Annelise Sorensen Ordine dei libri (cronologico)

Seit fünf Jahrhunderten zieht das „Land der unbegrenzten Möglichkeiten“ Reisende mit großen Träumen und Hoffnungen im Gepäck an. Wer immer die Vereinigten Staaten heute besucht, bringt nach wie vor ganz bestimmte Vorstellungen mit. Der amerikanische Einfluss ist weltweit so prägend, dass man beim ersten Besuch weniger das Gefühl hat, fremden Boden zu betreten, als vielmehr auf Schritt und Tritt Bekanntem zu begegnen. Längst vertraut aus Film und Fernsehen sind uns die Großstadt-Skylines, die gelben Taxis, das Geräusch der amerikanischen Polizeisirenen, die endlosen von Diners gesäumten Highways und die Briefkästen, die einem Peanuts-Comic entsprungen scheinen. Mit den vorliegenden Reiseführern USA Der Osten und USA Der Westen liegen zwei wertvolle Reisebegleiter aus der Reihe Stefan Loose vor. Beider Büche wurden in Zusammenarbeit mit dem englischsprachigen Reisehandbuch Rough Guide erarbeitet. Die Autoren stellen umfassend und detailiert, kenntnisreich und begeistert das Reiseland USA vor. Zahlreiche Farbfotos geben einen ersten Eindruck, zahlreiche Tipps zu Reisemöglichkeiten, Unterkünften und Restaurants runden die Vielfalt an Informationen ab. Neu ist der 16-seitige Farbatlas. Wie in allen Loose Travelhandbüchern kommen natürlich auch die Tipps für Einreise, die Hintergrundinformationen zu Land und Leuten, Politik und Umwelt nicht zu kurz.

A potential Bigfoot sighting is linked to a vicious murder, but skeptical cryptozoologist Morgan Carter is on the case in this new Monster Hunter Mystery by USA Today bestselling author Annelise Ryan. Business has been booming since Morgan Carter solved the case of the monster living in Lake Michigan. The Odds and Ends bookstore is thriving, of course, but Morgan is most excited by the doors that were opened for her as a cryptid hunter. Recently, there have been numerous sightings of a Bigfoot-type creature in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest area of Bayfield County, Wisconsin. After a man is found dead from a vicious throat injury in the forest, the conservation warden asks Morgan to investigate. When Morgan and her dog, Newt, go there to investigate, they uncover a trail of lies, deception, and murder. It seems a mysterious creature is indeed living in the forest, and Morgan might be its next target.

When social worker Hildy Schneider commits to an after-hours side job, she finds herself drawn into the darker side of small-town Sorenson, Wisconsin—and the twisted mind of an unnamed killer . . . Strange things have been happening since Hildy started moonlighting with local police, but a desperate late-night call involving a former patient from Sorenson General Hospital tops the list. Although Danny Hildebrand has been tormented by hallucinations for years, he swears he’s being haunted for real by the victim of a grisly murder . . . The rambling ghost story seems like another delusion. But after a body turns up in a neglected farmhouse crawling with secrets, Hildy and the magnetic Detective Bob Richmond rush to explain Danny’s knowledge of the incident. As the crime-solving partners unwittingly grow closer while examining a series of eerie leads, they realize that surviving past sunrise means shedding light on a criminal willing to do whatever it takes to stay in the shadows . . .

Includes an excerpt from the author's Mattie Winson mysteries, Dead of winter.
