Birds, Strangers and Psychos: New stories inspired by Alfred Hitchcock

"Birds, Strangers and Psychos is a thrilling anthology that brings together the biggest names in mystery and crime fiction to pay homage to Alfred Hitchcock, the legendary filmmaker whose name is synonymous with suspense. Acclaimed editor Maxim Jakubowski curates 24 original short stories, each inspired by the mood, tension, and style that defined Hitchcock’s groundbreaking work. This anthology invites both emerging and established voices to reimagine the chilling atmospheres, twisted plots, and unforgettable characters of Hitchcock's films, from Psycho and Vertigo to North by Northwest and The Birds. Each author takes on the challenge of evoking the quintessentially 'Hitchcockian' elements that have captivated audiences for decades: ordinary lives interrupted by peril, psychological duels, and unexpected encounters that spiral into nightmares. The volume showcases an extraordinary blend of talent, including Lee Child, Denise Mina, Sophie Hannah, Vaseem Khan, MW Craven, Jeff Noon and S. A. Cosby and many more! Just as Hitchcock adapted stories from literary giants like Daphne du Maurier, Patricia Highsmith, and Roald Dahl, Birds, Strangers and Psychos unites today's literary stars to craft new suspenseful tales that are destined to thrill, haunt, and unsettle. This volume is not just a collection of stories – it’s an invitation to rediscover the artistry of suspense."

[Italian] - Mezzanotte a Malabar House

"Bombay, 1949. È la sera di Capodanno e in tutta la città si celebra la fine del decennio più turbolento della storia dell'India: gli inglesi se ne sono andati e il paese è finalmente indipendente. Ma mentre tutto intorno impazza la festa, nel seminterrato di Malabar House - stazione di polizia periferica e scalcinata dove finiscono gli agenti ritenuti inadatti o semplicemente troppo scomodi per incarichi di rilievo - l'ispettrice Persis Wadia è sola alla sua scrivania. A sei mesi dal reclutamento, Persis rimane la prima e unica agente donna del paese. Malvista dai colleghi, anche questa volta le è stato affidato il turno di notte. Quando il telefono squilla è perciò lei a ritrovarsi per le mani un caso a dir poco delicato: sir James Herriot, noto diplomatico e uomo d'affari, è stato pugnalato a morte durante un ballo in maschera che vedeva riunito nella sua villa il bel mondo cittadino. Persis, affiancata dal criminologo di Scotland Yard Archie Blackfinch, viene catapultata in un'indagine dai risvolti politici scottanti, al cui centro si affastellano grandi interessi economici, afflati nazionalisti e brame di potere sfrenate. Tantissimi i sospettati - nella migliore tradizione del giallo anglosassone -, altrettanti i papabili moventi per uccidere un uomo che si rivela via via ben più equivoco di quanto la sua linda immagine pubblica lasciasse intendere. Viaggiando in cerca di prove o testimoni attraverso un territorio diviso tra fanatici hindu e nazionalisti islamici, l'ispettrice Wadia si scontrerà con i pregiudizi di un popolo ancora legato al passato coloniale e dovrà sgomitare per farsi strada malgrado il suo talento, l'ingegno aguzzo e il coraggio. contributori TR Luigi Maria Sponzilli LE Lorella De Luca"
