Some secrets are too dangerous to keep . . .
TWO SUSPICIOUS DEATHS
When Dwayne and Alice Odom are killed, the police report states clearly
that it was a drug overdose. So why is their daughter, who was there
when they died, claiming that’s not the truth?
ONE YOUNG SURVIVOR
Betsy Odom doesn’t trust the police but when she finds herself in the
FBI’s custody after her parents’ deaths, she knows she has to be
careful. Her uncle wants to adopt her and as he is a very rich and
powerful man, she wants to let him. His criminal connections, however,
mean the authorities aren’t so sure.
ONE MAN ON THE RUN
Enter Travis Devine. Trying to escape a skilled predator who wants him
dead, Devine finds himself as Betsy’s bodyguard. But when an informant
is found murdered, Devine knows this job is perhaps even more dangerous
than the one he’s running from . . . and the true enemy may be on his
side.

Serial killer Saffy Huntley-Oliver's life is going great.
She's got a fabulous new boyfriend, Jonathan. She has literally got
away with murder. And now that she's no longer single, she can get back
to her favourite hobby: killing bad men.
Particularly Sir Thomas West, a children's TV star who truly deserves
to die.
But there are a few little snags. For one, her beloved sister Susie is
still dating that insufferable Finlay. For another, Sir Thomas has a
very large bodyguard. And Jonathan himself has given up his job
investigating true crime, despite all the tempting corpses that Saffy
keeps putting in his way.
All of this would be easy to ignore in the flush of new love. Except
Saffy's never been in love before, and it's weird. She's having
difficulty separating romance from homicide. Especially when someone
discovers Saffy's secret hobby and starts sending Jonathan coded
messages about her crimes.
Is someone trying to break them up? Or trying to hunt her down?

In a near-future world addled by climate change and inhabited by
intelligent robots called “hums,” May loses her job to artificial
intelligence. Desperate to resolve her family’s debt and secure their
future for another few months, she becomes a guinea pig in an
experiment that alters her face so it cannot be recognized by
surveillance.
Seeking reprieve from her recent hardships and her family’s addiction
to their devices, May splurges on passes for her family to spend three
nights respite in the Botanical Garden: a rare green refuge where
forests, streams, and animals still thrive. But when her children come
under threat, May is forced to put her trust in a hum of uncertain
motives to save her family.
Written with “precision, insight, sensitivity, and compassion” (Kirkus
Reviews, starred review), Hum is a “striking new work of dystopian
fiction” (Vogue) that delves into the complexities of marriage,
motherhood, and selfhood in a world compromised by global warming and
dizzying technological advancement, a world of both dystopian and
utopian possibilities.
Two sisters on trial for murder. They accuse each other. Who do you
believe? From Steve Cavanagh, the “wickedly clever” (The New York
Times) master of twisty psychological thrillers.
“911 what’s your emergency?”
“My dad’s dead. My sister Sofia killed him. She’s still in the house.
Please send help.”
“My dad’s dead. My sister Alexandra killed him. She’s still in the
house. Please send help.”
One of them is a liar and a killer.
But which one?

THE CLOCK IS TICKING TO CATCH A SERIAL KILLER…
Detective Constable Angus MacVicar has just landed his dream job –
transferred out of uniform and assigned to Oldcastle’s biggest ongoing
murder investigation: Operation Telegram, hunting the 'Fortnight
Killer'.
Every two weeks another couple is targeted. One victim is left at the
scene, their corpse used as a twisted message board. The second body is
never seen again.
This should be the perfect chance for Angus to prove himself, but he’s
been lumbered with the forensic psychologist from hell. It’s been
twelve days since the Fortnight Killer last struck, and the
investigation’s running out of time.
Angus's shiny new job might just be the death of him…
THE CLOSER YOU GET, THE FURTHER YOU HAVE TO FALL . . .
Munich, 1936. All eyes are on the Bavarian capital for the upcoming
Olympic Games. As athletes fight for gold and the Nazis fight for
power, Detective Sebastian Wolff faces a battle of his own.
A famous actress has disappeared and Wolff has been ordered to find
her, fast. But Elena Lang is no ordinary film-star: she is the mistress
of Joseph Goebbels - Hitler's right-hand-man in the party that Wolff
despises.
But this is a country on the brink of war, and corruption runs deep. In
a search that will take him from high society to the city's darkest
corners, Wolff will soon learn just how fine the line is between
justice and jeopardy...
