    The Power of Meow. Die Katze des Dalai Lama und der Zauber des Augenblicks, englische Ausgabe
    • Take a peek inside the mind of a delightfully imperfect creature on the path to enlightenment. In the latest instalment of the Dalai Lama's Cat series, readers escape to the enchanting and exotic world of the Dalai Lama's monastery in the Himalayas. His Holiness's Cat (HHC) is on a mission: to think less, to experience more, to live in the moment. She soon learns the proper phrase for this: being mindful, or, a concept better known to her as the power of meow. What ensues is a journey to discover her own true nature, to gain a deeper understanding of her mind and to experience life's greatest joy - the here and now. By accompanying HHC on her journey, you will learn new ways to relate to your own mind: slowing down, finding peace and abiding in the boundless radiance and benevolence that is your own true nature.

      In the morning, they gave Reacher a medal. And in the afternoon, they sent him back to school. It's just a voice plucked from the air: 'The American wants a hundred million dollars'. For what? Who from? It's 1996, and the Soviets are long gone. But now there's a new enemy. In an apartment in Hamburg, a group of smartly-dressed young Saudis are planning something big. Jack Reacher is fresh off a secret mission and a big win. The Army pats him on the back and gives him a medal. And then they send him back to school. It's a school with only three students: Reacher, an FBI agent, and a CIA analyst. Their assignment? To find that American. And what he's selling. And to whom. There is serious shit going on, signs of a world gone mad. Night School takes Reacher back to his army days, but this time he's not in uniform. With trusted sergeant Frances Neagley at his side, he must carry the fate of the world on his shoulders, in a wired, fiendishly clever new adventure that will make the cold sweat trickle down your spine.

      A New York Times and USA TODAY bestseller about a good girl dangerously drawn to the ultimate bad boy. The new Abby Abernathy is a good girl. She doesn't drink or swear, and she has the appropriate number of cardigans in her wardrobe. Abby believes she has enough distance from the darkness of her past, but when she arrives at college with her best friend, her path to a new beginning is quickly challenged by Eastern University's Walking One-Night Stand. Travis Maddox, lean, cut, and covered in tattoos, is exactly what Abby wants--and needs--to avoid. He spends his nights winning money in a floating fight ring, and his days as the ultimate college campus charmer. Intrigued by Abby's resistance to his appeal, Travis tricks her into his daily life with a simple bet. If he loses, he must remain abstinent for a month. If Abby loses, she must live in Travis's apartment for the same amount of time. Either way, Travis has no idea that he has met his match.

      A una prima occhiata sembra un college come tanti, forse solo un po' più esclusivo degli altri. Ma a fare la differenza, a Evensong, sono gli alunni. Qui, infatti, vengono accolti ragazzi che hanno subito gravi traumi, che devono tornare a vivere, dopo che la morte li ha sfiorati troppo da vicino. Il posto giusto per Teddy Clock: ha solo quattordici anni, ma è già sopravvissuto a due spaventosi massacri. Due anni prima la sua famiglia d'origine è stata sterminata; da poco, una misteriosa e spietata mano omicida gli ha strappato anche i genitori adottivi. Ma per Teddy non sembra esistere un posto sicuro e la morte varca anche l'alto cancello del college...

      In Lee Child's astonishing new thriller, ex-military cop Reacher sees more than most people would, and because of that, he's thrust into an explosive situation that's about to blow up in his face. For the only way to find the truth, and save two innocent lives, is to do it the way Jack Reacher does it best: the hard way. Jack Reacher was alone, the way he liked it, soaking up the hot, electric New York City night, watching a man cross the street to a parked Mercedes and drive it away. The car contained one million dollars in ransom money. And Edward Lane, the man who paid it, will pay even more to get his family back. Lane runs a highly illegal soldiers for hire operation. He will use any amount of money and any tool to find his beautiful wife and child. And then he'll turn Jack Reacher loose with a vengeance because Reacher is the best man hunter in the world. On the trail of a vicious kidnapper, Reacher is learning the chilling secrets of his employer's past, and of a horrific drama in the heart of a nasty little war. He's beginning to realize that Edward Lane is hiding something. Something dirty. Something big. But Reacher also knows this: he's already in way too deep to stop now.
