Il cacciatore del buio

romanzo di Donato Carrisi

"Se non sarà fermato, non si fermerà." Non esistono indizi, ma segni. Non esistono crimini, solo anomalie. E ogni morte è l'inizio di un racconto. Questo è il romanzo di un uomo che non ha più niente - non ha identità, non ha memoria, non ha amore né odio - se non la propria rabbia... E un talento segreto. Perché Marcus è l'ultimo dei penitenzieri: è un prete che ha la capacità di scovare le anomalie e di intravedere i fili che intessono la trama di ogni omicidio. Ma questa trama rischia di essere impossibile da ricostruire, anche per lui. Questo è il romanzo di una donna che sta cercando di ricostruire se stessa. Anche Sandra lavora sulle scene del crimine, ma diversamente da Marcus non si deve nascondere, se non dietro l'obiettivo della sua macchina fotografica. Percheé Sandra è una fotorilevatrice della polizia: il suo talento è fotografare il nulla, per renderlo visibile. Ma stavolta il nulla rischia di inghiottirla. Questo è il romanzo di una follia omicida che risponde a un disegno, terribile eppure seducente. E ogni volta che Marcus e Sandra pensano di aver afferrato un lembo della verità, scoprono uno scenario ancora più inquietante e minaccioso. Questo è il romanzo che leggerete combattendo la stessa lotta di Marcus, scontrandovi con gli stessi enigmi che attanagliano Sandra, vivendo delle stesse speranze e delle stesse paure fino all'ultima riga. "If you will not stop, it will not stop." There is no sign, only clues. There are no crimes, only anomalies. And every death is the beginning of a story. This is the novel of a man who has nothing - no identity, no memory, no love or hatred - if not their anger.... And a secret talent. Marcus... is a priest who has the ability to find anomalies and to glimpse the threads that weave the plot of each murder. But this story is likely to be impossible to reconstruct, even for him. This is the novel of a woman who is trying to rebuild herself. Sandra also works on crime scenes, but unlike Marcus does not have to hide, if not behind the lens of his camera. Because Sandra is a policewoman: her talent is nothing to photograph, to make it visible. But this time nothing is likely to be accepted. This is the novel of a killing spree that responds to a design, terrible yet seductive. And every time Marcus and Sandra think they've grabbed a piece of the truth, they discover a scenario even more disturbing and threatening. This is the novel where Marcus has the same puzzles that afflict Sandra, experiencing the same hopes and the same fears to the last line."

The complete guide to flight instruction

Gregory M. Penglis

This book will take you on a tour of our entire flight training system, from beginner to burnout. You will take a journey, step by step, through each rating and be given the knowledge and tools to avoid all the pitfalls and hassles that every other student will make without this insight. It doesn't matter where you are in your flying, there is something in here for every pilot. There are answers to questions most pilots will never think to ask. There are ideas and solutions to problems most pilots would never even consider. The Complete Guide To Flight Instruction is not a rote, laundry list copy of the procedures listed in the FAA Flight Training Handbook that so many other aviation books have become. Procedures in this book are not the endpoint, they are merely the beginning. Every procedure must have a purpose. Every purpose must fit into the big picture. Every pilot must learn that judgment and decisions are what flying is all about. Here you will learn how to develop judgment and make good decisions. From there you can develop your flying instinct, the most important quality and resource for any pilot. This book is your treasure map through the process. If you want a thorough analysis of everything that is wrong with our flight training system, and how to fix it, if you want a thought-provoking book that challenges everything you have come to believe is possible from your own flying, if you dare to reach beyond the very restrictive boundaries of current teachings, if you want to master flying and teach yourself how to fly the best that you can, then you must read The Complete Guide To Flight Instruction.
