The Jackdaw

London 2005: To teenagedrenge begår en forbrydelse, der er så hårrejsende, at hele England gribes af chok og raseri. Da liget af Abigail Riley bliver fundet i et beskyttelsesrum under jorden, kaster kriminalassistent Fraser Harvey sig ud i en jagt på morderne, hvis moralske fordærvelse kun overgås af deres naivitet. 11 år senere: Da de to unge mordere bliver løsladt og begynder et nyt liv med nye identiteter i fjerntliggende lande, bliver sagen ved med at hjemsøge Harvey. Han er overbevist om, at den ene – eller begge – vil slå ihjel igen. Det bekymrer Harvey, så han må beslutte, hvor langt han er villig til at gå for at forhindre det – og hvilken pris han er villig til at betale sammen med alle de andre, hvis liv blev ændret for altid som følge af Abigails frygtelige skæbne. ”To ondsindede morddømte er nu på fri fod – og en betjent er lige i hælene på dem - i en roman af den forfatter, der ’kender Londons kriminelle underverden som sin egen bukselomme’.” • The Times ”Følelsen af at være helt inde i hjertet af politiets efterforskning siver ud af hver eneste side.” • Daily Mail ”Skræmmende autentisk.” • The Sun ”Vanedannende … holder dig fast og får dig til at fryse.” • Richmond Times-Dispatch ”Hop i, føl dig hjemme, men husk at skrue op for varmen, for det her er en iskold krimi, når den er bedst.” • Crime Review Luke Delaney kom ind i Metropolitan-politiet sidst i 1980’erne og fik sin første stilling i den indre del af det sydøstlige London, som er berygtet for et højt niveau af kriminalitet og ekstrem vold. Snart efter blev han ansat i Criminal Investigation Division, hvor han efterforskede alle typer af mord, fra dem, der bliver begået af helt grønne seriemordere, til banderelaterede likvideringer. I dag er han en succesrig og anmelderrost forfatter. Hans første roman, Cold Killing, blev udgivet i 2013, og handlingen i hans seneste bog – Dødens drenge – udspiller sig omkring hovedpersonen, kriminalassistent Ruben Jameson.

Für immer mein

Ein Opfer. Zwei Mörder. Ein Verbrechen, das das gesamte Land schockiert. Zwei gewalttätige Ex-Häftlingen sind wieder auf freiem Fuß –und ein Polizist ist ihnen dicht auf den Fersen. Luke Delaney, der „die Londoner Verbrecherszene wie seine Westentasche kennt“ (The Times) erzählt in diesem Roman von der Tat, aber auch von deren Nachwirkungen. 2005 begehen zwei Teenager in London ein so abscheuliches Verbrechen, dass das ganze Land geschockt und aufgebracht ist. Als die Leiche der vierzehnjährigen Abigail Riley in einem unterirdischen Bunker gefunden wird, macht sich DS Fraser Harvey auf die Jagd nach ihren Mördern – deren Brutalität nur noch von ihrer Naivität übertroffen wird. Elf Jahre später werden die jungen Mörder mit neuen Identitäten in ferne Länder umgesiedelt. Und der Fall lässt Harvey immer noch nicht los, er ist überzeugt, dass einer –oder beide –wieder töten werden. Harvey befürchtet, als Einziger den Tod weiterer Unschuldiger verhindern zu können, und muss sich entscheiden, wie weit er dafür zu gehen bereit ist – zu welchem Preis für ihn selbst und auch für all die anderen, deren Leben durch Abigails furchtbares Schicksal für immer verändert wurde. --- Luke Delaney trat Ende der 1980er Jahre in den Metropolitan Police Service ein, wo er zunächst in einem innerstädtischen Gebiet im Südosten Londons eingesetzt wurde, das für hohe Kriminalitätsraten und extreme Gewalt berüchtigt war. Bald darauf wechselte er zur Kriminalpolizei, wo er in Mordfällen ermittelte. Dabei hatte er es mit allem Möglichen zu tun, von jungen Serienkillern bis zu Bandenmorden. Heute ist er ein erfolgreicher Autor. 2013 erschien sein erster Roman Mein bist du, der erste von fünf Bänden der Serie um DI Sean Corrigan. Er ist auch der Autor von The Rule of Fear, der Geschichte eines jungen Streifenpolizisten, der in Korruption und Gewalt abrutscht. --- „Auf jeder Seite hat man das Gefühl, im Zentrum einer polizeilichen Ermittlung zu stehen.“ –Daily Mail „Beängstigende Authentizität.“ –The Sun „Süchtig machend ... fesselnd und spannend.“ –Richmond Times-Dispatch „Dieses tolle Buch war mein erstes von Luke Delaney, der inzwischen einer meiner neuen Lieblingsautoren ist. Die Geschichte fesselt einen von Anfang an, und man liest weiter und weiß, dass man sie nie vergessen wird ... Ich vergebe selten 5-Sterne-Bewertungen. Aber bei diesem Buch? Auf jeden Fall!!!“ –Amazon-Rezension „... eine spannende Geschichte, die ich von Anfang bis Ende genossen habe ... Die Plot-Twists sorgen für Hochspannung ... Absolute Leseempfehlung.“ –Amazon-Rezension „Fantastisch geschrieben, düsterer Realismus vom Feinsten ... Ich war megagespannt, empfand Angst, Mitleid, Abscheu, Traurigkeit, eine absolute emotionale Achterbahnfahrt ... Ein großartiges Buch“ –Amazon-Rezension „... von Anfang an absolut fesselnd ... Kann sein nächstes Buch kaum erwarten ...“ –Amazon-Rezension
