throws herself into the case, she can't help but wonder why the
kidnapper has targeted Eden. But Eden refuses to talk. She's silent

the kidnapper's possible motives. About what's happened in the
years since she and Abby parted ways. As the truth closes in, Abby
realizes that her past may not be as far behind as she
thought...and it's come home to collect.

Mariana Enriquez has been critically lauded for her unconventional and sociopolitical stories of the macabre. Populated by unruly teenagers, crooked witches, homeless ghosts, and hungry women, they walk the uneasy line between urban realism and horror.
The stories in her new collection are as terrifying as they are socially conscious, and press into being the unspoken—fetish, illness, the female body, the darkness of human history—with bracing urgency. A woman is sexually obsessed with the human heart; a lost, rotting baby crawls out of a backyard and into a bedroom; a pair of teenage girls can’t let go of their idol; an entire neighborhood is cursed to death when it fails to respond correctly to a moral dilemma.
Written against the backdrop of contemporary Argentina, and with a resounding tenderness toward those in pain, in fear, and in limbo, The Dangers of Smoking in Bed is Mariana Enriquez at her most sophisticated, and most chilling.
Bestselling author James Patterson weaves a suspenseful tale of a powerful mobster who runs up against a very determined cop and his faithful crime fighters.
A stunningly brilliant psychopathic killer who has skillfully eluded the police from London to Paris to New York. A beautiful woman journalist suddenly in grave danger. An unorthodox New York detective whose motive for stopping the killer couldn't be more personal or emotional.
All bound by the chains of secrecy, wealth, and crime formed by the cabal called The Midnight Club.
When the body of a theology student is found on a desolate stretch
of East Anglican coast, his wealthy father demands that Scotland
Yard should re-examine the verdict of accidental death. Commander
Adam Dalgliesh agrees to pay a visit to the young man's theological
college, St Anselm's, a place he knew as a boy, expecting no more
than a nostalgic return to old haunts and a straightforward
examination of the evidence. Instead he finds himself embroiled in
intrigue, conflict and dangerous secrets as the college is torn
apart by a sacrilegious and horrifying murder.
