Includes List of Other Books by Caleb Carr; Author Dedication; Afterword by Jon Lellenberg (U.S. agent for the Conan Doyle Estate and co-editor of a number of anthologies of new Sherlock Holmes stories, and the historian of The Baker Street Irregulars) and Acknowledgments. "The Author Who Invented The Historical Thriller Takes On The Most Famous Scientific Detective In History. Caleb Carr's newest tale (commissioned by the estate of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle) begins when Sherlock Holmes reveals to Dr. Watson an encrypted telegram he has received from his brother Mycroft; the famous detective has been summoned to the aid of Queen Victoria in Scotland. Rushed northward on a royal train - and nearly murdered themselves en route - Holmes and Watson are soon joined by Mycroft, and learn of the brutal killings of a renowned architect and his foreman, both of whom had been preparing to renovate a wing of the famous and forbidding Royal Palace of Holyrood, in Edinburgh. Mycroft has enlisted his brother to help solve the murders that may be key elements of a much more elaborate and pernicious plot on the Queen's life. But the circumstances of the two victims' deaths also call to Holmes's mind the terrible murder - in the palace of Holyrood - of "The Italian Secretary," David Rizzio. The only difficulty? Rissio, a music teacher and confidante of Mary, Queen of Scots, was butchered before Mary's very eyes three centuries earlier by supporters of England's Queen Elizabeth (and perhaps with the approval of that uncompromisng ruler herself) in an atttempt to break the spirit of the very independent young Scottish Queen. Holmes proceeds to alarm Watson with the suggestion that the Italian Secretary's vengeful spirit may have taken the lives of the two men as punishment for disturbing the scene of his assassination. Will these two new deaths turn out to be mere coincidence? Have old political rivalries reared their poisonous heads once again? Or has the Italian Secretary indeed exacted his own terrible revenge? Told with his unique feel for historical detail and the architecture of human evil, Caleb Carr's brilliant new offering enriches the Conan Doyle tradition, with a fascinating yet relentlessly-paced tale that extends into a realm unprecedented even for Sherlock Holmes." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Condition: Neu. 597 Seiten : mit 72 farbigen Abbildungen in 3 Tafelteilen und 3 Karten ; 21.7 cm, 910 g NEUBUCH ! + + + Die East India Company: Die schmutzigen Geschäfte einer Welthandelsmacht Die British East India Company war der unrühmliche Vorreiter kolonialistischer Ausbeutung eines ganzen Subkontinents. Indien wurde im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert nicht etwa von einem anderen Staat unterworfen, sondern von einer gewinnorientierten Privatfirma mit Sitz in London. In einem großen historischen Panorama erzählt der mehrfach Bestsellerautor William Dalrymple den beispiellos blutigen Aufstieg der Company zur dominierenden Welthandelsmacht filmreif nach. Dabei berücksichtigt er zum ersten Mal auch die indische Perspektive und macht so diese Ursünde des britischen Kolonialismus in all ihrer Grausamkeit verständlich. Im Oktober 1764 besiegte die East India Company den jungen Mogulkaiser Shah Alam II. auf dem Schlachtfeld und setzte eine eigene Regierung ein, die über den indischen Subkontinent herrschte. Diese wurde von englischen Kaufleuten geführt und trieb mit Hilfe einer eigenen Armee Steuern ein. Von diesem Zeitpunkt an war die Company keine bloße Handelsfirma mehr, sondern wurde zur aggressiven Kolonialmacht. Im Lauf der folgenden Jahrzehnte unterwarf sie dann fast ganz Indien südlich von Delhi und wurde zum unrühmlichen Vorreiter kolonialistischer Ausbeutung. Im glänzend erzählten Buch von William Dalrymple kommt nun auch die Perspektive der Moguln und Einheimischen zu ihrem Recht. Der Autor hat zahlreiche unveröffentlichte Quellen auf Urdu, Persisch und Punjabi ausgewertet und kann die dramatischen Ereignisse so auch durch die Augen der Beteiligten zum Leben erwecken. 9783406834400 Werktäglicher Versand.
