හිරු එබෙන උදෑසන වාසල බණ්ඩාර මැණිකේ තම පුතුගේ දෑස්වලට එබෙමින් උන්නේ නොසන්සුන් සිතිනි.
තම මව විසින් තම අත මත තබන ලද සේයාරුව දෙස එකම බැල්මකින් රකිත බලා සිටියේ නොසන්සුන් ලෙසිනි.
“මට නිදහේ අර රටට වෙලා ඉන්න නොදී බොරු ලෙඩක් අරගෙන මාව මෙහෙට ගෙන්නුවේ මේ ගොඩේ ගෑණිව මගේ කරේ එල්ලන්න ද..?”
කෝපයෙන් දැවෙමින් රකිත තම අතේ වූ සේයාරුව මව වෙතට විසි කළේය.
කොහෙද බූරුවෝ මේ කෙල්ල ගොඩේ.. හොඳට බලපං උඹටම කැපෙන කෙල්ල..”
“කැපෙනවා.. මේ වගේ වැඩ නිසා ඔයාලයි මමී මගේ හිතෙන් කැපේනනේ..”

“උඹල ඔක්කොම එකතු වෙලා මගේ දරුවව මරාගෙන.. මහත්තයා මගේ දරුවා සෑහෙන්න විදවලා.. මුං ඔක්කොම මගේ දරුවව මරාගෙන.. මේ ඔක්කොම මගේ වැරදි..”
මැණිකේ පපුවට ගසා ගනිමින් විලාප නැඟුවාය.
“නෑ අම්මේ මේ ඔක්කොම බොරු.. රකිත මගෙත් එක්ක ජීවත් වුණේ සතුටින්.. මල්කි අක්කා ඔය කොළ අත්සන් කර ගත්තේ මං ආව මුල් දවස්වල එයා කිව්වේ රකිත කිව්වා මේවා අත්සන් කරන්න කියලා.. එක්යි මං අත්සන් කළේ…

“අයියේ මට රකිතගේ ඩොක්ටර් ගාවට යන්න ඕනේ..”

“ඩොක්ටර් එයාට.. එයාට කවදාවත් ඇවිදින්න බැරි ද”
“මේකයි මං මෙහෙම කියන්නම්කෝ.. මිස්ටර් රකිතව මෙහෙට ගේද්දී එයා ජීවත්වෙයි කියලවත් හිතුවේ නෑ.. මිස්ටර් නිසල් තමයි ඒ ගැන හෝප්ස් තියන් හිටියේ.. සුසුම්නාවට අනතුරක් වුණොත් ගොඩක් වේලාවට ජීවිත කාලය පුරාවටම ලෙඩ ඇඳේ ඉන්න වෙනවා.. ඒත් මං කියන්නේ නෑ සදාකාලිකවම ඇවිදින්න බැරි වෙයි කියලා..”

“අද ඉදලා අපි අලුත් නමකින් අලුත් ඩිසයින්වලින් මාර්කට් එක අල්ලනවා.. දන්නවද මේ එක පුංචි කෙල්ලෙක්ගේ හීනයක්.. ගිමා ෆැෂන්ස්…”
ඒ ඇගේ හීනයයි. රකිත ඇගේ හීනයට ළඟ දිනා ගත් ජීවිතයයි. ජීවිතය විසින් හීනය සැබෑ කරන්නට අඩිතාලම දමා අවසන්.. දැන් අවැසි වන්නේ ඒ අඩිතාලම මත ඇගේ හීණ මන්දිරය ගොඩ නැඟිම පමණක්මය.

But once her century of service is over, each Siren gets a chance to start over – a chance to live the mortal life that was almost stolen from her. Kahlen became a Siren after her family died in a terrible shipwreck, decades ago. And though a single word from her can kill, she can’t resist spending her days on land, watching ordinary people and longing for the day when she will be able to speak and laugh and live freely among them again.

Highlights:

අතුරුදන් ශිෂ්ටාචාරයක්…
බියකරු ගවේෂණයක්…
මාරක රහසක්…

ඉතිහාසයේ වඩාත් කල්පැවතුණු සහ විවාදාපන්න පුරාවෘත්ත අතරින් එකක් වන්නේ අත්ලාන්තික් හි අතුරුදන් නගරය පිළිබඳ පුරාවෘත්තයයි. ඒ අතුරුදන් නගරය කොහේදැයි යන ප්‍රහේළිකාව තමාට විසඳිය හැකි බව පුරාවිද්‍යාඥවරියක වූ නීනා වයිල්ඩ්ගේ විශ්වාසය විය.
ඇය, සියවස් ගණනක අතීතයේ එතෙක් මෙතෙක් ලොව වැදගත්ම ගවේෂණය ආරම්භ කරන්නේ හුදෙකලා බිලියනපතියකු වූ ‘ක්‍රිස්ටියන් ෆ්‍රොස්ට්’ගේ අනුග්‍රහයෙනි. ඔහුගේ රූමත් දියණිය, ‘කාරි ෆ්‍රොස්ට්’ සහ නීනාගේ පෞද්ගලික ආරක්ෂකයා ලෙස කටයුතු කරන, හිටපු විශේෂ බලකා සෙබළෙකු වූ ‘එඩී චේස්’ ඇගේ ගවේෂණයට සහාය වෙති.
එහෙත් ගවේෂණය සාර්ථක වනු දැකීම සැමගේම අපේක්ෂාව වන්නේ නැත. ප්‍රබල සහ අබිරහස් සංවිධානයක් වන ‘සහෝදරයත්වය’ වසර 11,000 පුරා සාගර පත්ලේ සැඟවී තිබෙන රහස මතුපිටට ගෙන ඒම වැළැක්වීමට ක්‍රියා කරයි.
අත්ලාන්තිසයේ රහස හඹා යමින් එය සොයා ගැනීමට උත්සාහ කළ බොහෝ දෙනෙක් දැනටමත් මරු තුරුලට යැවීමට ‘සහෝදරත්වය’ කටයුතු කර තිබිණි. නීනාගේ මව්පියන්ටද අත් වූයේ ඒ ඉරණමය.
මැන්හැට්න්වල වීදිවල සිට බ්‍රසීල වනාන්තරය දක්වාත්, ටිබෙටයේ කඳු මුදුන්වල සිට අත්ලාන්තික් සාගරයේ පතුල දක්වාත්, නීනා සහ එඩී කාලයට එරෙහිව නොවතින ගමනක යෙදෙනු ඇත. අන්තරායකාරී මරණීය මාවතක් ඔස්සේ, සියල්ල උඩු යටිකුරු කළ හැකි රහසක් හෙළිදරව් කරගැනීම පිණිස ඔවුන් යන ගමන, වත්මන් ශිෂ්ටාචාරය සදහටම විනාශ කර දමනු ඇත් ද?
ඔවුන්ට මාරක අභියෝග එල්ල කරන්නේ සහෝදරත්වය පමණද?
මේ, එම ඓතිහාසික ගවේෂණය පිටුපස සැඟවුණු බිහිසුණු ම්ලේච්ඡත්වයේ කතාවයි.

Over My Dead Body

Highlights:

In London, the Metropolitan Police set up a new Unsolved Murders Unit – a cold case squad – to catch the criminals nobody else can. In Geneva, millionaire art collector Miles Faulkner – convicted of forgery and theft – was pronounced dead two months ago. So why is his unscrupulous lawyer still representing a dead client? On a luxury liner en route to New York, the battle for power within a wealthy dynasty is about to turn to murder. And at the heart of all three investigations are Detective Chief Inspector William Warwick, rising star of the Met, and ex-undercover operative Ross Hogan, brought in from the cold. But can they catch the killers before it’s too late?
