  In the favelas of Porto Alegre, Brazil, marijuana is hard to come by. Supermarket stock clerks Pedro and Marques spend their days unloading trucks, restocking shelves, and dreaming of a better life, of breaking the cycle of poverty that has afflicted their families and their community. Well-acquainted with the drug dealers in their neighborhood and seeing an opportunity to earn a little extra cash, they decide to start a weed-dealing operation. 
   
   
   
  The economic hierarchies of Porto Alegre are turned upside down as, almost accidentally, the two men build a thriving enterprise and get rich, quickly. Distribution grows from dime bags to kilos, and Pedro and Marques begin to plan for a future where low-wage work will never again be a necessity for them and their families. All too soon however, their operation starts attracting outsider attention, and cracks in their carefully crafted and seemingly untouchable world begin to show, culminating in one final, lethal showdown. 
   
   
   
  A witty, voice-driven, and electrifying portrait of poverty and a canny examination of the ethics of drug dealing and low-wage labor in the underbelly of Brazil, Pedro and Marques Take Stock is a contemporary picaresque novel of class and crime.

  The Adventures of the Elderly Sherlock Holmes (Volume 6):
  London 1930. Sherlock Holmes, now 76 years old, lives a solitary life in Baker Street. Much in his life has changed. The good old Mrs Hudson has long since passed away. Her successor is her niece Alice Miller. Together with her husband Eddy, she never fails to keep an eye on Holmes and supports him in every respect. It seems almost inevitable that Alice Miller gets drawn into one adventure or another, and with her bold yet warm-hearted manner, she plays no small part in the successful outcome of events.
  The now retired Inspector Lestrade has been replaced by Inspector Wolfford. He maintains a respectful relationship with Holmes and holds the master detective in high regard.
  However, the greatest change in Holmes's life is undoubtedly the absence of his friend and partner Dr Watson. He numbs the pain through persistent drug use. Holmes has become withdrawn, moody, depressed, indeed almost lethargic.
  However, when after so many years since the Ripper murders, brutal killings of women begin again in London, Holmes's sensitivities can no longer be considered. Holmes thus resumes his active work as a detective. This pulls him out of his gloomy routine and does his soul good. Holmes wistfully remembers past days with Dr Watson, whose absence he still hasn't overcome. But a new case leads him directly to Dr Watson's trail. Can Holmes uncover the mystery surrounding his friend Watson, and can things ever return to how they were before?
  For Holmes could certainly use all the support he can get. There's a stolen family treasure to find and recover. Easier said than done! Then the young caretaker is found dead in his chamber... And no sooner is one case closed than another corpse appears. The wife of a wealthy businessman is found dead in Richmond Park. It quickly becomes clear that only a left-handed person could have committed the murder. Unfortunately, there are three suspects to choose from. One of them is the riding instructor, with whom the deceased had been having a passionate affair. But is the lover automatically the murderer?
