A bulwark against invasion, a conduit for exchange and a challenge to be conquered, the English Channel has always been many things to many people. Today it''s the busiest shipping lane in the world and hosts more than 30 million passenger crossings every year but this sliver of choppy brine, just 21 miles wide at its narrowest point, represents much more than a conductor of goods and people. Criss-crossing the Channel - not to mention regularly throwing himself into it for a bracing swim - Charlie Connelly collects its stories and brings them vividly to life, from tailing Oscar Wilde''s shadow through the dark streets of Dieppe to unearthing Britain''s first beauty pageant at the end of Folkestone pier (it was won by a bloke called Wally). We learn that Louis Bleriot was actually a terrible pilot, the tragic fate of the first successful Channel swimmer, and that if a man with a buttered head and pigs'' bladders attached to his trousers hadn''t fought off an attack by dogfish we might never have had a Channel Tunnel. Here is a cast of extraordinary characters - geniuses, cheats, dreamers, charlatans, visionaries, eccentrics and at least one pair of naked, cuddling balloonists - whose stories are all united by the English Channel to ensure the sea that makes us an island will never be the same again.

Despite the all-pervading influence of television ninety per cent of people in Britain still listen to the radio, clocking up over a billion hours of listening between us every week. It’s a background to all our lives: we wake up to our clock radios, we have the radio on in the kitchen as we make the tea, it’s on at our workplaces and in our cars. From Listen With Mother to the illicit thrill of tuning into pirate stations like Radio Caroline; from receiving a musical education from John Peel or having our imagination unlocked by Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy; from school-free summers played out against a soundtrack of Radio One and Test Match Special to more grown-up soundtracks of the Today programme on Radio 4 and the solemn, rhythmic intonation of the shipping forecast – in many ways, our lives can be measured in kilohertz.Yet radio is changing because the way we listen to the radio is changing. Last year the number of digital listeners at home exceeded the number of analogue listeners for the first time, meaning the pop and crackle and the age of stumbling upon something by chance is coming to an end. There will soon be no dial to turn, no in-between spaces on the waveband for washes of static, mysterious beeps and faint, distant voices. The mystery will be gone: we’ll always know exactly what it is we’re listening to, whether it’s via scrolling LCD on our digital radios, the box at the bottom of our TV screen or because we’ve gone in search of a particular streaming station. And so, as the world of analogue listening fades, Charlie Connelly takes stock of the history of radio and its place in our lives as one of the very few genuinely shared national experiences. He explores its geniuses, crackpots and charlatans who got us to where we are today, and remembers its voices, personalities and programmes that helped to form who we are as individuals and as a nation. He visits the key radio locations from history, and looks at its vital role over the past century on both national and local levels. Part nostalgic eulogy, part social history, part travelogue, Last Train To Hilversum is Connelly’s love letter to radio, exploring our relationship with the medium from its earliest days to the present in an attempt to recreate and revisit the world he entered on his childhood evenings on the dial as he set out on the radio journey of a lifetime.

The son of the jeweller is assigned to shepherd the transfer of the pearls to the financier's vacation home in a desert area of California and Charlie Chan also travels from Hawaii to California with the pearls.

Zákon je pre neho málokedy o vine alebo nevine - je o vyjednávaní a manipulácii. Keď si ho ako obhajcu najme playboy z Beverly Hills, ktorého zatkli za napadnutie mladej ženy, získa po rokoch prvého bohatého klienta. Dokonca to vyzerá tak, že tentokrát bude obhajovať skutočne nevinného človeka. Zdá sa, že prípad rýchlo uzavrie. Potom však zavraždia vyšetrovateľa a Haller zistí, že prípad nebude taký jednoduchý, ako sa na prvý pohľad zdalo. Ak chce uniknúť skrytému zlu, musí využiť všetky svoje schopnosti. V stávke totiž nie je len ostro sledovaný súdny prípad, ale aj jeho život... V roku 2011 stvárnil Mickeyho Hallera na filmovom plátne známy hollywoodsky herec Matthew McCounaghey vo filme Obhajca (The Lincoln Lawyer). „Connelly predvádza energickú drámu poháňanú cynizmom a právnikom menom Michael Haller („Ľudia mi hovoria Mickey“), ktorý pracuje pre spodinu zeme a neospravedlňuje sa.“— Marilyn Stasio, New York Times „Connellyho práca má všetko – ostro vykreslené, pútavé postavy, svižné dialógy... Rovnako ako v prípade Scotta Turowa, aj on chápe, že dobrý právny thriller je predovšetkým o práve, nie o právnikoch, ktorí sa správajú ako bojovníci so zločinom.“ —David Lazarus, San Francisco Chronicle „Advokát zo zadného sedadla je Connellyho prvý právny thriller a je jedným z najlepších románov, ktoré napísal, ak nie najlepší.“ - Carol Memmott, USA TODAY „Michael Connelly je vo svete obhajcu trestných činov rovnako doma, ako bol vždy vo sfére vyšetrovateľov a policajtov.

Audiokniha: Pod svícnem bývá největší tma. A Boschova reputace přímo oslňuje…Bývalý agent FBI Terrence McCaleb dostal v životě druhou šanci a po transplantaci srdce raději pověsil stresující povolání na hřebík. Z rodinné idyly na ostrůvku v zátoce Santa Monica však úspěšného sestavovatele zločineckých profilů vytrhne návštěva vyšetřovatelky z losangeleské mordparty, která si neví rady s případem brutální vraždy malíře pokojů Edwarda Gunna. Mrtvý totiž nebyl žádné neviňátko. Drastický způsob jeho likvidace navíc v policii vzbuzuje oprávněné obavy, že patrně nepůjde o poslední oběť sadistického vraha. Zemřelého kdysi vyšetřoval Terryho přítel Harry Bosch – jenž zrovna svědčí u ostře sledovaného procesu s hollywoodským režisérem obžalovaným z násilného zločinu –, a tak je uznávaný detektiv požádán o pomoc. Což byla možná chyba, jelikož některé z nalezených stop vedou právě k němu…Sedmý díl populární série kriminálních románů, podle níž vznikl úspěšný seriál Bosch s Titusem Welliverem v titulní roli. Tentokrát se však slovutný pátrač zapletl do vyšetřované vraždy víc, než by mu bylo milé. „Connelly v nejlepší formě. Vřele doporučujeme!“ – Library Journal„Autor Boschovi s McCalebem umožňuje, aby se vůči sobě kriticky vymezili, a to způsobem, který prohlubuje čtenářovo pochopení obou postav.“ – The New Yorker„Napínavý thriller se všemi nezbytnými atributy žánru. Michael Connelly rozhodně psát umí.“ – databazeknih.cz„Ať už fandíte Boschovi, nebo McCalebovi, v tomhle mrazivém mistrovském duelu nemůžete prohrát.“ – Kirkus Reviews „Tak tady je další.

Audiokniha: Harry Bosch je opäť v akcii a dostal naraz dva prípady. Prvý súvisí s obvinením z roku 1989, no súčasná analýza DNA potvrdila, že usvedčujúci dôkaz, kvapka krvi, patrí niekoľkokrát trestanému násilníkovi, čo sedí za mrežami. Problém je však v tom, že gauner mal v čase zločinu len osem rokov. Bosch sa teda púšťa do vyšetrovania. Zároveň mu opäť do cesty vstúpi Irvin Irving. Jeho syn vypadol z okna a Harry dostal za úlohu zistiť, či išlo o samovraždu, alebo o čosi iné. Intuícia Boscha ani teraz nesklame, za oboma prípadmi sa skrýva kopec špiny a nečakaných zápletiek.Povedali o titule"Connelly sa vyzná v policajnom vyšetrovaní a vyzná sa v súdnej sieni. Vďaka týmto znalostiam sú jeho príbehy vierohodné, zatiaľ čo vďaka jeho pisateľským schopnostiam ožívajú....Je to vzrušujúci spisovateľ, ktorého radi čítame" ―Jackie K. Cooper, Huffington Post"Každá z jeho kníh je oveľa viac ako len súčet jej častí....Connelly píše fikciu podľa skutočného života o skutočnom zločine. Čo robí jeho kriminálne príbehy pravdivými, je to, že nikdy skutočne neskončia."―Janet Maslin, New York Times

Featuring forewords from bandmates Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, this is the official and fully authorised biography of the world’s most revered and celebrated drummer.Mid-1962. The newly formed Rolling Stones are on the hunt for a permanent drummer. Their sights are set on Charlie Watts, a jazz musician already well-known within London’s rhythm and blues clubs. Fortunately for future Stones fans the world over, they persuade him to take on the job. Once installed at the drum seat, Charlie would not miss a beat for the rest of his life. He was there throughout the swinging sixties as the Stones reached superstardom and for the well-documented debauchery of the 1970s, typified by the iconic album Exile on Main St. Battling his own demons by the eighties, Charlie emerged unscathed, cementing his reputation as the thoughtful, cultured but no less compelling counterpoint to his more raucous bandmates.For almost 60 years – through all the band bust-ups, bereavements and changes in personnel both on stage and off – Charlie remained the rock at the heart of the Rolling Stones. At the same time, he was the antithesis of the rock-star archetype, an intensely private man who valued his family above all else.Drawing on new interviews with his family, friends and former bandmates – including Mick Jagger and Keith Richards – Charlie’s Good Tonight is the remarkable life story of Charlie Watts: official, authorised and as it’s never been told before.

It takes 25 minutes to bring our attention back to a task after an interruption. And we interrupt ourselves more than we''re interrupted by others.In Attention Span, psychologist Gloria Mark reveals these and more surprising results from her decades of research into how technology affects our attention. She shows how much of what we think we know is wrong, including insights such as:• Why multitasking hurts rather than helps productivity• How social media and modern entertainment amplify our short attention spans• What drains our mental resources and how to refuel them• The four types of attention that we experience every day and how to recognise themWhile the concept of ‘flow’ has previously been considered the ideal state of focus, Dr Mark offers a new framework to help explain how our brains function in the digital world: kinetic attention. This book reveals how we can take control, not only to find more success in our careers, but also to find creativity, joy and wellness in our everyday lives.

Tři desetiletí po pádu berlínské zdi nám tato kniha připomíná, kolik lidských osudů zasáhla a jaké to bylo žít v rozděleném světě. "Povinná četba pro každého, kdo chce porozumět Evropě, jakou jsme zdědili." - Jon Snow, moderátor britského televizního kanálu Channel 4 New "MacGregor vdechuje berlínské zdi nový život díky rozhovorům s lidmi, kteří ji stavěli, bránili či žili v jejím stínu." - Whashington Post "Bohatá sbírka příběhů z Berlína v době studené války zachycuje zběsilou komplexitu tohoto města." - Observer Iain MacGregor se jako redaktor či editor věnuje literatuře faktu již více než pětadvacet let. Své bohaté zkušenosti zúročil i v knize o berlínském hraničním přechodu Checkpoint Charlie. Jeho otec sloužil s britskou armádou na Rýně v 50. letech a poté byl poslán na zotavenou do Západního Berlína. Sám MacGregor během studií v první polovině 80. let navštívil Pobaltí i Sovětský svaz, se zájmem sledoval dění v Berlíně v noci z 9. na 10. listopadu 1989, kdy padla berlínská teď. Později procestoval bývalé země Varšavské smlouvy a vrátil se i do Berlína, kde zavítal ke stále netknutému hraničnímu přechodu Charlie. Žije v Londýně s manželkou a dvěma dětmi. Checkpoint Charlie je jeho druhá kniha.
