Killer twists. Heroes to believe in. Trust Baldacci. Memory man FBI
agent, Amos Decker, returns in this action-packed thriller to
investigate the mysterious and brutal murder of a federal judge and
her bodyguard at her home in an exclusive, gated community in
Florida from international bestselling author David Baldacci.
Things are changing for Decker. He's in crisis following the
suicide of a close friend and receipt of a letter concerning a
personal issue which could change his life forever. Together with
the prospect of working with a new partner, Frederica White, Amos
knows that this case will take all of his special skills to solve.
As darkness falls, evil comes to light . . . Judge Julia Cummins
seemingly had no enemies, and there was no forced entry to her
property. Close friends and neighbours in the community apparently
heard nothing, and Cummins' distraught ex-husband, Barry, and
teenage son, Tyler, both have strong alibis. Decker must first find
the answer to why the judge felt the need for a bodyguard, and the
meaning behind the strange calling card left by the killer. Someone
has decided it's payback time.
In the rural town of Verdon, Nebraska, in the early days of the
20th century, you can't go ten feet without running into one of the
Fargos. So, Grant Fargo argues to his grandfather Lincoln, it's
perfectly all right that he's desperately in love with his first
cousin, Bella-she's the only source of intelligent conversation for
miles, and in a town like Verdon, it would be hard "not" to end up
with a relative of one kind or another.
Before it all plays out, men will be murdered, jailed, tarred and
feathered or worse, and while everyone in the Fargo clan would kill
for the family deeds, God might just end up with them instead. In
HEED THE THUNDER, one of Thompson's earlier works, Thompson's
signature style collides with a sweeping picaresque of the American
prairie, in a multigenerational saga that's one part Steinbeck, two
parts Dostoyevsky, and all Jim Thompson.
Family first. Family last. The Glass family always... Charley Glass
arrived in her family's lives like the hurricane she'd escaped. But
she hadn't run far enough: the ruthless Giordano family are on her
tail and want two things - her life, and the return of the property
she stole from them. No matter how many bodies stack up. After
years of hoping, Charley finally has the family she's always
wanted, but now she's going to have to tell them the real reason
she came looking for them. There is only one way she's going to
stay alive, and that is to employ the muscle of the notorious Glass
Family. The head of the family, Luke, isn't sure they're strong
enough to take on one of New Orleans' biggest crime gangs. But he'd
put his life on the line to protect the empire they've built - even
if they'll have to take on an enemy hurting enough to cross an
ocean for revenge. Page-turning, gritty, and utterly compelling,
Thief is Owen Mullen's best book yet. Perfect for fans of Martina
Cole, Kimberley Chambers and Mandasue Heller. What readers say

just when it's needed... he never fails to give you hard-hitting
