Bývalý vojenský policista Jack Reacher dál putuje křížem krážem Spojenými státy. V kapse má roličku bankovek, pas, platební kartu a zubní kartáček. Nikam nespěchá. A nikdy neuhýbá před problémy. A jeden velký ho potká na opuštěné silnici v Arizoně - v podobě džípu nabouraného do jediného stromu v širokém okolí. Ale všechno je jinak, než se na první pohled zdá. O několik minut později míří Reacher do nedalekého města, odlehlé díry u hranic s Mexikem, která má lepší časy už dávno za sebou. Vedle něj sedí Michaela Fentonová, válečná veteránka a později agentka FBI, jež se snaží najít svého bratra dvojče. Nejspíš se zapletl s nebezpečnými lidmi. A Reacher je nejspíš bude muset navštívit. Jejich šéf Dendoncker zanedbanému zapadákovu skrytě vládne. Najít ho je takřka nemožné. Dostat z něj odpovědi bude ještě těžší. A nepřátelští obyvatelé města by radši umřeli, než aby prozradili jakékoliv tajemství. Childův hrdina, bývalý vojenský policista Jack Reacher, se poprvé objevil v románu Killing Floor (č. Jatka, 1999), který měl okamžitě úspěch a autor za něj získal řadu ocenění. Streamovací platforma Amazon Prime Video podle něj letos uvádí osmidílnou minisérii nazvanou Reacher.

The German Democratic Republic, or East Germany, was the frontline in the Cold War, packed with hundreds of thousands of Soviet and East German troops armed with the latest Warsaw Pact equipment, lined up along the 1,400 km Inner German Border. However, because of the repressive East German police state, little human intelligence about these forces reached the West. Who were they? Where were they located? What were they doing? How were they equipped? What were their intentions? NATO was lined up in West Germany to face these forces and relied on getting up-to-date intelligence to warn of any threat, ‘Indicators of Hostility’ that could be a precursor to an invasion. BRIXMIS, the British Commanders’-in-Chief Mission to the Soviet Forces in Germany, was on hand to provide that intelligence. Thanks to an obscure 1946 agreement between the British and Soviets that established ‘liaison missions’ in their respective zones of occupation, the British were able to send highly qualified military ‘observers’ into East Germany to roam (relatively) freely and keep an eye on what was going on. What started as ‘liaison’, a point of contact between the British and Soviet occupation forces, developed into a very sophisticated intelligence gathering operation, sending ...

''The most comprehensive narrative of intelligence compiled ... unrivalled'' Max Hastings, Sunday Times''Captivating, insightful and masterly'' Edward Lucas, The TimesThe history of espionage is far older than any of today''s intelligence agencies, yet the long history of intelligence operations has been largely forgotten. The first mention of espionage in world literature is in the Book of Exodus.''God sent out spies into the land of Canaan''. From there, Christopher Andrew traces the shift in the ancient world from divination to what we would recognize as attempts to gather real intelligence in the conduct of military operations, and considers how far ahead of the West - at that time - China and India were. He charts the development of intelligence and security operations and capacity through, amongst others, Renaissance Venice, Elizabethan England, Revolutionary America, Napoleonic France, right up to sophisticated modern activities of which he is the world''s best-informed interpreter. What difference have security and intelligence operations made to course of history? Why have they so often forgotten by later practitioners? This fascinating book provides the answers.

A gripping high-stakes thriller featuring forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan, from Number One Bestselling author Kathy Reichs. EVEN ON AN ISLAND PARADISE, DANGER STILL LURKS Called in to examine what is left of a body struck by lightning, Tempe traces an unusual tattoo to its source and is soon embroiled in a much larger case. Young men – tourists – have been disappearing on the islands of Turks and Caicos for years. Seven years ago, the first victim was found with both hands cut off; the other visitors vanished without a trace. But recently, tantalizing leads have emerged and only Tempe can unravel them. Maddeningly, the victims seem to have nothing in common – other than the unusual locations where their bodies are eventually found, and the fact that the young men all seem to be the least likely to be involved in foul play. Do these attacks have something to do with the islands’ seething culture of gang violence? Tempe isn’t so sure. And then she turns up disturbing clues that what’s at stake may actually have global significance.It isn’t long before the sound of a ticking clock grows menacingly loud, and then Tempe herself becomes a target . . ...
