Případy komisaře Wallandera 9 - poslední případ světoznámého komisaře Wallandera. Jednoho dubnového rána roku 2008 zmizí na své pravidelné procházce lesoparkem vysloužilý vysoce postavený námořní důstojník H?kan von Enke. Vyšetřování případu má na starosti stockholmská policie a komisař Wallander s ním nemá nic společného - tedy oficiálně. Jenže zmizelý důstojník se měl stát tchánem jeho dcery. A tak se Wallander brzy zaplete do věcí, po kterých mu úředně nic není, slibuje, co vzápětí nesplní, dokonce i lže, když je to zapotřebí - a vychází mu to. Brzy ale narazí na matoucí špionážní aktivity, které se váží ještě k době studené války… Přidávají se ale další nečekané překážky. Co překročil šedesátku, má komisař pocit, že se nachází na prahu senility. Zoufale se drží naděje, kterou pro něj zosobňuje nedávno narozená vnučka, ale životní realita ho dohání. Do budoucnosti hledí s velkou nejistotou a zdá se nevyhnutelné, že se musí tváří v tvář utkat s tím nejvzpurnějším soupeřem: sám se sebou.

Vrazi bez tváře - Henning Mankell - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Henning Mankell je mezinárodně nejprodávanější švédský autor. Jiří Vyorálek představuje v prvním případu jeho slavného komisaře, zasmušilého bručouna, Kurta Wallandera... Komisaře Kurta Wallandera opustila žena, dcera s ním příliš nekomunikuje a jeho otec propadá senilitě. Pocity vyčerpanosti a zmaru vyvrcholí brzkým ranním výjezdem ke zdánlivě rutinnímu případu na osamělé farmě. Uprostřed mrazivého lednového rána na něj totiž čeká šokující místo činu: brutálně zavražděný starý muž a jeho manželka téměř zadušená smyčkou se zvláštním uzlem. Jediným svědectvím staré ženy, která v nemocnici podlehne svým zraněním, však zůstává slovo: „cizí“. Když zjištěná informace unikne do médií, má Wallander co dělat nejen s neznámými pachateli, ale rovněž s xenofobní vlnou násilí proti obyvatelům místního uprchlického tábora. Příležitost seznámit se s tímto báječným antihrdinou lidskosti, plným pochyb o vlastním životě a značně deprimovaným tím, jak hrůzné události vyjevují odpudivou stránku švédské společnosti… Pro ty, kdo Wallandera ještě neznají, je to kniha, kterou je třeba začít objevovat Mankellovo románové dílo. Babelio Mimořádný román. Hloubka a napětí, které uchvacují. Los Angeles Times Zručně popsané policejní postupy, příběh se rozvíjí ve svižném tempu a vrcholí ve strhujícím rozuzlení.

Audiokniha: Jsou jedné krve. A proto chápou, kolik bolesti obnáší strážit zákon… Čerstvou absolventku policejní akademie Lindu Wallanderovou zanedlouho čeká obvyklé kolečko městské pochůzkářky. I když proti otci a jeho způsobům celou pubertu protestovala, vybrala si nakonec tutéž profesi. Jsou přece jedné krve, což švédští strážci zákona ocení. Linda je sice nejspíš stejně prchlivá a paličatá jako její táta Kurt, ale taky intuitivní bystrozraká mladá žena, která si umí spojit dvě a dvě a pronásledovat zlořád s urputností buldoka. Krom toho má paklíč otevírající lecjaké dveře, i kdyby to týden před formálním nástupem k ystadskému sboru znamenalo, že vážně ohrozí svou bezpečnost… Začalo to hořícími labutěmi v parku, pak kdosi upálil tele ve stáji a způsobil i požár svatostánku, po němž v lavici zůstala uškrcená věřící. Otec i dcera Wallanderovi – občas pátrající ve vzájemné shodě a místy každý na vlastní pěst – už tuší, že v kraji Skåne řádí šílený mozek zviditelňující se zápalnými oběťmi.

Audiokniha: Drastické ozvuky sálajících nepokojů v Africe 90. let pocítí i obyvatelé chladného severu. Komisař Wallander vyšetřuje zmizení realitní makléřky Louisy Åkerblomové, aniž by našel jakékoli vysvětlení či motiv. Policista tuší, že vzorná manželka a matka zřejmě už není mezi živými. Nemůže však vědět, že její zabití souvisí s politickým děním a plánovaným pokusem o vraždu Nelsona Mandely v Jihoafrické republice. Třetí případ existenciálně uvažujícího detektiva v podání Jiřího Vyorálka se opět dotýká společenského kontextu doby - tentokrát jihoafrického apartheidu či přesunu bývalých členů KGB po rozpadu Sovětského svazu do řad mafie či služeb nových "zaměstnavatelů". Velkou špionážní zápletku přenáší Mankell z horkého kontinentu na malou plochu kraje jižního Švédska, kde se spiklenci jakoby mimochodem dopouštějí brutálního násilí.

Někdejší samotářský šéf ystadské kriminálky, přežívající v Löderlupu jen se svým psem, čelí návalům zmaru, příznakům cukrovky a výpadkům paměti, což ohrožuje jeho setrvání ve sboru. Nicméně znamenitá intuice i přes hrozbu počínající demence zůstává: ve střehu ji drží případ vysloužilého námořního kapitána Håkana von Enkeho, nastávajícího tchána jeho dcery a druhého dědečka Kurtovy vnučky, jenž v dubnu 2008 zčistajasna zmizel ze své stockholmské vily. Už v zájmu nejbližších, kteří jsou teď Wallanderovi jedinou oporou, se detektiv neoficiálně přidává ke kolegům z hlavního města a s buldočí metodičností pátrá, co se mohlo stát. Okolnosti kauzy však obklopuje děsivé ticho jako v ponorce, jíž neklidný příbuzný velel za dob studené války.

The Troubled Tour - David Potter

The South African tour of England in 1960 was far from ordinary. The Springboks, under captain Jackie McGlew - and with fine players like Roy McLean, Hugh Tayfield and Neil Adcock - arrived full of confidence, but that confidence was quickly shaken. The tour began a few weeks after the Sharpeville massacre of April that year, and the cricket took place just as the world was waking up to the evils of apartheid. Then there was the ''no-balling'' of Geoff Griffin, a controversy that had a great deal more to it than met the eye, revealing the sometimes unfortunate intervention of administrators into umpiring decisions. It may also have decided the series, for England won rather easily, but this of course was the era of the great English bowlers Brian Statham and Fred Trueman. All this took place before the all-seeing eyes of the new medium of television, and it was one of the first tours to be featured in detail on BBC TV. The Troubled Tour leaves no stone unturned to bring you the full story of that extraordinary tour.

First Man: The Life of Neil Armstrong - James Hansen

Now a major film starring Ryan Gosling, Claire Foy and Kyle Chandler, directed by Oscar-winner Damien Chazelle, First Man by James Hansen offers the only authorized glimpse into the life of America’s most famous astronaut, Neil Armstrong – the man whose “one small step” changed history. In First Man, Hansen explores the life of Neil Armstrong. Based on over 50 hours of interviews with the intensely private Armstrong, who also gave Hansen exclusive access to private documents and family sources, this “magnificent panorama of the second half of the American twentieth century” (Publishers Weekly, Starred Review) is an unparalleled biography of an American icon. When Apollo 11 touched down on the moon’s surface in 1969, the first man on the moon became a legend. Hansen vividly recreates Armstrong's career in flying, from his seventy-eight combat missions as a naval aviator flying over North Korea to his formative transatmospheric flights in the rocket-powered X-15 to his piloting Gemini VIII to the first-ever docking in space. For a pilot who cared more about flying to the Moon than he did about walking on it, Hansen asserts, Armstrong's storied vocation exacted a dear personal toll, paid in kind by his wife and children. ...

The Third Man Factor - John Geiger

The Third Man Factor tells the revealing story behind an extraordinary idea: that people at the very edge of death, often adventurers or explorers, experience a benevolent presence beside them who encourages them to make one final effort to survive. If only a handful of people had ever experienced the Third Man, it might be dismissed as an unusual delusion but over the years the experience has occurred again and again: to mountaineers, divers, polar explorers, prisoners of war, solo sailors, aviators, astronauts and 9/11 survivors. All have escaped traumatic events only to tell strikingly similar stories of having experienced the close presence of a helper or guardian. In The Third Man Factor John Geiger combines history, scientific analysis and great adventure stories to explain this secret to survival, the Third Man who - in the words of legendary Italian climber Reinhold Messner - ''leads you out of the impossible''.

The January Man - Christopher Somerville

'Evocatively written and charming' – Countryfile‘. The January Man is the story of a year of walks that was inspired by a song, Dave Goulder's `The January Man'. Month by month, season by season and region by region, Christopher Somerville walks the British Isles, following routes that continually bring his father to mind. As he travels the country - from the winter floodlands of the River Severn to the lambing pastures of Nidderdale, the towering seabird cliffs on the Shetland Isle of Foula in June and the ancient oaks of Sherwood Forest in autumn - he describes the history, wildlife, landscapes and people he encounters, down back lanes and old paths, in rain and fair weather. This exquisitely written account of the British countryside not only inspires us to don our boots and explore the 140,000 miles of footpaths across the British Isles, but also illustrates how, on long-distance walks, we can come to an understanding of ourselves and our fellow walkers. Over the hills and along the byways, Christopher Somerville examines what moulded the men of his father's generation - so reticent about their wartime experiences, so self-effacing, upright and dutiful - as he searches for `the man inside ...
