Hard-boiled Private Investigator Amos Walker races to save a beautiful widow in the latest mystery from Loren D. Estleman—master of the noir PI novel and recipient of the Private Eye Writers of America’s Lifetime Achievement Award. “Loren D. Estleman is my hero”—Harlan Coben “Hanging out with Walker offers limitless pleasures”—NYT Book Review “Reading a new Amos Walker novel is an act of pure joy”—Booklist Young widow Sage Holland doesn’t look like a murderer—and that’s because she isn’t one. The beautiful dame has driven non-stop from her home in frozen Alaska to seek out the services of private investigator Amos Walker, bringing not just the ice and snow with her. Sage has a stalker: her late-husband’s vengeful brother, who’s determined to make her pay for a crime she didn’t commit. Someone killed David, but it wasn’t her. Walker is no fool. He knows not to take the words of husky-voiced, sorrowful women at face value. But Sage is in sore need of protection, and Walker's hunt for clues on Detroit’s wintry streets soon leads to far more dead bodies than expected. He’ll have to use every trick he’s learned if he’s to keep not just his client’s blood, but also his own from staining the snow. Autorid: Loren D. Estleman

New and updated edition.In 1743, according to legend, the last wolf in Scotland was killed by a huntsman near Inverness. Long regarded in folk takes and history as a slayer of babies, a robber of graves, a devourer of battlefield dead, its extinction was widely celebrated. But since then, deer have multiplied, destroying the vegetation on which an array of wildlife depends, and it is clear that the entire Highland ecosystem has been thrown off balance by the elimination of a top predator.Jim Crumley believes the old stories are pure fiction – a distortion of reality which prevents people from thinking rationally about the huge benefits wolves could bring. With reference to wolves in other cultures and places, from the south-west of England to Scandinavia and North America, this is a passionate polemic which argues for the return of the wolf to heal the damaged land. In 1743, according to legend, the last wolf in Scotland was killed by a huntsman near Inverness. Since then it has gradually become clear that the entire eco-system has been thrown out of balance. In this passionate polemic, Jim Crumley calls for a limited reintroduction of wolves into Scotland as a way of healing the damaged land. Autorid: Jim Crumley

A dramatic inside account of how capitalism and politics drove the disastrous collapse of Haiti, from the 2010 earthquake to the nation’s chaos today.Haiti is a nation near-collapse: criminal gangs have overrun the country, nearly all government officials have fled after the 2021 assassination of President Moise, refugees desperately set out on boats to reach the United States and Latin America, and the economy reels from the cascading after-effects of natural disasters that destroyed much of Haiti’s infrastructure. How did this happen? How did a nation founded on liberation—a people that revolted against their colonizers and enslavers—come to such ruin?In Aid State, journalist and Haiti expert Jake Johnston reveals how longstanding United States and European capitalist goals ensnared and re-enslaved Haiti under the guise of helping it. To the global West, Haiti is and always has been “open for business”: a place where labor is cheap, politicians are compliant, and profits are to be made. Over the course of nearly 100 years, the United States has sought to control Haiti and its people with occupying police, military, and euphemistically peacekeeping forces, as well as hand-picked leaders, meant to quell uprisings and protect corporate interests. Earthquakes and hurricanes only further devastated a nation left helpless by the aid industrial complex.Based on years of on-the-ground reporting in Haiti and interviews with politicians in America and Haiti, independent aid contractors, United Nations officials, and Haitians who struggle for their lives, homes, and families, Jake Johnston’s Aid State is a compelling, conscience-searing book of witness.
