Новинки Энтони Маккартена

Hat man als Einzelner überhaupt eine Chance gegen das System? Eine junge Bibliothekarin aus Boston ist entschlossen, es zu versuchen – ihr bleibt keine Wahl. Und so greift sie zu, als sich die Einladung zu einem ungewöhnlichen Kräftemessen bietet: dem Betatest von FUSION, einem Projekt der US-Geheimdienste und des Social-Media-Moguls Cy Baxter. Wem es gelingt, 30 Tage unauffindbar zu bleiben, dem winken 3 Millionen Dollar. Doch Kaitlyn geht es um etwas anderes.

Shortlisted for the Wilbur Smith Adventure Book Prize, Going Zero is a high-concept thriller from Oscar-nominated screenwriter Anthony McCarten. Perfect for fans of I Am Pilgrim and The Circle.

TWO HOURS TO VANISH

Ten people are selected to Beta test a ground-breaking piece of spyware. Pioneered by tech-wunderkind Cy Baxter, FUSION can track anyone on earth.

ONE CHANCE TO WIN

Given two hours to 'Go Zero' – disappear off-grid – each Zero has thirty days to elude the sophisticated Capture Teams sent to find them. Anyone that beats FUSION will receive $3 million. If Cy's system proves itself, he wins a $90 billion contract with the CIA to revolutionize surveillance forever.

ZERO ALTERNATIVES TO LOSING

For Zero 10, Kaitlyn Day, the stakes are higher than money, and far more personal than Cy could have imagined. Kaitlyn needs to win to get what she wants, and Cy will stop at nothing to realize his ambitions. When the game’s timer hits zero, there will only be one winner. . .

TWO HOURS TO VANISH.

ONE CHANCE TO ESCAPE.

ZERO ALTERNATIVES.

Ten Americans have been carefully selected to Beta test a ground-breaking piece of spyware. FUSION can track anyone on earth. But does it work?

For one contestant, an unassuming Boston librarian named Kaitlyn Day, the stakes are far higher than money, and her reasons for entering the test more personal than anyone imagines. When the timer hits zero, there will only be one winner…

From four-time Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Anthony McCarten comes a breakneck, wickedly entertaining thriller for our times, a twisty, action-packed novel reminiscent of the best Michael Crichton technothrillers.

En svimlende, uforskammet underholdende samtidsthriller - full av twister og tettpakket med action. Ti amerikanske borgere er utvalgt til å delta i BETA-testen for «Fusion», et høyteknologisk initiativ i den nasjonale sikkerhetens navn. De som står bak er CIA og Cy Baxter - teknologisk vidunderbarn, multimilliardær og adm.dir. for landets største sosiale medium, WorldShare. På et gitt tidspunkt vil hver av de ti deltakerne få to timer på seg til å gå helt under radaren. Utfordringen de neste 30 dagene er å ikke bli funnet av sikkerhetseksperter som vil ta i bruk alt av tilgjengelig overvåkingsteknologi. For Baxter dreier det seg om en lukrativ kontrakt med myndighetene. For deltakerne innebærer en eventuell seier en premie på tre millioner dollar. En av deltakerne er en upretensiøs bibliotekar fra Boston som alle forventer vil være den første som blir funnet. Kaitlyn Day er imidlertid langt mer talentfull enn hva sikkerhetsekspertene hadde trodd. Og selve grunnen til at hun deltar, er også en annen enn hva noen hadde kunnet forutse. «Spenstig og skummel ... Skremmende realistisk.» [Terningkast 5] Cathrine Krøger, Dagbladet

KAKS TUNDI, ET KADUDA

Kümme ameeriklast on läbinud tiheda sõela, et osaleda uue murrangulise nuhkvara katsetuses. Fusioni keskus peaks leidma ükskõik kelle ükskõik millisest ilmanurgast. Aga kas leiab?

ÜKS VÕIMALUS PÕGENEDA

Määratud ajal saavad kõik kümme osalejat kaks tundi, et jäljetult

kaduda: mobiiltelefonid välja lülitada, katkestada sidemed sõprade ja sugulastega ning ükskõik missugusel viisil haihtuda.

NULL VÕIMALUST VALIDA

Ühe võistleja, silmatorkamatu raamatukoguhoidja Kaitlyn Day jaoks on kaalul rohkem kui raha ning tema põhjused katses osalemiseks isiklikumad, kui keegi oskab arvata. Kui aeg saab otsa, võidab vaid üks …

Nelinkertaisen Oscar-ehdokkaan koukuttava trilleri katoamisen mahdottomuudesta.

Meitä seurataan. Meistä tiedetään kaikki. Kukaan ei ole teknologian saavuttamattomissa. Katoaminen on mahdotonta. Vai onko?

Kymmenen osallistujaa valitaan kokeeseen, missä jokaisella on kaksi tuntia aikaa nollata itsensä – hävittää kaikki tieto itsestään, kadota maan päältä, ja pakoilla 30 päivän ajan sieppaustiimejä. Ne, joita ei saada kiinni, palkitaan kolmella miljoonalla dollarilla. Kaiken takana on arvoituksellinen miljardööri ja tietotekniikkanero Cy Baxter ja hänen sopimuksensa hallituksen kanssa, mikä suo hänelle pääsyn CIA:n, FBI:n ja NSA:n tiedustelutietoihin ja resursseihin. Baxterin visiona on luoda uusi, oikeudenmukainen aikakausi, mutta mikä hänen perimmäinen tavoitteensa oikein on?

A Fusion, empresa liderada pelo génio da tecnologia Cy Baxter, alega ter desenvolvido um spyware revolucionário, capaz de localizar qualquer pessoa na Terra, e propõe-se demonstrá-lo sem margem para dúvidas.
Dez pessoas, criteriosamente selecionadas, serão os beta testers de GOING ZERO. Cada participante terá duas horas para desaparecer, devendo permanecer invisível durante 30 dias. Quem o conseguir, receberá um avultado prémio – 3 milhões de dólares. Se o sistema de Cy Baxter for bem-sucedido, a Fusion ganha um contrato multimilionário com a CIA, que mudará a vigilância dos cidadãos para sempre.
Para a bibliotecária Kaitlyn Day, porém, está em jogo muito mais do que o dinheiro do prémio, e a sua motivação é mais pessoal do que se poderia imaginar.
Quando o cronómetro chegar a zero, só haverá um vencedor…

Все еще верите, что ваша частная жизнь – это ваше личное дело? В эпоху Искусственного интеллекта конфиденциальность – полная фикция. Не скрыться никому…
Всего два часа на полное исчезновение…
10 человек были тщательно отобраны для бета-теста беспрецедентно эффективной системы цифровой слежки, созданной IT-гением Саем Бакстером. Эта система на основе искусственного интеллекта способна выследить кого угодно и где угодно на Земле. Отобранные стали Нулями – исчезли, чтобы в течение 30 дней не попасться изощренным алгоритмам Бакстера. Кто не попадется, получит 3 миллиона долларов. Однако не стоит на это рассчитывать – ни у кого из Нулей нет ни единого шанса. Так думает Бакстер.
Но так не думает Кейтлин Дэй, Нуль-10. Для нее ставка в начавшейся игре – вовсе не деньги, а нечто гораздо более важное. Эту чудаковатую библиотекаршу, до сих пор живущую в уютном аналоговом мирке, собирались показательно изловить в два счета. Но внезапно она начинает делать такие хитроумные ходы, что ставит в тупик и цифровое всевидящее око, и обслуживающую его огромную команду экспертов…

Май 1940 года, Великобритания в состоянии войны. Блицкриг привел к тому, что одна за другой западноевропейские страны попадают под влияние нацизма. Уинстон Черчилль всего несколько дней назад стал премьер-министром, против него настроены и король, и партия, но только в его руках сейчас возможность изменить ход событий и дать народу новую надежду.

Энтони МакКартен расскажет все о периоде между неожиданным назначением на пост премьер-министра (10 мая 1940 года) и 4 июня 1940 года, когда произошло падение Франции, почти полная эвакуация разбитой британской армии из Дюнкерка. И тогда же Уинстон Черчилль произнес одну из своих самых известных речей. В этой книге сплелись воедино яркие образы и тщательные документальные исследования.

"Я хотел изучить методы работы, лидерские качества, психологическое и ментальное состояние одного человека в эти критические дни, — пишет МакКартен. — Человека, который всей своей поэтической душой верил, что слова важны, что они обладают силой и способны изменить мир".

On 28 February 2013, a 600-year-old tradition was shattered: the conservative Pope Benedict XVI made a startling announcement. He would resign. Reeling from the news, the College of Cardinals rushed to Rome to congregate in the Sistine Chapel to pick his successor. Their unlikely choice? Francis, the first non-European pope in 1,200 years, a one time tango club bouncer, a passionate football fan, a man with the common touch.

From the prize-winning screenwriter of The Theory of Everything and Darkest Hour, The Pope is a fascinating, revealing and often funny tale of two very different men whose destinies converge with each other - they both live in the Vatican - and the wider world.

How did these two men become two of the most powerful people on Earth?
What's it like to be the Pope?
What does the future hold for the Catholic Church and its 1 billion followers?

The Pope is a dual biography that masterfully combines these two popes' lives into one gripping narrative. From Benedict and Francis' experiences of war in their homelands - when they were still Joseph and Jorge - and the sexual abuse scandal that continues to rock the Church to its foundations, to the intrigue and the occasional comedy of life in the Vatican, The Pope glitters with the darker and the lighter details of life inside one of the world's most opaque but significant institutions.

It is May 1940. Western countries are falling into Nazi hands. Britain must prepare to be invaded any day. The future of the world lies on the shoulders of one man. This is the story of how British Prime Minister Winston Churchill changed history over twenty-five difficult days during World War II.
