An einem verlassenen Hafen steht eine einsame, alte Fischerhütte. Dort genießen die Coreys ihren verdienten Ruhestand, doch seit einigen Tagen sind draußen im nächtlichen Nebel Geräusche zu hören. Boote, die an den maroden Stegen anzulegen scheinen, Schritte und Rufe und über allem das Schreien eines Säuglings.

Dr. Zephyre, Dave und Nina übernehmen den Fall, bei dem sie es mit einer Erscheinung zu tun haben, die niemand von ihnen in dieser Form bislang erlebt hat.

Members Reviews:

An OK read

A generally OK read if you have read the previous books, however, again it jumps around too much between timelines and is hard to follow unless you can read a large amount at once.

but I recommend the first two just for the joy

The Dead is a long-awaited book for me â I read The Sentinel and The Exile as soon as they were released, so I pounced on this as well. The Dead is the final in the trilogy of Franco-lover Guzman and the modern-day investigator Ana Maria Galindez, who is literally about to have history come back to bite her.

The Dead moves at such a fast pace you need to make sure you are stable in your seat. You could read The Dead on its own, but I recommend the first two just for the joy. The book lives is in three time periods; 2010, where Galindez is looking for Guzman, whom she has been tracking after forensic evidence put him in the centre of multiple murders and torturing incidents during the Franco regime. The book keeps jumping around, entering 1982, where Guzman runs the Brigada Especial; Franco is dead and the âgloryâ days of being able to be a vicious fascist is over. Spain is concreting over its past and wants democracy to work. Guzman has one last mission, and wants to end his enemies. What I love is the little flashbacks to 1965, and Inspector Villanuevo who lives in tiny Llanto del Moro. A policeman living under Franco is bound to get caught up in something nasty.

Even with three time periods, the storyline gallops along, the flashbacks filling in details as Galindez tracks Guzman to the bitter ended. The reality of life under Franco and those fragile years post-death swaps out to Spain 2010, not exactly a prosperous time, but at least free. Those who were murdered in Francoâs name, those who are the âdisappearedâ and the selling of babies all comes back to haunt Spain and Guzman in his final stand.

In Oldfieldâs version, the story is more important than history, so it can appeal to a wide range. The series is neatly tied up and at least some of Spainâs ghost are laid to rest. Reading this made me want to dump all my own work and write another Spanish historical fiction immediately.

Four Stars

Confusing and exciting!

Language: English

Release date: 08-31-17

Publisher's Summary:

Belfast, 1993: Jackie Shaw is a young tearaway running with paramilitaries in Belfast. He treads a fine line keeping psychotic hard-man Rab Simpson in check while sleeping with gang leader Billy Tyrie's beautiful wife on the side.

The first in the Jackie Shaw series, Ravenhill is a stunning debut novel from a brilliant new voice in crime fiction.

Members Reviews:

Gritty, Brutal and Unrelenting

Although I visited Northern Ireland a couple of times it was only through friends that I got any real level of understanding of what life could be like for those living there. The conflict was as unrelenting as it was brutal and if for no other reason I can recommend Ravenhill as it hands out punishment from the get go barely pausing to take breath before the ending. Conflict of this nature has an insidious nature and feeds on the chaos that it, itself creates with revenge killings and tit for tat attacks. As such there is no let up for those caught up in it. The all-consuming need to fight the cause trumps all logic or reason and so it becomes near impossible not to take sides. What this book does is to bring this to life in a way I haven't seen done quite this well before. Gerald Seymour wrote some great books in this area, possibly more balanced in terms of storyline but even he doesn't convey that constant pressure quite so vividly.

The whole thing has a strong authentic feel which is helped by Drew Dillon's genuinely local narration. The action is fast-paced and at times stunningly brutal. If you are put off by gory or psychological violence then there are much gentler thrillers. The storyline includes interlinked episodes from Jacky Shaw's earlier life and the present day. It works pretty well but I did feel that I was almost being rushed from one violent episode to the next.

In short it's a really decent effort, particularly of course as it's a debut novel read by a debut (at least to Audible UK) narrator. Just be prepared that this one just slaps you and keeps on dishing it out until you get to the end. Not for the faint-hearted.

Awesome

This is the best book that I have listened so far in my entire life.

Members Reviews:

Corny and predictable

The performance/reading of the book was good (American) but the story itself was predictable and corny, so many cliches.

I kept waiting for the twist as I assumed it could be so obvious, but it was, thank goodness I used a free credit for this one!

Having resigned from Bishkek Murder Squad, Akyl Borubaev is a lone wolf with blood on his hands.

Then the Minister of State Security promises Akyl his old life back...if Akyl finds his vanished mistress.

The beautiful Natasha Sulonbekova has disappeared in Dubai with information that could destroy the Minister's career.

Discovering the truth plunges him into a deadly game that means he might never return to Kyrgyzstan...at least not alive.

Critic Reviews:

"Storytelling of the highest quality...Callaghan is a new voice to be welcomed." (Daily Mail)

"Even better than Child 44. Akyl Borubaev is a terrific creation." (Anthony Horowitz)

Members Reviews:

Unusual settings, appealing crime-solvers...

Am warming to this series. The inspector goes to Dubai this time, a slight disappointment because it was the very unfamiliar setting of his home country of Kyrgyzstan which first intrigued me, but it works. He reunites with his terrifying old partner in solving crime, Saltana, and together they dive in and out of impossibly dangerous predicaments. Worth sampling at the very least.

Title: The Seven Imperfect Rules of Elvira Carr

Author: Frances Maynard

Narrator: Charlie Sanderson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11 hrs and 6 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-24-17

Publisher: Macmillan Digital Audio

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

Funny, heartwarming and ultimately triumphant, The Seven Imperfect Rules of Elvira Carr is the perfect story for anyone who doesn't quite fit in - and for everyone who chooses not to.

Elvira Carr is 27 and neuro-atypical. Her father - whom she suspects was in the secret service - has passed away, and, after several Unfortunate Incidents growing up, she now spends most of her time at home with her overbearing mother. But when her mother has a stroke and is taken into care, Elvira is suddenly forced to look after herself or risk ending up in sheltered accommodation.

Armed with her Seven Rules, which she puts together after online research, Elvira hopes to learn how to navigate a world that's full of people she doesn't understand. Not even the Seven Rules can help her, however, when she discovers that everything she thought she knew about her father was a lie, and she is faced with solving a mystery she didn't even know existed.

Members Reviews:

Rules are made to be broken

Twenty-seven year old Elvira Carr has autism. She has been sheltered by her parents. When her father, who she idolizes, dies of a heart attack, she is left in the care of her mother. Her mother is an unhappy person and is very critical of Elvira. She will not even allow her to see her high school friend after they graduate. Then her mother has a stroke and must live in a nursing home. Elvira is on her own for the first time. Other than her next door neighbor she has no friends and no support system. She writes out a list of seven rules in order to help her navigate in the world. However, as she soon discovers, Neural-Typicals do not follow rules and they communicate in confusing figures of speech.

The story is about how Elvira grows up, grows as a person, and learns to understand ambiguity as best she can. She visits her mother who is essentially mute, she takes care of the house on a schedule, she learns to use a computer, and she gets a volunteer job at an animal sanctuary. There she meets some new friends. There are âIncidentsâ and feelings are hurt. In addition, Elvira is trying to solve some family mysteries. Her father was away from home a lot in Japan doing engineering or possibly secret work, or so she was lead to believe. I wonât say any more about that, though the truth is pretty transparent in the novel.

There seem to be a lot of books out about people with Autism or who fall somewhere along the Autism spectrum. There are also a lot of books about people who are not autistic, but just lack social skills. In fact, as I was reading this book, I felt like I had read it before (I had not). It is just so similar to other books in what is becoming a genre. Many seem to follow a formula, as does The Seven Rules. The main character is trying to fit in or to cope, there is some type of crisis, the main character develops relationships, relationships are confusing, and there is a happy resolution. This book reminds me most of The Rosie Project, so if you enjoyed that you will enjoy this. I gave this three stars because the plot was predictable. Though she did a nice job of developing the character of Elvira, I donât think that the author added anything new to my understanding of Autism or to this type of fiction. The writing was okay. I thought the plot also dragged on a bit and could have used some editing.
