Písečný muž - Lars Kepler

Jedné chladné zimní noci se ve Stockholmu objeví mladý muž, jenž kráčí podél železničního mostu. Je silně podchlazený a má těžký zápal plic. Kromě toho v nemocnici vyjde najevo jeden šokující fakt: podle úmrtního listu má být tenhle člověk už sedm let mrtvý. Zabil ho sériový vrah Jurek Walter, jehož poté, co ho Joona Linna zatkl, soud poslal na léčení na psychiatrii v naprosté izolaci. Ale kde ten člověk celé ty roky byl? Starý případ se znovu otevře. Zdá se, že někdo se snaží dostat pod kůži sériového vraha. Je třeba jednat rychle, protože čas běží. Lars Kepler svým čtvrtým románem překonává veškerá očekávání. Lars Kepler je pseudonym, za nímž se skrývají Alexandra Coelho Ahndorilová (nar. 1966) a její manžel Alexander Ahndoril (nar. 1967).

Román Hypnotizér (2009; česky Host 2010) se stal mezinárodním bestsellerem, jeho filmové verze se ujal známý režisér Lasse Hallström. Druhým dílem byla neméně úspěšná Paganiniho smlouva (2010; česky Host 2011). Třetím, dosud posledním, je Svědkyně ohně (2011), která současně vychází také jako audiokniha v interpretaci Pavla Rímského.

Audiokniha: Margot je vlečena jako zvíře na porážku… Saga Bauerová již téměř pustila z hlavy děsivou pohlednici, na jejímž rubu ji kdosi podepsaný anagramem informoval o existenci sovětské pistole Makarov s devíti bílými kulkami, z nichž jedna údajně čeká na Joonu Linnu. Nyní, s odstupem tří let, je však na starém hřbitově v Kapellskäru – vyobrazeném na lícové straně téhož pohledu – nalezen pytel s lidskými ostatky rozpuštěnými v kyselině. Navíc se na místě činu našla sněhobílá nábojnice… Podaří se Joonovi po boku Sagy, která mu podle pisatele této výhrůžky jako jediná může zachránit život, zastavit sérii bestiálních vražd? Zvlášť když na seznamu obětí figuruje i kolegyně z jejich řad? Devátý díl detektivní série s komisařem Joonou Linnou, které se celosvětově prodalo více než 15 milionů výtisků. „Stieg Larsson má logicky slušnou řádku pokračovatelů, ale Lars Kepler je mezi nimi jednoznačně ten nejlepší.“ – Time. „Joona Linna není jen nekonvenční hrdina, jehož vnitřní já je plné záhad. Minulost mu velí, aby se nevzdával. Okamžitě jsme pochopili, že zákruty jeho charakteru jsou příliš bohaté na to, abychom mu věnovali jedinou knihu…“ – Lars Kepler. „Dravý vypravěčský styl, jenž vás zahalí do pláště temnoty.“ – Daily Mail. „Autor je virtuosem napínavých scén.“ – The New York Times.

Stalker - Lars Kepler - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Joona Linna před rokem zmizel. Skoro všichni si myslí, že je mrtvý. Skoro všichni. Policie obdrží video snímající tajně ženu za oknem, jak si obléká punčocháče. Objekt slídila se druhý den stane obětí krvavé vraždy. Krutost činu dovede vyšetřovatele k pastorovi Rockymu Kyrklundovi, který byl před devíti lety odsouzen za brutální zabití k nařízené psychiatrické péči. Domnělý viník se však ke spáchání násilí nedoznal, neboť si z události nic nepamatuje kvůli poškození mozku, které utrpěl při autonehodě. Zatímco Rocky dosud pobývá na uzavřeném oddělení, je na cestě další nahrávka. Nikdo nechápe, co se děje, ale komisařka Margot Silvermanová je přesvědčená, že se jedná o sériového vraha. Poslední díl řady s Joonou Linnou vychází opět v intenzivním podání Pavla Rímského, jehož hlas už k sérii neodmyslitelně patří. „V románu Stalker autorská dvojice pod pseudonymem Lars Kepler vycítila naladění společnosti, podchytila trendy, ve kterých moderní člověk žije, a proměnila je v ústřední motivy. Proto se strhující detektivní příběh odehrává v kulisách internetového světa, YouTubu a sociálních sítí. Vyprávění postrádá hluchá místa a ve své komplexnosti je příběh vystavěn a precizně domyšlen do nejmenších detailů.“ — Novinky.cz „Dobře vystavěná, napínavá detektivka, která nikdy neztrácí na intenzitě… Kepler to zase dokázal.“ — Adresseavisen „Autoři vycházejí ze stejného receptu jako u předchozích knih. Mají skvěle vyvinutý smysl pro to, co je třeba k tomu, aby v lidech probudili jejich nejtemnější strachy a představy.“ — Dagsavisen „Stalker je ještě o několik příček lepší než předchozí díly série.

Inspektor Joona Linna již strávil na místě činu více času než kterýkoli jiný detektiv. Stále však má pocit, že mu něco uniklo. Hledí na dívku v posteli. Obličej má zakrytý rukama, jako by si hrála na schovávanou. Celý pokoj je od krve, na jejím útlém těle však není jediná kapička. Joona pozoruje mrtvolu, prodlévá u každého detailu a přemýšlí. Je to vlastně ještě dítě, ale osud ji zavedl až do tohoto pokoje, do střediska speciální péče pro mládež. Možná měla jen smůlu na rodiče a pěstouny. Možná si mysleli, že tu bude v bezpečí… Policie při vyšetřování komplikovaných případů občas využívá i pomoci spiritistických médií, není však známo, že by takováto spolupráce někdy přinesla ovoce. Proto když na linku pro veřejnost zavolá Flora Hansenová a tvrdí, že ji navštívil duch zavražděné dívky, nikdo jí nevěnuje pozornost. Hon na pachatele je plný nečekaných zvratů. Každá nalezená odpověď vede k dalším záhadám. Ačkoli pátrání dospělo do mrtvého bodu, policie telefonáty Flory Hansenové nadále ignoruje. Nejprve za svou informaci žádala peníze, nyní však jen úpěnlivě prosí, aby ji vyslechli…

The Silver Snarling Trumpet - Robert Hunter

Discovered at last, the legendary lost manuscript of Grateful Dead co-founder and primary lyricist Robert Hunter, written in the early 1960s-a wry, richly observed, and enlightening remembrance of the scene in Palo Alto that gave rise to an incredible partnership of Hunter and Jerry Garcia, and then to the Grateful Dead itself-with a Foreword by John Mayer, an Introduction by Dennis McNally, and an Afterword by Brigid Meier. Strange to think back on those days when it was perfectly natural that we all slept on the floor in one small room . . . These were the days before practical considerations, matters of importance , began to eat our minds. We were all poets and philosophers then, until we began to wonder why we had so few concrete worries and went out to look for some. So wrote Robert Hunter in The Silver Snarling Trumpet, both a novelistic singular work of art and the missing piece of the Grateful Dead origin story. In these pages, readers are privy to the early days of Hunter, Garcia, and their cohorts, who sit at coffee shops passing around a single cup of bottomless coffee because they lacked the funds for more than one. Follow these truth-seeking souls into the stacks at Kepler s Books, renting instruments at Swain s House of Music, and through the countryside on mind-expanding road trips. Witness impromptu jams, inspired intellectual pranks, and a dialogue that is, by turns, amusing and brilliant and outrageous. Hunter shares his impressions of his first gig with Garcia for a college audience, along with descriptions of his most intense dreams and psychedelic explorations. All of it, enlivened by Hunter s visionary spirit and profound ideas about creativity and collaboration. The lost manuscript is augmented with a Foreword by John Mayer, an Introduction by Dennis McNally, and an Afterword by Brigid Meier, who was part of their scene in the San Francisco Bay Area that served as a bridge from the beatniks to the hippies. Also included is Hunter s own 1982 assessment of his work-about how he shared it with close confidants but then decided to leave it unpublished. Five years after Hunter s death, the text has been found, so readers and fans of Hunter s indelible poetry and song will see the origin of his genius and his craft.
