Sinossi

All day the storm had been gathering behind Chimney Mountain and peering around the edges of that giant with a scowling brow, now and again; and all day there had been strainings of the wind and sounds of dim confusion in the upper air, but not until the evening did the storm break. A broad, yellow-cheeked moon was sailing up the eastern sky when ten thousand wild horses of darkness rushed out from behind Mount Chimney and covered the sky with darkness. Dashes and scatterings of rain and hail began to clang on the tin roofs in the valley, and the wind kept up a continual insane whining, now and then leaping against window or door and shaking them in an impatient frenzy.

    The most dangerous lies are the ones we tell ourselves. 
     
     
     
    When the man calling himself Archie Leach begins spotting his dead lover at random locations around the city, he must finally stop running and face the truth—which may not be quite as he's remembered it all these years. An American living in Australia, Archie's had so many aliases that when he wakes up handcuffed to a hospital bed, he almost forgets which one he's supposed to use. With his delivery job derailed by a brief and inconvenient death, he's earned the wrath of his underworld boss, landing him an exorbitant repayment plan and the commandeering of his apartment for everything from corpse storage to Tuesday night yoga class. 
     
     
     
    While recovering from his injuries, Archie is roped into dog-sitting for his new neighbor, Nisha, and a reluctant friendship ensues. She introduces Archie to the strange world of the Orrery, a nine-story mecca of surreal hedonism whose ninth level promises to hold the answers they're both seeking. But Nisha has spun plenty of her own deceptions, as Archie realizes too late. At this rate, they may both end up dead without ever knowing who's been fooling whom.

The story follows Prince Lev Myshkin, a man of extraordinary kindness and sincerity, who returns to Russia after years of medical treatment abroad. His innocence and honesty set him apart from the manipulative society he encounters, where people view his goodness as either weakness or foolishness.As Myshkin navigates the complexities of high society, he becomes entangled in a web of relationships, each testing his ideals and moral strength. Dostoevsky uses his protagonist to pose fundamental questions about human nature, love, and the struggle between purity and corruption. The Idiot is a moving and thought-provoking novel that challenges readers to consider whether true goodness can survive in a world filled with deception and cruelty.

    I’d given up everything to fight for the Resistance. But nothing prepared me for discovering my sister was a traitor. Kept by a Nazi SS officer, outwardly she barely resembles my beloved Justine anymore. 
    But I guessed her secret. About her beautiful, fragile little child. The baby she’ll do anything to protect. And I believe that deep down she still knows what is right. 
    As the Nazis threaten everything we ever held dear, I know I have one chance. I must convince her to betray the evil she seems to have chosen. I need her to find her true self once more. 
    Because I need her to join the fight… 
    Could you choose your country – and what is right – over the person you once loved more than anyone in the world?
