Audiokniha: Michael "Mickey" Haller je právnik bez kancelárie. Úraduje na zadnom sedadle svojho Lincolna, a tak je vždy nablízku svojim klientom - motorkárom, podvodníkom, drogovým dílerom. 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...

''Death is my beat.'' Those words, spoken by the narrator and hero of The Poet, Jack McEvoy, could also apply to Michael Connelly. Time and time again in these riveting true crime, non-fiction pieces, we make the connection between Connelly the crime reporter and Connelly the novelist: ''On the day I arrived in Los Angeles I sat in the newspaper editor''s office being interviewed for a job on the crime beat. The day before there had been a bank heist in which the thieves had gone into the city''s labyrinthine storm water tunnel system to get beneath the bank before tunnelling upward.'' Years later that story would become The Black Echo. ''Moments. They kept coming. One morning an editor called me and told me to swing by a murder scene on my way to the office. Just like that, like I was picking up a coffee on the way to work. The murder was on Woodrow Wilson Drive in the Hollywood Hills. I went as instructed and got the story. I also got the place where I would put the home of the fictional detective [Harry Bosch] I had secretly begun writing about . . .'' The cops, the killers, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

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.

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.

"Fair Warning" je třetí kniha Michaela Connellyho, jejímž hlavním hrdinou je autorovo alter ego, neúnavný reportér Jack McEvoy. Příběh začíná rázně a na tempu neztrácí až do konce: McEvoye kontaktují dva losangeleští detektivové a informují ho, že je podezřelým ve vyšetřování vraždy Tiny Portrerové. Ta byla nalezena mrtvá a McEvoy s ní zhruba o rok dříve strávil noc. Tím jsou kostky vrženy a každý, kdo četl předchozí knihy s McEvoyem (Básník a Strašák), už jistě tuší, že tento energický a talentovaný reportér nakonec začne případ vyšetřovat na vlastní pěst. Jack postupně odhaluje detaily v pozadí Tininy smrti a přitom rozkrývá mnohem rozsáhlejší kauzu. Zdá se, že v okolí řádí sériový vrah, a jak McEvoy proniká pod povrch - přičemž se neobejde bez pomoci dalších osob, například bývalé agentky FBI Rachel Wallingové -, noří se stále hlouběji do problematiky analýzy DNA a nakonec i do temného webu. Je to nebezpečné, leckdy i hrůzostrašné prostředí a Michaelu Connellymu se při jeho popisu podařilo spojit dvě věci: dotáhnout zápletku do dramatického závěru a zároveň podtrhnout význam kvalitní novinářské práce.

As more of our lives are spent interacting digitally — sending and receiving payments, interacting on social media, using certified delivery, playing games online, and generally participating in the digital world — the fair exchange of our digital belongings becomes increasingly essential.This book delves into the theory of fair exchange, from the historic to the cutting-edge, and presents a unified framework for understanding fair exchange protocols. Every exchange starts with a handshake, which is followed by four additional operations: deposit; verification; synchronization; and release or restoration. The environments in which these operations take place determine the properties of the resulting protocol, and the characteristics of the items that can be exchanged.Existing protocols are examined through this framework, including escrow-based protocols, optimistic protocols, and gradual release protocols. A new family of fair exchange protocols is developed which make use of attestables, a novel interface for exfiltration-resistant computing. An attestable-based protocol called FEWD is also introduced and several variations are described which are suitable for the exchange of different classes of items.Finally, a number of special topics for fair exchange are introduced, including legal issues that can emerge in practical applications of fair exchange, a legal analysis of the basic operations of ...

Fair: The Life-Art of Translation, is a satirical, refreshing and brilliantly playful book about learning the art of translation, being a bookworker in the publishing industry, growing up, family, and class.Loosely set in an imagined book fair/art fair/fun fair, in which every stall or ride imitates a real-world scenario or dilemma which must be observed and negotiated, the book moves between personal memories and larger questions about the role of the literary translator in publishing, about fairness and hard work, about the ways we define success, and what it means – and whether it is possible – to make a living as an artist.Fair is also interested in questions of upbringing, background, support, how different people function in the workplace, and the ways in which people are excluded or made invisible in different cultural and creative industries. It connects literary translation to its siblings in other creative arts to show how creative and subjective a practice it is while upholding the ethics and politics at play when we translate someone else’s work.Blurring the lines between memoir, autofiction, satire and polemic, Fair is a singularly inventive and illuminating book by one of the UK’s most original and admired writers and translators.

Financial Times Best Business Book of 2025 • Winner of SABEW Best in Business Book Award Two leading gender experts and Harvard researchers reveal a new paradigm for fairness at work and offer professionals at every level, in any kind of organization, immediate, proven, and evidence-based ways to do their everyday work better and smarter—and more fairly. To make organizations more fair, many well-meaning individuals and companies invest their time and resources in traditional diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. But because inequity is built into the structures, processes, and environments of our workplaces, adding these programs has been ineffective and often becomes a burden passed off to the individuals they are meant to help. In Make Work Fair, behavioral scientist and author of What Works Iris Bohnet and gender expert Siri Chilazi offer data-backed, actionable solutions that drive real organizational change by building fairness into the very fabric of the workplace. Their methods—tested at many organizations, and grounded in data proven to work in the real world—help us make fairer, and simply better, decisions. Using their three-part framework, employees at all levels can embed fairness into their everyday practices. Believing in equal opportunity is essential—but it isn’t enough. Offering ...
