Sex författare.
En privat ö.
Sjuttiotvå timmar som kommer att förändra deras liv.
Arthur Fletch, en av världens mest säljande deckarförfattare, är ett tillbakadraget geni känd för sina ikoniska huvudpersoner och djävulska intriger. När sex kämpande författare bjuds in till en helg på hans privata ö upptäcker de en fruktansvärd hemlighet: Fletch är död och hans bok är inte färdigskriven.
Författarna ges nu chansen att skriva klart boken och i och med det möjligheten att äntligen kunna få fart på sina egna stagnerade författarkarriärer.
Det finns dock en hake. De har bara sjuttiotvå timmar på sig.
Det är den perfekta intrigen. Men hur ska den sluta?

”Ni kommer att bli mördad…” Så lyder det första hotbrevet till King Bendigo, världens rikaste man och vapenprofitör. Deckarförfattaren Ellery Queen och hans far, kommissarie Richard Queen vid New Yorks mordkommission, får i uppdrag att komma till Bendigos privata ö och ta reda på vem som skrivit hotbreven. Brevskrivaren påstår sig kunna döda Bendigo vid en på förhand angiven tidpunkt – en tidpunkt när Bendigo befinner sig inlåst i ett hermetiskt slutet rum. Men kommer han levande ur det? Ellery Queen betraktas allmänt som en av de främsta författarna inom den klassiska deckarlitteraturen (cirka 1920 – 1970). Agatha Christie, John Dickson Carr och Ellery Queen utgör en oöverträffad trio från deckargenrens guldålder, där huvudvikten lades på att förbluffa läsarna med kluriga intriger och ”omöjliga” brott. Bakom pseudonymen Ellery Queen stod de amerikanska kusinerna Frederic Dannay och Manfred B. Lee. Tillsammans skrev de 39 romaner 1929 – 1971 och därtill sex novellsamlingar. Huvudperson i de flesta av böckerna är deckarförfattaren Ellery Queen – alltså samma namn som Dannay och Lee använde sig av som pseudonym. Till de bästa av deras detektivromaner brukar räknas: Konsthandlarens kista (1932), Mr Queen har otur (1942), Katt med många svansar (1949) och den experimentella Och på åttonde dagen… (1964). Kungen är död var deras tjugosjätte roman. Extra: Boken innehåller dessutom Queen-novellen Bröllopsdagen från 1967!

Hollywoodstjärnan Marcia Tait hittas mördad på en lantegendom utanför London. Vem mördade henne? Och hur lyckades mördaren undvika att lämna några fotspår i nysnön? För att lösa dessa gåtor tillkallas krigsministeriets sir Henry Merrivale, även kallad H. M., specialist på ”omöjliga brott”. Överraskningarna duggar tätt i denna deckarklassiker. Boken avslutas med en extra novell av Carter Dickson: Mordet på Orientklubben. Originalets titlar: The White Priory Murders (1934) och Death in the Dressing-Room (1939). Bakom pseudonymen Carter Dickson gömde sig ingen mindre än låsta-rummet-specialisten John Dickson Carr. Mellan åren 1934 och 1953 skrev han 22 romaner om H. M. Boken inleds med ett förord av Carr-experten Per Olaisen.

The acclaimed New York Times bestselling author of A Woman Is No Man returns with a striking exploration of the expectations of Palestinian-American women, the meaning of a fulfilling life, and the ways our unresolved pasts affect our presents."After Yara is placed on probation at work for fighting with a racist coworker, her Palestinian mother claims the provocation and all that’s come after were the result of a family curse. While Yara doesn’t believe in old superstitions, she finds herself unpacking her strict, often volatile childhood growing up in Brooklyn, looking for clues as to why she feels so unfulfilled in a life her mother could only dream of. Etaf Rum’s follow-up to her 2019 debut, A Woman Is No Man, is a complicated mother-daughter drama that looks at the lasting effects of intergenerational trauma and what it takes to break the cycle of abuse." —Time magazine, "The Most Anticipated Books of the Year"

Grab your cocktail shaker, you are heading back to the Roaring Twenties. Cloistered behind secret doors, hidden from view except for those in the know, password protected, and only discussed in hushed tones, the idea of a speakeasy is thrilling. Many Prohibition-era cocktails were inspired by those of pre-Prohibition, but the dubious moonshine whiskies and bathtub gins had to be masked with citrus and fruit juices, ginger ales, colas and other flavours. The result? Some of the most-loved and enduring classics that we enjoy today. Speakeasy Cocktails is a curated collection of 50 recipes ranging from the iconic Dirty Martini to the zesty Southside and the decadent Manhattan, all organised by era of invention. With a deco-inspired foiled cover and photography throughout, this is the perfect gift for every cocktail lover, be they a novice bartender or seasoned mixologist.

Tar Heel Lightnin'
How Secret Stills and Fast Cars Made North Carolina the Moonshine Capital of the World
Inbunden, Engelska, 2019

Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
From the late nineteenth century well into the 1960s, North Carolina boasted some of the nation's most restrictive laws on alcohol production and sale. For much of this era, it was also the nation's leading producer of bootleg liquor. Over the years, written accounts, popular songs, and Hollywood movies have turned the state's moonshiners, fast cars, and frustrated Feds into legends. But in Tar Heel Lightnin', Daniel S. Pierce tells the real history of moonshine in North Carolina as never before. This well-illustrated, entertaining book introduces a surprisingly varied cast of characters who operated secret stills and ran liquor from the swamps of the Tidewater to Piedmont forests and mountain coves. From the state's earliest days through Prohibition to the present, Pierce shows that moonshine crossed race and economic lines, linking men and women, the rebellious and the respectable, the oppressed and the merely opportunistic. As Pierce recounts, even churchgoing types might run shipments of "that good ol' mountain dew" when hard times came and there was no social safety net to break the fall. Folklore, popular culture, and changing laws have helped fuel a renaissance in making and drinking commercial moonshine, and Pierce shows how today's producers understand their ties to the past. Above all, this book reveals that moonshine's long, colorful history features surprises that can change how we understand a state and a region.
