        Ein angesehener Privatbankier wird erpresst. In einem Luxushotel wird ein Escort-Girl brutal ermordet und die Vereinten Nationen sind Ziel eines Anschlagplans islamistischer Terrorristen.    In dem ersten Teil der Thriller-Trilogie »Geneva Girl – Todesursache unbekannt« geht es um Schwarzgeld, Mord und Terrorgefahr in einer der teuersten Städte der Welt: Genf. Im Mittelpunkt des Buches steht eine deutsche Praktikantin bei den Vereinten Nationen, die an Angststörungen und Klaustrophobie leidet, und zwischen die Fronten von Geheimdienst und Diplomatie gerät. Es handelt sich um eine brisante Mischung aus Psycho- und Politthriller. Die Idee zu dem Roman lieferte der nie aufgeklärte Tod des ehemaligen Ministerpräsidenten von Schleswig-Holstein Uwe Barschel im Genfer Hotel Beau-Rivage.

        THE POOP WORKBOOK SERIES

        by BUNKYOSHA

        8 million copies sold! (series total)   The Poop Series which was first published in 2017 turned out to be a revolutionary workbook for kids and parents in Japan. This series sold 36 thousand copies in the first run, and then more than 140 thousand by the next month. It's been at the top of Japan's educational workbook ranking since then and continues to have strong presence especially throughout the pandemic.   What is so magical about the Poop Series? Well, we've created a workbook which follows a concept that no one dared to associate with studying, and that does the magic! Kids just love the naughty stuff. But the workbook is actually far from naughty. The goals are purely educational, just like all other workbooks. It's our original idea of the coexistence of education and entertainment.   We have an enormous selection of Poop Workbooks from Japanese language, mathematics, English (as a foreign language), and thinking skills for kids from age 2 and above.

      • Ragazzo italiano (Italian Boy)

        by Gian Arturo Ferrari

        Ninni is a child of postwar Italy. His life traverses hardships recalling the industrial revolution in provincial Lombardy, the decline of rural civilization in Emilia, and the explosion of life of in a Milan undergoing reconstruction. Through it all, Ninni learns about the pitfalls of emotions, suffering, and the pain hidden even in the closest bonds. As a boy, thanks to his grandmother, he discovers he can leverage the immense continent of experiences and emotions that books open wide before his eyes. Having become aware of himself and his wearying autonomy, the boy carves out, in the name of curiosity and the will to know, what promises to be his place in the world. The story of Ragazzo italiano (Italian Boy) reflects the history of the whole country – the harshness, poverty, anxiety about the future – the story of a generation born of the war but determined to carry out projects and dreams beyond that tragedy. An Italy where school is the springboard for social advancement, and the future is crowded with expectations and promises. An Italy still alive in the deep memory of the country, in the familiar vicissitudes of many Italians. Ferrari gives it body and breath, without any self-indulgence, with a crystalline and austere style, often raw, and a timbre of courageous sincerity. Able to express the freshness of the protagonist and a multitude of flashing characters of the future. “Once the ties with the nest were cut – eliminating, in practice, obligations and duties – Ninni, to his intimate amazement, discovered that other things were left and they existed. Indeed, he existed.”

        A Dixie Christmas

        by Sandra Hill

        Two magnolias-and-mistletoe-inspired holiday stories from the bestselling author of more than thirty romantic, humorous novels. Laughter and love combine in Sandra Hill’s BLUE CHRISTMAS—with a touch of Elvis magic. Wealthy Wall Street businessman Clayton Jessup III has only one reason for arriving in Memphis a few days before Christmas—to sell off his inheritance, an embarrassingly kitschy hotel named The Blue Suede Suites. His feelings for the Land of Elvis are dark: his long-dead Memphis mother abandoned him and his dad when Clay was a baby, and now Clay wants nothing to do with a southern legacy that couldn’t be more different from his sophisticated big-city life. But then he steps in trouble—literally—when he confronts the bizarre group of Elvis impersonators who’ve set up a living Nativity scene on his property. One slip of a wingtip in some sheep poop lands Clay in the care of gorgeous Annie Fallon, whose big-haired Elvis-girlfriend get-up can’t hide her wholesome, sexy appeal. Annie and her brothers have set up the Nativity scene to earn some badly needed money for their struggling dairy farm. The last thing she needs is an angry Yankee with a concussion and a come-hither smile . . . In JINX CHRISTMAS, sexy NASCAR star Lance Caslow makes a last-ditch effort to win back his ex-wife Brenda. Five years ago, his reckless pursuit of racetrack fame tore them apart and broke Brenda’s heart. Now Lance shows up in Louisiana determined to make things right this Christmas, not just for himself and Brenda, but for their young daughter, Patti. He’s got his work cut out for him, and desperate measures are needed. Lance will do anything to prove he’s worthy of Brenda’s trust again—even join the Cajun Christmas show starring a raucous Cajun family whose menfolk dance for charity events in little more than a smile . . .

Each amazing plant adaptation is described through fact bubbles and easy-to-grasp blocks of text. End matter includes a list of sources for kids to explore, a glossary defining scientific terms, and an index. Brought to life with eye-popping cut-paper collage illustrations, this book is a garden of knowledge that will leave kids with a better understanding of how living things adapt to their environments.

        All Mouth and Codpiece

        by Roger Butters

        Through the perilous world of late mediaeval espionage strides the intrepid figure of Ancient Pistol, secret agent. Never at a loss for an insult or an anachronistic quotation from the Bard, Shakespeare’s vainglorious soldier has been entrusted by Thomas Mowbray, Duke of Norfolk, to investigate a matter of the utmost delicacy, involving as it does the fate of the mightiest in the land. Pistol would not be everyone’s choice for such a task, being a loud-mouthed, cowardly, drunken fathead. But before the monumental ineptitude of his blundering, the Machiavellian schemes of the mighty crumble and fall. Ridiculed, beaten, humiliated but undefeated, Pistol triumphs in the end. Historical spoof based on the antics of Shakespeare’s character Ancient Pistol. Sequel to All Wind and Pistol, published by Book Guild Publishing, Brighton, 2008. Approximately 65,000 words.
