Il 10 giugno 2007, il re e il primo ministro della Svezia scompaiono durante un ricevimento ufficiale al castello reale. Si diffonde la voce che entrambi non si sentissero bene, ma la verità è diversa, e la storia molto più complicata. Tutto ha inizio a Soweto, dove vive Nombeko, una ragazzina particolare che non sa né leggere né scrivere, ma che è molto curiosa e non sta mai ferma. E, soprattutto, ha una confidenza sorprendente e innata abilità con i numeri e le equazioni più complesse. Un piccolo genio che, grazie all'algebra, si trova catapultata dai sobborghi di Johannesburg, nel cuore di un intrigo mondiale, nel centro del mondo, a stretto e pericolosissimo contatto con il re di Svezia e il suo primo ministro. Eccentrici personaggi accompagnano questa piccola analfabeta che sa contare: un disertore americano leggermente matto, due fratelli gemelli che però all'anagrafe sono una sola persona, tre ragazzine cinesi negligenti, una baronessa coltivatrice di patate e, come detto, il re svedese e il primo ministro.

Investigative Analyst Fredrika Bergman is assigned the task of delving into Rebecca's private life. But little does she know that her enquiries are about to uncover evidence that will cause her to doubt the very people she trusts the most and put her every action under the scrutiny of Internal Affairs"--Back cover

In una piovosa giornata estiva, sul treno carico di passeggeri che va da Göteborg a Stoccolma, viaggiano una mamma e una bambina. Poco prima di giungere a destinazione, il treno si ferma per un problema tecnico e la mamma scende per fare una telefonata, lasciando nella carrozza la sua piccola, addormentata. Un’imprudenza, perché il treno riparte e, all’arrivo, della bambina non c’è più traccia. A quanto pare, nessuno ha visto nulla e, dopo molte ricerche, non c’è che una conclusione: la bambina è stata rapita. Ma da chi? E perché?Le indagini, affidate all’ispettore Alex Recht, coadiuvato da Fredrika Bergman, una giovane analista investigativa che affianca il lavoro della polizia nei casi più complessi, si orientano, all’inizio, sul padre della bambina, un uomo violento e geloso, da cui la moglie si era separata in modo traumatico. Ma quando il cadavere della piccola viene ritrovato nel parcheggio di un ospedale, il caso si trasforma in un incubo. La bambina ha la testa rasata e, sulla fronte, una scritta: Indesiderata. Alex e Fredrika capiscono di avere a che fare con un pericoloso psicopatico che potrebbe essere già a caccia della prossima vittima.

Zvláštní souborná edice dvou knižních hitů u příležitosti 100 000 prodaných knih Jonase Jonassona v Česku. Stoletý stařík, který vylezl z okna a zmizel: Allan Karlsson má narozeniny. Je mu sto let. Vlastně důvod k oslavě. Starosta i místní tisk se připravují na velkolepou oslavu, stoletý stařík má však docela jiné plány; jednoduše zmizí - a brzy je celé Švédsko kvůli jeho útěku vzhůru nohama. Jenže s podobnými věcmi už má Allan své zkušenosti - v mládí koneckonců uvedl do zmatku celý svět. Jonas Jonasson ve svém románu vypráví o jednom veselém útěku a také o šíleném životním příběhu svéhlavého muže, který se sice nikdy nezajímal o politiku, ale přesto byl vždy nějak zapleten do velkých historických událostí 20. století. Analfabetka, která uměla počítat: Nombeko začala pracovat v pěti letech jako vynašečka latrín na předměstí Johannesburgu, v deseti letech osiřela. Nic nenasvědčovalo tomu, že by neměla prožít svůj život v jedné z chatrčí největší chudinské čtvrti světa a pak tu předčasně umřít, nikým nepostrádaná. To by ale nebyla Nombeko - analfabetka, která uměla počítat. Osud i její talent ji zavedou až do mezinárodní politiky, na druhou stranu zeměkoule, ke dvěma identickým a zároveň velmi odlišným bratrům. Během jejího dobrodružného putování se jí podaří zamotat hlavu agentům nejobávanější tajné služby nebo být unesená ve špinavém náklaďáku na převoz brambor. A tím to zdaleka nekončí...

"HOSTAGE: Shortly after a crowded New York-bound Boeing 747 takes off from Stockholm, a bomb threat is found in one of the aircraft's lavatories. The demands are directed at both the Swedish and US governments. Police Superintendent Alex Recht teams up with the energetic -- and often abrasive -- Eden Lundell from the security service's counter-terrorism unit to deal with the hijacking. Fredrika Bergman, who is currently working at the Justice Department, returns to the police force to act as a liaison between the government and the police. The investigation team soon realizes that the plot behind the hijacking is far more complex than they initially thought. As the hours pass, Fredrika, Alex and Eden are running out of possibilities to save the plane and its passengers. The race against time also becomes a battle against the US government's fear of a new terrorist attack. And the plane is running out of fuel"--
