I Slesvig efterforsker kriminalkommissær Arthur Holland et gådefuldt mord ombord på et særtog. Tiden er knap, og det tyske politi ånder ham i nakken med krav om hurtige resultater. Samtidig i København kæmper den tidligere krigssygeplejerske Vera Lund for at genfinde fodfæste efter sine voldsomme oplevelser i Flensborg. Da en politisk sværvægter opsøger Vera og tilbyder en mystisk, men velbetalt opgave, øjner hun en mulighed for at redde sin økonomiske situation og måske ligefrem få genrejsning. Men det er ikke uden risici at agere privatdetektiv midt i danmarkshistoriens største politiske krise, og da Christian X afskediger regeringen, og endnu et mord finder sted, trues både den politiske balance og Veras sikkerhed. Hvem er ven, og hvem er fjende, når alt er på spil? Og kan Vera og Arthur finde en vej gennem kaos, eller har de trods alt gabt over for meget denne gang? VIDNET I VOGN 12 er en fortælling om en tid i opbrud, hvor samfundsstrukturer styrter sammen, og kun de risikovillige kan få en plads i den nye verden.

Sophie has the great misfortune of being the eldest of three daughters, destined to fail miserably should she ever leave home to seek her fate. But when she unwittingly attracts the ire of the Witch of the Waste, Sophie finds herself under a horrid spell that transforms her into an old lady.

To untangle the enchantment, Sophie must handle the heartless Howl, strike a bargain with a fire demon, and meet the Witch of the Waste head-on. Along the way, she discovers that there's far more to Howl—and herself—than first meets the eye. An alternative cover for this ISBN can be found here

"April i Danmark, En bog på vers" er Poetens debut som seriøs digter fra 1940. Her afviser han den idylliske naturpoesi og præsenterer i stedet en række vers, som kritiserer ensretningen og trivialiseringen af menneskelivet. I en dagligdags og uprætentiøs tone får hverken religionen, samfundet, hans medmennesker eller han selv lov at gå ram forbi.Poul Sørensen (1906-1973) var en dansk forfatter, også kendt under navnet "Poeten". Han debuterede i 1940 med digtsamlingen "Poul Sørensen. En Bog på Vers", men han havde allerede siden 1928 fungeret som satiriker og viseforfatter i blandt andet "Svikmøllen". Ud over sin egen store produktion oversatte Poul Sørensen også moderne amerikansk lyrik og Heinrich Heines kærlighedsdigte til dansk.
