THE NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER BY AWARD WINNER KATE ATKINSON 'An unapologetic novel of ideas which is also wise, funny and paced like a thriller' Observer In 1940, eighteen-year old Juliet Armstrong is reluctantly recruited into the world of espionage. Sent to an obscure department of MI5 tasked with monitoring the comings and goings of British Fascist sympathizers, she discovers the work to be by turns both tedious and terrifying. But after the war has ended, she presumes the events of those years have been relegated to the past for ever. Ten years later, now a producer at the BBC, Juliet is unexpectedly confronted by figures from her past. A different war is being fought now, on a different battleground, but Juliet finds herself once more under threat. A bill of reckoning is due, and she finally begins to realize that there is no action without consequence. Transcription is a work of rare depth and texture, a bravura modern novel of extraordinary power, wit and empathy. It is a triumphant work of fiction from one of this country's most exceptional writers. 'How vehemently most novelists will wish to produce a masterpiece as good' Telegraph

Jackson Brodie viettää syrjäisessä merenrantakaupungissa hiljaiseloa ja elättää itsensä heittämällä keikkaa yksityisetsivänä uskottomuusepäilyjä tutkien ja kadonneita kissoja etsien. Ajoittain hänen seuranaan ovat teini-ikäinen poika tai ikääntynyt labradorinnoutaja, ex-puolison niin salliessa jopa molemmat. Paikka on kaunis mutta kaikki ei ole sitä, miltä näyttää. Eräänä päivänä Brodie tapaa kalliojyrkänteellä miehen ja pelastaa tämän mahdolliselta itsemurhalta. Käy ilmi, että miestä epäillään murhasta. Vähitellen tapahtumat johtavat Brodien keskelle valheiden ja vanhojen salaisuuksien verkkoa, ja pakottavat hänet kohtaamaan myös oman menneisyytensä - hyvin konkreettisesti, kun paikkakunnalle ilmaantuu aikuiseksi kasvanut Reggie Chase, poliisi joka on työparinsa kanssa tutkimassa vanhaa pedofiilirinkitapausta. Kate Atkinson (s. 1951) on Ison-Britannian rakastetuimpia ja arvostetumpia kirjailijoita. Hän on voittanut Bailey’s Women’s Prize for Fiction -palkinnon ja saanut useita muita tunnustuksia. Jackson Brodie -sarjasta Atkinson on todennut, ettei missään tapauksessa aikonut kirjoittaa dekkarisarjaa mutta niin vain kävi, ja siitä fiksun kirjallisuuden ystävät ovat saaneet olla kiitollisia. Kovaksikeitetty mutta kiltti Jackson Brodie on esiintynyt jo neljässä romaanissa, ja BBC on tehnyt kirjoihin perustuvan tv-sarjan.

This stunning companion to Kate Atkinson's #1 bestseller Life After Life, one of the best novels I've read this century (Gillian Flynn), follows Ursula's brother Teddy as he navigates an unknown future after a perilous war. He had been reconciled to death during the war and then suddenly the war was over and there was a next day and a next day. Part of him never adjusted to having a future. Kate Atkinson's dazzling Life After Life explored the possibility of infinite chances and the power of choices, following Ursula Todd as she lived through the turbulent events of the last century over and over again. A God in Ruins tells the dramatic story of the 20th Century through Ursula's beloved younger brother Teddy -- would-be poet, heroic pilot, husband, father, and grandfather -- as he navigates the perils and progress of a rapidly changing world. After all that Teddy endures in battle, his greatest challenge is living in a future he never expected to have. An ingenious and moving exploration of one ordinary man's path through extraordinary times, A God in Ruins proves once again that Kate Atkinson is one of the finest novelists of our age.

What if you could live again and again, until you got it right? On a cold and snowy night in 1910, Ursula Todd is born to an English banker and his wife. She dies before she can draw her first breath. On that same cold and snowy night, Ursula Todd is born, lets out a lusty wail, and embarks upon a life that will be, to say the least, unusual. For as she grows, she also dies, repeatedly, in a variety of ways, while the young century marches on towards its second cataclysmic world war. Does Ursula's apparently infinite number of lives give her the power to save the world from its inevitable destiny? And if she can -- will she? Named a New York Times Best Book of the Century, Life After Life is darkly comic, startlingly poignant, and utterly original: this is Kate Atkinson at her absolute best.

Tracy Waterhouse leads a quiet, ordered life as a retired police detective -- a life that takes a surprising turn when she encounters Kelly Cross, a habitual offender, dragging a young child through town. Both appear miserable and better off without each other -- or so decides Tracy, in a snap decision that surprises herself as much as Kelly. Suddenly burdened with a small child, Tracy soon learns her parental inexperience is actually the least of her problems, as much larger ones loom for her and her young charge. Meanwhile, Jackson Brodie, the beloved detective of novels such as Case Histories, is embarking on a different sort of rescue: that of an abused dog. Dog in tow, Jackson is about to learn, along with Tracy, that no good deed goes unpunished.

"Atkinson's bright voice rings on every page, and her sly and wry observations move the plot as swiftly as suspense turns the pages of a thriller."-San Francisco ChronicleTwo years after the events of Case Histories left him a retired millionaire, Jackson Brodie has followed Julia, his occasional girlfriend and former client, to Edinburgh for its famous summer arts festival. But when he witnesses a man being brutally attacked in a traffic jam - the apparent victim of an extreme case of road rage - a chain of events is set in motion that will pull the wife of an unscrupulous real estate tycoon, a timid but successful crime novelist, and a hardheaded female police detective into Jackson's orbit. Suddenly out of retirement, Jackson is once again in the midst of several mysteries that intersect in one giant and sinister scheme."
