Beschreibung

by JACK RAYMOND

A routine job turns into a nightmare. A lawyer becomes a target.

Insurance lawyer Alex Thorkild is supposed to simply inspect a €50 million asset in a secluded high-tech estate – a straightforward job at the end of his much-needed vacation. But the asset is Prometheus, the world's most advanced artificial intelligence. When a bizarre experiment ends in a deadly catastrophe, Alex goes from investigator to prime suspect – and target.

Hunted by a ruthless team of mercenaries and betrayed by the people he should trust most, he begins a desperate escape through the wilderness. His only hope is an unlikely alliance with a mysterious spy and the brilliant creator of the AI. But as they fight for survival, Alex realizes that far more than stolen technology is at stake. It's a weapon that could plunge the world into chaos.

In a race against time, a man whose only weapon so far has been the fine print in contracts must win a game whose rules he doesn't know. Because in this game, he is the decisive disruptive factor.

    A new standalone legal thriller from the international bestselling author of GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.Charlie Webb is a third rate lawyer who graduated from a third rate law-school and, because he couldn’t get hired by any of the major law firms, has opened his own law firm, where he gets by handling cases for dubious associates from his youth and some court appointed cases. Described as “a leaky boat floating down the stream of life,” Charlie has led unremarkable life, personally and professionally. Until he’s appointed to be the attorney for a decidedly crackpot artist who calls himself Guido Sabatini (born Lawrence Weiss). Sabatini has been arrested – again – for breaking into a restaurant and stealing back a painting he sold them because he was insulted by where it was displayed. But as Lawrence Weiss, he’s also an accomplished card shark and burglar and while he was there, he stole a thumb drive from the owner’s safe.Not knowing what else Sabatani has stolen, Webb negotiates the return of the painting and “other items’ for the owner dropping charges against Sabatini. But the contents of the flash drive threatens very powerful figures who are determined to retrieve it, the restaurant owner (Gretchen Hall) and her driver (Yuri Makarov) are being investigated for the sex trafficking of minors, and there are others who have a violent grudge against Sabatini. When a minor theft case becomes a double homicide, and even more, Charlie Webb, an insignificant lawyer assigned to an insignificant case, is faced with the most important, and deadliest, case of his life. Going back to his long-time bestselling roots, Phillip Margolin returns with a brilliant standalone legal thriller in the tradition of John Grisham.A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

    From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff comes an uncomfortably hilarious Mystery with a heaping help of sexual frustration, THE LIBRARIAN’S VAMPIRE ASSISTANT, Book Three. (Yep! It’s a STAND-ALONE. But why not read them all because…fun!) 
    FALLING IN LOVE WITH A LIBRARIAN JUST CAN’T GET MORE AWKWARD... 
    Michael Vanderhorst is not your usual vampire. For starters, he works in a library, is in love with Miriam, his hot nerdy human boss who has no clue what he is, and he looks like a college student. 
    In reality, Michael is an ancient deadly vampire, an ex-assassin, and is currently the de facto king of his kind ever since their ruling party disappeared. To where? He doesn’t know, but if he wants his life back, he’ll have to find out. (Mystery!) Especially because a civil war is brewing, and being king makes his librarian a mark for his enemies. She is, after all, his biggest weakness. 
    With a global uprising about to explode, Michael must give her the protection of his army. Only one problem: She must become his queen first. But every attempt he makes to tell her the truth is met with extreme hostility. “Vampires aren’t real. That’s crazy talk, Michael!” Clearly, the topic frightens her. 
    With time running out and her life on the line, Michael is left with one option: Marry her. Without her knowing. 
    Can he pull it off? And what will happen when the fight comes to their door?
