A star-studded movie premier in L.A. descends into chaos when a shooter opens fire on the crowd. The culprit escapes and boards a plane to Dublin, Ireland. Jack Morgan, the head of the world’s largest private detective agency, is at the premiere and his partner Justine is badly wounded in the shooting. Following the gunman to Dublin, Jack soon realises that this is much bigger than a single shooter. What Jack thought was a random act of violence was actually a targeted attempt on his life.

Afgetrede polisieman Jaap Reyneke vra Sarah Fourie, ’n rekenaargenie met ’n kriminele rekord, om die raaisel rondom die dood van sy peetdogter, Janien Steyn, op te los. Janien was op die oog af geliefd, ’n suksesvolle kunstenaar met ’n slag vir besigheid, en op die punt om met haar universiteitsliefde te trou. Was dit selfdood of moord? Waarom is die toneel om haar liggaam so sorgvuldig, amper kunstig, gerangskik? En hoekom is haar rekenaar se geheue voor die tyd so sorgvuldig skoongevee?
Set on the coast of Sicily, The Safety Net is the twenty-fifth novel in the bestselling Inspector Montalbano series by Andrea Camilleri. ***Adapted for BBC4's Inspector Montalbano series*** Vigata is bustling as the new filming location for a Swedish television series set in 1950. In the production frenzy, the director asks the locals to track down movies and vintage photos to faithfully recreate the air of Vigata at that time. Meanwhile, Montalbano is grappling with a double mystery, one that emerges from the past and another that leads him into the future . . . Engineer Ernesto Sabatello, rummaging in the attic of his house, finds some films shot by his father between 1958 and 1963, always on the same day, 27 March, and always the same shot: the outside wall of a country house. Montalbano hears the story and, intrigued, begins to investigate its meaning. Meanwhile, a middle school is threatened by a group of armed men, and a closer look at the case finds Montalbano looking into the students themselves and delving into the world of social media.
