1. Vann- og avløpsteknikk - Hallvard Ødegaard
|
|||
Vann- og avløpsteknikk er et oppslagsverk og en lærebok med en bred målgruppe i VA-Norge. Det vil si at boka i tillegg til å være en lærebok for høgskoler og universiteter, er en ypperlig håndbok for alle som jobber med vann og avløp. Det er lagt vekk på å presentere teknikker som er vanlig i Norge samt norsk dimensjoneringspraksis – opparbeidet gjennom flere tiår. VA-teknikken er imidlertid i utvikling – på samme måte som samfunnet, og det vil derfor med all sannsynlighet være behov for revisjoner av boka med jevne mellomrom. |

4. Atomic Habits - James Clear
|
|||
THE PHENOMENAL INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER: OVER 20 MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE Transform your life with tiny changes in behaviour, starting now. People think that when you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way. He knows that real change comes from the compound effect of hundreds of small decisions: doing two push-ups a day, waking up five minutes early, or holding a single short phone call. He calls them atomic habits. In this ground-breaking book, Clears reveals exactly how these minuscule changes can grow into such life-altering outcomes. He uncovers a handful of simple life hacks (the forgotten art of Habit Stacking, the unexpected power of the Two Minute Rule, or the trick to entering the Goldilocks Zone), and delves into cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience to explain why they matter. Along the way, he tells inspiring stories of Olympic gold medalists, leading CEOs, and distinguished scientists who have used the science of tiny habits to stay productive, motivated, and happy. These small changes will have a revolutionary effect on your career, your relationships, and your life. ________________________________ A NEW YORK TIMES AND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'A supremely practical and useful book.'

Springtime in Styria. And that means war. There have been nineteen years of blood. The ruthless Grand Duke Orso is locked in a vicious struggle with the squabbling League of Eight, and between them they have bled the land white. While armies march, heads roll and cities burn, behind the scenes bankers, priests and older, darker powers play a deadly game to choose who will be king. War may be hell but for Monza Murcatto, the Snake of Talins, the most feared and famous mercenary in Duke Orso's employ, it's a damn good way of making money too. Her victories have made her popular - a shade too popular for her employer's taste. Betrayed, thrown down a mountain and left for dead, Murcatto's reward is a broken body and a burning hunger for vengeance. Whatever the cost, seven men must die. Her allies include Styria's least reliable drunkard, Styria's most treacherous poisoner, a mass-murderer obsessed with numbers and a Northman who just wants to do the right thing. Her enemies number the better half of the nation. And that's all before the most dangerous man in the world is dispatched to hunt her down and finish the job Duke Orso started... Springtime in Styria. And that means revenge. |

The stakes are sky-high when a power-mad Chinese president threatens Taiwan in the #1 New York Times bestselling Jack Ryan series.   For decades, Taiwan has been a thorn in the side of the Chinese government. An independent nation to the rest of the world, it is considered a rogue province by the PRC. Previous governments have tried to conquer the island using economic force and diplomatic pressure, but new Chinese President Li Jian Jun is done fooling around. He’s devised a secret military operation to take the island. Only one man knows how to stop Li’s mad and bloody plan for reunification and that’s Minister of Defense Qin Haiyu. Fearing for his life and the safety of his family, Qin covertly makes contact with the CIA in Beijing and signals his desire to defect to the West.   To get Qin out, John Clark creates an international task force reminiscent of Rainbow Six and goes undercover in mainland China. Meanwhile, Lt. Commander Katie Ryan is deployed to the tip of the spear on the destroyer USS Jason Dunham to defend Taiwan. Threatened by an encircling Chinese armada, she’s under pressure to find a flaw in the invaders’ plan for her father to exploit.   For his part, President Jack Ryan may have the power of the entire US military at his disposal, but what he really needs are Li’s secret plans from Defense Minister Qin so he can stave off a war. Because America’s Defense Protocol could lead to a game of mutual destruction that could cost the lives of thousands of young soldiers, sailors, special operators as well as his daughter. |

The only way Falcio can stop the country turning into a vicious theocracy is to find and stop the Saint-killer - but his only clue is the iron mask encasing the head of the Saint of Mercy, which prevents her from speaking.

15. Se på mig - Beata Arnborg
|
|||
Hon kallades Den sista divan - berömd, beryktad och dyrkad som få. Zarah Leander, född 1907 som Sara Hedberg i Karlstad vann sitt anseende som svensk revyartist. Hon skulle komma att bli Nazitysklands största filmstjärna och senare en stor internationell sångerska, känd för sin mörka röst och yviga gester. Hennes eftermäle är fyllt av frågor. Hennes namn har i 70 år burit hela Sveriges ambivalenta hållning till Tredje riket. Detta är den första svenska biografin över Zarah Leander. Hennes historia innehåller allt från armod till rikedom, förslagenhet, förtvivlan och jublande lycka. I boken framkommer tidigare okända fakta, bland annat om hennes tid i Tyskland. Vilken var hennes skuld, hennes ansvar? Leanders tyska tid - sex år av hennes liv - tillhör världshistorien. Hon var en kvinna och artist av stort format, en andlig amason. Inte ljuv men väl vacker, begåvad, rolig, ambitiös, passionerad och vänfast. De små orden räckte inte för henne, det visste även hennes vän Karl Gerhard när han presenterade henne: "Gör plats för Zarah, röd som djävulen i håret, vit i själen och med guld i strupen!" "I dag tycks hon mig intressantare än någonsin. Beata Arnborgs gedigna bladvändarbiografi följer Zarah Leander tätt i spåren, med upplysande sidoblickar på det svenska folkhemmets salonger och estrader." Camilla Lundberg, Dagens Nyheter "Beata Arnborgs skildring av den viljestarka Zarahs väg från Karlstad till världsberömmelse är medryckande trots sin detaljrikedom. Primadonnans personlighet lyser genom sidorna, och kanske allra mest när hon är utsatt, ansatt och kämpar ... Beata Arnborg tecknar ett rikt porträtt av en sammansatt människa. En utlevande diva som hade sådan scenskräck att hon ofta låg och spydde på toaletten inför sina föreställningar. En self made majorska på sin alldeles egen herrgård, som älskade att ordna storslagna fester och underhålla sina barn och barnbarn. En nazidiva och en bögikon. En människa som köper hem 200 rullar rosa toalettpapper från Wien. Lätt att sammanfatta är hon inte. Vi kommer inte undan henne, som del av vår historia, och spegel av vårt land under det nyss flydda 1900-talet." Torbjörn Elensky, Svenska Dagbladet "Visst är det en fantastisk historia journalisten Beata Arnborg berättar - och berättar med både kärlek och omsorg ... Beata Arnborgs hållning till henne är resonerande snarare än fördömande, till skillnad från de flesta i Sverige när hon kom hem 1943. Arnborg relativiserar också hennes skuld genom att påminna om hur många svenskar som sympatiserat med nazismen och behövde en syndabock." Merete Mazzarella, Upsala Nya tidning "Ingen har velat, eller snarare vågat, skriva en biografi över artisten Zarah Leander. Beata Arnborg saknar dock beröringsskräck för divan som var Nazitysklands stora filmstjärna under andra världskriget. Resultatet blir ett stort biografiskt verk som är mycket läsvärt Beata Arnborg har genom sin välskrivna biografi räddat minnet av en unik världsartist som på sitt sätt kanske var lite för stor för vårt lilla land. Biografin har även en annan stor förtjänst. Den blir en fin historieskrivning, om svenskt 1930-tal, om kriget, inte minst från tysk horisont, och om den förhoppningsfulla efterkrigstiden, om det ökade välståndet och de stora samhällsförändringarnas tid. Till sist kanske det kan vara på sin plats att låta Zarah Leander själv få uttala sig om sitt liv och sitt öde: 'Ingen ska ömka en människa som har framgång och som det blåser om'. Stolt var ordet!" Göran Kastlund, Dala-Demokraten "Spännande sträckläsning ... Artistens anknytning till nazisterna är naturligtvis bokens smärtpunkt och orsaken till att det först nu skrivits en biografi om vår största stjärna. Beata Arnborg rör sig välbalanserat på minerat område, med humor och respekt för föremålet. Här kommer den tredje insikten som Arnborg förmedlar: En bild av Sverige visar sig. Hon var som Sverige. Inte så bra." Anne Brügge, Arbetarbladet "Maffiga kvinnor kräver maffiga böcker. Allt annat än en tegelsten hade varit en skymf mot Zarah Leander och det hajar Beata Arnborg som serverar 500 fullmatade biografisidor om vår mörkröstade diva. Mest spännande är åren kring andra världskriget då Zarah var firad filmstjärna i Nazitysklands tjänst. Spionrykten fläckade anseendet men andra menar att hon snarare jobbade för de allierade. Svep fjäderboan om halsen och stornjut mixen av glamour och akademisk noggrannhet i Se på mig." Jenny Lindh, M-Magasin "Hon går grundligt till väga och gräver djupt i källorna. Det här är en gedigen och mycket läsvärd biografi som anstår en av våra största stjärnor. Författaren lyckas förmedla något av den oerhörda karisma som gjorde ett sådant intryck på alla som såg eller hörde Zarah Leander när det begav sig ... Arnborg lyckas mer än väl i skildringen av en fascinerande personlighet, komplex och motsägelsefull." Johan Fingal, Falköpings Tidning "Nu har journalisten Beata Arnborg skrivit en biografi över Zarah Leander och gått mycket ambitiöst tillväga med intervjuer och arkivarbete i tre år. Resultatet är en fylligare bild av hennes liv med mängder av anekdoter om Zarahs slagfärdighet och också ambitiösare försök att förklara varför hon kunde trollbinda en världspublik med sin fantastiska altröst och magi." Jan G Andersson, Östra Småland "Divan som Sverige hatade - för att hon var som Sverige ... Zarah - den stenhårda förhandlaren som söp karlarna under bordet. Detta slagfärdiga, drastiska geni, så sensuell, så kraftfull och annorlunda. Man kan ha sämre förebilder - än att gå sina egna vägar och våga vara queer innan regnbågen ens ro Alving och Kerstin Thorvall.uppfunnits. Tänk om det faktiskt var hon som låg på kudden intill Ulla Billquist?" Lotta Lundberg i krönika i Svenska Dagbladet |

A summer of terror has begun . . .

Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses, or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently re-opens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares... but it turns out they're real, and Saeris has landed herself in the middle of a centuries-long conflict that might just get her killed. The first of her kind to tread the frozen mountains of Yvelia in over a thousand years, Saeris mistakenly binds herself to Kingfisher, a handsome Fae warrior, who has secrets and nefarious agendas of his own. He will use her Alchemist's magic to protect his people, no matter what it costs him . . . or her. Death has a name. It is Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate. His past is murky. His attitude stinks. And he's the only way Saeris is going to make it home. Be careful of the deals you make, dear child. The devil is in the details . . . N.B.

There's only one problem: now that he has her . . . he can't bring himself to let her go. *** Elegant. Ambitious. Well-mannered. Vivian Lau is the perfect daughter and her family's ticket into the highest echelons of high society. Marrying a blue-blooded Russo means opening doors that would otherwise remain closed to her new-money family. While the rude, elusive Dante isn't her idea of a dream partner, she agrees to their arranged marriage out of duty. Craving his touch was never part of the plan. Neither was the worst thing she could possibly do: fall in love with her future husband. King of Wrath is a steamy arranged marriage billionaire romance. It includes explicit content and profanity. Recommended for mature readers only. *** Why fans love Ana Huang ⭐ ⭐ ⭐! ' King of Greed ?

27. Something like Lust - Piper Rayne
|

Do it. Don’t do it.   Never in my life did I think I’d wager in my head whether to sleep with Chicago Grizzlies wide receiver, Damon Siska.    He’s the perfect package—hot body, killer smile, and flirts like he earned a doctorate in it. But anyone who reads gossip blogs knows he is looking for one amazing night and nothing more.   I’m not the usual type of woman he beds. I’m a middle school teacher who cherishes her quiet nights in, drinking wine, and watching romantic comedies, dreaming I’m the heroine. I’m not embarrassed to admit—I want the fairy tale.   But Damon caught me at a weak moment. Fresh off a break-up and feeling lousy about myself, I gave into temptation and left the next morning like every other woman he’d slept with.   Except I walked away with more than just the memories when three weeks later the little white stick glowed with two pink lines. |

29. The Lean Startup - Eric Ries
|
|||
Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched. Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business. The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on “validated learning,” rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute. Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs—in companies of all sizes—a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it’s too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever. |

31. Alchemy - Rory Sutherland
|
|||
‘ A breakthrough book. Wonderfully applicable to everything in life, and funny as hell .’ Nassim Nicholas Taleb Why is Red Bull so popular – even though everyone hates the taste? Why do countdown boards on platforms take away the pain of train delays? And why do we prefer stripy toothpaste? Discover the alchemy behind original thinking, as TED Talk superstar and Ogilvy advertising legend Rory Sutherland reveals why abandoning logic and casting aside rationality is the best way to solve any problem. In his first book he blends cutting-edge behavioural science, jaw-dropping stories and a touch of branding magic on his mission to turn us all into idea alchemists. He shows how economists, businesses and governments have got it all wrong: we are not rational creatures who make logical decisions based on evidence. Instead, the big problems we face every day, whether as an individual or in society, could very well be solved by thinking less logically. To be brilliant, you have to be irrational. |

36. Something like Hate - Piper Rayne
|

I love him. I loathe him.   It’s like plucking daisy petals in my head, but he’ll never know.   When Miles Cavanaugh, the best safety in the league, was traded to the Chicago Grizzlies football team last year, I could finally breathe. Temptation was miles away.   How naïve to think it would end there because when the opportunity to write for a national magazine based in Chicago lands in my lap months later, I can’t turn it down. Sure, it’s a big city, but the sexual energy feels like a beacon between us the minute my plane lands.    To make matters worse, I end up having to take over the job of reporting exclusively on the Chicago Grizzlies. Which means traveling with the team, interviewing players, and pretty much having an all-access pass to their lives during the season.    Miles and I put up a great front, quickly hating on one another, but we both know it’s a lie. We also know the rules are simple. For me, don’t sleep with the subject of your articles. For him, don’t sleep with the journalist who can make or break your career.   I thought straight-laced Miles Cavanaugh followed all the rules… oh how wrong I was. |

Dette var akkurat det Carl og Helene trengte. En lang ferie, for å finne tilbake til hverandre. De har funnet drømmehuset i California, og byttet bolig med et par som skal tilbringe sommeren i villaen deres i Stockholms skjærgård. Men så snart de ankommer Santa Cruz er det noe som kjennes feil. Så huset virkelig slik ut på bildene? Og hva driver egentlig det andre paret med i deres hjem? Flaks at Carl har installert overvåkningskameraer i alle husets værelser. Byttet er en psykologisk thriller om hvordan drømmene og fantasiene våre kan vendes mot oss, slik at vi til slutt ikke engang tør å tro på oss selv. Om hvordan løfter er til for å brytes. Og om hvordan de vakreste fasader lett kan rakne i møte med lidenskapens krefter. «Plottet er elegant og svært godt fortalt. Ubehagelige små detaljer som først virker uforståelig løsrevet fra hverandre, forandrer gradvis bildet av hva som skjer». Lotta Olsson, Dagens Nyheter «En fascinerende, godt sammenskrudd thriller som holdt meg våken til midnatt. Slutten er fantastisk, for å si det mildt». Ingalill Mosander, Aftonbladet |

I want to. I can’t.   I’ve been friends with Cooper Rice from the moment we met. He was just as famous a decade ago on our college campus as he is now being the star quarterback for the Chicago Grizzlies.   But he’s not only talented on the field, he’s also the gorgeous football star women fawn over, posing in underwear and razor ads.   Here’s a secret those women don’t know—Cooper Rice isn’t a playboy. He’s the kind of man who wants to settle down with a family. He’s content ordering pizza and massaging my feet after my long shift as an emergency room doctor. He listens to me as if he’s as invested as I am in my patients. He has never let me down.   This is exactly why I refuse to live without Cooper in my life. Eight years ago, I made him promise me that we’d never cross that line. And just like I knew Cooper would, he’s held to that promise.   Despite our best efforts, our relationship is evolving, shifting into new territory and I find myself unsure if I want Cooper to keep that promise. Ignoring the obvious could tear us apart, but so could giving in, meaning there’s a chance I’ll lose Cooper forever no matter what decision I make.  |

But when the team's General Manager refers to me as an unapproachable lone wolf with no work-life balance, I can't think of a better way to convince him otherwise than pretending to date my outgoing roommate. The only problem? Faking it feels far too natural. INDY I never imagined I'd be living with my best friend's brother, NBA superstar Ryan Shay. Even more unbelievable? He needs me to act as his loving girlfriend who's suddenly changed him into a friendly and approachable guy. Because, well . . . he's not. He's controlling of his space and untrusting of others. But blurred lines make it almost impossible to separate real from fake. And falling for my roommate was never part of the deal. But soon I find myself questioning if sharing a roof with my best friend's brother was the right move after all . . . |

59. Mood Machine - Liz Pelly
|
|||
An unsparing investigation into Spotify’s origins and influence on music, weaving unprecedented reporting with incisive cultural criticism, illuminating how streaming is reshaping music for listeners and artists alike. Drawing on over one hundred interviews with industry insiders, former Spotify employees, and musicians, Mood Machine takes us to the inner workings of today’s highly consolidated record business, showing what has changed as music has become increasingly playlisted, personalized, and autoplayed. Building on her years of wide-ranging reporting on streaming, music journalist Liz Pelly details the consequences of the Spotify model by examining both sides of what the company calls its two-sided marketplace: the listeners who pay with their dollars and data, and the musicians who provide the material powering it all. The music business is notoriously opaque, but here Pelly lifts the veil on major stories like streaming services filling popular playlists with low-cost stock music and the rise of new payola-like practices. For all of the inequities exacerbated by streaming, Pelly also finds hope in chronicling the artist-led fight for better models, pointing toward what must be done collectively to revalue music and create sustainable systems. A timely exploration of a company that has become synonymous with music, Mood Machine will change the way you think about and listen to music. |

As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships—but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor—and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs. Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope. |

79. Spetsnaz - Tor Bukkvoll
|
|||
In January 1951, Lieutenant Evgeniy Borisov was sent to the headquarters of the Soviet 5th Army in Spassk-Dalnii, a small city in the Russian Far East. Borisov was there on a secret mission. Together with his superior, Major Rusinov, his job was to establish the 91st Special Forces Company. The 91st was to be one of forty-six similar units spread out across the Soviet Union. The new forces were called “spetsnaz”—short for spetsnialnoe naznachenie , which translates to “special purpose.” In Spetsnaz , Tor Bukkvoll presents the first in-depth history of the Soviet, and, later, Russian special operations forces from their establishment until today. He focuses on three broad topics: Soviet and later Russian thinking on the use of special operations forces; the actual process of constructing these forces and how this was facilitated or hampered by other agencies of the Soviet and Russian states; and the use of these forces in combat. Bukkvoll uses a variety of sources, but the most important are the recollections of former spetsnaz soldiers and officers themselves, which allow Bukkvoll to present the history of these forces as the men of spetsnaz see and have seen it. Bukkvoll also draws upon observations and judgments from other parts of the Soviet and Russian militaries, from a number of KGB sources, and from independent Russian experts and journalists. Spetsnaz is essential reading for anyone interested in special operations forces or Russian military history. |
80. Beyond Anxiety - Martha Beck
|
|||
From bestselling author Martha Beck, a new path to overcoming anxiety by awakening the creativity within We live in an epidemic of anxiety. Most of us assume that the key to overcoming it is to think our way out. And for a while it works. But there is always something that sends us back into the anxious spiral we’ve been trying to climb out of. In Beyond Anxiety , Dr. Martha Beck explains why anxiety is skyrocketing around you, and likely within you. She also tells you how to not only reduce your anxiety but use it to propel you into a life filled with peace, meaning, and joy. Using a combination of the latest neuroscience as well as her background in sociology and coaching, Beck explains how our brains tend to get stuck in an “anxiety spiral,” a feedback system that can increase anxiety indefinitely. To climb out, we must engage different parts of our nervous system—the parts involved in creativity. Beck provides instructions for engaging the “creativity spiral,” in a process that not only shuts down anxiety but leads to innovative problem solving, a sense of meaning and purpose, and joyful, intimate connection with others—and with the world. The opposite of anxiety, it turns out, is a wonderful new way of life—one that can calm and inspire us as individuals and help us become a source of healing for everything around us. |

THE MILLION COPY INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER 'Sun Tzu better watch his back' New York Magazine 'If power is your ultimate goal, this is the book you need' The Times ' At last, the book to help you scheme your way into the upper echelons of power' Daily Express Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this piercing work distils three thousand years of the history of power into forty-eight well-explicated laws. As attention-grabbing in its design as it is in its content, this bold volume outlines the laws of power in their unvarnished essence, synthesizing the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun-tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, and other great thinkers. Some laws require prudence ("Law 1: Never Outshine the Master"), some stealth ("Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions"), and some the total absence of mercy ("Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally"), but like it or not, all have applications in real-life situations. Illustrated through the tactics of Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissenger, P T Barnum, and other famous figures who have wielded - or been victimised by - power, these laws will fascinate any reader interested in gaining, observing or defending against ultimate control. |

'Make this book a morning ritual.' Matthew McConaughey 'A parenting bible that informs behaviour and guides decision making. I love it. I use it daily.' Jake Humphrey 'A simple way to ground us, to force a reflection on the choices we're making, and the ones we want to make. And it's not just for dads.' Emily Oster, author of Cribsheet What does it mean to be a great father? And how do you become one? Parenting is a role filled with meaning and purpose, but every dad needs guidance: because fatherhood is not a one-off, it is something you do every day. Instead of a parenting book you read once as a sleep-deprived new parent, The Daily Dad provides 366 accessible meditations on fatherhood, one for each day of the year. Drawing quotes from history, literature and psychology, bestselling author Ryan Holiday - a father of two himself - has crafted a daily practice that will help dads old and new to find inspiration and advice. Each entry offers a memorable lesson on being the role model your child needs, rooted in timeless principles. From Socrates to Martin Luther King Jr., ancient philosophy to contemporary figures, The Daily Dad collates wisdom from around the world to help every dad face the day-to-day challenges in the lifelong job of parenting, and ultimately become the best father they can be. |

Hun har rømt med sine to små døtre til et sommerhus i Vestfold. Hun blir forfulgt, trakassert og truet på livet av sin ektemann, et kjent og aktet ansikt fra mediene.  Politiet forholder seg passivt, slik de ofte gjør i denne type saker. Svend Foyn påtar seg å hjelpe Kaja Bye med å få ordnet skilsmisse, men blir raskt viklet inn i et spill der han stilles ovenfor et drepende dilemma.  En nødvendig død er en frittstående fortelling og den femte boken i serien om Svend Foyn fra Rivertonprisvinner Jan Mehlum. |

En natt plukker advokat Svend Foyn opp fire unge haikere på E-18. Dagen etter er en cd-boks borte fra bilen. Ett år senere blir han kontaktet av moren til en av haikerne. Hun har funnet Foyns cd-boks, men datteren hennes, Sara, snart tjue, er forsvunnet. En etter en blir haikerne rammet av tragedier. Snart befinner Foyn seg midt i et dødelig drama med spor som fører i mange retninger. Men hver gang en forklaring synes nær, blir de som vet noe plutselig tause – noen av dem for alltid.  Den siste dansen er en intens krim fra narkotikamiljøet: Om de som går til grunne i avhengighet og kriminalitet – og om nære slektninger som står hjelpeløse og ser på.

Han vekkes av en telefon fra sjefen for Voldsavsnittet. En myrdet kvinne med en avklippet pekefinger er funnet. Harry Hole har fått sitt siste oppdrag.

93. Rus og Rolex - Bjørn Olav Jahr
|
|||
Den vellykkede forretningsmannen Olaf Olsvik red høyt på 1980-årenes jappebølge. Han drev stort innenfor tekstilindustrien, men utviklet etter hvert et ekstremt misbruk av alkohol, piller og kokain. Den kostbare og ekstravagante livsstilen lot seg vanskelig kombinere med familieliv og mer eller mindre lovlydig forretningsdrift. Etterhvert forlot han da også begge deler til fordel for enhver lyssky virksomhet som kunne skaffe ham penger til rusmidler.  I denne usedvanlig selvutleverende beretningen om en narkoman og kriminell forretningsmann avdekkes sider ved norsk virkelighet som vi aldri tidligere har fått innblikk i. Boken gir et rått og usminket bilde av hverdagen til en norsk næringslivsnarkoman, en mann med en uhyggelig livshistorie, men også en vilje til å legge absolutt alle kort på bordet.  Rus og Rolex er ført i pennen av Bjørn Olav Jahr, en journalist, forfatter og forlagsredaktør med god innsikt i den næringslivsverdenen han beskriver.  BJØRN OLAV JAHR (født 1969) er utdannet samfunnsøkonom fra Universitetet i Oslo, og har lang fartstid som journalist i bl.a. Kapital, Dagbladet og Memo. I 2002 vant han SKUP-prisen, norsk presses pris for fremragende undersøkende journalistikk, for opprullingen av Finance Credit-saken.  OLAF OLSVIK (født 1955) vokste opp på Sunndalsøra og i Sandefjord med mor, far og to yngre søstre. Han tok handelsskole og startet tidlig sitt eget selskap innen tekstilbransjen. Han produserte og importerte klær fra Østen og drev det stort i bransjen, men nedturen kom raskt etter en skilsmisse i 1987. I dag driver han Mestringshuset, et behandlingssenter for rusavhengige, sammen med sin kone Margit. Olsvik er også en ettertraktet rådgiver og foredragsholder. |
