    "Da jeg hørte, hvordan McAra var død, skulle jeg være taget af sted. Det indser jeg nu."Fortælleren i Robert Harris’ fængslende nye roman er professionel ghostwriter – kynisk og beregnende. Han er vant til at skrive om afdankede rockstjerner og de halvkendte og griber derfor chancen med kyshånd, da han bliver bedt om at ghostskrive Englands tidligere premierministers erindringer. Og det bliver bestemt ikke mindre attraktivt af, at han skal flyve fra den engelske vinter til Martha’s Vineyard i USA, hvor han på et afsidesliggende og meget luksuriøst feriested skal færdiggøre bogen. Men han indser hurtigt, at han har begået en stor fejl. Hans forgænger på projektet døde under mystiske omstændigheder, og eks-premierministeren viser sig at være en mand med hemmeligheder fra fortiden – hemmeligheder, der dukker op igen, og som kan dræbe.The Times har kaldt Robert Harris ’den bedste og absolut førende forfatter af den intelligente litterære spændingsroman’. The Ghost er hans mest overbevisende roman til dato.Pressen skrev:"Det er som at opleve en dramatiseret udgave af virkeligheden med en lille tvist, når man læser Robert Harris’ politiske thriller "Skyggen"." - Jyllands-Posten"Robert Harris’ sidste politiske thriller er fremragende skrevet, sindssyg spændende og sort som ind i det sen-moderne helvede, som hedder krigen mod terror ... en rigtig hæsblæsende ’pageturner’, som truer nattesøvn og husorden; ideligt elegant skrevet med rappe dialoger og skruede sidebemærkninger." - Politiken

    Stedet er Rom og tiden er år 63 f.Kr. Syv mænd kæmper om magten i republikken: Cicero er konsul, Cæsar hans ubarmhjertige unge rival, Pompejus er republikkens mægtigste general, Crassus dens rigeste mand, Cato er politisk fanatiker, Catilina psykopaten og Clodius en ambitiøs playboy.Historierne om disse virkelige historiske figurer – deres alliancer og forræderi, deres grusomheder og forførelser, deres storslåethed og deres forbrydelser – det hele er flettet sammen i denne farverige roman. Fortælleren er Tiro, som er Ciceros betroede sekretær, og han kender alle sin herres hemmeligheder, noget der bringer ham i en vanskelig og til tider livsfarlig position.Beskrivelser af bl.a. fundet af et lemlæstet barnelig, henrettelser, en skandaløs retssag og den romerske mafias hærgen gør Lustrum til et fascinerende studium af magtens anatomi, dens evigt tillokkende karakter og dens enorme rædsler.Robert Harris (f.1957) debuterede med romanen Fædrelandet i 1992 og har siden skrevet en række romaner, bl.a. Pompeji og Imperium og den politiske thriller Skyggen. Harris har bl.a. abejdet for BBC og the Observer som politisk kommentator.

    First published in 1992, Crime, Criminal Justice and the Probation Service is a thought-provoking analysis of the role of the probation service in developing an integrated system of criminal justice. Robert Harris provides readable information about our knowledge of such areas as criminal statistics, victims, fear of crime and crime prevention. He also explores the treatment of women and ethnic minorities by the criminal justice system, the question of a sentencing council and the future of community corrections. A central theme is that all the professionals involved in the criminal justice system must work more closely together so that the mistakes of the past can be avoided in the future. The book therefore has a wide appeal not only to probation officers and social workers, but also to criminal justice professionals and administrators, including the police and the legal profession.

    The world outside America's borders is a dangerous place. In fact, it's almost as dangerous as the world INside America's borders!This book chronicles all the times Louisiana-born Texas transplant Robert Harris learned that the hard way in his ten-year sojourn abroad. From cluelessly sipping cobra venom with Chinese gangsters in Guangdong Province to nearly losing his leg in a Beijing hospital, from courting a Russian ex-model to fighting against the Russian army, and from scratching out a living as a freelance tutor in Shanghai to owning a private school in Kharkiv, this rags-to-riches-and-back-again memoir takes aim at more than one country's pretensions of grandeur and is not shy about pointing out that there are emperors on both sides of the Pacific who have no clothes. Like the expat life it depicts, it is filled with shenanigans punctuated by moments of sheer terror, and features the constantly-rotating cast of misfits and oddballs one only encounters in the semi-nomadic life of those who have bid their homeland farewell.In the end, when the laughter dies away, it dares the reader to ask the same question that the author confronted. "Is America really 'The Greatest Nation on Earth' as we've all been taught?"

    Claude Monet, weary of painting haystacks and cathedrals and lily ponds, finally pursues his real passion: criminal investigation. And after two long months of waiting, he has his first case. He's called in to investigate the theft of two unremarkable paintings from Galerie Neuf in Paris. He's thrilled to have his first case, but quickly finds out that the theory and practice of investigation are two different things. Despite the obstacles, he's determined to crack the case and bring the perpetrator to justice. Only then will he be taken seriously as a private eye. Only then can he start spending less time at the easel and more time looking into crimes, mysteries, and nefarious activities. He's got what he needs to succeed: unsurpassed observations skills, an active imagination, and a tendency to mangle metaphors. He just needs to assemble the pieces to form a coherent composition―preferably one not involving water lilies.***Robert Harris is a writer, inventor, and puzzle constructor with a background in Art and Cognitive Psychology.
