From the author of the acclaimed The Girl with a Clock for a Heart - hailed by the Washington Post as crime fiction’s best first novel of 2014 - comes a devious tale of psychological suspense involving sex, deception, and an accidental encounter that leads to murder that is a modern reimagining of Patricia Highsmith’s classic Strangers on a Train.
On a night flight from London to Boston, Ted Severson meets the stunning and mysterious Lily Kintner. Sharing one too many martinis, the strangers begin to play a game of truth, revealing very intimate details about themselves. Ted talks about his marriage that’s going stale and his wife, Miranda, who he’s sure is cheating on him. Ted and his wife were a mismatch from the start - he the rich businessman, she the artistic free spirit - a contrast that once inflamed their passion but has now become a cliché.
But their game turns a little darker when Ted jokes that he could kill Miranda for what she’s done. Lily, without missing a beat, says calmly, “I’d like to help.” After all, some people are the kind worth killing, like a lying, stinking, cheating spouse.
Back in Boston Ted and Lily’s twisted bond grows stronger as they begin to plot Miranda’s demise. But there are a few things about Lily’s past that she hasn’t shared with Ted, namely her experience in the art and craft of murder, a journey that began in her very precocious youth.
Suddenly these coconspirators are embroiled in a chilling game of cat and mouse, one they both cannot survive…with a shrewd and very determined detective on their tail.

Vision of the Future is the second book in the epic two-volume series The Hand of Thrawn from Timothy Zahn, the bestselling, Hugo Award-winning author of the original landmark trilogy based on George Lucas's legendary Star Wars(r) films. Now the story begun in Specter of the Past comes to an explosive conclusion as Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Han Solo are thrust into the middle of an impending civil war--and discover the shocking truth behind the rumored resurrection of the dead Admiral Thrawn.
For a beleaguered Empire, desperate times call for desperate measures. Sowing discord among the fragile coalition of the New Republic, remnants of the once powerful Empire make one last play for victory. Having implicated the Bothans in an act of genocide, they now plan an attack on Han and Leia that is also to be blamed on the Bothans. If they are successful, the New Republic will be torn asunder. To prevent inevitable disaster, Luke, Leia, Han, and their friends must prove the Bothans innocent and reveal the Empire's treachery. But time is running out.
The cunning Major Tierce has joined with the ambitious Moff Disra in the Empire's master plan. At its heart lies the most elaborate con of all: the rumor that the legendary Grand Admiral Thrawn, long believed dead, has returned to lead the Empire to a prophesied triumph. The news of Thrawn's return is already rallying Empire forces against the New Republic.
As Leia travels to a secret rendezvous with an Imperial commander who claims towant peace, Han and Lando Calrissian journey into enemy territory to learn the truth of Emberlene's destruction. Meanwhile, Luke and Mara Jade infiltrate a hidden fortress where Thrawn's most fanatical followers await his call to arms. And Talon Karrde returns to his underworld past and a brutal crime lord whose knowledge may save the Republic. But it is the truth about Thrawn that is most important. In his hands--alive or dead--rests the fate of the New Republic.
Vision of the Future is the magnificent finale to one of the most suspenseful, action-packed, and thought-provoking Star Wars(r) stories yet. It is a masterful re-creation that captures the magic and adventure of the greatest science fiction saga of all time.

作者:

1997

From Hugo Award-winning author Timothy Zahn, whose unprecedented bestselling trilogy continued the saga of George Lucas's blockbuster films and became a landmark in the history of science fiction publishing, comes a dramatic new chapter in the greatest science fiction epic ever told. Now Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Han Solo must battle to safeguard the fledgling New Republic from a dead Imperial warlord--and from itself.
Once the unquestioned master of countless solar systems, the Empire is tottering on the brink of total collapse. Once commanding an invincible armada of Star Destroyers, its fleet has been reduced to a skeleton force. Day by day, neutral systems are rushing to join the New Republic coalition. But with the end of the war in sight, the New Republic has fallen victim to its own success. An unwieldy alliance of races and traditions, the confederation now finds itself riven by age-old animosities.
Princess Leia struggles against all odds to hold the New Republic together. But she has powerful enemies. An ambitious Moff Disra leads a conspiracy to divide the uneasy coalition with an ingenious plot to blame the Bothans for a heinous crime that could lead to genocide and civil war. At the same time, Luke Skywalker, along with Lando Calrissian and Talon Karrde, pursues a mysterious group of pirate ships whose crews consist of clones. And then comes the most startling news of all: Grand Admiral Thrawn--believed to be dead for ten years--is reported alive. The most cunning and ruthless warlord in Imperial history has seemingly returned to lead the Empire to triumph.
As Han and Leia try to prevent the unraveling of the New Republic in the face of this fearful and inexplicable threat from the past, Luke sets out to track down the rogue pirate ships. To do so, he will team up with Mara Jade, with whom he will share his growing mastery of the Force and the ever-present threat of the dark side. All the while, lurking in the shadows is the enigmatic Major Tierce, a disciple of Emperor Palpatine, sharing his long-dead master's lust for power, schooled in the devious stratagems of Thrawn himself, and armed with his own dark plans for the New Republic and the Empire.
Specter of the Past marks the triumphant return of Timothy Zahn to the celebrated Star Wars(r) universe in a novel that brings together all the trademark action, suspense, startling revelations, and brilliant spectacle worthy of the name Star Wars.
Timothy Zahn is one of science fiction's most popular voices, known for his ability to tell very human stories against a well-researched background of future science and technology. He won the Hugo Award for his novella Cascade Point and is the author of sixteen science fiction novels, including the bestselling Star Wars trilogy Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising, and The Last Command, the novels Conquerors' Pride, Conquerors' Heritage, and Conquerors' Legacy, and three collections of short fiction. Timothy Zahn lives in Oregon.

"My son has been erased." Those are the last words the woman tells Barry Sutton, before she leaps from the Manhattan rooftop.
Deeply unnerved, Barry begins to investigate her death, only to learn that this wasn't an isolated case. All across the country, people are waking up to lives different from the ones they fell asleep to. Are they suffering from False Memory Syndrome, a mysterious new disease that afflicts people with vivid memories of a life they never lived? Or is something far more sinister behind the fracturing of reality all around him?
Miles away, neuroscientist Helena Smith is developing a technology that allows us to preserve our most intense memories and relive them. If she succeeds, anyone will be able to reexperience a first kiss, the birth of a child, the final moment with a dying parent.
Barry's search for the truth leads him on an impossible, astonishing journey as he discovers that Helena's work has yielded a terrifying gift--the ability not just to preserve memories but to remake them . . . at the risk of destroying what it means to be human.

英国著名古典学家玛丽·比尔德对性别议题的探讨
从文化叙事的角度揭示将女性排除在权力之外的深层文化结构
探寻“厌女症”背后的文化根基
◎ 编辑推荐
“你无法将女性轻易置于一个已经被男性化编码的架构里,你必须改变架构本身。”
《女性与权力》收录了比尔德两篇关于女性与权力的演 讲稿。在这两篇演讲稿中,作者从历史上的文学作品和现实情境中挑选了一些案例,来解释女性与权力的关系是如何在文化中被构建的,并指明权力的定义本身就已经将女性排除在外。在这样的情况下,已经在政治、商业领域中成功的女性被视为女强人,她们在无意或有意地扮演一个男性化的角色,同时又排斥这种扮演。除了这少数精英女性,在日常生活中的大部分女性也面临同样的问题,即她们的声音总被忽略,社会对她们的容错率也更低。作者指出这一问题,并质问目前围绕权力的文化架构,以在更深的层面上引发人们的反思。
◎ 内容简介
英国著名古典学家玛丽·比尔德以其睿智的头脑和辛辣的笔调重探性别议题,揭示有权势的女性是如何为历史所对待的。她选取了自古典世界直至今日的众多案例,探寻“厌女症”背后的文化根基,并将讨论引向公共场域中的女性声音、社会文化对女性与权力之关系的预设,以及少数“成功”女性拒绝将自己嵌入男性模板中的努力。
比尔德本身也曾经历过针对女性的歧视和网络上的性别攻击,在对这些个人经验的反思中,她提出这样一个问题:如果在人们的认知中,女性在已经被男性化编码的权力架构里根本就没有一席之地,那么难道不是权力本身需要被重新定义吗?

“‘A Better Man,' with its mix of meteorological suspense, psychological insight and criminal pursuit, is arguably the best book yet in an outstanding, original oeuvre.” ―Tom Nolan, The Wall Street Journal
"Enchanting... one of his most ennobling missions." ―Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review
Catastrophic spring flooding, blistering attacks in the media, and a mysterious disappearance greet Chief Inspector Armand Gamache as he returns to the Sûreté du Québec in the latest novel by #1 New York Times bestselling author Louise Penny.
It’s Gamache’s first day back as head of the homicide department, a job he temporarily shares with his previous second-in-command, Jean-Guy Beauvoir. Flood waters are rising across the province. In the middle of the turmoil a father approaches Gamache, pleading for help in finding his daughter.
As crisis piles upon crisis, Gamache tries to hold off the encroaching chaos, and realizes the search for Vivienne Godin should be abandoned. But with a daughter of his own, he finds himself developing a profound, and perhaps unwise, empathy for her distraught father.
Increasingly hounded by the question, how would you feel…, he resumes the search.
As the rivers rise, and the social media onslaught against Gamache becomes crueler, a body is discovered. And in the tumult, mistakes are made.
In the next novel in this “constantly surprising series that deepens and darkens as it evolves” (New York Times Book Review), Gamache must face a horrific possibility, and a burning question.
What would you do if your child’s killer walked free?

A corpse whose palms and soles have been "scalped" is only the first in a series of disturbing clues: an airplane's mysterious crash in the nighttime desert, a bizarre attack on a windmill, a vanishing shipment of cocaine. Sgt. Jim Chee of the Navajo Tribal Police is trapped in the deadly web of a cunningly spun plot driven by Navajo sorcery and white man's greed.

本书收录时间旅行小说《醉步男》+日式恐怖小说《玩具修理者》。
——————————————
血沼,我以后大概都不会和你相遇了。
话没说完,小竹田在我眼前消失了。不仅仅是人消失不见,连他放在桌子上的威士忌也消失了。仿佛从头到尾都只有我一个人孤孤单单地坐在酒馆里。
一阵寒意袭上身来。
大概别人的一生中从 来都不会碰上遇到自己不认识的好友的事,但是我却碰上了。这可真是一件至死都忘不了的事情。不过,这件事情真的发生过吗?那个名叫小竹田的男子——今天第一次见的老朋友,真的存在过吗?
看起来,我到底是醉得不轻了。
——————————————
今后若是论及小林泰三的唯一性,《醉步男》与《玩具修理者》的这本合集会是一个象征性的事件。至今我还能回想起读完《醉步男》时那种真切的眩晕感,在所有的意义上,《醉步男》都是打破定型的作品。——井上雅彦(日本小说家)
《醉步男》在当时出版的时候是一部非常独特的作品,它让我们在一部可怕而令人心碎的科幻小说中阅读逻辑幻想。——大野万纪(日本科幻评论家、书评人、翻译家)
这是作者小林泰三充满“逻辑恐怖”的作品。登场人物越是讨论关于现代物理学所采取的时间论和意识的问题,越会朝着噩梦般的、绝望的结论而坠落。当被问到“让梦想坠落的恐怖”时,这是我最先推荐的作品。——ミニキャッパー周平(JUMP j BOOKS编辑)
作为恐怖杰作而闻名的《玩具修理者》是日本恐怖小说大奖获奖作品,但更可怕、令人兴奋的杰作是同时收录的《醉步男》。读完之后,你会想回到开头再读一遍。——纪伊国屋书店

The Night Fire 豆瓣
作者:
Michael Connelly
2019
Harry Bosch and LAPD Detective Renee Ballard come together again on the murder case that obsessed Bosch's mentor, the man who trained him---new from #1 New York Times bestselling author Michael ConnellyBack when Harry Bosch was just a rookie homicide detective, he had an inspiring mentor who taught him to take the work personally and light the fire of relentlessness for every case. Now that mentor, J.J. Thompson, is dead, but after his funeral his widow hands Bosch a murder book that Thompson took with him when he left the LAPD 20 years before -- the unsolved killing of a troubled young man in an alley used for drug deals. Bosch brings the murder book to Renée Ballard and asks her to help him find what about the case lit Thompson's fire all those years ago. That will be their starting point. The bond between Bosch and Ballard tightens as they become a formidable investigation team. And they soon arrive at a worrying question: Did Thompson steal the murder book to work the case in retirement, or to make sure it never got solved?
