  'Delightful... if you love Richard Osman's books, this will be right up your street' TRIP FICTION
  
  After a gruelling stint as the most powerful woman in the world, Angela can finally put her feet up. With her quantum-chemist husband Achim, her bodyguard Mike and their new pug Putin, she has retired to the idyllic north German village of Kleinfreudenstadt-on-Dumpfsee.
  
  But it isn't easy to settle into country life. Baking and hiking just aren't as exciting as global financial meltdowns or deranged American presidents. And Angela's fellow villagers all seem to want something, from her xenophobic AfD-voting namesake to the local aristocrat desperate to bury her family's Nazi past.
  
  So when the eccentric Baron von Baugenwitz is found poisoned in a castle dungeon locked from the inside, new life stirs in Angela. Finally, a problem to solve! Supported by her team of helpers – foremost among them the doughty Putin – she embarks on a perilous hunt for the killer. Will she succeed? Or will one of the six women suspects finish her off first?
  This is a warm, funny and sometimes touching read with a compelling mystery at its core – cosy crime Deutschland-style!

  A Night in the Lonesome October

  Loyally accompanying a mysterious knife-wielding gentleman named Jack on his midnight rounds through the murky streets of London, good dog Snuff is busy helping his master collect the grisly ingredients needed for an unearthly rite that  
  will take place not long after the death of the moon. But Snuff and his master are not alone. All manner of participants, both human and not, are gathering with their ancient tools and their animal familiars in preparation for the dread night. It  
  is brave, devoted Snuff who must calculate the patterns of the Game and keep track of the Players—the witch, the mad monk, the vengeful vicar, the Count who sleeps by day, the Good Doctor and the hulking Experiment Man he fashioned  
  from human body parts, and a wild-card American named Larry Talbot—all the while keeping Things at bay and staying a leap ahead of the Great Detective, who knows quite a bit more than he lets on.  
   
  Boldly original and wildly entertaining, A Night in the Lonesome October is a darkly sparkling gem, an amalgam of horror, humor, mystery, and fantasy. First published in 1993, it was Zelazny’s last book prior to his untimely death. Many  
  consider it the best of the fantasy master’s novels. It has inspired many fans to read it every year in October, a chapter a day, and served as inspiration for Neil Gaiman’s brilliant story “Only the End of the World Again.”

  Second Sister

  • 0

  A reclusive Hong Kong PI and hacker investigates a teenager’s mysterious death in this technological thriller by the author of The Borrowed. 
   
  A schoolgirl—Siu-Man—has committed suicide, leaping from her twenty-second floor window to the pavement below. Siu-Man is an orphan and the librarian older sister who’s been raising her refuses to believe there was no foul play—nothing seemed amiss. She contacts a man known only as N.—a hacker, and an expert in cybersecurity and manipulating human behavior. But can Nga-Yee interest him sufficiently to take her case, and can she afford it if he says yes? 
   
  What follows is a cat and mouse game through the city of Hong Kong and its digital underground, especially an online gossip platform, where someone has been slandering Siu-Man. The novel is also populated by a man harassing girls on mass transit; high school kids, with their competing agendas and social dramas; a Hong Kong digital company courting an American venture capitalist; and the Triads, market women and noodle shop proprietors who frequent N.’s neighborhood of Sai Wan. In the end it all comes together to tell us who caused Siu-Man’s death and why, and to ask, in a world where online and offline dialogue has increasingly forgotten about the real people on the other end, what the proper punishment is. 
   
  “Readers will savor every twist and turn of Chan Ho-Kei’s tour de force. . . . Second Sister is a masterclass on the vagaries of our digital age.” —Criminal Element 
   
  “[A] clever, twisty novel. . . . Fans of hacker thrillers such as Stieg Larsson’s Lisbeth Salander books will be amply rewarded.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review, PW Pick 
   
  “Virtually irresistible, with twisty-turny, didn't-see-that-coming manipulations guaranteed to keep readers wide awake into the wee hours. . . . For readers, the provocative mix of urgent contemporary issues and page-turning action won't disappoint.” —Shelf Awareness
