Nobody asked him to step in. I had everything under control, but by the time I shuffled onstage, there was no chance to stop him. Men ogled and touched as I offered my body and soul to the highest bidder, and I could tell my stranger didn’t like what he saw. Or maybe he did. Maybe he liked it too much, and that was why his number shot up. A quarter billion dollars and one existential crisis later, Cash Primrose was dragging me down the aisle in the name of convenience. I suppose it could be worse.

Amara is my dark obsession. She was promised to me in a deal she knows nothing about. Four years ago, I sent her away to protect her from the life I live as the son of a crime lord.

Glamourös, klug und unabhängig, eine moderne Frau und eine gewitzte Detektivin - das ist Phryne Fisher. Die wohlhabende englische Aristokratin lässt sich in den wilden 1920er Jahren in Melbourne nieder und lebt mit ihren beiden Adoptivtöchtern in St. Kilda, wo sie ihr Single-Dasein in vollen Zügen genießt - und nebenbei einen Mordfall nach dem anderen löst. Nicht immer zur Freude der örtlichen Polizei. Das kleine Städtchen St. Kilda steht kopf: Der Zirkus ist in der Stadt, und in wenigen Tagen wird die große Blumenparade stattfinden.

Wieder einmal ist Miss Fishers Spürsinn gefragt. Ein Orchesterdirigent, von niemandem besonders gemocht, wird tot aufgefunden: ermordet auf höchst extravagante Weise, in der Mendelssohn Bartholdys Oratorium Elias eine zentrale Rolle spielt. Während die clevere Detektivin entschlossen ist, das Rätsel um die 'Partitur des Todes' zu lösen, versucht sie zeitgleich, auf ihre einzigartige Weise, einem alten Freund zu helfen, der unglücklich in den genialen wie unsympathischen Mathematiker und Codeknacker Rubert Sheffield verliebt ist.

Ein Antiquitätenhändler wird tot am Strand von St. Kilda aufgefunden - war es Mord oder Selbstmord? Phryne Fishers Spürsinn ist gefragt. Und als wäre das nicht genug, soll sie noch ein illegitimes Kind ausfindig machen, dem ein großes Erbe winkt. Trotz der nicht endenwollenden Hitzewelle, die Melbourne heimsucht, heißt es nun, einen kühlen Kopf zu bewahren. Unerschrocken, mit Charme und Chuzpe nimmt Phryne Fisher die Ermittlungen auf und muss sich dabei mit unliebsamen englischen Aristokraten, dubiosen Geisterbeschwörern und allerlei merkwürdigen Gestalten herumschlagen.

Wenn Monsieur Anatole die gewitzte Detektivin Phryne Fisher in sein Restaurant einlädt, ist von vorherein klar, dass er ihr nicht nur seine köstliche Zwiebelsuppe vorsetzen wird, sondern auch einen Fall für sie hat: Seine Verlobte ist verschwunden, und Phryne soll herausfinden, wer sie entführt hat. Phrynes Cleverness ist gefragt. Alle Spuren führen nach Paris - und Phryne zurück in ihre eigene Vergangenheit zwischen Spanischer Grippe, Rive Gauche und großen Gefühlen.

49 a. C. Alla luce della luna, una donna dai lunghi capelli sciolti sulle spalle, il viso segnato dal tempo ma intatto nella sua bellezza, tiene tra le mani una lettera. La grafia è quella del suo amante di una vita, Gaio Giulio Cesare, e la voluttà con cui ha vergato il nome di lei, Servilia, è la stessa che a lungo li ha avvinti. Fuori, un vento gelido sferza Roma, vento di tempesta e, forse, presagio di sventura.

They say every proud man must fall. Mortals who fancy themselves gods will one day kneel. I thought myself invincible; Apollo on Earth. Mocked my brother when he succumbed to such a fate. Before I noticed the blue-haired nymph lurking in the background. Cora Astor shouldn’t have come to this island. She sneered in my direction, beguiling me with her disgust. As a Wolfe, hunting is in my blood. Getting what I want is my nature. Even when I know I can never have it. Though I cannot keep her, I plan to relish the chase.

Martin est garde au parc national des Pyrénées. Il travaille notamment au suivi des derniers ours. Mais depuis un an et demi, on n'a plus trouvé la moindre trace de Cannellito, le seul plantigrade avec un peu de sang pyrénéen qui fréquentait encore ces forêts, pas d'empreinte de tout l'hiver, aucun poil sur les centaines d'arbres observés. Martin en est chaque jour plus convaincu : les chasseurs auront eu la peau de l'animal. L'histoire des hommes, n'est-ce pas celle du massacre de la faune sauvage ?
