"Philomena McCarthy has defied the odds to become a young officer with the Metropolitan Police despite her father and her uncles being notorious London gangsters. On patrol one night, Philomena finds a barefoot child, covered in blood, who says she can't wake her mother. Meanwhile, three miles away, a London jeweler has a bomb strapped to his chest in his ransacked store and millions are missing. These two events collide and threaten Philomena's career, her new marriage, and her life. In too deep, and falling further, Phil must decide who she can trust-her family or her colleagues-and on what side of the thin blue line she wants to live. Told in real time from multiple points of view, The White Crow is filled with almost unbearable suspense-a page-turning tour de force that shows Robotham at the top of his game"--

Blacky the Crow is a clever rascal who lives in the Green Forest and Meadow. He loves to play tricks on the other little people who are his neighbours, and is curious about Farmer Brown's Boy. Blacky is always thinking about what is right and what is wrong, but he still gets into all kinds of mischief.

The definitive edition of the classic graphic novel—including never-before-seen material and a new introduction by the author. When James O’Barr poured the pain and anguish of a personal tragedy into the drawings that comprise The Crow, his intensely cathartic story of Eric—who returns from the dead to avenge his and his fiancée’s murder at the hands of a street gang—resonated with readers around the world. Now, the illustrated tale that became the “thrilling” ( Los Angeles Daily News) and “spectacular” ( Chicago Tribune) screen triumph is re-released in an expanded version the author originally intended, complete at last with: Thirty pages of never-before-seen artwork, including a new closing segment, “Sparklehorse;” and the touching new scene, “An August Noel” A new Introduction by James O’Barr Lost sequences restored using the artist’s original technique This is The Crow like you’ve never seen it before—the powerful journey of an avenging angel and a celebration of true love...as fierce, intelligent, and unforgettable as when it was first conceived. Suggested for mature readers.

1945 fühlt sich ein Teenager vom Post-WWII-Nationalismus erstickt. 1955 will ein unermüdlicher Arzt einer neuen Krankheit auf den Grund gehen. Sie scheinen unterschiedliche Leben in unterschiedlichen Jahrzehnten zu führen, doch bald schon wird ihr Schicksal durch eine seltene und schreckliche Krankheit untrennbar verbunden. Und von einer rätselhaften Gestalt, die ihnen folgt, wohin sie auch gehen – von allen nur „Der Mann“ genannt. In ihren Epochen gefangen, kämpfen beide gegen die Zeit, um Dem Mann zu entkommen und eine Heilung zu finden, ehe die Krankheit ihre Welt zerstört. Dieser verstörende Comic spannt sich über vier Jahrzehnte amerikanischer Geschichte und erinnert daran, dass der Schrecken von gestern auch der Schrecken von heute ist. Ein üppiges, ambitioniertes und sämtliche Genregrenzen sprengendes Werk über die soziopolitischen Konflikte, die die Nation geprägt haben; ein historisches Horrorepos, das die Popkultur der I-Love-Lucy-Ära mit bizarrem Bodyhorror vereint.

The Old Black Crow

As The Crow Dies

"I was special. I was a hero. I lost the best friend I ever had." Eleven-year-old Maggie lives in Fennis Wick, enclosed and protected from the outside world by a boundary, beyond which the Quiet War rages and the dirty, dangerous wanderers roam. Her brother Jed is an eldest, revered and special. A hero. Her younger brother is Trig - everyone loves Trig. But Maggie's just a middler; invisible and left behind. Then, one hot September day, she meets Una, a hungry wanderer girl in need of help, and everything Maggie has ever known gets turned on its head. Narrated expertly and often hilariously by Maggie, we experience the trials and frustrations of being the forgotten middle child, the child with no voice, even in her own family. This gripping story of forbidden friendship, loyalty and betrayal is perfect for fans of Malorie Blackman, Meg Rosoff, Frances Hardinge and Margaret Atwood. "I thought I'd almost reached my fill of dystopian novels, but Kirsty Applebaum has rebooted the genre. The plot pulls you along and I liked Maggie more and more as she grew in courage. There is a touch of Harper Lee's Scout about her." - Alex O'Connell, The Times Also by Kirsty Applebaum: TrooFriend
