'I know we didn't do the right thing. None of us'.

The Return Podcast, dreamed up by Olivia Ellis, gives women the opportunity to process trauma and spiritual rebirth. Some share their stories anonymously, with distorted voices, and finally say out loud what they've been through. But what if someone recognizes the woman behind one of the stories? Someone who caused the trauma...

One night, Olivia is attacked. The case is assigned to Nathaniel Holden, who quickly realizes that the clues are not as clear-cut as they seem. Which podcast interview will lead to the real culprit? Who will immerse themselves in the created appearance and who will be the first to expose the illusion: the readers or the detective? Bettina Ludányi once again presents a twisted story rich in psychological elements to the reading public.

The psychological novel, spiced with social criticism, leads into the depths of human destinies and traumas. Entangled in the web of manipulation, we may realize that real life is actually a collection of masks and games

Romance

Nikola Tesla in Budapest is a journey through a forgotten world of intrigue, invention, and mystery, where the boundaries between historical fact and imaginative fiction blur.

Nikola Tesla's work largely determines our contemporary life. It is enough to think of radio or wireless energy transmission, but we can also mention the solar power plant and the alternating current motor. This special Serbian man is also interesting to us because he lived and worked in Hungary for a while, and even lived as a Hungarian citizen for almost three decades, although within the framework of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.

András Szepes' book is set in the Hungarian period, but Nikola Tesla in Budapest is not a biographical work, but a novel in which we gain an insight into the operation of secret societies and the secret service
