One train. No stops. A deadly game of survival and revenge.
In 1942, six people destroyed Anna Matheson's family. Twelve years later, she's ready for retribution.
Under false pretenses, Anna has lured those responsible for her family's downfall onto a luxury train from Philadelphia to Chicago, an overnight journey of fourteen hours. Her goal? Confront the people who've wronged her, get them to confess their crimes, and deliver them into the hands of authorities waiting at the end of the line. Justice will at last be served.
But Anna's plan is quickly derailed by the murder of one of the passengers. As the train barrels through the night, it becomes clear that someone else on board is enacting their own form of revenge, and that they won't stop until everyone else is dead.
With time running out before the train reaches its destination, Anna is forced to hunt the killer in their midst while protecting the people she hates the most. In order to destroy her enemies, she must first save them, even though it means putting her own life at risk.
Six people land on a desert island ready to make their reality show
debut.
The contestants are hungry to prove themselves. The stakes are high and
losing is not an option. But three weeks and eighteen episodes later,
five of the six contestants sit in a Portuguese police station, and
none of them are winners.
Because twelve million people were watching when Rhys Sutton died on
camera, and someone must pay for the crime.
The best friend, the rival, the girlfriend, the lover, and the sworn
enemy are left standing. And of course, no-one is talking. But how do
you keep secrets when the world has been watching?
Especially when, just a day before his murder, Rhys was the most hated
man on television.
When Skye Rogers and her twin brother Red move to Manhattan, rumours of a coming global apocalypse are building. But this does not stop the young elite of New York from partying without a care.

As society crumbles, Skye and Red race to figure out how to use their knowledge to survive the impending annihilation, they soon discover that the chaotic end of the world is the perfect time for revenge...
Lesson #1: Trust no one.
Eve has a good life. She wakes up each day, kisses her husband Nate,
and heads off to teach math at the local high school. All is as it
should be. Except…
Last year, Caseham High was rocked by a scandal involving a
student-teacher affair, with one student, Addie, at its center. But Eve
knows there is far more to these ugly rumors than meets the eye.
Addie can’t be trusted. She lies. She hurts people. She destroys lives.
At least, that’s what everyone says.
But nobody knows the real Addie. Nobody knows the secrets that could
destroy her. And Addie will do anything to keep it quiet…
In the “action thriller extraordinaire that is not to be missed” (The

has been lurking in the shadows since the devastating 9/11 terrorist

all he can to stop a deadly plan that could change the course of world
history forever.
A terrorist attack hits close to home for James Reece in the “gripping”

justice that could end up being a deadly trap.
The repercussions of a shocking murder in 1980 are still being felt in
Only the Dead as a secret group of global elites plan domination.
Facing incredible odds, James Reece, “the American, twenty-first
century answer to James Bond” (Caleb Daniels), must call on all his
deadly skills to stop a dangerous plan generations in the making.
Finally, in Red Sky Mourning, a “masterpiece of absolute mayhem” (The
Real Book Spy), a conspiracy that could bring America to its knees
forces James Reece back into the fight. Only he and an AI-enabled
quantum computer with extraordinary powers can save the country…but are
they too late?
They came for you. But they got the wrong house... A gripping, unputdownable thriller from the No. 1 bestselling author of NO ONE SAW A THING. Andrea Mara turns ordinary fears into extraordinary thrillers, and this is her best book yet.
Look what you started. You press send. Your message is full of secrets about your neighbours. It’s meant for your sister, but it doesn’t reach her – it goes to the entire local community WhatsApp group instead.
As rumour spreads like wildfire through the picture-perfect neighbourhood, you convince yourself that people will move on, that this will quickly be forgotten. But then you receive the first death threat.
The next day, a woman has been murdered. And what’s even more chilling is that she had the same address as you – 26 Oakpark – but in a different part of town. Did the killer get the wrong house? It won’t be long before you find out…
While in Paris, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is awakened by a
phone call in the dead of the night. The elderly curator of the Louvre
has been murdered inside the museum, his body covered in baffling
symbols. As Langdon and gifted French cryptologist Sophie Neveu sort
through the bizarre riddles, they are stunned to discover a trail of
clues hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci—clues visible for all to
see and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.
Even more startling, the late curator was involved in the Priory of
Sion, a secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Victor
Hugo, and Da Vinci, and he guarded a breathtaking historical secret.
Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle—while
avoiding the faceless adversary who shadows their every move—the
explosive, ancient truth will be lost forever.
