Lincoln Tremayne, heir to a viscountcy and manager of his father’s Dorset estate, has one burning ambition—to be selected to ride on the British Olympic Three- Day Eventing Team. But his dream is about to be put on hold. Arriving at the stables late one night, Lincoln walks into a crisis. Thieves have viciously attacked the stable owner’s daughter, leaving her unconscious. As she lies in a coma, what appears to be freak chance sets Lincoln on the trail of the attackers. Disregarding the advice of the police and the increasingly unpleasant warnings from those involved, he juggles sleuthing with a demanding job and competitive riding career. But as the violence escalates, it becomes chillingly clear that someone is trying to kill him for reasons of their own—and the race is on to

On the outskirts of Paris, two men have been found with their throats cut. It is assumed that this is a drug-related incident of the kind so often uncovered in that area of town. But Adamsberg is convinced that there is more to it. Anxious to keep control of the case, he must call in a favor from the pathologist Ariane Lagarde, someone he had come up against twenty-three years previously.

There is something disquieting about him, not least when it emerges that he is from a neighboring village in the

(Well, they all do, obviously. It was ages ago)

Slowness was Milan Kundera's first novel written in French. Disconcerted and enchanted, the reader follows him through a midsummer's night in which two tales of seduction, separated in time by more than two hundred years, interweave and oscillate between the sublime and ridiculous. As Kundera's readers would expect, Slowness is at the same time a formidable display of existential analysis. Slowness (and rapidity), discretion (and exhibitionism) are the principal concepts, and those which are to the reader like vital keys for understanding life in our contemporary world.
