Publisher's summary
Wenn Reichtum für alle möglich wäre, man dafür aber von seinem eigenen Geld abgeben müsste, würdest du teilen?
"Stoppt die Gier!" rufen sie und "Tod dem Kapitalismus". Auf der ganzen Welt demonstrieren Menschen gegen die Folgen einer neuen Wirtschaftskrise. Nur ein paar wenige Reiche sind die Gewinner. Bei einem Sondergipfel in Berlin will Nobelpreisträger Herbert Thompson eine Rede halten, die die Welt verändern könnte. Denn angeblich hat er die Formel gefunden, mit der Wohlstand für alle möglich ist. Doch dazu wird er nicht mehr kommen. Bei einem Autounfall stirbt er - aber es gibt einen Zeugen, der weiß, dass es Mord war. Jan Wutte will wissen, was hinter der Formel steckt, aber die Mörder sind ihm dicht auf den Fersen...

Wenn Sie das Wetter beeinflussen könnten, wen würden Sie vor der Erderwärmung retten? Ihre Heimat? Grönland? Afrika? Das neue faszinierende Zukunftsszenario von SPIEGEL-Bestsellerautor Marc Elsberg. Als mehrere schwarze Flugobjekte über dem chinesischen Luftraum auftauchen, hält die Welt den Atem an. Hat die chinesische Regierung ihre Drohungen wahr gemacht? Werden sie Taiwan angreifen? Das Weiße Haus ist in Aufruhr, und der amerikanische Präsident kurz davor, die Flotte zu alarmieren. Erst in letzter Sekunde kann eine Klimawissenschaftlerin einen Angriff abwenden.

Nie hätte die Juristin Dana Marin geglaubt, diesen Tag wirklich zu erleben: Bei einem Besuch in Athen nimmt die griechische Polizei den Ex-Präsidenten der USA im Auftrag des Internationalen Strafgerichtshofs fest. Sofort bricht diplomatische Hektik aus. Der aktuelle US-Präsident steht im Wahlkampf und kann sich keinen Skandal leisten. Das Weiße Haus stößt Drohungen gegen den Internationalen Gerichtshof und gegen alle Staaten der Europäischen Union aus. Und für Dana Marin beginnt ein Kampf gegen übermächtige Gegner.

"Wenn Sie innerhalb von 48 Stunden herausfinden, warum ich diese Frau entführt habe, bleibt sie am Leben. Falls nicht - stirbt sie." Mit dieser Botschaft beginnt das perverse Spiel eines Serienmörders. Er lässt seine Opfer verhungern, ertränkt sie in Tinte oder umhüllt sie bei lebendigem Leib mit Beton. Verzweifelt sucht die Münchner Kommissarin Sabine Nemez nach einer Erklärung, einem Motiv. Erst als sie einen niederländischen Kollegen, Maarten S.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 99
Björn Diemel wird von seiner Frau gezwungen, ein Achtsamkeits-Seminar zu besuchen, um seine Ehe ins Reine zu bringen, sich als guter Vater zu beweisen und die unausgeglichene Work-Life-Balance wieder herzustellen. Denn als erfolgreicher Anwalt hat Björn sehr wenig Zeit für seine Familie. Der Kurs trägt Früchte und Björn kann das Gelernte sogar in seinen Job integrieren, allerdings anders als gedacht. Denn als sein Mandant, ein brutaler und mehr als schuldiger Mafiaboss, beginnt, ihm ernstliche Probleme zu bereiten, bringt er ihn einfach um - und zwar nach allen Regeln der Achtsamkeit.

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind." Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Badly researched - story simply bad
I really like Marc Elsberg's books, but this one unfortunately is just a major disappointment. The performance is great, but this is the first story by Marc Elsberg that's just not well researched nor thought through.
Spoiler alert: the suspense builds up regarding a new paradigm shift in economic theory, until (spoiler alert) the revolutionary theory is revealed essentially as more or less a communist system. While mathematically obviously not wrong, it just doesn't take into account human behavior and anybody with an economic background will immediately understand the flaws and why the theory would not work. Of course one can't expect a paradigm shift in economic theory from a fiction author, but I still expected a bit more than that (better if the revolutionary theory would stay a mister in an open end
).
In addition, the whole story is just very repetitive. The two protagonists are being hunted by the police and some killers at the same time. They repeatedly almost get caught by both and just escape, then repeat.
On the positive side, Marc Elsberg does illuminate some flaws in our current capitalistic system like the tendencies to create monopolies and to widen the gap between rich and poor, but those are taught in any first year economics course and surely nothing new to any reader.
Overall, while I'm still a fan of Marc Elsberg's work, this book is just a failure and really not worth the read/listen.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
