En pojke blir kvävd av en påse i munnen. Hot mot funktionshindrade planteras i filmer på YouTube och ungdomar lockas in i ofrivilliga terroraktioner. Leonard Bengtsson och Ronny Nyberg vid Örnsköldsvikspolisen letar nazistiska kopplingar och står inför ett av de största mysterier staden någonsin upplevt. Det är en spännande detektivroman som förutom den gastkramande handlingen även tar upp främlingshat och de funktionshindrades roll i dagens Sverige.

Ett upphittat kranium från stenåldern och en mystisk drunkningsolycka i en myr blir upptakten till två annorlunda mordgåtor i två olika tidsepoker i den lilla byn Banafjäl utanför Örnsköldsvik. Ingen hade kunnat ana de vittgående konsekvenserna av fynden. Sofia Hägglund, ung arkeolog, börjar skönja ett uråldrigt samband mellan de båda morden. När så kommunalrådet i Ö-vik sprängs i luften på sitt kontor kopplas kriminalpoliserna Ronny Nyberg och Leonard Bengtsson in i fallet där det förflutna smyger sig på dem som en begynnande istid.

Två omaka barndomsvänner växer upp tillsammans, men går åt olika håll i livet, på var sin sida om lagen. När deras banor åter korsas får det ett förlopp som ingen av dem kunnat drömma om. En roman om mytbildning och en strävan att framstå som sin myt till vilket pris som helst vävs ihop i lantlig miljö med udda byoriginal och mycket mänsklig värme. Under några varma augustiveckor i byn Banafjäl utanför Örnsköldsvik utspelar sig dramat där två mystiska mord till synes utan samband förbryllar kriminalpoliserna Ronny Nyberg och hans kollega Leonard Bengtsson.

Ett försvinnande som inte är ett försvinnande. En kremering som inte är en kremering. Ett lik som inte är ett lik. Leonard Bengtsson och Ronny Nyberg hos Örnsköldsvikspolisen får ett märkligt fall på halsen i vintermörkret som även inbegriper Leonards släkt bakåt i tiden. Dessutom försvinner arkeologen Sofia Hägglunds mormor, ett av byn Banafjäls original, spårlöst i vintermörkret. Vi möter återigen en Leonard Bengtsson i högform, som förutom att mitt på ljusa dagen gräva upp gravar i Sundsvall, handgripligen försöker mota bort plogbilen från sin gårdsplan.

Eden Green is the third human to see the needles in action, after her best friend Veronica accepts them without thinking.

Intelligence and Surprise Attack examines why surprise attacks often succeed even though, in most cases, warnings are available beforehand. Erik J. Dahl challenges the conventional wisdom about intelligence failure, which holds that attacks succeed because important warnings get lost amid noise or because intelligence officials lack the imagination and collaboration to connect the dots of available information.

In lively prose that is as engaging as it is illuminating, Dattner tells a host of true stories of those he has worked with - from the woman who was so scapegoated by her colleagues that she decided to quit, to the clueless boss who was too quick to blame his staff. He shares a wealth of insight from the study of human evolution and psychology to reveal the underlying reasons why people are so prone to blaming and credit-grabbing; it's not only human nature, it's found throughout the animal kingdom.

Roald Dahl had an abiding love for and interest in nature. He kept notes about the habits of moles and foxes, the colour and song of birds and the different flowers, plants and berries that blossomed in the countryside around his home, Gipsy House, throughout the year. In the last year of his life he worked on a diary. But what was originally intended to be a few lines turned into a memorable account of the passing year.

"Ce livre n'est pas une autobiographie. L'idée ne me viendrait pas d'écrire pareil ouvrage. Par ailleurs, durant mes jeunes années à l'école, et juste après, ma vie a été émaillée d'incidents que je n'ai jamais oubliés. Certains furent drôles. Certains douloureux. Certains déplaisants. C'est pour cette raison, je suppose, que je me les rappelle tous de façon si aiguë."
