The Cocaine Chronicles
ISBN: 9781617750298 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "The best stories in The Cocaine Chronicles . . . are equal to the best fiction being written today."
--New York Journal of Books "While The Cocaine Chronicles is a hard, honest, uncompromising read and might not be for the faint of heart, the stories it tells all have to do with a drug that's been around for a while and is not going anywhere. Also, some stories offer a bit of hope, which shine through as invitations to never give up." --Austin Post "The perfect stocking stuffer for your uncle in AA." --New York Observer...

2 Detectives: Loveday Brooke / Lady Molly of Scotland Yard
ISBN: 9781616461126 / Angielski / Miękka / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume of 2 Detectives pairs two early "lady detectives" who showed that intelligence, investigative skills, and courage were not limited to those of the masculine variety. Loveday Brooke's undercover skills allowed her to blend into the background and gather intelligence without tipping off the suspects. She was the consummate professional, much appreciated by her boss, though she didn't always agree with him (and he didn't always understand her methods). These seven stories were published in 1893 and 1894. Lady Molly quickly worked her way to the top of Scotland Yard's female...
