Los náufragos del Wager es un true crime y una absorbente historia de supervivencia, fruto de una exhaustiva investigación periodística pero que se percibe como una novela de Conrad. Grann nos sobrecoge con su capacidad para contar una historia que tuvo lugar hace más de doscientos años: recupera el eterno debate entre la maldad y la bondad en la naturaleza humana y los pone sobre la mesa de nuestro convulso presente.

This new edition provides extensive commentary on the literary figures, such as Baudelaire, Swinburne, J.K. Huysmans, Mallarmé, Arthur Symons and Théophile Gautier, who formed Wilde's literary circle and, in some senses, underpinned his overconfidence in the shield of Art to protect him from the sword of social morality. Returning to this contemporary account of such an infamous trial allows the modern listener a broader historical perspective. Grolleau’s words are, in fact, part of the history surrounding the immediate literary and social aftermath of Wilde’s death.

The female private detective has been a staple of popular culture for over 150 years. But what about the real-life women behind these fictional tales? Dismissed as 'Mrs Sherlock Holmes' or amateurish Miss Marples, mocked as private dicks or honey trappers, they have been investigating crime since the mid-nineteenth century - everything from theft and fraud to romance scams and murder. In Private Inquiries, Caitlin Davies traces the history of the UK's female investigators.

Nel 1850, appena otto anni dopo la creazione del Detective Branch di Londra, Charles Dickens dedica vari articoli al tema dell'indagine poliziesca, pubblicandoli sulle riviste Householde Words e All the Year Round (di cui è direttore). Le tecniche di investigazione dell'epoca, ancora relativamente nuove, rivelano in "Giù con la marea" una raffinatezza che dimostra l'estrema modernità della Scotland Yard del tempo.
