Story
Cela fait deux ans que Paul Hansen purge sa peine dans la prison provinciale de Montréal. Il y partage une cellule avec Horton, un Hells Angel incarcéré pour meurtre. Retour en arrière : Hansen est superintendant a L'Excelsior, une résidence où il déploie ses talents de concierge, de gardien, de factotum, et - plus encore - de réparateur des âmes et consolateur des affligés. Lorsqu'il n'est pas occupé à venir en aide aux habitants de L'Excelsior ou à entretenir les bâtiments, il rejoint Winona, sa compagne.

Story
"Je ne t'aime plus." Il aura suffi de cinq mots pour que l'univers de Pauline bascule. Installée avec son fils de quatre ans chez ses parents, elle laisse les jours s'écouler en attendant que la douleur s'estompe. Jusqu'au moment où elle décide de reprendre sa vie en main. Si les sentiments de Ben se sont évanouis, il suffit de les ranimer. Chaque jour, elle va donc lui écrire un souvenir de leur histoire. Mais cette plongée dans le passé peut faire resurgir les secrets les plus enfouis.

Story
"Avec Mathilde, jamais une balle plus haute que l'autre, du travail propre et sans bavures. Ce soir est une exception. Une fantaisie. Elle aurait pu agir de plus loin, faire moins de dégâts, et ne tirer qu'une seule balle, bien sûr." Dans ce réjouissant jeu de massacre où l'on tue tous les affreux, Pierre Lemaitre joue en virtuose de sa plume caustique. Avec cette œuvre de jeunesse inédite, il fait cadeau à ses lecteurs d'un roman noir et subversif qui marque ses adieux au genre. Dialogues cinglants, portraits saisissants, scénario impitoyable : du pur Pierre Lemaitre.

Story
"Il ne faut pas sous-estimer la rage de survivre." Sous la forme d'un conte, Amélie Nothomb raconte la vie de Patrick, son père, doux enfant angélique qui, jeune adulte, devra se confronter à la mort. Un magnifique hommage à la figure paternelle mais aussi à un héros de l'ombre, diplomate à la carrière hors norme. Avec ce 30e roman, Amélie Nothomb signe un de ses textes les plus personnels, qu'elle a choisi de confier à Françoise Gillard. Une lecture toute en douceur et sensibilité.

Publisher's summary
Lui, dix-huit ans, fils de bonne famille, solitaire et rêveur. Elle, sans âge, sans domicile, abîmée par la vie et l'alcool. Tout les sépare.
Pourtant, un jour, rue du Bac, à Paris, leurs chemins se croisent. Contre toute attente, une extraordinaire amitié se noue. De celles qui changent une vie. De celles qui forgent à jamais une personnalité.
Saisir sa chance, affronter le mystère familial qui le hante, c'est ce que Célestine va transmettre à Martin. Et plus encore...
"Ce roman, je l'ai écrit en 1990. J'avais rangé le manuscrit dans un carton, puis l'avais oublié. Jusqu'au jour où, à l'occasion d'un déménagement, nous nous sommes retrouvés, lui et moi. Je l'ai relu avec émotion et il m'a semblé qu'il avait aujourd'hui une résonance particulière. Il est là, entre vos mains." Tatiana de Rosnay.
Inclus la lecture de la lettre aux lecteurs et des remerciements par l'autrice.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.
