When three men are found hanged in locations around Colchester,
Detective Inspector Phil Brennan gets the shock of his life. Not
only are the victims dressed to look like him, but each carries a
defaced tarot card in the pocket of their identical leather
jackets, scrawled across with one name: Phil Brennan. The bodies
aren't found in random locations - they're all in places where DI
Brennan has caught a murderer. Someone is sending him a message.
And he thinks he knows who it is... Shocking and thrilling, in this
dramatic new Tania Carver thriller DI Phil Brennan and his wife,
psychologist Marina Esposito, have their lives turned upside down
as the past comes back to haunt their present with terrifying
consequences.
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
about Owen Mullen: 'Owen Mullen knows how to ramp up the action
just when it's needed... he never fails to give you hard-hitting
thrillers that have moments that will stay with you forever...'
'One of the very best thriller writers I have ever read.' 'Owen
Mullen writes a good story, he really brings his characters to life
and the endings are hard to guess and never what you expected.'

You've never met anyone like her . . .
Antonia Scott is special. Very special. She is not a policewoman or a
lawyer. She has never wielded a weapon or carried a badge, and yet, she
has solved dozens of crimes.
But it's been a while since Antonia left her attic in Madrid. The
things she has lost are much more important to her than the things
awaiting her outside.
She also doesn't receive visitors. That's why she really, really
doesn't like it when she hears unknown footsteps coming up the stairs.
Whoever it is, Antonia is sure that they are coming to look for her.
And she likes that even less . . .

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.
