From the creator of Hannibal Lecter and The Silence of the Lambs comes a story of evil, greed and the consequences of dark obsession. Twenty-five million dollars in cartel gold lies hidden beneath a mansion on the Miami Beach waterfront. Ruthless men have tracked it for years. Leading the pack is Hans-Peter Schneider. Driven by unspeakable appetites, he makes a living fleshing out the violent fantasies of other, richer men. Cari Mora, caretaker of the house, has escaped from the violence in her native country. She stays in Miami on a wobbly Temporary Protected Status, subject to the iron whim of ICE. She works at many jobs to survive. Beautiful, marked by war, Cari catches the eye of Hans-Peter as he closes in on the treasure. But Cari Mora has surprising skills, and her will to survive has been tested before. Monsters lurk in the crevices between male desire and female survival. No other writer in the last century has conjured those monsters with more terrifying brilliance than Thomas Harris. Cari Mora, his sixth novel, is the long-awaited return of an American master.
Transakční analýza, která mění vědomí a chování lidí, kteří nikdy nepoznali pocit, že jsou OK Co je to „šťastné dětství“? Většina z nás vyrůstá s pocity NEJSEM OK, s pocity bezbranného DÍTĚTE, zcela závislého na OK dospělých, od kterých přichází pohlazení i trest. Jak říká doktor Harris, kolem třetího roku života dochází většina z nás k podvědomému rozhodnutí NEJSEM OK – TY JSI OK. Tento negativní životní postoj, který ovládá rovnou měrou úspěšné i neúspěšné jedince, kontaminuje náš racionální potenciál DOSPĚLÉHO. Zanechává nás zranitelné kvůli nepřiměřeným emocionálním reakcím našeho DÍTĚTE a nekriticky naučenému chování, které je naprogramované do našeho DOSPĚLÉHO. Lidé s postojem NEJSEM OK se ve vzájemných vztazích uchylují ke škodlivým formám ústupků, rituálů, činností, zábav a her, aby získali potřebné pohlazení, a vyhýbají se bolestné důvěrnosti s lidmi, kteří se zdají být OK. Průkopnická práce doktora Thomase Harrise o Transakční analýze má zásadní vliv na naše chápání a na to, jak se lidé chovají v mezilidských vztazích. Návodem k tomu, jak učinit vědomé rozhodnutí JÁ JSEM OK – TY JSI OK, pomáhá autor nalézt milionům lidí svobodu, která je nutná k jejich změně a osvobození a aktivně je vede k vzájemnému sblížení v životě.

Pred Grahamom je dvostruki izazov – uhvatiti poremećenog ubojicu i pobijediti vlastite sablasti.
