The Golden Egg
En Anglais – In The Golden Egg, as the first leaves of autumn begin to fall, Vice Questore Patta asks Brunetti to look into a minor shop-keeping violation committed by the mayor's future daughter-in-law. Brunetti has no interest in helping his boss amass political favors, but he has little choice but to comply. Then Brunetti's wife, Paola, comes to him with a request of her own. The mentally handicapped man who worked at their dry cleaner has just died of a sleeping pill overdose, and Paola loathes the idea that he lived and died without anyone noticing him, or helping him.Brunetti begins to investigate the death and is surprised when he finds nothing on the man: no birth certificate, no passport, no driver's license, no credit cards. As far as the Italian government is concerned, he never existed. Stranger still, the dead man's mother refuses to speak to the police, and assures Brunetti that her son's identification papers were stolen in a burglary.
Begraven dromen
En néerlandais – Dr. Victoria McClellan schrijft een biografie over het turbulente leven van de dichteres Lydia Brooke, vijf jaar na haar tragische zelfmoord. Naarmate Vic meer in de ban raakt van Lydia’s poëzie en leven, groeien haar twijfels over de toedracht van Lydia’s dood. Was het werkelijk zelfmoord? Vic besluit haar ex-man Duncan Kincaid, hoofdinspecteur bij Scotland Yard, om hulp te vragen. Kincaids adjudant en geliefde Gemma James ziet het hernieuwde contact tussen de ex-echtgenoten met gemengde gevoelens aan. Maar als Vic in groot gevaar blijkt te zijn, kan Gemma niet langer aan de zijlijn blijven staan.
Rome Houses
Anglais, Allemand, Italien, Espagnol – The streets of Rome may be filled with monuments to its imperial past but among the Renaissance palaces and Baroque basilicas, tombs and medieval bell towers, are several impressive examples of contemporary architecture and design. Packed with over 400 color illustrations that reveal a range of interior design styles both contemporary and classic, this addition to teNeues' highly regarded « Design Pocket » series allows the reader a rare glimpse into modern living in this most historic of European cities.
Toujours Provence
En Anglais – Taking up where his beloved A Year in Provence leaves off, Peter Mayle offers us another funny, beautifully (and deliciously) evocative book about life in Provence. With tales only one who lives there could know—of finding gold coins while digging in the garden, of indulging in sumptuous feasts at truck stops—and with characters introduced with great affection and wit—the gendarme fallen from grace, the summer visitors ever trying the patience of even the most genial Provençaux, the straightforward dog « Boy »—Toujours Provence is a heart-warming portrait of a place where, if you can't quite « get away from it all, » you can surely have a very good time trying.
