Edgar Wallace
There are crimes for which no punishment is adequate, offences that the written law cannot redress. The three friends, Pioccart, Manfred and Gonsalez, may be enjoying the exotic, Spanish city of Cordova with its heat and Moorish influences, but they are still committed to employing their intellect and cunning to dispense justice. In The Just Men of Cordova, written in 1917, the just men move into the treacherous, aristocratic world of gambling, horse-racing and high finance. It seems that police services, even governments, have no power to control this world, where blackmail, poison and murder are commonplace. The just men, working outside the law, take it upon themselves to clean things up in their own way.
Henry Bedford-Jones
Written in the cycle of tales by H. Bedford-Jones, The Justice of Amru tells how fanatic followers of Mohammed stormed out of Arabia in the seventh century to slaughter the Greek troops of the Great Eastern Empire and conquer Egypt... and again the strange Sphinx Emerald came to the scene to play its part in the unrolling historic drama.
Aidan de Brune
The Kahm Syndicate is another breathtaking novel by the master of mystery Aidan de Brune, a colorful and prolific Australian writer whose opus is well worth saving from oblivion. Who will control the mean streets of Darlinghurst? This and another answers you can find here. The story is fast-paced with some surprising twists, well written and great to read. This genuine mystery story takes the reader from one exciting episode to another with all the adroitness and ingenuity of de Brunes previous successful books. An entertaining tale of mystery and intrigue, this book constitutes a must-read for lovers of crime mystery.
J.S. Fletcher
The main character is Ben, a trainee lawyer who survived a difficult childhood and was cured of his illness. However, from childhood into his life, a malevolent uncle climbs. He asks the main character to plant him. At night, they hear a scream, on arrival they see a dead stranger. Can uncle be guilty of this?
Ethel M. Dell
Sequel to The Way of an Eagle. Max Wyndham is a successful doctor who comes to practice at the English Country. Olga Ratcliffe is Dr. Ratcliffes daughter and Maxs employer. Max realizes his attraction to Olga and predicts his marriage to her within a year. Olga finds him repulsive and is constantly in fear of him. Maxs reputation is endangered with his constant clashes with Olga. A page turning psychological thriller with doctors, beautiful women, and murders. The plot takes an adventurous dive from rural England to the wild jungles and shahs of India. With tiger hunting and national unrest, this book surpasses expectations. The Keeper of the Door is the compelling tale of womans struggles with social dictates and the ever-confusing demands of the heart by the author of The Obstacle Race and The Bars of Iron.
The Keepers of the Kings Peace
Edgar Wallace
The Keepers of the Kings Peace is another entry in Edgar Wallaces eminently popular Sanders of the River series based on British attempts to bring their administration to darkest Africa. An elite crew of officers is charged with getting to the bottom of a female shamans seemingly miraculous powers, but bumbling new addition Bones keeps getting in the way. Will they be able to stave off a mass rebellion before its too late? Always with tongue in cheek, Edgar Wallace nevertheless provides insights into the period of history at the same time. Wonderful characters, enthralling stories, never a dull moment. These stories are as good as any of the Sanders of the River stories.
S.S. Van Dine
Vance, an independently wealthy college educator, amateur detective, uses his deductive skills and psychological knowledge to help his friend New York County Attorney solve the murder of Archer Coe. At first he thought of suicide when Coes body was found in a room locked from the inside with all the windows closed. As usual, the action takes place in New York. Vances methods are unconventional and run counter to the more stringent police investigation methods and legal requirements of a lawyer.
S.S. Van Dine
Casper Kenting disappeared from the family home and a ransom note was found. Tips indicate Kentings involvement in his own abduction, but Vance sees this false trail. The abduction case is full of ordinary cliches: a ransom note consisting of words cut out from a newspaper and a demand to leave the ransom on an empty tree at midnight.
Sinclair Lewis

In 1930, he became the first writer from the United States to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. “The Kidnaped Memorial” is a short story by Sinclair Lewis. “Wakamin is a town with a soul. It used to have a sentimental soul which got thrills out of neighborliness and “The Star–Spangled Banner,” but now it wavers between two generations, with none of the strong, silly ambition of either. The pioneering generation has died out, and of the young men, a hundred have gone to that new pioneering in France.

Guy Boothby
Many changes, hesitations, lives at stake... It is not easy to put this story aside. It is unpredictable and full of action. When the presidents are fighting for a share of power, our hero can do everything to keep his honor and not get caught in the crossfire.
The Kidnapping of Madame Storey
Hulbert Footner
Love humor writing? Cant get enough of classic adventure tales? First published in 1902, The Adventures of Gerard are the autobiographical reminiscences of an old fictional brigadier soldier who served under Napoleon. He never hesitates to embellish his own bravado, importance, and attractiveness to the ladies, to such an extent that it cant help but be humorous. Etienne Gerard, a hussar of the French Army, is dashing, flamboyant, and unbelievably full of himself. The book is divided into chapters containing different segments of his life as a soldier under the leadership of Napoleon together with his personal exploits and the romance that swept his way in between. These short stories are historically interesting, the action is cleverly done and exciting, and the hero and his comic comportment are very entertaining.

Kultowa powieść na podstawie kultowego serialu! Sarah Lund kończy właśnie pracę w kopenhaskiej policji. Wraz z nastoletnim synem ma przeprowadzić się do Szwecji, by zamieszkać ze swoim narzeczonym. Gdy przekazuje gabinet następcy, dowiaduje się o niepokojącym znalezisku na niezamieszkałych terenach pod miastem. Niedługo potem policja trafia na zwłoki dziewiętnastoletniej Nanny Birk Larsen. Okazuje się, że przed śmiercią dziewczyna została wielokrotnie zgwałcona. Sarah odkłada wyjazd i wraz z Janem Meyerem rozpoczyna trudne dochodzenie, w którym nieustannie mnożą się wątki i podejrzani. W Kopenhadze trwa w tym czasie zacięta walka o fotel burmistrza, politycy najwyraźniej nie cofną się przed niczym, byle tę walkę wygrać. W zdemoralizowanym świecie Ratusza, w porażonym żałobą domu Birk Larsenów - wszędzie może się kryć klucz do rozwiązania zagadki. Sarah Lund wie, że musi znaleźć mordercę, poświęcając tym samym nawet swoje życie osobiste. Napisanie powieści na podstawie scenariusza serialu wymagało od Davida Hewsona nie lada kreatywności, ale też dało mu nowe możliwości rozbudowania postaci czy wprowadzenia zaskakujących zwrotów akcji. Jeśli widz serialu myśli, że zna tę historię, to bardzo się myli. "The Killing" to rewelacyjna powieść kryminalna, która już osiągnęła status kultowej, podobnie jak jej pierwowzór, duński serial "Forbrydelsen", na podstawie scenariusza Sorena Sveistrupa, oraz jego amerykański remake. Zapraszamy do wysłuchania pierwszego odcinka pierwszego tomu! Dwa kolejne odcinki już wkrótce!
