Yet another collection of linked short stories from Oppenheim. By chance a young man and woman meet and set up an agency to aid Scotland Yard, but is romance in the air? This story deals with a young man and a young woman who make an informal partnership in criminal investigation.
Vik Island weight-loss group, Losers Club, is on the mainland for the Police Scotland Bravery Awards and, even better, they’re staying in a posh hotel. With housekeeping trollies full of free stuff just lying about the place, waiting for the unwary pilferer, Mrs Hubbard’s only regret is that she didn’t bring a bigger handbag. Diet sheets have been abandoned and Gordon’s dungarees are straining at the seams, so what could be nicer than a gentle stroll up Bennachie to offset all those breakfast sausages? Anything. Anything could be nicer because this is no gentle stroll. When the Losers stumble upon the body of a young woman on the hillside, they quickly become entangled in a web of deceit surrounding local road protestors. The very police officers awarding them for bravery seem determined to write off the death as a drug overdose, and it is up to Losers Club to convince them otherwise. Soon, the hunt is on for an elusive whistleblower, and the Losers find themselves pitted against the establishment. As the conspiracy deepens and the bodies start piling up, they realise that they can trust no oneZum Buch

'One day, I should like my epitaph to read, "Here lies Arsène Lupin, adventurer".' The famed hero-thief masterfully created by Maurice Leblanc, Arsène Lupin, is back for another remarkable tale – one which revolves around crime, inheritance and a murky international conspiracy – and it's more suspenseful and shocking than ever. When Cosmo Mornington, a wealthy American, is pronounced dead, a large inheritance is up for grabs. He leaves his fortune to any living heir, leaving his good friend Don Luis Perenna in charge of finding them. But when Mornington's relatives start to mysteriously vanish or die, suspicion begins to fall on Don Luis. Lupin, disguised as Mornington's close acquaintance, sets out to unveil the truth behind the disappearances, and is led to a series of sinister crimes linked to a secret organisation called, 'The Teeth of the Tiger'. Action packed and intricately constructed, The Teeth of the Tiger cements Lupin as a true master of disguise, and Maurice Leblanc as a masterful writer of mystery. This audiobook edition is skilfully read by Rupert Degas. Maurice Leblanc (1864 – 1941) was a French journalist, novelist and short story writer. He was primarily known for inventing the fictional thief Arsène Lupin, often considered the French counterpart to Sherlock Holmes.Zum Buch
