Dopo il fallimento del suo matrimonio, Kate Granger si reca nella casa dei genitori sulle sponde del lago Hořejší per riprendersi. Poco dopo, scopre nel fondale del lago il corpo di una donna assassinata. Tra le pieghe di un abito stranamente antiquato indossato dalla vittima, Kate trova un neonato avvolto, freddo e tranquillo come la madre. L'identità della donna è sconosciuta, tranne che a Kate, che l'ha già vista nei suoi sogni. Un secolo prima, una storia d'amore si era conclusa in una tragedia mai risolta. È giunto il momento che il lago riveli i suoi segreti. Man mano che i misteri emergono, Kate si immerge sempre più in una terribile leggenda tramandata di generazione in generazione. Ora spetta a Kate chiarire e rimediare agli orribili errori commessi in un passato lontano…

In this original work of political philosophy, a leading feminist theorist challenges contemporary societal norms by questioning the traditional interpretation of the social contract as articulated by Locke, Hobbes, and Rousseau, and later by the Founding Fathers in the U.S. The author reveals that the narrative of the original contract, which underpins modern patriarchy, is incomplete. The sexual contract is often overlooked, leading to a disregard for men's patriarchal rights over women. The exclusion of women from the original contract raises significant issues when they are later included in the new contractual order. A key focus is on those who attempt to adapt contractarian theory for progressive purposes, arguing that this is fundamentally flawed. Feminists seeking a more equitable contract between equal partners or without coercion are misled, as the author asserts that "universal freedom is always a hypothesis, a story, a political fiction." The book also critiques mainstream political theorists and critics of contract theory. By examining contracts in everyday life—such as marriage, employment, prostitution, and surrogacy—the author employs a feminist lens to illuminate the contradictions surrounding women and contracts, ultimately addressing deeper political issues of freedom and subordination.

An einer Sache lässt Professor Richard Wiseman keinen Zweifel: Paranormale Phänomene gibt es nicht. Aber genauso wie die Raumfahrt zu einer Technologie führt, die das Alltagsleben verwandelt, liefert die Erforschung von Telepathie, Wahrsagerei und außerkörperlichen Erlebnissen bemerkenswerte Einblicke in Gehirn, Verhalten und Überzeugungen der Menschen. In seinem Buch »Paranormalität« untersucht der Bestseller-Autor nun mit gewohnt britischem Humor die neue Wissenschaft vom Übernatürlichen. Er nimmt die Leser mit auf eine wilde Geisterjagd und zeigt u. a., wie man Träume steuert, aus seinem Körper heraustritt, fremde Personen davon überzeugt, dass man alles über sie weiß, eine Gehirnwäsche vermeidet und mit nichtexistenten Geistern verkehrt. Werfen Sie also Ihre Kristallkugeln weg, entledigen Sie sich Ihrer Glücksbringer und bestellen Sie die Zeitschrift »Wöchentliche Wiedergeburt« ab. Es ist an der Zeit, die wahren Geheimnisse des Paranormalen zu entdecken.
