political landscape surrounding the housing crisis, How to Kill a City is essential reading for anyone who cares about the fate of our cities and our nation.

Includes a new chapter on John Cage.Alex Ross’s award-winning international best-seller, ‘The Rest is Noise: Listening to the Twentieth Century’, has become a contemporary classic, establishing him as one of our most popular and acclaimed cultural historians; this is his much anticipated next book on the subject of music.In ‘Listen To This’ Alex Ross, the music critic for the New Yorker, looks both backwards and forwards in time, capturing essential figures and ideas in classical music history, as well as giving an alternative view of recent pop music that emphasizes the power of the individual musical voice.After relating his first encounter with classical music, Ross vibrantly sketches canonical composers such as Schubert, Verdi and Brahms; gives us in-depth interviews wth modern pop masters such as Bjork and Radiohead; and introduces us to music students at a Newark high school and to indie-rock hipsters in Beijing. In his essay ‘Chacona, Lamento, Walking Blues’, Ross brilliantly retells hundreds of years of music history – from Renaissance dance to Led Zeppelin – through a few iconic bass lines of celebration and lament.Whether his subject is Mozart or Bob Dylan, Ross writes in a style at once erudite and lively, showing how music expresses ...

The Bible is one story told through dozens of people over thousands of years. As Christians, we know we''re supposed to believe this - and so we do. But when we pick up our Bibles, if we''re honest, we sometimes lose the thread, especially with some of the strange and obscure happenings in Genesis.We can''t help but wonder, What''s this all about?!Who - or what - are the Nephilim? What about this mysterious Melchizedek who seems to appear out of nowhere? Why are there so many genealogies? Why do Abraham and a Hittite haggle for so long about the price of a rinky-dink cave?
