Redemption (eBook, ePUB)
A man discovers that quitting his job comes with a price-his life-in this breakneck financial thriller from the acclaimed author of the Joe DeMarco series. With his reputation permanently marred by an insider trading conviction, Jamison Maddox, a young Wall Street broker, reluctantly takes a job doing research for a small company in the sleepy town of Redemption, Illinois. But when he falls in love with a beautiful and enigmatic colleague, Gillian, Jamison begins to realize that he may be doing illegal work for the company. So when she asks him to run away with her, he agrees wholeheartedly. The two set off across the country, hoping to secure some money and go into hiding. The company is soon on their tails, pursuing them with the single-minded goal of silencing them forever. If Jamison hadn't realized how dangerous these people really are, he now realizes they will stop at nothing to protect the company. And he has no idea that his lover, a stunning woman shrouded in mystery, is as dangerous as the people he's running from. "[An] excellent legal thriller. . . . Lawson's meticulous plotting keeps upping the suspense to nearly unbearable levels. This basic plot worked wonders 30 years ago for John Grisham in The Firm; in Lawson's capable hands it's once again a winner." -Publishers Weekly Praise for Mike Lawson "A reliably excellent writer . . . As always, Lawson's plotting is ingenious and his characters memorable." -Seattle Times "What a pleasure to read a book by a writer who gets everything right-the engaging protagonist, the fluid and often funny dialogue, the quick-paced and believable plot . . . Grade: A." -Cleveland Plain Dealer "Lawson remains at the top of his game." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) "This is a consistently entertaining, well-crafted series. The real mystery here is why Lawson has yet to garner a major award." -Booklist (starred review)- Shop: buecher

The Rising of the Court , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 232min
This collection consists of eight short stories and nine poems and was first published in 1910. The opening story is an examination of a quaint legal custom in New South Wales whereby a defendant could be sentenced to a period of imprisonment that was to end when the court hearing finished. Lawson describes a day in court just before the holiday season in which the offenders are hoping that the magistrate will be in a benevolent mood and impose no sentence that extends beyond the "rising of the court". The next six stories deal with characters encountering difficult situations, some heartbreaking and some comic but all informed by Lawson's wry sense of irony, which rarely sinks into unrelieved bitterness. In the final prose piece, Lawson explores the Australian concept of "mateship" as applied to friendships between characters in two plays by Shakespeare, Julius Caesar and Timon of Athens. In both style and content, Lawson's verse is more conservative than his prose. His schemes of meter and rhyme are quite conventional, and he favors marching rhythms, which give his verse an upbeat quality that is often lacking in the stark world of his stories. This collection is presented by the Australian narrator Denis Daly. Prose: 1. "The Rising of the Court" 2. "Roll Up at Talbragar" 3. "Wanted by the Police" 4. "The Bath" 5. "Instinct Gone Wrong" 6. "The Hypnotised Township" 7. "The Exciseman" 8. "Mateship in Shakespeare's Rome" Verse: 9. "One Hundred and Three" 10. "The Army of the Rear" 11. "The Friends of Fallen Fortunes" 12. "The Port o' Call 13. The Man Who Raised Charlestown" 14. "The Southerly Buster" 15. "Tambaroora Jim" 16. "Lake Eliza" 17. "In the Days When We Are Dead" © Voices of Today 2015 ungekürzt.
