U góry okładki: A novel by the New York Times bestselling author of "The winner".

When cop-turned-attorney John Fiske comes to Washington to investigate his brother's murder, he unearths decades-old secrets and discovers the truth is anything but simple.

The one man who can help John, the one man who knows what really happened more than two decades ago has escaped from prison and is running for his life.

In his new novel of corruption, romance, family, and justice at the heart of the American republic, David Baldacci takes us on a journey of harrowing conspiracy, and proves once again that in the realm of suspense, he is in a league of his own.

They are the most chronicled family on the face of the globe. Their every move attracts headlines. Scores of books have tried and failed to penetrate the royal facade. Now Kitty Kelley has gone behind palace walls to provide the first three-dimensional, comprehensive, and evenhanded portrait of the men and women who make up the British Royal family...

...Illuminating the Windsors' arrogance, naï veté , and lusts as well as hard work, dedication, and ability to survive the most humiliating disclosures, "The Royals" is Kitty Kelley's richest, most iconoclastic, historically significant, and compelling work.

Bibligrafia na stronach 219-246.

Thank god for Michael Moore because Dude, Where's My Country tells us precisely what went wrong, and, more importantly, how to fix things. In a voice that is fearless, funny, and furious, Moore takes readers to the edge of righteous laughter and divine revenge.

After publishing Stupid White Men, an earlier work, Michael Moore was accused of not providing references to back up his statements. As a response to this, Dude, Where's My Country? includes thorough references.

In the book, Moore attacks corporate America and President George W. Bush, whom he accuses of destroying "my America of tolerance and peace". He lashes out against the 2003 Iraq War in particular. The Enron Corporation, and particularly Chairman Ken Lay, also received a lot of attention.

Na okładce: The new Scarpetta novel.

Dr. Kay Scarpetta, now freelancing from South Florida, returns to the city that turned its back on her five years ago.

When she arrives, however, Scarpetta finds that nothing is as she expected: her former lab is in the final stages of demolition; the inept chief isn't the one who requested her after all; her old assistant chief has developed personal problems that he won't reveal; and a glamorous FBI agent, whom Scarpetta dislikes instantly, meddles with the case.

Deprived of assistance from colleagues Benton and Lucy, who are embroiled in what appears to be an unrelated attempted rape by a stalker, Scarpetta is faced with investigating the death of a fourteen-year-old girl, working with the smallest pieces of evidence - traces that only the most thorough hunters can identify.

She must follow the twisting leads and track the strange details in order to make the dead speak - and to reveal the sad truth that may be more than even she can bear...
