Zwanzig Jahre sind vergangen: Als sich Stefan und Theresa zufällig in Hamburg über den Weg laufen, endet ihr erstes Wiedersehen in einem Desaster. Zu Studienzeiten waren sie wie eine Familie füreinander, heute sind kaum noch Gemeinsamkeiten übrig. Stefan hat Karriere bei Deutschlands größter Wochenzeitung BOTE gemacht, Theresa den Bauernhof ihres Vaters in Brandenburg übernommen. Aus den unterschiedlichen Lebensentwürfen sind gegensätzliche Haltungen geworden. Stefan versucht bei seiner Zeitung, durch engagierte journalistische Projekte den Klimawandel zu bekämpfen.

Story4 out of 5 stars 25
Lanzarote am Neujahrsmorgen: Henning will mit dem Fahrrad den Steilaufstieg zum Pass von Fermés bezwingen. Während er gegen Wind und Steigung kämpft, denkt er über sein Leben nach. Eigentlich ist alles in bester Ordnung. Er liebt seine Frau, hat zwei gesunde Kinder und einen passablen Job. Aber Henning geht es schlecht. Familienernährer, Ehemann, Vater - in keiner Rolle findet er sich wieder. Er leidet unter Angstzuständen und Panikattacken, die ihn regelmäßig heimsuchen. Als Henning schließlich den Pass erreicht, trifft ihn die Erkenntnis wie ein Schlag: Er war als Kind schon einmal hier.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 5
Der Kleinkriminelle Sascha Nebel hat sich zur falschen Zeit am falschen Ort das falsche Auto für einen Diebstahl ausgesucht. Kaum, dass er hinter dem Steuer eines Geländewagens Platz genommen hat, zieht eine Horde demonstrierender Klimaaktivisten durch die Straße. Allen voran eine junge Frau, die den SUV mit einer Baseballkeule demoliert. Als die Polizei auf der Bildfläche erscheint, ergreifen Sascha und die Unbekannte die Flucht und platzen in den Elternabend einer 5. Klasse. Um die Nacht nicht in Polizeigewahrsam zu verbringen, bleibt ihnen keine andere Wahl.

Story5 out of 5 stars 4
Wien im Jahr 1966. Robert Simon verdient sein Brot als Gelegenheitsarbeiter auf dem Karmelitermarkt. Er ist zufrieden mit seinem Leben, doch zwanzig Jahre nach Ende des Krieges hat sich die Stadt aus ihren Trümmern erhoben. Überall wächst das Neue, und auch Simon lässt sich mitreißen. Er pachtet eine Gastwirtschaft und eröffnet sein eigenes Café. Das Angebot ist überschaubar, und genau genommen ist es gar kein richtiges Café, doch die Menschen aus dem Viertel kommen, und sie bringen ihre Geschichten mit – von der Sehnsucht, vom Verlust, vom unverhofften Glück.

Abschied und Aufbruch. Worauf noch warten? Ein zerrissenes Foto bringt die Wahrheit ans Licht. Es ist die Momentaufnahme eines Verrats, der vier Schicksale miteinander verbindet, sie zusammenführt und mit den unbequemen Fragen der Lebensmitte konfrontiert: Loslassen oder Festhalten? Wer bin ich, wenn ich niemandem mehr gefallen will, und wo will ich hin, wenn ich mir von niemandem mehr sagen lasse, wo es langgeht? Ruth flieht mit dem Foto und ihrem viel zu großen Hund in die alte Villa der Großeltern.

Sally und Liss: zwei Frauen, wie sie unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten. Sally, kurz vor dem Abitur, will einfach in Ruhe gelassen werden. Sie hasst so ziemlich alles: Angebote, Vorschriften, Regeln, Erwachsene. Fragen hasst sie am meisten, vor allem die nach ihrem Aussehen. Liss ist eine starke, verschlossene Frau, die die Arbeiten, die auf ihrem Hof anfallen, problemlos zu meistern scheint. Schon beim ersten Gespräch der beiden stellt Sally fest, dass Liss anders ist als andere Erwachsene. Kein heimliches Mustern, kein voreiliges Urteilen, keine misstrauischen Fragen.

Publisher's summary
In einer Villa am Zürichberg wohnt Alt-Nationalrat Dr. Stotz, umgeben von Porträts einer jungen Frau. Melody war einst seine Verlobte, doch kurz vor der Hochzeit – vor über 40 Jahren – ist sie verschwunden. Bis heute kommt Stotz nicht darüber hinweg. Davon erzählt er dem jungen Tom Elmer, der seinen Nachlass ordnen soll. Nach und nach stellt sich Tom die Frage, ob sein Chef wirklich ist, wer er vorgibt zu sein. Zusammen mit Stotz' Großnichte Laura beginnt er, Nachforschungen zu betreiben, die an ferne Orte führen – und in eine Vergangenheit, wo Wahrheit und Fiktion gefährlich nahe beieinanderliegen.
Critic reviews
Martin Suter gilt als Meister einer eleganten Feder, die so fein geschliffen ist, dass man die Stiche oft erst hinterher spürt.
-- Monika Willer / Westfalenpost)
Martin Suter hat die seltene Gabe, Schweres leicht erscheinen zu lassen. Er schreibt einen Bestseller nach dem anderen, die inhaltlich wie literarisch glänzen.
-- Michael Knoll / Bücher
Wenn es überhaupt einen Schriftsteller gibt, dessen Feder man gern entsprungen wäre, dann ihn.
-- Elmar Krekeler / Berliner Morgenpost

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 580
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Luxury villas on hot white sand, views for miles over turquoise water. Flawless hostess Penny gathers guests to an island for her husband’s birthday celebrations. But she soon regrets inviting self-obsessed Eloise. When a child vanishes on the night of the party, their perfect island weekend is ripped apart. Even paradise harbours murky secrets… Has he been taken? Has he drowned? In the panic to find any trace, Penny casts about for someone to blame—even if that person is her own daughter, Rosie. Even clear waters descend to pitch black.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

When she arrives at the idyllic getaway, she’s pleased to find that the owner is a handsome man by the name of Calvin Wells—and he’s eager to introduce her to his easygoing way of life. But there are things Grace discovers that she’s not too pleased about: a lack of cell phone service. A missing woman. And a feeling that something isn’t right with the ranch.

When the call came it seemed like the answer to my prayers. My career as a voice actor had been over for months and me and my little girl Scarlet were living back at my mum’s place. I felt like a failure professionally—and with Scarlet having problems at school, as a parent as well. So, when I was asked to narrate a new book by disappeared novelist Philippa Roberts I jumped at the chance, even if it meant leaving Scarlet with my ex, Hugo, for a few weeks. Hugo, with his perfect new home and his perfect new girlfriend Saskia. But this isn’t a dream come true. It’s a nightmare.

The Worst Suter ?
Martin Suter used to be a genius writer and relative to his other works, this is terrible.
Totally bizarre story of lies built upon lies with very questionable motives by all parties (why lie again at the end?).
Many interesting set ups which never get a pay-off (who was in the villa at night?).
Totally useless love-story (Tom +) inside a love story (Peter + Melody) outside other love-stories (Melody + ).
Unclear who the protagonist really is (Tom? Old Peter ?, Young Peter ? Melody ?).
Very flat or no character arcs: Peter keeps lying about everything, so does everyone else, except for Tom, who is just along for the ride.
No real stakes for anyone except for a predetermined and unavoidable death, getting to know the truth after a life of lying (Peter) and lying before dying even though you said you wanted to tell the truth (Joe).
Almost totally boring to read except for the hope that genius Suter will deliver something grand at the end, only to uncover another lie without any consequence.
Compare this to "Small World" with a very real protagonist, very real stakes, and a very real character redemption.
Sorry Martin, I understand you probably make at least $1 Million + when you whip out something sloppy like this, but it doesn't do you justice. Do another Almen if you need some extra money.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
