Espresso Tales - Alexander Mccall Smith - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

In Espresso Tales, Alexander McCall Smith returns home to Edinburgh and the glorious cast of his own tales of the city, the residents of 44 Scotland Street, with a new set of challenges for each one of them. Bruce, the intolerably vain and perpetually deluded ex-surveyor, is about to embark on a new career as a wine merchant, while his long-suffering flatmate Pat MacGregor, set up by matchmaking Domenica Macdonald, finds herself invited to a nudist picnic in Moray Place in the pursuit of true love. Prodigious six-year-old Bertie Pollock wants a boy''s life of fishing and rugby, not yoga and pink dungarees, and he plots rebellion against his bossy, crusading mother Irene and his psychotherapist Dr Fairbairn. But when Bertie''s longed-for trip to Glasgow with his ineffectual father Stuart ends with Bertie taking money off legendary Glasgow hard man Lard O''Connor at cards, it looks as though Bertie should have been more careful what he wished for. And all the time it appears that both Irene Pollock and Dr Fairbairn are engaged in a struggle with dark secrets and unconscious urges of their own.

Deep Shelter - Oliver Harris - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

''Makes the capital as eerie as Le Carré''s Berlin'' Evening Standard Monday 10 June, end of a hot day. The city had started drinking at lunchtime and by 3 or 4pm crime seemed the only appropriate response to the beauty of the afternoon...At quarter to five he felt his contribution to law and order had been made. He parked off the high street, sunk two shots of pure grain vodka into iced Nicaraguan espresso and put his seat back. In an hour he''d be off duty, and in a couple more he''d be on a date with an art student he''d recently arrested for drugs possession. London is steaming under a summer of filthy heat and sudden storms - and Detective Nick Belsey, of Hampstead CID, is trying to stay out of trouble. But then somebody sets him a riddle. How does a man walk into a dead-end alley and never come out? And then reappear - to snatch a girl, to dump a body beneath a London skyscraper, to send Belsey a package of human hair. The answer lies underground, where the secrets degenerating beneath the city''s sickly glitter are about to see the light of day. Praise for Deep Shelter ''Relentless...explosive'' Mail on Sunday ''The coolest cop you''ll have come across in ages. London through his eyes is as atmospheric as a drawing by Gustave Doré... This demands to be read before the television adaptation'' Kate Saunders

James Dean - Paul Alexander - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

No more than a promising actor with a handful of films to his name when he died in 1955, James Dean has since been elevated to an iconic status surpassed only by Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe. And his image - a blend of ''50s cool and tough-guy charm - has been vigorously marketed in the race to cash in on a legend that, forty years later, shows no sign of abating. But until now, no serious biography has looked beyond the studio-manufactured cliches to the volatile polarities of this complex star. Was he bisexual or gay? A neurotic con-man or a lost boy trying to find himself? And to what extent did his sexuality fire his performances? Drawing on many new and documented sources, and featuring previously unpublished photographs, Paul Alexander''s revisionist and passionate biography will explode many people''s myths about a rare acting genius.

Rodigan - David Rodigan - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

''THE BOOK THAT EVERY REGGAE FAN SHOULD READ'' John Masouri, Echoes ''Rodigan can still claim a currency few presenters of his vintage can match. Perhaps it''s because while his wider musical and professional milieu has been in constant change, his boundless enthusiasm has been constant. Reggae''s been lucky to have him'' Ian Harrison, MOJO ''Rodigan was a major part of my childhood, he played the hottest tunes and in a style that just resonated with me and millions like me. Being able to contribute anything to a man that filled my life with such joy is an honour, respect, David Rodigan'' Ian Wright ''David is a pioneer in Reggae music. As a selector and radio personality, his vast knowledge of Jamaican music and its culture has helped to educate and fascinate music lovers around the world; he''s an amazing son of the music, and an icon. We couldn''t have made it this far without him'' Shaggy This is the unlikely story of David Rodigan: an Army sergeant''s son from the English countryside who has become the man who has taught the world about Reggae. As the sound of Jamaica has morphed over five decades through a succession of different genres - from Ska and Rock Steady, to Dub, Roots and Dancehall - Rodigan has remained its constant champion, winning the respect of generation after generation of Reggae followers across the globe.Today, at the age of 63, he is a headline performer at almost all the UK''s big music festivals, as well as events across the world. Young people revere him and he is a leading presenter on the BBC''s youth network 1Xtra as well as a regular fixture at leading nightclubs such as London''s Fabric and at student unions throughout the land. And he continues to go into the heartlands of Reggae, to the downtown dancehalls of Kingston and Montego Bay in Jamaica to compete in tournaments against the greatest sound systems. And yet, for all of this, David Rodigan is the antithesis of the stereotype of an international dance music DJ. ''I look like an accountant or a dentist,'' he admitted to The Independent a decade ago. A man of impeccable manners, Rodigan prepares for a big sound clash by retiring to his hotel bed with a Thomas Hardy novel before taking a nap and then a cup of espresso before heading to the club. Rodigan is the inside story of this apparent paradox. It tells how a boy from Kidlington has become an admired international ambassador for a music form that remains as proud as ever of its African roots, a sound that emanates from and fiercely represents the ghetto poor. He now reaches across the age groups, from teens through to those of his own vintage. At the pinnacle of his career, Rodigan has become the DJ for all generations. ''David Rodigan is a force of nature. His spirit and passion are a rare and wonderful thing. He has dedicated his life to carrying the torch for Reggae music and is hugely respected all over the world for his knowledge and talent as a broadcaster and a DJ. Long may he reign on our stages and on our airwaves'' Annie Mac

Laine Tavish is an ordinary woman living an ordinary life in the small town of Angel''s Gap, Maryland, as the proprietor of Remember When, an antique treasures and gift shop. At least, that''s what everyone in Angel''s Gap thinks. They have no idea that she used to be Elaine O''Hara, daughter of the notorious con man Big Jack O''Hara. Or that she grew up moving from place to place, one step ahead of the law. Laine''s past has just caught up with her, though - in a very dramatic way. Her long-lost uncle suddenly turned up in her shop, leaving only a cryptic warning before dying in the street, run down by a car. Soon afterward, her home is ransacked. Now it''s up to Laine, and a sexy stranger named Max Gannon, to find out who''s chasing her, and why. The answer lies in a hidden fortune - a fortune that will change not only Laine''s life but also the lives of future generations. And danger and death will surround that fortune for years to come. Until New York City Detective Lieutenant Eve Dallas gets on the case. A thrill-ride of a novel that blends present-day romance and futuristic suspense.
