Europe behind Walls

Laszlo Reti

Maison d'édition: Laszlo Reti

Synopsis

Europe, 2033.
 
The Wall is up.
 
It protects the continent's southern and eastern borders against millions of migrants.
 
It is six metres high. Watchtowers, machine guns, snipers. Fire order in force. Thousands die every year trying to cross The Wall.
 
Europe had to choose between its old values and security.
 
Europe chose security.
 
Europe closed its doors.
 
In this world Zsuzsa Radnai, an agent of the European Immigration Office, is trying to protect what is really important to her. Like the others: the young teacher at the University of Pest, the American investigative journalist, and the Muslim terrorist.
 
Europe or Eurabia?
 
Freedom or security?
 
Laszlo Reti tackles the issues that are increasingly defining our daily lives and our future.
 
The first edition of the novel was published in 2o15, the first year of the migrant crisis, under the title Behind the Walls. Since then, many of the events predicted in the novel have already happened.

Puzzle for Two

Josh Lanyon

Two can play at this game 
Fledging PI Zachariah Davies’s wealthy and eccentric client, toymaker Alton Beacher, wants to hire an investigator who can pose as his boyfriend while figuring out who is behind the recent attempts on his life. And Zach, struggling to save the business his father built, is just desperate enough to set aside his misgivings and take the job. 
But it doesn’t take long to realize all is not as it seems—and given that it all seems pretty weird, that’s saying something. The only person Zach can turn to for help is equally struggling, equally desperate, but a whole lot more experienced rival PI Flint Carey. 
Former Marine Flint has been waiting for Zach to throw in the towel and sell whatever’s left of the Davies Detective Agency to him. But when the inexperienced accountant-turned-shamus turns to him for help, Flint finds himself unwilling—or maybe unable—to say no.
