Am 24. Februar 2022 schickte Wladimir Putin seine Armee gegen die Ukraine in den Krieg und traf damit eine Entscheidung, die das politische und ökonomische Gleichgewicht der ganzen Welt ins Wanken brachte. Der russische Angriffskrieg bringt unzählige menschliche Tragödien und immense materielle Zerstörung mit sich, und er wirft eine zentrale Frage auf: Wer ist Wladimir Putin, dieser Mann, der sich weigert, Lehren aus dem Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion zu ziehen, und der von der Rückkehr zu den Grenzen des Zarenreichs und der Wiedereinsetzung eines Regimes träumt, das sich der totalitären Methoden des Stalinismus bedient?

The first rule of nuclear war is that there are no rules. Up to now, no one outside of official circles has known exactly what would happen if a rogue state launched a nuclear missile at the Pentagon. Second by second and minute by minute, these are the real-life protocols that choreograph the end of civilisation as we know it. Because the plans for General Nuclear War are among the most classified secrets held by the United States government, this book takes the listener up to the razor’s edge of what can legally be known.

Story
On 26th May 1986, the body of an undercover British agent was found by the side of a muddy lane, with a rope tied around its wrists and tape over each eye. The brutal killing of Frank Hegarty began a decades-long search for justice. In a compulsive blend of investigative journalism and true crime thriller, Henry Hemming exposes the parallel worlds of the IRA and British intelligence through the lives of those inextricably bound up in both.

Story
¿Qué pasa si en un país inestable aparece un líder inestable? Este libro quería ser una radiografía de la nueva derecha que hoy tiene como líder a Javier Milei. Pero con el correr de los meses, de las entrevistas, de los encuentros off the record, de seguir facturas, sellos y papeleríos, el trabajo pasó de ser uno de campo con ribetes casi académicos a un thriller tragicómico, a medio camino entre los policiales negros de Raymond Chandler y La conjura de los necios de John Kennedy Toole. Los secretos místicos de Milei fueron la primera revelación que obligaron a cambiar los planes.

Story
Os chineses nos intrigam. O regime é comunista, mas a economia é capitalista. Eles ficaram enclausurados durante os quase trinta anos de governo de Mao Tsé-Tung e agora viajam pelo mundo todo e são os maiores usuários de internet do planeta. Quem são, afinal, esses 1,3 bilhão de chineses? Por que a relação do país com o Ocidente—e com os vizinhos—mudou tanto ao longo do tempo? Como esse país milenar, responsável por invenções importantíssimas para a humanidade como o papel e a bússola, pode ser acusado de copiar tecnologias estrangeiras?
