The 66th Rebirth of Frankie Caridi #1 - Johnny Marciano

Normally back to school means gathering supplies and buying new clothes, but Frankie Caridi has never known normal. So when her back to school consists of learning how to use crystals to power her mind and trapping marauding spirits, she adapts. But the secrets of magic are nothing compared to the secrets she learns about her own past.Frankie is used to living in her younger brotherÂ’s shadow. Lucie is outgoing, smart, kind, and has horns. Yes, horns. FrankieÂ’s life has always revolved around Lucie, so when she s told she must attend a new boarding school because Lucie has been given a full scholarship, she knows she has no other choice. But something about the Pythagorean Institute is off. The building looks like a prison, half of the students have horns like her brother, and the headmaster acts more like a cult leader than a principal. Even weirder, however, are the dreams Frankie has been having since she moved into her dorm. Dreams that sometimes seem more like… memories.Trapped in this new school with no way home, Frankie must get to the bottom of why the place unsettles her so much. But in learning about the Institute, Frankie learns more about herself—and her past—than she could ever have expected. What she discovers brings her out of her brotherÂ’s shadow and gives her powers beyond belief, but the spotlight comes with its own set of troubles.

The Gift Book 1: Eleanor - RA Williams

The North Atlantic, 14 April 1912. Amid the chaos of the sinking Titanic, a young Eleanor Annenberg meets the eyes of a stranger and is immediately captivated. As the ship buckles around them, she follows him down into the hold and finds him leaning over an open sarcophagus, surrounded by mutilated bodies. She catches but a glimpse of what lies within before she s sucked into a maelstrom of freezing brine and half-devoured corpses. Elle is pulled out of the water, but the stranger - and the secrets she stumbled upon - are lost. Unintentionally, however, he leaves her a gift; one so compelling that Elle embarks on a journey that pulls her into a world of ancient evils, vicious hunters and human prey to find the man who saved her that fateful night. From trench warfare at Cape Helles in 1915 to a shipwreck in the tropical shallows off the Honduran coast, from a lost mine beneath the towering Externsteine in a Germany on the verge of war to the gothic crypts of Highgate Cemetery in London, Elle gets closer to a truth she has sought for most of her life. But at what cost? Gifts, after all, are seldom free.

Amnézie - Michael Robotham - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Minulost vás pronásleduje, i když si ji zrovna nepamatujete… Ztráta paměti dovede člověku převrátit život naruby. Tím spíš, když se vzpomínky vypaří z hlavy strážci zákona, kterého vylovili postřeleného z ledových vod Temže. Kdo a proč chtěl detektiva inspektora Vincenta Ruize připravit o život? A jak s tím souvisí léta pohřešovaná dívka, jejíž fotografii měl vyšetřovatel v kapse? S rozpomínáním mu pomáhá psycholog Joe O’Loughlin, ačkoli na důkladnější terapii není čas – po krku jdou Ruizovi jednak vrahové, jednak kolegové ze sboru. A taky obávaný místní mafián, shodou okolností otec malé Mickey Carlyleové, kterému zřejmě slíbil přivést dcerku zpět a jenž mu svěřil diamanty v hodnotě dvou milionů liber. Dokáže policista posedlý nevyřešeným případem poskládat celou mozaiku dřív, než mu vrtkavá štěstěna ukáže záda? Druhý díl populární série kriminálních thrillerů s psychologem OʼLoughlinem, který tentokrát sekunduje nezdolnému londýnskému detektivovi Vincentu Ruizovi. Kniha obdržela „australského Edgara“ – Cenu Neda Kellyho – za nejlepší kriminální román roku 2005. „Robotham obměnil hrdiny, ale nadále pracuje s ústředním motivem svého senzačního debutu: s postavou vyšetřovatele případu, který je zároveň hlavním podezřelým.“ – Kirkus Reviews. „Vynikající thriller s komplikovanými postavami. Napětí, které odráží nátlak policejních složek i úklady nebezpečného protivníka, je završeno nečekaným rozuzlením.“ – The Australian Crime Fiction Database. „Tohle mě na Joeovi děsí. Je to, jako by uměl otevřít člověku hlavu a číst si z jejího obsahu jako z čajových lístků. Není dobré se k někomu takovému dostat příliš blízko, protože jednoho dne by vám mohl nastavit zrcadlo a ukázat vám, co vidí vaše okolí.“ – ukázka z knihy.

The Story of China - Michael Wood

China s story is extraordinarily rich and dramatic. Now Michael Wood, one of the UK s pre-eminent historians, brings it all together in a major new one-volume history of China that is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand its burgeoning role in our world today.China is the oldest living civilisation on earth, but its history is still surprisingly little known in the wider world. Michael Wood s sparkling narrative, which mingles the grand sweep with local and personal stories, woven together with the author s own travel journals, is an enthralling account of China s 4000-year-old tradition, taking in life stationed on the Great Wall or inside the Forbidden City. The story is enriched with the latest archaeological and documentary discoveries; correspondence and court cases going back to the Qin and Han dynasties; family letters from soldiers in the real-life Terracotta Army; stories from Silk Road merchants and Buddhist travellers, along with memoirs and diaries of emperors, poets and peasants.In the modern era, the book is full of new insights, with the electrifying manifestos of the feminist revolutionaries Qiu Jin and He Zhen, extraordinary eye-witness accounts of the Japanese invasion, the Great Famine and the Cultural Revolution under Chairman Mao, and fascinating newly published sources for the great turning points in China s modern history, including the Tiananmen Square crisis of 1989, and the new order of President Xi Jinping.A compelling portrait of a single civilisation over an immense period of time, the book is full of intimate detail and colourful voices, taking us from the desolate Mongolian steppes to the ultra-modern world of Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong. It also asks what were the forces that have kept China together for so long? Why was China overtaken by the west after the 18th century? What lies behind China s extraordinary rise today? The Story of China tells a thrilling story of intense drama, fabulous creativity and deep humanity; a portrait of a country that will be of the greatest importance to the world in the twenty-first century.
