Killing Moon (Paperback): Jo Nesbo Killing Moon (Paperback)
Jo Nesbo; Translated by Seán Kinsella
R275 R246 Discovery Miles 2 460 Save R29 (11%) Ships in 5 - 10 working days

When a body is found in the forest, the police make a horrifying discovery: her scalp has been removed and sewn back on. But they have no idea why.

With a second woman reported missing, detectives fear their worst nightmare has come true.

A serial killer is stalking the streets of Oslo.

With time running out to find the woman, former detective Harry Hole is called in to think like a murderer thinks... and to track down this killer before they strike again.

But Harry has ulterior motives for wanting to solve this case and, if he fails, there could be more than one life at risk.

Land of Many Truths - Three Lives in Afghanistan (Hardcover): Ã…sne Seierstad Land of Many Truths - Three Lives in Afghanistan (Hardcover)
Åsne Seierstad; Translated by Seán Kinsella
R763 R657 Discovery Miles 6 570 Save R106 (14%) Ships in 9 - 17 working days

In her international bestseller The Bookseller of Kabul, Ã…sne Seierstad studied life in Afghanistan during the final days and after the fall of the Taliban regime. Now twenty years later, the Taliban is back in power, and Seierstad returns with a book to help us understand the present and future of Afghanistan. The fall of the western-backed government mirroring the Taliban's own swift fall two decades earlier. The West promoted ideals of democracy, gender equality and human rights. Why did these ideas not take root? How did the lives of ordinary people change across these two decades? What do the Afghan people think about their country now? Following on from The Bookseller of Kabul, Land of Many Truths tells the story of Afghanistan now. To do so, Seierstad takes us inside the live of her three main protagonists - Jamila, Bashir and Ariana - and their families, friends, foes and co-fighters. Jamila is a prominent women's rights activist; Bashi is a Taliban commander; Ariana is a law student who had one semester left when the Taliban came to power. Through their stories, we experience what has happened on the ground since the fall of the Taliban in 2001, how the first year of Taliban rule unfolded, and where this leaves Afghans such as Jamila and Bashir today, and tomorrow. 'Seierstad is masterful . . . her book is world class' Aftonbladet 'Gripping . . . Seierstad succeeds in transforming the demonised stereotype - a Taliban terrorist - into a living, comprehensible human being' Expressen 'Enthralling and heart-breaking' Dagens Noeringsliv
