Irena's War
by James D. Shipman&“Shipman dazzles in this historical tour-de-force based on the real-life story of WWII Polish resistance fighter Irena Sendler . . . spellbinding." —Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)Based on the gripping true story of an unlikely Polish resistance fighter who helped save thousands of Jewish children from the Warsaw ghetto during World War II, bestselling author James D. Shipman&’s Irena&’s War is a heart-pounding novel of courage in action, helmed by an extraordinary and unforgettable protagonist. September 1939: The conquering Nazis swarm through Warsaw as social worker Irena Sendler watches in dread from her apartment window. Already, the city&’s poor go hungry. Irena wonders how she will continue to deliver food and supplies to those who need it most, including the forbidden Jews. The answer comes unexpectedly. Dragged from her home in the night, Irena is brought before a Gestapo agent, Klaus Rein, who offers her a position running the city&’s soup kitchens, all to maintain the illusion of order. Though loath to be working under the Germans, Irena learns there are ways to defy her new employer—including forging documents so that Jewish families receive food intended for Aryans. As Irena grows bolder, her interactions with Klaus become more fraught and perilous. Klaus is unable to prove his suspicions against Irena—yet. But once Warsaw&’s half-million Jews are confined to the ghetto, awaiting slow starvation or the death camps, Irena realizes that providing food is no longer enough. Recruited by the underground Polish resistance organization Zegota, she carries out an audacious scheme to rescue Jewish children. One by one, they are smuggled out in baskets and garbage carts, or led through dank sewers to safety—every success raising Klaus&’s ire. Determined to quell the uprising, he draws Irena into a cat-and-mouse game that will test her in every way—and where the slightest misstep could mean not just her own death, but the slaughter of those innocents she is so desperate to save.

by Pierre LemaitreNo volverás a leer del mismo modo una novela negra... El comandante Camille Verhoeven vive la vida perfecta: está casado con la maravillosa Irène, con la que espera su primer hijo. Pero su felicidad se resquebraja tras un asesinato inusualmente salvaje. Desde que la noticia se hace pública, la prensa lo acecha y cada uno de sus movimientos se convierte en noticia de portada. Verhoeven descubre que el asesino ha matado antes. Cada uno de sus crímenes parece rendir homenaje a una novela negra clásica, por lo que los periodistas se apresuran a darle un sobrenombre: "El Novelista". Quienes pueden ayudar a encontrarlo se suman a la lista de sospechosos: un librero y un profesor universitario expertos en novela negra. La investigación se convierte así en un duelo intelectual, y en una aterradora carrera contra el reloj. La novela negra más original y poderosa de los últimos años. La crítica ha dicho...«Evito leer novelas traducidas, pero leí a Pierre Lemaitre: un autor de novelas de suspense realmente excelente.»Stephen King «El comandante Verhoeven es un gran tipo y yo ya lo he subido al altar que ocupan Holmes, Maigret, Wexford o Harry Bosch. Un pedazo de personaje, vamos, cuyas aventuras, escritas por Pierre Lemaitre, se agrupan bajo el título común de La trilogía Verhoeven [...] La trilogía Verhoeven se lee de un tirón y desprende una melancolía notable por un mini poli adorable y la raza humana en general. No se la pierdan.»Ramón de España, El Periódico de Catalunya «Lemaitre, hoy por hoy, el mejor y más en forma novelista noir galo, un tipo capaz de pisarle los talones al maestro (Banville) Black, en destreza narrativa y musculoso magnetismo literario criminal [...] Una novela cinco estrellas llamada a figurar entre los clásicos del género.»Laura Fernández, El Cultural «Una novela homenaje, un libro que solo puede escribir un amante de la ficción criminal que además es un gran escritor, una obra que no deja indiferente, que divierte y hace sufrir. Una historia de violencia, de policías y de pérdidas.

Irene
by Frank Wynne Pierre LemaitreCamille Verhoeven, whose diminutive stature belies his fierce intensity, has reached an unusually content (for him) place in life. he is respected by his colleagues and he and his lovely wife, Irene, are expecting their first child.But when a new murder case hits his desk--a double torture-homicide that's so extreme that even the most seasoned officers are horrified-Verhoeven is overcome with a sense of foreboding. As links emerge between the bloody set-piece and at least one past unsolved murder, it becomes clear that a calculating serial killer is at work. The press has a field day, taking particular pleasure in putting Verhoeven under the media spotlight (and revealing uncomfortable details of his personal life). Then Verhoeven makes a breakthrough discovery: the murders are modeled after the exploits of serial killers from classic works of crime fiction. The double murder was an exquisitely detailed replication of a scene from Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho, and one of the linked cold cases was a faithful homage to James Ellroy's The Black Dahlia. The media circus reaches a fever pitch when the modus operandi of the killer, dubbed "The Novelist," is revealed. Worse, the Novelist has taken to writing taunting letters to the police, emphasizing that he will stop leaving any clues behind unless Verhoeven remains on the case. For reasons known only to the killer, the case has become personal. With more literature--inspired murders surfacing, Verhoeven enlists the help of an eccentric bookseller and a professor specializing in crime fiction to try to anticipate his adversary's next move. Then Irene is kidnapped.With time running out, Verhoeven realizes that all along he's been the unwitting dupe in The Novelist's plans to create an original work of his own. Now, the only person in the world the commandant truly cares for is in danger, and a happy ending seems less and less likely as it becomes clear that the winner of this deadly game may be the man with the least to lose.rime fiction to try to anticipate his adversary's next move.

Irene's Last Waltz (Irene Adler Adventure)
by Carole Nelson Douglas“Some women are born to have grand adventures,” wrote the New York Times of Irene Adler, the only woman ever to outwit Sherlock Holmes. Carole Nelson Douglas’s previous novels about this fascinating beauty (GOOD NIGHT, MR. HOLMES; GOOD MORNING, IRENE; and IRENE AT LARGE) have charmed delighted readers, winning critical acclaim, and IRENE’S LAST WALTZ is undoubtably Irene’s most daring-and dangerous- adventure. The ever irresistible Irene Adler, her dashing barrister husband Godfrey Norton and the indomitable Miss Nell Huxleigh have arrived at last at their French cottage-having survived (but just barely) the dastardly plots, Russian spies, pistol-wielding criminals... and the occasional cobra. Our happy trio seek nothing but rest and peace. But Irene has always chafed under idle conditions, and Paris, she says, “is pretty and urbane, but hardly a center of excitement.” So when Charles Frederick Worth, the Parisian King of Couture invites Irene to become his “mannequin de ville,” to wear the fabulous Worth creations to stimulate his trade, Irene leaps at the chance. But what was a joyous lark soon turns into a journey that can lead to disgrace, dishonor...and death. For Irene, Nell and Godfrey are drawn into a series of events that will compel Irene to the one place that she daren’t go-and to the one man she must not confront. To Prague and the King of Bohemia. Carole Nelson Douglas is a four time Romance Writers of America award winner. The first book in the Irene Adler series, GOOD NIGHT, MR. HOLMES, won the American Mystery Award for Best Romantic Suspense Novel.

Irish Alibi: A Mystery Set at the University of Notre Dame (Roger and Philip Knight Mysteries)

The faithful swear that on game day the entire campus comes alive to cheer on the football team, and they don't have to look any further than Touchdown Jesus or Fair Catch Corby, a statue of a Civil War chaplain who seems to be signaling another pass completion, for proof, misguided as it may be.But this year, this friendly and sometimes heated North-South rivalry turns downright hostile when Notre Dame's ties to the Union during the Civil War are dug up, and two students, brothers and Southern gentlemen, are spurred to defend their honor with a prank nearly 150 years after the fact. While they both admit to being the culprit, only one of them could've actually committed the vandalism. But which one? By stretching one alibi over two people, they may dodge expulsion. But then they become suspects in a seemingly unrelated murder case that the Knights must solve, or else getting thrown out will be the least of the boys' problems.

Unfortunately, the object of Fred's intense love remains unnamed in his verse. Suddenly, both women are suspects in a vicious crime. But it's up to Roger to plug into the campus gossip grid and, with a little help from Phil, not to mention his vast knowledge of just about everything that happens on campus, determine the exact chain of events that led to murder.
