Une semaine de répétitions, un manoir isolé... et des secrets en coulisses. Quand Cora Smith, comédienne de province à l’enthousiasme débordant, est invitée à répéter Dangereuse Séduction dans une demeure normande pleine de charme, elle croit vivre un rêve. Un décor somptueux, des tenues d’époque, un metteur en scène charismatique et — cerise sur le gâteau — des partenaires de jeu célèbres et intimidants. Mais derrière les sourires en coulisses, les rivalités se trament. Lucinda, aussi glaciale que sublime, Ariane, diva sortie d’un autre siècle, Selena, ambitieuse jusqu’au bout des ongles... Sans parler de ces messieurs, tous plus charmants — ou plus dangereux — les uns que les autres. À mesure que les répétitions avancent, les tensions montent, les confidences se murmurent, et les accidents prennent une tournure troublante. Est-ce encore du théâtre, ou déjà un jeu de dupes ? Qui joue un rôle... et qui tire les ficelles ? Un cosy mystery savoureux, où l’élégance des décors n’a d’égal que le venin des répliques. Catherine Gravil est journaliste et romancière. Spécialiste des faits divers et ancienne collaboratrice du journal Détective, elle a côtoyé des figures légendaires du banditisme. Aujourd’hui, elle mêle son œil aiguisé et son amour du suspense dans des enquêtes pleines de charme et de faux-semblants.

En passant chez Nelson nous projette à travers deux siècles d’histoire de la Sierra Leone, symbolisés par les trajectoires d’hommes et de femmes dont les vies se sont nouées autour de la péninsule de Freetown, et sur la plage de Lumley. Le Nelson’s bar en devient un jour la figure centrale, présence et repère moral, aussi une mémoire. À travers le personnage de Nelson résonnent un puissant éclairage géopolitique : comment les sociétés s’abîment, comment elles oublient leur promesse initiale. L’Histoire n’y est jamais décorative, plutôt celle qui demeure dans les corps et les consciences. En passant chez Nelson révèle une œuvre humaniste, sans manichéisme, qui interroge la part d’éthique que nous sommes prêts à défendre quand tout vacille. Seul roman français à évoquer cette partie d’Afrique pour y déceler son message universel, cette œuvre nous marque par la prégnance des personnages qui, eux-mêmes, deviennent une mémoire.France Inter : Cela vaut toutes les leçons de géopolitique, c'est humain, c'est vraiment à lire. Site auteur : www.laurentbonnet.eu Laurent LD Bonnet est navigateur-voyageur, romancier et nouvelliste. Il publie dès 1998 des nouvelles, puis un premier roman remarqué, en 2012, Salone (Prix Senghor). Il poursuit avec Dix secondes (2015) et le dernier Ulysse (2021), formant ainsi les trois premières oeuvres d'une Tétralogie de la quête. La revue Daïmon consacre son numéro 6 (Aux évadés, 2021), à ses textes et nouvelles. L’engagé, un dialogue avec Jack London, paraît en 2022. En passant chez Nelson est le nouveau titre du roman Salone, qui reparaît en 2025 dans une version révisée pour livrer pleinement la portée universelle du propos.

The intense action thriller from million copy bestseller Rob Sinclair, perfect for fans of Mark Dawson.Rule number one for an agent of the secretive JIA is to follow orders, no matter what.But James Ryker has never cared much for rules. He only wants to do what is right.Assigned to join a crew of elite security personnel in Chabon, Africa, Ryker’s mission objective is clouded by politics and obfuscation, and he knows only that to protect British interests in the region, he is to infiltrate the close protection team of the government of Chabon, a country with a dark and violent past. ​Arriving in Chabon’s crumbling capital, Kilpassa, Ryker finds a country on the brink of civil war. A growing civilian rebellion threatens peace, with claims of atrocities committed by both sides, including the frail government run by enigmatic President Benyu - a former military general who took control of the country in a violent coup. ​Drawn into Benyu’s inner circle, it soon becomes clear to Ryker that in Chabon, the lines between good and bad, and right and wrong, are nearly impossible to identify.With a crisis of epic proportions unfolding before his eyes, Ryker knows one thing for sure: with or without the backing of his superiors, he must take drastic action, and quickly, or risk putting millions of innocent lives in danger.Praise for Rob Sinclair:'A cracking thriller with a Reacheresque hero you can't help but root for!' – John Ryder'A real page-turner, impossible to put down' Publishers Weekly'A must-read for fans of Lee Child and Robert Ludlum' Chelle’s Book Reviews'An adrenaline shot right to the heart' The Best Thriller Books'Action-packed, fast-paced, thrilling with many plot twists' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'This book is a wonderful read and is one you won't want to put down' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'To say the book is action-packed is an understatement - it is full of the stuff' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'Lots of action and subterfuge and the characters play off each other' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'Action-packed and incredibly thrilling' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'A real page-turner' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rob Sinclair has an innate ability to draw you in and take you on an amazing ride, the character of agent Carl Logan is so authentic and Sinclair portrays him particularly well. All the characters in this story are well developed, the plot is fast paced, intriguing and totally entertaining. I really can't recommend this book highly enough.‘ – Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‘OMG ,OMG, OMG I was bouncing off the walls when I realised Carl Logan is back with a new identity in a brand new series. After being gutted when the Enemy series ended. Just in case you didn't know I am a massive fan... lol. But Rob Sinclair has pulled out all the punches with this latest story, it is without a doubt his best book yet….. I freaking loved it.’ – Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‘I would think Rob Sinclair might rival some of the greats in his field. His writing is tight, current and gripping. He weaves easily between settings and great characters –there appear to be quite a few. And the pace is compelling. This all leads on to a most excellent ending.’– Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‘Crikey The Red Cobra opens with an action packed scene and it pretty well doesn’t let up for the rest of the novel. Short chapters with cliffhanger endings add a breathless pace so that The Red Cobra is a really exciting read.

I loved it.’– Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‘The Red Cobra is one fast paced, action packed, thrill of a read. It is actually screaming out to be put on the big screen.
