Now a major Netflix film starring Alicia Vikander and Riley Keough, a haunting psychological thriller set in Tokyo probing deep into the mind of a murder suspect The grisly headline leaves nothing to the imagination: "Woman's torso recovered from Tokyo Bay. Believed to be missing British bartender Lily Bridges." The only suspect is Lucy Fly. Her friend is dead, her lover has disappeared, and as far as anyone is concerned, she's as good as guilty. Trapped in the interrogation room, Lucy begins to unravel two stories. One, for the police, is a spare outline, offering more questions than answers. The other--the real one, if you believe her--is a gripping dive into an obsessive mind, revealing the checkered past that brought her to Japan, her complicated friendship with Lily, and a tempestuous affair with a missing Japanese photographer named Teiji. As she excavates the dangerous secrets--both past and present--that haunt her waking mind, Lucy relates an unsettling life story that spans bustling Tokyo, the British countryside, and remote Japanese islands, each step taking us closer to the chilling truth about Lily's death. An all-consuming crime story like no other, Susanna Jones's mesmerizing debut novel is a neo-noir thriller as shocking as it is exquisitely composed. "Novels of psychological suspense hang on the delicacy of the writer's touch--that feathery brushstroke that darkens a mood, heightens an action and brings a revealing word to a character's lips--and Susanna Jones has the touch."--Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times

Although people have been altering earth’s landscapes to some extent for tens of thousands of years, humankind today is causing massive changes to the planet. Such widespread environmental change is accompanied by accelerating rates of species extinction. In this book, noted ecologist H. H. Shugart presents important ecological concepts through entertaining animal parables. He tells the stories of particular birds and mammals—the packrat, ivory-billed woodpecker, penguin, dingo, European rabbit, and others—and what their fates reveal about the interactions between environmental change and the extinctions or explosions of species populations. Change is the root of many planetary problems, but it is also an intrinsic feature of our living planet. Shugart explores past environmental change, discusses the non-existence of a “balance of Nature,” and documents how human alterations have affected plants, soils, and animals. He looks with hope toward a future in which thoughtful people learn—and use—ecological science to protect the landscapes upon which terrestrial creatures depend.

FARAN I ATT INTE TRO PÅ SIG SJÄLV Lucy har flytt till Tokyo för att undkomma det förflutna. För att inte bli upptäckt lever hon ett tillbakadraget liv, med få vänner, och en älskare som väger upp bristen på all annan passion. Sedan träffar hon Lily som har kopplingar till hennes tidigare liv. Vänskapen blir intensiv, men kort därpå mördas Lily och Lucy är den enda som är misstänkt. I jakten på att rentvå sig själv fångas Lucy i minnets förrädiska labyrinter. Det blir en suggestiv katt- och råtta lek där läsaren, liksom Lucy, hålls på sträckbänken ifråga om hennes skuld – eller oskuld. EARHTQUAKE BIRD har utmärkts med fyra litterära priser. Filmen med ALICIA VIKANDER som bygger på romanen av SUSANNA JONES är adapterad och regisserad av WASH WESTMORELAND. SUSANNA JONES är en brittisk författare med fem kritikerrosade romaner bakom sig. Efter dramastudier vid Londons universitet bodde och arbetade hon i Japan i flera år. För Earthquake bird har hon förärats en John Creasy Award, en Betty Trask Award, ett Mail on Sunday Prize och en CWA New Blood Dagger. Boken är översatt till mer än 20 språk.
