A Ernie Cunningham, un insegnante appassionato di gialli, le riunioni di famiglia non sono mai piaciute. Di sicuro c’entra il fatto che, tre anni prima, Ern ha visto suo fratello Michael uccidere un uomo e lo ha denunciato, un tradimento che nessuno dei parenti gli ha ancora perdonato. Perché i Cunningham non sono una famiglia come le altre. C’è una sola cosa che li unisce: hanno tutti ucciso qualcuno. Ora la famiglia ha deciso di ritrovarsi per un’occasione speciale. Trascorreranno una vacanza in un resort di montagna per festeggiare l’uscita di prigione di Michael. Ma quando ci sono i Cunningham di mezzo, niente va mai come dovrebbe. La sera prima dell’arrivo di Michael, viene trovato il cadavere di un uomo. Ha le vie respiratorie ostruite dalla cenere, come se fosse morto in un incendio. Ma giace nella neve, intonsa. Mentre una bufera si abbatte sul resort isolandolo e la polizia brancola nel buio, spetterà a Ern, detective improvvisato, capire se il colpevole è un suo familiare, prima che vengano tutti uccisi uno per uno.
A NEW YORK REVIEW BOOKS ORIGINAL Novels in Three Lines collects more than a thousand items that appeared anonymously in the French newspaper Le Matin in 1906—true stories of murder, mayhem, and everyday life presented with a ruthless economy that provokes laughter even as it shocks. This extraordinary trove, undiscovered until the 1940s and here translated for the first time into English, is the work of the mysterious Félix Fénéon. Dandy, anarchist, and critic of genius, the discoverer of Georges Seurat and the first French publisher of James Joyce, Fénéon carefully maintained his own anonymity, toiling for years as an obscure clerk in the French War Department. Novels in Three Lines is his secret chef-d’oeuvre, a work of strange and singular art that brings back the long-ago year of 1906 with the haunting immediacy of a photograph while looking forward to such disparate works as Walter Benjamin’s Arcades Project and the Death and Disaster series of Andy Warhol.

The mind-blowing true story of Pablo Escobar and the Medellin Cartel beyond their portrayal on Netflix. Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar was a devoted family man and a psychopathic killer; a terrible enemy, yet a wonderful friend. While donating millions to the poor, he bombed and tortured his enemies - some had their eyeballs removed with hot spoons. Through ruthless cunning and America's insatiable appetite for cocaine, he became a multi-billionaire, who lived in a $100-million house with its own zoo. Pablo Escobar: Beyond Narcos demolishes the standard good versus evil telling of his story. The authorities were not hunting Pablo down to stop his cocaine business. They were taking over it. Shaun Attwood's War on Drugs trilogy - Pablo Escobar, American Made, and We Are Being Lied To - is a series of harrowing, action-packed and interlinked true stories that demonstrate the catastrophic consequences of drug prohibition."
