Gripping, complex and beautifully written, and featuring the beloved Chief Inspector Gamache, ALL THE DEVILS ARE HERE is the acclaimed novel from number one New York Times bestselling author Louise Penny.
En ny president har tagit över efter en kaosartad tid i amerikansk politik. För att tysta sina hårdaste kritiker och ena det splittrade landet utser presidenten sin politiska rival Ellen Adams till utrikesminister. När en rad terrorattacker på nytt hotar att sätta världen i brand måste den nytillträdda utrikesministern visa vad hon går för. Ellen Adams inser snart att landet är utsatt för en konspiration och att insatserna är högre och landets fiender närmre än hon kunnat föreställa sig. För att slå tillbaka sätter hon samman ett specialteam bestående av tre personer: en ung, driven kvinnlig utrikestjänsteman, sin närmaste vän och rådgivare, samt sin egen dotter. HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON är den första kvinnan i USA som blivit presidentkandidat för ett större politiskt parti. Hon var utrikesminister i Barack Obamas regering efter att i nästan fyra decennier arbetat i offentlig tjänst, främst som talesperson inom familjepolitik. Hon är hustru, mamma, mormor och författare till sju tidigare böcker. LOUISE PENNY är en internationellt prisbelönt författare vars böcker har legat överst på topplistorna i New York Times, USA Today och Torontobaserade Globe and Mail. Hennes böcker om kommissarie Amanda Gamache har översatts till över 30 språk. 2017 belönades hon med hedersutmärkelsen Order of Canada för sin insats för den kanadensiska kulturen. Louise Penny bor strax utanför Montréal. "Spännande och insiktsfullt där Hillary förstås har full koll på maktspelet på högsta nivå." - Kenneth Gysing, Femina "En gripande, trovärdig, nervkittlande thriller som får läsarna att ifrågasätta hur mycket som är fiktion och hur mycket som bygger på verkligheten." - Karin Slaughter, författare "Så äkta så att det känns som att tjuvlyssna i maktens korridorer." - Joseph Kanon, författare

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Named one of the most anticipated novels of the season by People, Associated Press, Time, Los Angeles Times, Parade, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, The Guardian, Publishers Weekly, and more. From the #1 bestselling authors Hillary Clinton and Louise Penny comes a novel of unsurpassed thrills and incomparable insider expertise--State of Terror. After a tumultuous period in American politics, a new administration has just been sworn in, and to everyone's surprise the president chooses a political enemy for the vital position of secretary of state. There is no love lost between the president of the United States and Ellen Adams, his new secretary of state. But it's a canny move on the part of the president. With this appointment, he silences one of his harshest critics, since taking the job means Adams must step down as head of her multinational media conglomerate. As the new president addresses Congress for the first time, with Secretary Adams in attendance, Anahita Dahir, a young foreign service officer (FSO) on the Pakistan desk at the State Department, receives a baffling text from an anonymous source. Too late, she realizes the message was a hastily coded warning. What begins as a series of apparent terrorist attacks is revealed to be the beginning of an international chess game involving the volatile and Byzantine politics of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran; the race to develop nuclear weapons in the region; the Russian mob; a burgeoning rogue terrorist organization; and an American government set back on its heels in the international arena. As the horrifying scale of the threat becomes clear, Secretary Adams and her team realize it has been carefully planned to take advantage of four years of an American government out of touch with international affairs, out of practice with diplomacy, and out of power in the places where it counts the most. To defeat such an intricate, carefully constructed conspiracy, it will take the skills of a unique team: a passionate young FSO; a dedicated journalist; and a smart, determined, but as yet untested new secretary of state. State of Terror is a unique and utterly compelling international thriller cowritten by Hillary Rodham Clinton, the 67th secretary of state, and Louise Penny, a multiple award-winning #1 New York Times bestselling novelist.
»Det är en njutning att läsa Louise Pennys böcker.« Lotta Olsson, DN »Louise Pennys röst är unik i deckarvärlden. Det är alltid en fröjd att komma tillbaka till karaktärerna i hennes böcker.« Snowglitter books »Det blir inte mycket bättre än så här.« Mest deckareKartan som upptäcks inne i en vägg på bistron i Three Pines tycks först inte vara mer än en kuriositet. Men när Armand Gamache får den som present första dagen på sitt nya jobb på polisskolan i Québec visar det sig snart att den bär på förkrossande hemligheter. När en av skolans lärare påträffas död hittar man en kopia av den egendomliga kartan i hans bostad. Och vart Gamache än vänder sig ser han en av de unga polisaspiranterna, Amelia Choquet. Hon är tatuerad och piercad, arg och på sin vakt. Hon framstår som allt annat än en blivande polis. Ändå går hon på polisskolan och var en av den mördade lärarens skyddslingar. Utredningens fokus riktas snart mot Gamache själv, hans koppling till Amelia och hans möjliga inblandning i brottet. Och för både Amelia Choquet och Armand Gamache närmar sig tiden för en uppgörelse med det förflutna. I svensk översättning av Carla Wiberg.
