A MASTERPIECE IN SUSPENSE FROM POLISH DISSIDENT JAKUB ZULCZYK From the bestselling author of the book behind the HBO Europe show Blinded by the Lightscomes a brand-new claustrophobic mystery thriller that's taking Europe by storm. Agnieszka and her flatmates are trapped in her apartment block in the Central Krakow. All windows and doors are sealed, phone lines are down and the Internet is off. Cut off from the world, they find themselves in a strange game played by the mysterious 'THEY'. Paranoia thickens and tension builds as the chilling and gruesome endgame moves closer. 'Big brother meets Stephen King in this chilling novel that firmly delivers with a satisfying level of unease.' J M Dalgliesh Praise for Blinded by the Lights "A striking novel, brilliantly written - for the fans of the dark and gritty!"Robert Bryndza "Tough, knowing, high-octane crime fiction... Los Angeles has James Ellroy, Boston has Dennis Lehane, Oslo has Jo Nesbo. And Warsaw has its own two-fisted crime laureate in Jakub Zulczyk. Already a massive bestseller in Poland, this is brilliant stuff from a fresh new voice in crime fiction."Tony Parsons "Dark, dangerous, and seductive... A truly terrific piece of writing and I can't recommend it enough."G.D. Abson

NOW A MAJOR HBO EUROPE TV SERIES 'Tough, knowing, high-octane crime fiction... Los Angeles has James Ellroy, Boston has Dennis Lehane, Oslo has Jo Nesbo. And Warsaw has its own two-fisted crime laureate in Jakub &#379;ulczyk. Already a massive bestseller in Poland, this is brilliant stuff from a fresh new voice in crime fiction.' Tony Parsons 'Jakub &#379;ulczyk's Blinded by the Lightsis dark, dangerous, and seductive. A multi-layered story that - like his anti-hero's product - will assault your senses and leave you craving for more. This is post-Communist Warsaw, but it could be Moscow, New York, or London. A truly terrific piece of writing and I can't recommend it enough.'G.D. Abson 'A striking novel, brilliantly written - for the fans of the dark and gritty!'Robert Bryndza 'This gothic odyssey... is decidedly not for the faint of heart'Publishers Weekly Kuba is a cocaine dealer in the dark, electric streets of Warsaw, believing he is smart enough to stay in control, unlike the top lawyers, doctors, TV personalities who are his client base. However, after calling in the debt of a failing nightclub owner, breaking his own rules on other people's property and being caught in the consequences of his clients' actions, all control starts to slip from his grasp. Now suffering under the glare of the spotlight and dragged into the dark underbelly of the drug world, Kuba must find a way through the middle of the whirlwind of violence and betrayal sweeping him away.

Zrob mi jakas krzywde

Zawsze chodzi wylacznie o pieniadze. O nic innego. Ktos moze powiedziec ci, ze to niska pobudka. To nieprawda - oswiadcza bohater powiesci Jakuba Zulczyka. Ten mlody czlowiek przyjechal z Olsztyna do Warszawy, gdzie prawie skonczyl ASP. By uniknac powielania egzystencjalnych schematów swoich rówiesników - przyszlych meneli, ludzi mogacych w najlepszym razie otrzec sie o warstwy klasy sredniej, niepoprawnych idealistów - dokonal zyciowego wyboru wedlug wlasnych upodoban: Zawsze lubilem wazyc i liczyc.\nWazy wiec narkotyki i liczy pieniadze jako handlarz kokainy. W dzien spi, w nocy odbywa samochodowy rajd po miescie, rozprowadzajac towar, ale takze bezwzglednie i brutalnie sciagajac od dluzników pieniadze, przy pomocy odpowiednich ludzi.\nJakub Zulczyk w poruszajacy sposób ukazuje wspólczesna rzeczywistosc, zdeformowana do tego stopnia, ze handlarz narkotyków staje sie równie niezbedny jak strazak czy lekarz; jest nocnym dostawca paliwa dla tych, którzy chca - albo musza - utrzymac sie na powierzchni.\nKsiazka nominowana do Paszportów Polityki w 2014 roku.
