ΑΘΩΟ ΑΙΜΑ
Εκδότης: ΚΑΣΤΑΝΙΩΤΗΣ
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2250-4878

Υπόθεση υιοθεσίας θα μπορούσε να είναι ο υπότιτλος σ' αυτό το αληθινά «αλλιώτικο» μυθιστόρημα της Π. Ντ. Τζέιμς. Πράγματι, όλα ξεκινούν «αθώα». Μια κοπέλα δεκαοχτώ χρονών, υιοθετημένη από ένα ζευγάρι της ανώτερης αστικής τάξης, αποφασίζει να βρει τους φυσικούς της γονείς. Η πραγματικότητα, σκληρή και απρόβλεπτη, τη φέρνει αντιμέτωπη με δυο γονείς εγκληματίες. Ο πατέρας της βίασε ένα κοριτσάκι και η μητέρα της το σκότωσε για να μη μαρτυρήσει. Η αρχή του δράματος συμπίπτει με την αποφυλάκιση της μητέρας και με την απόφαση του πατέρα του θύμα...

ΣΥΖΗΤΩΝΤΑΣ ΓΙΑ ΤΟ ΑΣΤΥΝΟΜΙΚΟ ΜΥΘΙΣΤΟΡΗΜΑ
Εκδότης: ΚΑΣΤΑΝΙΩΤΗΣ
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2250-5425

Τι καλύτερο να ζητήσει κάποιος λάτρης του είδους από μια προσέγγιση στο αστυνομικό μυθιστόρημα που την επιχειρεί κάποιος που το γνωρίζει από τα μέσα. Η Π. Ντ. Τζέιμς δεν διστάζει να εκφράσει τις απόψεις της: «Είναι πασιφανές ότι εκδότες και αναγνώστες εξακολουθούν να αναζητούν μυθιστορήματα μυστηρίου τα οποία να προσφέρουν την αναμενόμενη ικανοποίηση μιας πλοκής που πείθει, αλλά τα οποία να μπορούν δικαίως να τα απολαμβάνουν ως σοβαρά μυθιστορήματα». Και ακόμα: «Η ποικιλία και η ποιότητα των αστυνομικών μυθιστορημάτων που παράγονται σήμερα...

An Adam Dalgliesh Mystery. A piercing scream, shattering the evening calm, brings Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh hurrying from his literary party to the nearby Steen Psychiatric Clinic, where he discovers the body of a woman sprawled on the basement floor, a chisel thrust through her heart.

"Κανένας δεν μπαίνει πιο βαθιά στο μυαλό ενός δολοφόνου -ούτε βγάζει από κει μια πιο ανατριχιαστική ιστορία - από τη σπουδαία P.D. James" Το ζήτημα δεν είναι πάντα "ποιος το 'κάνε". Μερικές φορές περισσότερο μυστήριο κρύβεται στο γιατί και το πώς. Και μολονότι συνήθως γνωρίζουμε τα νοσηρά πεπρωμένα τόσο του θύματος όσο και του δράστη, τι γίνεται με τους λίγους εκείνους επιτήδειους που σχεδιάζουν και φέρνουν σε πέρας το τέλειο έγκλημα; Εκείνους που δεν την πατάνε παρόλο που ανακαλύπτονται; Και τι γίνεται μ' αυτούς που γίνονται μάρτυρες ενό...

The Peverell Press, a two-hundred-year-old publishing firm housed in a dramatic mock-Venetian palace on the Thames, is certainly ripe for change.

Set in the peaceful English countryside, Cover Her Face is a classic murder mystery. St Cedd's Church has been held in the grounds of Martingale manor house for generations.
