As the body count rises, Daley uncovers a network of secrets and corruption in the closeknit community of Kinloch, thrusting him and his loved ones into the centre of a case more deadly than he had ever imagined. The first novel in the D.C.I. Daley series, Whisky from Small Glasses is a truly compelling crime novel, shot through with dark humour and menace.

Lucas Davenport and his daughter, Letty, team up to track down a dangerous scientist whose latest project could endanger the entire world, in this latest thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author John Sandford.

Gaia is dying.

That, at least, is what Dr. Lionel Scott believes. A renowned expert in tropical and infectious diseases, Scott has witnessed the devastating impact of illness and turmoil at critical scale. Society as it exists is untenable, and the direct link to Earth’s death spiral; population levels are out of control and people have allowed disarray and disorder to run rampant. While most are concerned about deadly disease, Scott knows that it is truly humanity itself that will destroy Gaia. It’s only by removing the threat that the planet can continue to prosper, and luckily, Scott is just the right man for the job…

When Scott then disappears without a trace, Letty Davenport is tasked with tracking down any and all leads. Scott’s connections to sensitive research into virus and pathogen spread has multiple national and international organizations on high alert, and his shockingly high clearance levels at various institutions, including the Los Alamos National Laboratory, make him the last person they’d like to go missing. As the web around Scott becomes more tangled, Letty calls in her father, Lucas, help her lead a group of specialists to find Scott as soon as possible. But as Letty and Lucas begin to uncover startling and disturbing connections between Scott and Gaia conspiracists, their worst fears are confirmed, and it quickly becomes a race to find him before the virus he created becomes the perfect weapon.

Prokureur Ian Brand stuur ’n ondeurdagte twiet die kuberruim in en sy lewe word oornag pure hel. Thuli Khumalo, studenteaktivis op 'n kampus wat stink na petrol en traangas, moet kies tussen vaderverraad of haar beginsels versaak. Snaar Windvogel, vroeër van Matjiesfontein, is nou in transisie onder die lem van ’n enigmatiese plastiese chirurg. En al hoe gereelder slaan ’n kruisboogmoordenaar in die Moederstad toe . . .

Hierdie en vele ander fassinerende karakters bevolk ’n landskap waarin die enigste sekerheid ónsekerheid is. Want Etienne van Heerden se tergend aktuele nuwe roman sê veel oor die tyd waarin ons lewe, waar privaatheid en identiteit abstrakte begrippe geword het, fopnuus ononderskeibaar van die werklikheid, en “die waarheid” klaarblyklik ’n onhaalbare ideaal.

A brutal murder, a missing masterpiece, a mystery only Gabriel Allon can solve…

Acclaimed #1 New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva returns with the year’s most anticipated new thriller. Pre-order now!

Art restorer and legendary spy Gabriel Allon has slipped quietly into London to attend a reception at the Courtauld Gallery celebrating the return of a stolen self-portrait by Vincent van Gogh. But when an old friend from the Devon and Cornwall Police seeks his help with a baffling murder investigation, he finds himself pursuing a powerful and dangerous new adversary.

The victim is Charlotte Blake, a celebrated professor of art history from Oxford who spends her weekends in the same seaside village where Gabriel once lived under an assumed identity. Her murder appears to be the work of a diabolical serial killer who has been terrorizing the Cornish countryside. But there are a number of telltale inconsistencies, including a missing mobile phone. And then there is the mysterious three-letter cypher she left behind on a notepad in her study.

Gabriel soon discovers that Professor Blake was searching for a looted Picasso worth more than a $100 million, and he takes up the chase for the painting as only he can – with six Impressionist canvases forged by his own hand and an unlikely team of operatives that includes a world-famous violinist, a beautiful master thief, and a lethal contract killer turned British spy. The result is a stylish and wildly entertaining mystery that moves at lightning speed from the cliffs of Cornwall to the enchanted island of Corsica and, finally, to a breathtaking climax on the very doorstep of 10 Downing Street.

Supremely elegant and suspenseful, A Death in Cornwall is Daniel Silva at his best – a dazzling tale of murder, power, and insatiable greed that will hold readers spellbound until they turn the final page.

And he's in overdrive protecting Duchess and her brother.

Now, thirty years later, Vincent is being released. And Duchess and Walk must face the trouble that comes with his return. We Begin at the End is an extraordinary novel about two kinds of families―the ones we are born into and the ones we create.

In Night Shift, an exhilarating medical mystery-thriller by Robin Cook, fan favorites Jack and Laurie are lured into the dark underbelly of hospital dangers when a doctor is murdered.

Doctors Jack Stapleton and Laurie Montgomery are married and both work in the fast-paced metropolis of New York City. Juggling hectic schedules and family pressures, the last thing they need on their plates is a murder . . .

But when Laurie’s long-time friend Dr Sue Passero dies mysteriously in a hospital parking garage, an autopsy is required, which falls squarely under Laurie’s remit as newly-appointed chief medical examiner. So when Laurie asks Jack to take special care with the examination, he can hardly refuse.

Sensing foul play around Sue’s death having looked into the case more closely, Jack sets out to investigate on-site at Manhattan Memorial Hospital, even though it means defying the Office of Chief Medical Examiner’s rules. And what started out as an inquiry into Sue’s tragic passing soon turns into a deadly game of cat and mouse between Jack and a deranged killer who is ready to strike again . . .

In Sondes van die vaders is Danny Hector en haar ondersoekspan weer warm op die spoor van ’n nuwe moordverdagte.

Die weeskind Hansie Roodt, wat in die 1980’s as tienerseun galgdiens moes doen, het begin om die nasate van diegene wat hom destyds te na gekom het, vir húl sondes te laat boet. Hansie, nou bekend as Gabriël, is ’n reeksmoordenaar met ’n slinkse modus operandi wat aanhou uitdaag en verras, en kreatiewe maniere moet gevind word om hom te vang.

Nes sy voorganger beloof Sondes van die vaders om ook ’n groot gunsteling by lesers te wees – ’n viering van ’n skrywer wat ’n sonderlinge aanvoeling vir karakters, dialoog en bowenal vir stórie gehad het.

Die veelsydige en veelbekroonde François Bloemhof is verantwoordelik vir die afronding van Lerina se manuskrip.

THE SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER A killing like no other. A killer more twisted than he's ever seen before. A case that will test him to the limit. Has Robert Hunter finally met his match? 'Do you believe the Devil exists, Detective?' the officer at the end of the line asks. 'Because if you don't . . . I'm sure you will once you get here.' Robert Hunter is called to the most vicious crime scene he has ever attended. It is made even more disturbing when the autopsy reveals a poem, left by the killer, inside the body of their victim. Soon, another body is found. The methods and signature of the murder differs, but the level of violence used suggests that the same person is behind both crimes. Hunter's fears are confirmed when a second part of the poem is found. But this discovery does more than just link the two killings - it suggests that this is the work of a serial murderer. With no forensic evidence to go on, Robert Hunter must catch the most disciplined and systematic killer that he has ever encountered, someone who thrives on the victims' fear, and to whom death is a lesson that needs to be taught. From #1 Sunday Times and multi-million copy bestselling author, Chris Carter, comes the most compelling and ruthless Robert Hunter thriller yet.
