Cudzojazyčná / Anglická

The novel begins with events now a year old. Yvonne Hamilton had been found in her home murdered-handcuffed and naked. The Thames Valley Police had supposed robbery, but their suspects had dissolved and all the leads had dried up. A year later, while Morse is on furlough, two anonymous calls to Chief Superintendent Strange open the possibility of a new line of inquiry. Strange wants his best man on the case. Morse, however, shows a surprising reluctance to embroil himself in what seems to be a classic Morsean puzzle. When he finally does reopen the investigation, his unorthodox approach worries even his longtime sidekick, Sergeant Lewis, who begins to suspect that his boss has a personal connection to the victim. What could Morse be up to? And--as many readers will be asking throughout-what could possibly bring his career to a close? ...v angličtine, brožovaná, 450 strán, menší formát

The Knave of Diamonds

Spisovatel: Dell Ethel M., LP 1974
Katalogové číslo: H540

1912. Dell, British writer, began writing at a young age. Most of her stories were stories of passion and love set in India and other British colonial possessions. "The Knave of Diamonds begins": There came a sudden blare of music from the great ballroom below, and the woman who stood alone at an open window on the first floor shrugged her shoulders and shivered a little. The night air blew in brisk and cold upon her uncovered neck, but except for that slight, involuntary shiver she scarcely seemed aware of it. The room behind her was brilliantly lighted but empty. Some tables had been set for cards, but the cards were untouched. Either the attractions of the ballroom had remained omnipotent, or no one had penetrated to this refuge of the bored - no one save this tall and stately woman robed in shimmering, iridescent green, who stood with her face to the night, breathing the chill air as one who had been on the verge of suffocation. It was evidently she who had flung up the window. Her gloved hands leaned upon the woodwork on each side of it. There was a certain constraint in her whole attitude, a tension that was subtly evident in every graceful line.... v angličtine, tvrdá väzba, bez obalu, väčší formát, 580 strán

During the summer of 1997, the year of the comet, four people reach a turning point: Alice Valentine, who lies gravely ill in her West Country home; her younger son, still searching for a sense of direction; his brother, fighting to keep his acting career and marriage afloat; and László Lázár, who leads a charmed life of exile in Paris yet is plagued by his memories of the 1956 Hungarian uprising. For each the time has come to assess what matters in life, to grapple with sex, love, morality and destiny. And all will take part in an act of liberation - though not necessarily the one foreseen...... v angličtine, brožovaná, 323 strán
