Who is watching Nell Masters?

Nell Masters is certain someone is following her. The hairs on the back of her neck rise when she travels to and from work, there are silent calls to her office, and a huge bouquet of flowers arrives without a card. And Nell has a reason to be looking over her shoulder, because she has a secret that she’s hiding from everyone in her life, including her new partner, Alex. But Alex also has secrets of his own.

Fourteen years earlier, when Nell went by the name Elle Nugent, she witnessed a student, Bryony Sanders, getting into a stranger’s car. When Bryony was found murdered, Elle became obsessed with finding the person responsible. She was convinced she knew who it was and her fixation with Brett Parker, the man she accused, led her down a dangerous path …

Now, Nell tries to convince herself that this unnerving feeling of being watched is all in her mind. Has someone from her past discovered her new identity? Has the stalker become the stalked? Or is there something even more deadly at play?

The White Lotus meets Knives Out meets Crazy Rich Asians in this devilishly entertaining debut novel: both a sophisticated locked-room mystery in the tradition of Agatha Christie, and a provocative literary whodunit for the twenty-first century.

Ro Krishna is the American son of Indian parents, educated at the finest institutions, equally at home in London’s poshest clubs and on the squash court, but unmoored after he is dramatically forced to leave a high-profile job under mysterious circumstances. He decides it’s time to check in for some much-needed R&R at Samsara, a world-class spa for the global cosmopolitan elite nestled in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas. A person could be spiritually reborn in a place like this. Even a very rich person.

But a person—or several—could also die there. Samsara is the Sanskrit word for the karmic cycle of death and rebirth, after all. And as it turns out, the colorful cast of characters Ro meets—including a misanthropic politician; an American movie star preparing for his Bollywood crossover debut; a beautiful heiress to a family jewel fortune that barely survived Partition; and a bumbling white yogi inexplicably there to teach meditation—harbors a murderer among them. Maybe more than one.

As the death toll rises, Ro, a lawyer by training and a sleuth by circumstance, becomes embroiled in a vicious world under a gilded surface, where nothing is quite what it seems . . . including Ro himself. Death in the Air is a brilliant, teasing mystery from a remarkable new talent.

Cutting Edge is the third outing for DCI Charlie Anderson, veteran Glasgow copper and stickler for 'proper policing'. At a time when statistics seem to direct their every move, Charlie prefers his tried and tested methods for solving crimes which are more about exploring all the angles and finding the one piece of evidence that provides the key to conviction. He is certainly less than enamoured about being forced to engage the services of a profiler. He much prefers to employ his own gut feelings.

Set in near-contemporary Glasgow, those who know the city will see familiarity in the surroundings which Bill Daly deftly crafts for his characters. The story begins with the murder of an elderly woman, a member of the travelling community whose death seems motiveless. This is quickly followed by the murder of a young female accountant who has been lured to a public park, and, shortly afterwards, the discovery of the body of a heroin-addicted mercenary on a train. In each case the left hand is hacked off and sent to Charlie, along with a playing card. Three seemingly unrelated individuals, clearly being used to send a message, but what is the message? The case is gruelling enough, but when Charlie's wife is targetted in a local supermarket and his daughter starts to receive threatening messages suggesting she and her son are at risk, it becomes a personal mission to crack the case and save his family.

Charlie is looking for a serial killer, but one whose motives are unclear. None of the dead are in any way related to one another. Their lives are completely separate. Charlie finds himself battling with the top brass, with members of his own team and trying to keep the media at bay, while he tries to uncover a motive and find the killer. When he is summoned to speak to a Superintendent of The Metropolitan Counter Terrorism Command, what seemed bizarre before, seems suddenly even more so. New information, which Charlie must only divulge on a 'need to know' basis, heightens his concerns for his family and creates a greater urgency to track down the perpetrator.

Cutting Edge is a highly engaging read which progresses towards a satisfying conclusion at a good pace. Bill Daly has created a complex character in DCI Charlie Anderson, and for those of us who have followed his previous exploits in books one and two, it is possible to see how he has changed, perhaps mellowed somewhat, whilst at the same time upholding the same principles in the job that he always has. Here is a man approaching the end of his career, but still keen to do the job to the best of his ability, even if that does involve him being receptive to making some small concessions to progress. That said, if this is your first meeting with Charlie, then this is still a great standalone read.

New York Times Bestseller: A Chicago PI trying to help her elderly neighbors ends up tangled in politics and a murder in this "fast-paced, complicated mystery" (New York Daily News). V.I. "Vic" Warshawski and her neighbor share responsibility for a currently pregnant dog--but Mr. Contreras complains that her detective work keeps her too busy to help with little Peppy. Still, that doesn't stop him from adding more to her plate by asking her to investigate the disappearance of his friend, a fellow retiree. At the same time, Vic's trying to look out for a vulnerable eighty-year-old down the street whose property is considered an eyesore by the newcomers gentrifying the neighborhood. When Mr. Contreras's friend turns up dead in a canal, and the old lady on the block winds up in the hospital, Vic is swept into a world of organized labor, money, and politics--and discovers a distressing personal connection to the case. Vic may not always succeed as a guardian angel--but when things go wrong, she can chase down the demons--in this suspenseful novel from the Mystery Writers of America Grand Master and "crime-fiction pro" (People).

Among today's PIs, nobody comes close to Warshawski." --Publishers Weekly "The richest and most engaging yet of Ms. Paretsky's thrillers." --The New York Times "Densely textured, adroitly plotted." --Kirkus Reviews "One monster of a plot." --Booklist
