Miese kleine Morde
Crime Story
Eine rabenschwarze Geschäftsidee Was hatte die Frau gerade zu ihrem Friseur gesagt? Sie würde es sich auch richtig was kosten lassen, wenn man ihren Alten beiseiteschaffen könnte?! Was für eine Geschäftsidee … Ein origineller, schwarzhumoriger Kurzkrimi von Jussi Adler-Olsen Wie freimütig diese Frauen doch reden! Sitzen beim Friseur und beratschlagen mit ihm oder ihrer besten Freundin, wie sie sich am besten ihres Ehemanns entledigen könnten. Lars Hansen, gerade selbst von seiner Frau verlassen und in akuten Geldnöten, muss nicht lange überlegen. Was für eine Geschäftsidee! Ja, gegen eine anständige Bezahlung kann er die Damen nachhaltig von ihren Gatten erlösen. Nur Blut darf dabei nicht fließen, auf keinen Fall. Und so scheffelt Hansen ein kleines Vermögen, der Bedarf scheint groß, seine Methode unangreifbar. Doch dann geschieht etwas, das die Konstruktion seines neuen Doppellebens maximal ins Wanken bringt. Für Leserinnen und Leser von skandinavischen Krimis und Fans von Krimiparodien wie Rita Falk. Neben der Carl-Mørck-Reihe sind bei dtv außerdem folgende Titel von Jussi Adler-Olsen erschienen: ›Das Alphabethaus‹ ›Das Washington-Dekret‹ ›Takeover‹

THE NO. 1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR 27 MILLION BOOKS SOLD WINNER OF THE GLASS KEY AWARD "The president has gone way too far. . . . These are practically dictatorial methods we're talking about." When Democratic Senator Bruce Jansen is elected president of the United States, it is a personal victory for Dorothy "Dottie" Rogers. She has secured a job in the White House, has proved to her Republican father that she was right to support Jansen, and is proud to see the rise of an intelligent, inspiring leader who shares her ideals. But the triumph is short-lived: Jansen's pregnant wife is assassinated on election night, and the alleged mastermind behind the shooting is none other than Dottie's own father. When Jansen ascends to the White House, he is a changed man, determined to end gun violence by any means necessary. Rights are taken away as quickly as weapons. Checkpoints and roadblocks destroy infrastructure. The media is censored. Militias declare civil war on the government. The country is in chaos, and Dottie's finds herself fighting for the life of her father, who just may be innocent.

La voce distorta proviene da un altoparlante piazzato da qualche parte nel buio: "Buon compleanno, Merete. Oggi sono centoventisei giorni che sei qui, e questo è il nostro regalo per te. Lasceremo la luce accesa per un anno, a meno che tu non sia capace di rispondere a una domanda. Perché ti abbiamo rinchiusa?" Merete Lynggaard, giovane parlamentare danese di successo, è a bordo di un traghetto il giorno in cui scompare senza lasciare tracce. I media si lanciano avidamente sulla storia e le ipotesi si avvicendano nei titoli: dal suicidio all'omicidio, dal tragico incidente al rapimento, fino alla sparizione volontaria. La polizia mette in campo tutte le forze, ma senza risultato: la donna sembra inghiottita dalla terra. Merete però non è morta. Chi la tiene segregata in modo tanto disumano in una prigione di cemento? E perché? Cinque anni dopo, Carl Morck, poliziotto svogliato e burbero, una spina nel fianco per tutti i colleghi, decide di riaprire le indagini con la sua Sezione Q, il nuovo reparto speciale per i casi irrisolti. Procedendo a ritroso nel tempo fra trame politiche e drammi familiari, Morck e il suo misterioso assistente siriano Assad si lanciano in una battaglia contro il disegno delirante di un criminale folle.
