A. D. Miller Knihy

Mladý právnik Nick Platt sa v túžbe po práci spojenej s dobrodružstvom dostáva do Moskvy – po moskovských uliciach sa valia kaskády peňazí, vládnu tu všemocní oligarchovia, vo veľkej väčšine bývalí členovia sovietskej tajnej služby KGB, nikto tu neberie ohľad na česť a morálku. Hoci Nick nemá nijaké ilúzie o prostredí, v ktorom sa pohybuje, a nekladie si priveľa otázok o pochybnosti obchodov, ktoré má v mene svojej firmy dohodnúť, tvárou v tvár osudovej žene, s ktorou sa náhodou zoznámi, zrazu zabúda na svoje morálne presvedčenie a stáva sa postupne – nevdojak – hlavným nástrojom spáchania starostlivo premysleného zločinu.

A complex, contemporary political thriller from the bestselling author of Booker-shortlisted Snowdrops Twelve years ago, Simon Davey prevented a tragedy, and ruined his own life. Once a senior British diplomat in Kiev, he lost everything after a lurid scandal. Back in London, still struggling with the aftermath of his disgrace, he is travelling on the Tube when he sees her … Olesya is the woman Simon holds responsible for his downfall. He first met her on an icy night during the protests on Independence Square. Full of hope and idealism, Olesya could not know what a crucial role she would play in the dangerous times ahead, and in Simon’s fate. Or what compromises she would have to make to protect her family. When Simon decides to follow Olesya, he finds himself plunged back into the dramatic days which changed his life forever. Independence Square is a story of ordinary people caught up in extraordinary times. It is a story about corruption and personal and political betrayals. It is a story about where, in the twenty-first century, power really lies. 'A tremendous novel - taut, compelling, reeking of authenticity. A.D. Miller writes with exemplary precision and sophistication. Independence Square is an unsparing examination of human beings caught up in historical forces they can barely comprehend.' William Boyd

Turn a betrayal inside out and you found its opposite, a secret and a bond. Perhaps that was what friendship came down to: a lifelong, affectionate mutual blackmail. Neil and Adam, two young men on the cusp of adulthood, meet one golden summer in California and, despite their different backgrounds, soon become best friends. Buton a camping trip in Yosemite they lead each other into wrongdoing that, years later, both will desperately regret. Their connection holds through love affairs, fatherhood, the wild successes and unforeseen failures of booming London, as power and guilt ebb between them. Then the truth of that long-ago night emerges. What happens when you discover that the friendship you can't live without was always built on a lie?
