'A dark tale that gets under your skin. I couldn't tear my eyes
away from the page' Gemma Rogers, author of The Feud Dark,
disturbing and gripping. This is not for the faint of heart. Nurse.
Protege. Murderer. Marcus Gove has been all these things. He's
reached the pinnacle of his art and now it's time for him to take a
protege. Lovely Lucy is perfect for the role, or she will be . . .
Artist. Teacher. Daughter. Lucy Williams is just like everyone
else. She's had some success as an artist, not so much success in
love, but she's getting by. But soon she's going to have to become
something else if she wants to be a survivor. Detective.
Ex-husband. Underdog. Ray Lewis's career isn't heading anywhere.
But he's a solid detective and he's determined to find Lucy no
matter what the upper brass throw at him. Three people. Nineteen
days. Who will live and who will die?
Ben wasn't brought up, he was dragged up.With absent parents and
broken friends, a young Ben makes choices that are ruining his
life. Before he's even twenty, Ben's spells in prison begin, and
soon he finds himself involved in serious crime. When people begin
to die, Ben must choose a side. But is this really the life Ben
wants or is there a way out of this vicious cycle? Is he destined
to fulfil his fate of being once a prisoner, always a prisoner? Or
can Ben swap a life on the inside, for one with hope on the
outside? Ross Greenwood is back with this shocking, page-turning
glimpse into the criminal underworld. This book was previously
published as THE BOY INSIDE. Praise for Ross Greenwood: 'Move over
Rebus and Morse; a new entry has joined the list of great crime
investigators in the form of Detective Inspector John Barton. A
rich cast of characters and an explosive plot kept me turning the
pages until the final dramatic twist.' author Richard Burke 'Master
of the psychological thriller genre Ross Greenwood once again
proves his talent for creating engrossing and gritty novels that
draw you right in and won't let go until you've reached the
shocking ending.' Caroline Vincent at Bitsaboutbooks blog 'Ross
Greenwood doesn't write cliches. What he has written here is a
fast-paced, action-filled puzzle with believable characters that's
spiced with a lot of humour.' author Kath Middleton
From the author of The Jigsaw Man comes the next book in Nadine
Matheson's DI Henley series 'Nadine Matheson writes sentences like
roses, lovely and bristling with thorns . . . Matheson's voice is
exciting, urgent... and, now more than ever, vital' A.J. Finn * * *
'There is a freshness to Matheson's writing which promises a long
career' Morning Star * * * In this room, no one can hear you
scream... The Serial Crimes Unit are called in to investigate when
a local pastor is found stabbed to death. As DI Henley assesses the
crime scene, she discovers a hidden door that conceals a room set
up for torture - and bound to the bed in the middle of the room is
the body of a man. When another body is found, also tied down,
Henley realises there's someone out there torturing innocent people
and leaving them for dead. But why? There's nothing that connects
the victims. They didn't know each other. Their paths never
crossed. But someone has targeted them, and it's up to Henley and
the SCU to stop them before they find another binding room... * * *

Just when Sophie Sayers is starting to feel at home in the Cotswold
village of Wendlebury Barrow, a fierce new vicar arrives, quickly
offending her and everyone else he meets. Banning the villagers'
Halloween celebrations seems the last straw, particularly when
instead he revives the old English Guy Fawkes' tradition with a
bonfire piled high with sinister effigies. And what dark secret is
he hiding about her boss, the beguiling bookseller, Hector Munro?
Whose body is that outside the village bookshop? Not to mention the
one buried beneath the vicar's bonfire. Perfect for fans of M. C.
Beaton's Agatha Raisin. Previously published by Debbie Young as
Trick or Murder?
