Drageungernes café (Sprayed edges) - A.t. Qureshi - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

Drageungernes café (Sprayed edges) - A.t. Qureshi - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

Da Saphira åbnede sin café for drageunger og deres mennesker, havde hun ikke forventet, at det ville blive så svært at holde sig oven vande. Det viser sig, at drageunger ikke er de bedste magiske dyr at invitere ind i en café, og alle de brændte møbler koster Saphira mere, end hun kan nå at tjene på sin drageristede kaffe. Aiden er en lokal gartner, og lokal hjerteknuser, der er mere interesseret i sine planter end at tilbringe tid med sin uartige drageunge. Da Aiden kommer forbi Saphiras café, får han en genial idé: han vil bede Saphira om at træne sin drageunge, og han betaler hende nok til at holde caféen kørende. Saphiras ubekymrede sind ser ikke ud til at gøre andet end at irritere den gnavne (men smukke) Aiden, der dog lader til at dukke op hvor end hun befinder sig. Kan denne dragecaféejer redde en synkende skude og måske finde kærligheden undervejs?

Elevator Pitch - Linwood Barclay - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

Elevator Pitch - Linwood Barclay - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

“As fast as a falling elevator…a shameless good time.” —Joe Hill, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author It all begins on a Monday, when four people board an elevator in a Manhattan office tower. Each presses a button for their floor, but the elevator proceeds, nonstop, to the top. Once there, the doors don’t open. Instead, the elevator begins to descend floor by floor. Then it plummets. Right to the bottom of the shaft. It appears to be a random accident. But on Tuesday, it happens again, in a different Manhattan skyscraper. And then Wednesday brings yet another tragic high-rise catastrophe. In only three days, one of the most vertical cities in the world is plunged into chaos. Clearly, this is a cold, calculated bid to terrorize the city. Fearing for their lives, thousands of people who work in high-rises across the city refuse to leave their homes. Commerce has slowed to a trickle. The mayor, already embroiled in a growing scandal, is desperate for answers. Who is behind this? Are these deadly acts of sabotage connected to a fingerless body found on the High Line? Two seasoned New York detectives and a straight-shooting journalist must race against time to uncover the truth before the city’s newest, and tallest, residential tower has its ribbon-cutting on Thursday. “A white-knuckled ride…with twists on every level…. I gulped it down.” — Gilly Macmillan, New York Times Bestselling Author

The Blueprint - Rae Giana Rashad - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

The Blueprint - Rae Giana Rashad - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

“ The Blueprint is an astounding work, an unflinching portrait of misogyny and racism in a speculative world terrifyingly close to our own. Rae Giana Rashad chronicles the generational ghosts of womanhood, and how we understand ourselves through the stories of those we come from, in a way I’ve never read before. A remarkable new talent, and a timeless literary voice.” —Ashley Audrain, New York Times bestselling author of The Push In the vein of Octavia E. Butler and Margaret Atwood, a harrowing novel set in an alternate United States—a world of injustice and bondage in which a young Black woman becomes the concubine of a powerful white government official and must face the dangerous consequences. Solenne Bonet lives in Texas where choice no longer exists. An algorithm determines a Black woman’s occupation, spouse, and residence. Solenne finds solace in penning the biography of Henriette, an ancestor who’d been an enslaved concubine to a wealthy planter in 1800s Louisiana. But history repeats itself when Solenne, lonely and naïve, finds herself entangled with Bastien Martin, a high-ranking government official. Solenne finds the psychological bond unbearable, so she considers alternatives. With Henriette as her guide, she must decide whether and how to leave behind all she knows. Inspired by the lives of enslaved concubines to U.S. politicians and planters, The Blueprint unfolds over dual timelines to explore bodily autonomy, hypocrisy, and power imbalances through the lens of the nation’s most unprotected: a Black girl.

Elevator Pitch - Linwood Barclay - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

Elevator Pitch - Linwood Barclay - Bog - HarperCollins - Plusbog.dk

"One hell of a suspense novel." — Stephen King The New York Times bestselling author of A Noise Downstairs and No Time for Goodbye returns with an edge-of-your-seat thriller that does for elevators what Psycho did for showers and Jaws did for the beach—a heart-pounding tale in which a series of disasters paralyzes New York City with fear. It all begins on a Monday, when four people board an elevator in a Manhattan office tower. Each presses a button for their floor, but the elevator proceeds, non-stop, to the top. Once there, it stops for a few seconds, and then plummets. Right to the bottom of the shaft. It appears to be a horrific, random tragedy. But then, on Tuesday, it happens again, in a different Manhattan skyscraper. And when Wednesday brings yet another high-rise catastrophe, one of the most vertical cities in the world—and the nation’s capital of media, finance, and entertainment—is plunged into chaos. Clearly, this is anything but random. This is a cold, calculated bid to terrorize the city. And it’s working. Fearing for their lives, thousands of men and women working in offices across the city refuse to leave their homes. Commerce has slowed to a trickle. Emergency calls to the top floors of apartment buildings go unanswered. Who is behind this? Why are they doing it? What do these deadly acts of sabotage have to do with the fingerless body found on the High Line? Two seasoned New York detectives and a straight-shooting journalist must race against time to find the answers before the city’s newest, and tallest, residential tower has its ribbon-cutting on Thursday. With each diabolical twist, Linwood Barclay ratchets up the suspense, building to a shattering finale. Pulsating with tension, Elevator Pitch is a riveting tale of psychological suspense that is all too plausible . . . and will chill readers to the bone.
