June 1941. Dutch diplomat Oscar Verschuur has been posted to neutral Switzerl&. His family is spread across Europe. His wife Kate works as a nurse in London & their daughter Emma is living in Berlin with her husband Carl, a `good` German who works at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Briefly reunited with her father in a restaurant in Geneva, Emma drops a bombshell. A date & a codename, & the fate of nations is placed in Verschuur`s hands: June 22, Barbarossa. What should he do? Warn the world, or put his daughter`s safety first? The Gestapo are watching them both. & with Stalin lulled by his alliance with Hitler, will anyone even listen? Otto de Kat is fast gaining a reputation as one of Europe`s sharpest & most lucid writers. News from Berlin, a book for all readers, a true page-turner driven by the pulse of a ticking clock, confirms him as a storyteller of subtly extravagant gifts. ...

In News from No Man’s L&, John Simpson focuses on how journalists set about finding the stories that make the headlines. On 13 November 2001 John Simpson & a BBC news crew walked into Kabul & the liberation of the Afghan capital was broadcast to a waiting world. It was the end of a sustained campaign against the Taliban, a campaign that Simpson had covered from the beginning, despite appalling difficulties &, often, great danger. Like his previous books “… No Man’s Land” is rich in anecdote & filled with extraordinary encounters with remarkable individuals. This is quintessential Simpson: vivid, utterly absorbing & written with all the care & lucidity of his reporting style. ...

It had been eight years since anyone had crossed Xinjiang; in between those who had entered this inhospitable & politically volatile area--under the control of a warlord supported by Stalin`s Red Army--seldom left alive. Entering the province by a little known route & following the path of the Silk Road, they ended up in Kashgar before crossing the Pamirs to India. Beautifully written & superbly observed, this is not simply an account of a part of the world few of us will ever see, but also a marvellous insight into the last days of the Great Game, when Britain & Russia still faced each other across a Central Asia in a state of anarchy. ...

Pablo Escobar: billionaire drugs baron; ruthless manipulator, brutal killer & jefe of the infamous Medellin cartel. A man whose importance in the international drug trade & renown for his charitable work among the poor brought him influence & power in his home country of Colombia, & the unwanted attention of the American courts. Terrified of the new Colombian President's determination to extradite him to America, Escobar found the best bargaining tools he could find: hostages. In the winter of 1990, ten relatives of Colombian politicians, mostly women, were abducted & held hostage as Escobar attempted to strong-arm the government into blocking his extradition. Two died, the rest survived, & from their harrowing stories Marquez retells, with vivid clarity, the terror & uncertainty of those dark & volatile months. ...
