The Poison Artist After a fleeting encounter with a seductive woman, toxicologist Caleb Maddox becomes obsessed with finding her again. Meanwhile, he begins helping with a serial-murder investigation. Soon the search for the killer entwines with Caleb’s hunt for the woman in “a wicked mix of Poe, The Silence of the Lambs, and Vertigo” (William Landay). The Dark Room Homicide inspector Gavin Cain is called in for a highly sensitive case: the mayor is being blackmailed. A series of photographs show a beautiful woman shackled to a bed. And worse revelations are to come if the mayor doesn’t take his own life first. This “electrifying noir thriller” tracks Cain as he enters a web of deceit and destruction (Booklist, starred review). The Night Market In this “sharp and scary near-future thriller,” Inspector Ross Carver is at a crime scene where a dead man is covered in an unknown substance eating through his skin. Suddenly, he’s hauled into a trailer and shocked unconscious. When he wakes up days later, he’s in his own bed, lying next to his neighbor Mia—a woman he barely knows. And she knows a lot more than she’s letting on (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

Book excerpt: This book deals with the management and valuation of energy storage in electric power grids, highlighting the interest of storage systems in grid applications and developing management methodologies based on artificial intelligence tools. The authors highlight the importance of storing electrical energy, in the context of sustainable development, in "smart grids", and discuss multiple services that storing electrical energy can bring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than any other set of films from the classical era, the Hollywood film noir is known for its lighting: the cast shadows, the blinking street signs, the eyes sparkling in the darkness. Each effect is rich in symbolism, evoking a world of danger and doppelgangers. But what happens if we set aside the symbolism? This book offers a new account of film noir lighting, grounded in a larger theory of Hollywood cinematography as emotionally engaging storytelling. Above all, noir lighting is dynamic, switching from darkness to brightness and back again as characters change, locations shift, and fates unfold. Richly illustrated, Film Noir and the Arts of Lighting features in-depth analyses of eleven classic movies: The Asphalt Jungle, Sorry, Wrong Number, Odds against Tomorrow, The Letter, I Wake Up Screaming, Phantom Lady, Strangers on a Train, Sweet Smell of Success, Gaslight, Secret beyond the Door, and Touch of Evil.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This novel should come not with blurbs but with a hazardous-material warning: There's bone and gristle here, be ready for that taste in your mouth you can't spit out. First words to last, it's strong stuff." —James Sallis, author of Drive The first novel to appear in English by the "subway janitor by night, novelist by day," who began his writing career while an undocumented immigrant in the United States, Like Flies from Afar will demonstrate why K. Ferrari is already an award-winning star of international crime fiction. A hardboiled noir thriller, a whodunit, a black comedy, and a filthy catalog of the excesses of wealth, this is a Jim Thompson novel for the globalized world. Mr. Luis Machi is an unforgettably loathsome and hilarious Argentinian oligarch who made his fortune collaborating with the worst elements of society—parasites, pushers, and secret policemen. He has a cocaine habit, a collection of three hundred ties, ten million dollars in the bank, and a bloody corpse in the trunk of his BMW . . . but as far as the body goes, he's completely innocent. He has no idea who the victim could be, or who among his many, many enemies might be trying to frame him for murder, and he doesn't have much time to find out . . . The profane and uproarious Like Flies from Afar follows Machi through twenty-four hours of his eventful life—one full day in which to solve this mystery, or at least to make sure he isn't the one to take the fall.
