Cudzojazyčná / Anglická

This suspenseful thriller, set in the English moor country, revolves around the arrival of a fugitive who warns of a threat of nuclear terrorism and a possible plot to establish a police state--a tale that seems incredible until events at the local nuclear reactor plant seem to bear him out. Added to all this is a triangular romance between the hunted man and a local naturalist and his girlfriend, as well as loving and beautiful descriptions of the moor and its birds and plants. This otherwise exciting novel is burdened with some gratuitous and graphic sex scenes that add nothing to the story... tvrdá väzba, obal, 280 strán

Rumours of War

Spisovatel: Mallinson Allan, Bantam Books 2007
Katalogové číslo: E7412

1826: Napoleon Bonaparte is dead, the Congress of Vienna's work is done, and there is peace in Europe. However, in Portugal there is the scent of civil war in the air following the death of King John VI.

But it is not only Spanish aggression and ghosts from his past that Matthew must confront. Lady Katherine has arrived in the Peninsula, and with very determined intentions.... v angličtine, brožovaná, 555 strán
