Cold cases get hot in this unputdownable mystery from Jennifer Lynn
Barnes, no.1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inheritance Games
series. Perfect for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder.
Three casinos. Three bodies. Three days.
After a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas, Cassie Hobbes and the
Naturals are called in to investigate. But even with the team's unique
profiling talents, these murders seem baffling: unlike many serial
killers, this one uses different methods every time. All of the victims
were killed in public, yet the killer does not show up on any security
feed. And each victim has a string of numbers tattooed on their wrist.
Hidden in the numbers is a code - and the closer the Naturals come to
unraveling the mystery, the more perilous the case becomes.
Meanwhile, Cassie is dealing with an equally dangerous and much more
painful mystery. For the first time in years, there's been a break in
her mother's case. As personal issues and tensions between the team
mount, Cassie and the Naturals will be faced with impossible odds - and
impossible choices.
Born smart. Born tough. Born FBI.
A gorgeous 20th anniversary edition of Eva Ibbotson's award-winning,
bestselling classic adventure, with a beautiful cover by Katie Hickey
and an introduction by award-winning author of Letters from the
Lighthouse Emma Carroll.
A joyous Amazon adventure set in the lush nature of Brazil, Journey to
the River Sea is filled with mystery and extraordinary characters.
Maia, an orphan, can't wait to reach her distant relatives a thousand
miles up the Amazon. She imagines a loving family with whom she will
share great adventures. Instead she finds two spiteful cousins who see
the jungle as the enemy and refuse to go outdoors. But the wonders of
the rainforest more than make up for the hideous twins and their
parents.
And when Maia meets a mysterious boy who lives alone on the wild river
shores, she begins a spectacular journey to the heart of an
extraordinary and beautiful new world.
One pinch of adventure, a dash of friendship, a sprinkle of mystery and
a HUGE spoonful of magic . . . Jamie Oliver, bestselling author and
internationally renowned chef, delivers the perfect recipe for a
page-turning children's fiction debut!
Billy and his friends know that Waterfall Woods is out of bounds;
strange things are rumoured to have happened there and no one in their
village has ventured past its walls for decades...

Anna, Jimmy and Andy, can't resist the temptation to explore! Only to
quickly discover that the woods are brimming with magic and inhabited
by all sorts of unusual creatures, including a whole community of
sprites who need the childrens' help!
With magical battles, a long-lost mythical city, fantastical flying
machines, epic feasts and one GIANT rescue, get ready for an adventure
you'll never forget! Also features a special selection of exclusive

Discover the magical world of Nevermoor and the adventures of Morrigan Crow, in this bestselling, award-winning series for fans of Harry Potter and His Dark Materials.
Morrigan Crow is determined, daring and ready for a new challenge: to step into her destiny as a Wundersmith, master the mysterious Wretched Arts, and control the power that threatens to consume her. She and her friends are proud to be in their second year of attendance at the magical Wundrous Society, and together they can face anything.
But a strange illness has taken hold of Nevermoor, turning its peaceable Wunimals into mindless, vicious unnimals on the hunt. As victims of the Hollowpox multiply, panic spreads. And with the city she loves in a state of fear, Morrigan quickly realises it is up to her to find a cure for the Hollowpox, even if it will put her - and the rest of Nevermoor - in more danger than ever before ...
Enter a world of hope and imagination in this wundrous series, winner of the Waterstones Children's Book Prize and with film rights sold to Fox.
