    <![CDATA[Identical twins are fair game for a thriller writer, and in <em>The  Switch</em>, queen of suspense Sandra Brown (<em>The Alibi</em>, <em>Standoff</em>, <em>Fat Tuesday</em>) makes the most of  an intricate setup involving Gillian and Melina Lloyd, a pair of thirtysomething  Dallas beauties. When Gillian hears her biological clock ticking, she  puts herself in the hands of the world-famous Waters Clinic and is artificially  inseminated (as described in a somewhat plodding first chapter that omits no  detail of the procedure). The action picks up when Gillian switches places with  her twin, a media escort, and chauffeurs sexy astronaut Chief Hart around town.  It turns out to be a fatal attraction, and suspicion falls on Chief when  Gillian's mutilated body is found the next day. <p>  The dead woman's smarmy and enigmatic boyfriend, Jem Hennings, has a vested  interest in focusing police efforts on Hart, but Melina has her own reasons for  thinking him wrong. Jem's connection with a charismatic preacher known as  Brother Gabriel is at the heart of this mildly creepy mystery, in which the  plucky Melina tracks Brother Gabriel to his lair and uncovers his diabolical  plot while simultaneously revealing her own dark secret. The ending is  telegraphed well in advance, but that won't deter Brown's many fans from  relishing the details, including some sex scenes that are spicier than most of  the florid prose that usually turns up in romantic thrillers of this sort. But  that may be why the author inevitably rockets to the top of the bestseller  list, where <em>The Switch</em> is destined to land. <em>--Jane Adams</em></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[ &quot;Das einzig Aufregende, was wirklich einen Kommentar wert war, war die Tatsache, wenn es einmal nicht regnete.&quot; Chief Inspector Wexford kann sich nicht daran erinnern, in diesem Teil von Sussex jemals von einer derartigen Flut gehört zu haben. Die Zeitungen sprechen von einer Jahrhundertkatastrophe, und die Polizei hat alle Hände voll zu tun -- allmählich bricht Panik aus und es kommt zu ersten Plünderungen. Auch in Wexfords Garten steigt dass Wasser stetig und bedrohlich an.<p>  In diesem schon etwas gereizten Klima trifft die Meldung ein, dass zwei Kinder mit ihrer Babysitterin verschwunden sind. Die 13-jährige Sophie und der 15-jährige Giles hatten sich unter Aufsicht von Joanny Troy befunden, während die Eltern sich einen Urlaub gönnten. Jetzt befürchtet die Mutter, die Kinder könnten ein Opfer der Fluten geworden sein. Wexford ist skeptisch: Ganz so jung waren die beiden &quot;Kleinen&quot; nun auch wieder nicht, und schwimmen sollen sie ebenfalls können. Reifenabdrücke vor einer abgelegenen Wochenendvilla reicher Londoner führen Wexford auf eine erste Spur. Und schließlich stellt sich heraus, dass der vermisste Giles in Verbindung mit einer gehemnisvollen Glaubensgemeinschaft stand.<p>  Mit jedem weiteren Roman wird deutlicher, was Leser der unter Rendells Pseudonym Barbara Vine erschienenen Romane schon lange wissen: Ihm Mittelpunkt ihrer Bücher stehen nicht so sehr die Krimihandlung, die Ermittlungen und die schlussendliche Auflösung eines Falls, sondern die Schilderung gesellschaftlicher Verhältnisse. Auch am Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts bestimmt das britische Klassensystem noch immer das Leben der Menschen. Berufsaussichten und Besitzverhältnisse scheinen wichtiger als Hilfsbereitschaft und die Fähigkeit, anders denkende Nachbarn zu akzeptieren. Auch Wexford selbst -- und das ist ein ausgesprochen gelungener Kniff -- sieht sich privat mit seinen Vorurteilen konfrontiert. Allzu beschäftigt mit der Flutkatastrophe und der steigenden Kriminalität, bringt er seiner Tochter nicht die nötige Aufmerksamkeit entgegen -- und tritt prompt ins Fettnäpfchen.<p>  Ein weiteres Highlight von dieser Autorin also, die nicht umsonst als &quot;Königin der Kriminalliteratur&quot; gefeiert wird und durch das verlässlich hohe Niveau ihrer Bücher zu überzeugen weiß. Auch wenn wir Festlandbewohner uns vielleicht etwas darüber wundern, warum in <em>Dunkle Wasser</em> so viel Aufhebens um Regen gemacht wird. Schließlich spielt der Roman doch in England, oder? <em>--Felix Darwin</em></p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[From the foremost contemporary chronicler of London&#8217;s history, a suspenseful novel that ingeniously draws on Chaucer&#8217;s <strong>The Canterbury Tales</strong><em> </em>to recreate the city&#8217;s 14th century religious and political intrigues.<br/>   <br/>   London, 1399.  Sister Clarice, a nun born below Clerkenwell convent, is predicting the death of King Richard II and the demise of the Church.  Her visions can be dismissed as madness, until she accurately foretells a series of terrorist explosions.  What is the role of the apocalyptic Predestined Men?  And the clandestine Dominus?  And what powers, ultimately, will prevail?<br/><br/>In Peter Ackroyd&#8217;s deft and suprising narrative,  The Miller, the Prioress, the Wife of Bath and other characters from <strong>Canterbury Tales</strong> pursue these mysteries through a pungently vivid medieval London.]]>

    <![CDATA[Von seinen weiblichen Opfern nimmt der unheimliche Mörder, der durch Londons Stadtviertel streift, einen besonderen Gegenstand als Souvenir. Weil bei einer Frau eine Bisswunde im Nackenbereich gefunden wird, nennt die Sensationspresse den geheimnisvollen Täter nur „den Rottweiler“ -- und legt damit eine Spur, die in die falsche Richtung weist. Das muss auch Inez erfahren, deren Metier ebenfalls besondere Gegenstände sind: In ihrem Antiquitätenladen stehen ein ausgestopfter Jaguar ebenso wie eine griechische Götterstudie oder ein raffinierter Blumenständer. Hier laufen mit den teils verrückten, teils verliebten, teils steinreichen Kunden die Informationen zu den Morden am schnellsten ein -- die dritte junge Frau hat der „Rottweiler“ nun schon erdrosselt. Und dann berührt sich Inez’ Leben mit dem Treiben des Mörders auf eine Art und Weise, die ihr nicht geheuer sein kann.<p>  <em>Der Duft des Bösen</em> beginnt etwas langatmig, aber dann gelingt der 1930 in South Woodford (London) geborene Bestsellerautorin Ruth Rendell alias Barbara Vine, wofür ihre inzwischen weit über 30 Erfolgs-Romane wie <em>Dunkle Wasser</em>, <em>Schweiß der Angst</em>, <em>Durch Gewalt und List</em> und <em>Urteil in Stein</em> berühmt geworden sind: Hochspannung pur. Insgesamt drei Mal erhielt sie den renommierten Edgar-Allen-Poe-Preis, Englands Königin Elisabeth II. erhob sie in den Adelsstand -- kein Wunder: Immerhin adeln ihre Bücher umgekehrt das Krimi-Genre. <em>Der Duft des Bösen</em> also ist ein Rendell-Krimi allerersten Güte, der seine Spannung in einer klugen Dramaturgie bis zum überraschenden Ende von Seite zu Seite steigert, sodass man den Duft des Bösen förmlich zu riechen vermeint. Für Rendell-Fans also ein absolutes Muss. Und für Krimi-Freunde, die tiefgründige, psychologisch ausgefeilte Plots zu schätzen wissen, eigentlich auch. <em>--Stefan Kellerer</em></p>]]>
