DANIEL COLE: HÓHÉR (RONGYBABA 2.)
Egy nyomozó, aki senkiben sem bízhat.
Egy gyilkos, akinek nincs vesztenivalója.
Másfél év telt el a „Rongybaba-gyilkosságok” és William „Wolf” Fawkes nyomozó eltűnése óta, amikor Emily Baxtert váratlanul két FBI ügynök keresi fel az irodájában egy New York-i gyilkosság miatt.
Az áldozatot a Rongybaba alakját idéző testtartásban találták meg a Brooklyn hídra felakasztva, ezért arra gyanakodnak, hogy az elkövető a híres esetet másolva akar ismertségre szert tenni. Ám amikor kiderül, hogy a holttest mellkasába egy üzenetet karcoltak, nyilvánvalóvá válik, hogy többről van szó…
Baxternek semmi kedve ismét egy őrült után nyomozni, ám nincs más választása, ugyanis a következő holttesten újabb üzenet várja. Az amerikai és brit nyomozókból álló csapat kétségbeesetten lohol az információk után. Baxter nem engedheti meg magának, hogy gúzsba kösse a gyász és a félelem, ha meg akarja állítani a gyilkost, mielőtt túl késő lenne…

Tell Me You're Mine is a story of guilt, grief, and the delicate balance between love and obsession.

REESE WITHERSPOON: WHISKEY IN A TEACUP
A Touchstone book. Touchstone has a great book for every reader.
Academy award-winning actress, producer, and entrepreneur Reese Witherspoon invites you into her world, where she infuses the southern style, parties, and traditions she loves with contemporary flair and charm.
Reese Witherspoon’s grandmother Dorothea always said that a combination of beauty and strength made southern women “whiskey in a teacup.” We may be delicate and ornamental on the outside, she said, but inside we’re strong and fiery.
Reese’s southern heritage informs her whole life, and she loves sharing the joys of southern living with practically everyone she meets. She takes the South wherever she goes with bluegrass, big holiday parties, and plenty of Dorothea’s fried chicken. It’s reflected in how she entertains, decorates her home, and makes holidays special for her kids—not to mention how she talks, dances, and does her hair (in these pages, you will learn Reese’s fail-proof, only slightly insane hot-roller technique). Reese loves sharing Dorothea’s most delicious recipes as well as her favourite southern traditions, from midnight barn parties to backyard bridal showers, magical Christmas mornings to rollicking honky-tonks.
It’s easy to bring a little bit of Reese’s world into your home, no matter where you live. After all, there’s a southern side to every place in the world, right?

HANK GREEN: AN ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE THING
In his much-anticipated debut novel, Hank Green – co-creator of Crash Course, Vlogbrothers and SciShow – spins a sweeping, cinematic tale about a young woman who becomes an overnight celebrity before realizing she's part of something bigger, and stranger, than anyone could have possibly imagined.
The Carls just appeared. Coming home from work at three a.m., twenty-three-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship – like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armour – April and her friend Andy make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. The next day April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world – everywhere from Beijing to Buenos Aires – and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the centre of an intense international media spotlight.
Now April has to deal with the pressure on her relationships, her identity and her safety that this new position brings, all while being on the front lines of the quest to find out not just what the Carls are, but what they want from us.
Compulsively entertaining and powerfully relevant, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing grapples with big themes, including how the social internet is changing fame, rhetoric and radicalisation; how our culture deals with fear and uncertainty; and how vilification and adoration spring from the same dehumanization that follows a life in the public eye.
