Following weeks of heavy rain, the earth comes crumbling down on one of
Larvik’s residential areas, burying a handful of houses.
Detective William Wisting is quick to join the rescue operation.
Luckily, by sunrise the next day, it becomes clear that the landslide
has claimed no victims.
And yet, just twenty-four hours later, a body is found – and the victim
was killed before the landslide.
As Wisting opens an investigation into the mysterious murder, he soon
discovers this death might have dangerous ties to a series of ongoing
cases.
And the clues start leading Wisting not towards an enemy on the outside
– but to a traitor in his own unit…

Elvis Cole and his enigmatic partner, Joe Pike, race to find a terrifying, unidentified killer in this twisting, unpredictable thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Robert Crais.
Traci Beller was thirteen when her father disappeared in the sleepy town of Rancha, not far from Los Angeles. The evidence says Tommy Beller abandoned his family, but Traci never believed it. Now, ten years later, Traci is a high-profile influencer with millions of followers and the money to hire the best detective she can find: Elvis Cole.
Elvis heads to Rancha where an ex-con named Sadie Givens and her daughter, Anya, might have a line on the missing man. But when Elvis finds himself shadowed by a gang of vicious criminals, the missing persons cold case becomes far more sinister.
Elvis calls his ex-Marine friend, Joe Pike, for help, and they follow Tommy Beller's trail into the depths of a monstrous, hidden evil. The case flips on its head, victims become predators, predators become prey, and the question becomes: Can Elvis Cole save them all from this nightmare?
Carl, reeling from the death of his brother, is drowning in
visions. Followed by shadow men through the crumbling outer regions
of the city. Unable to trust those closest to him. Doubting his own
reality. As a wave of brutal, ritualistic gangland killings sweeps
through the underworld, Carl's involvement with a life he thought
he had left behind catches up with him, with terrifying results. In
the Shadow of the Phosphorous Dawn is the raw, brilliant debut
novel from Rob True, operating at the bleeding edge of crime and
psychedelic horror.
From the author of Looker comes this razor-sharp suspense about two
librarians whose lives become dangerously intertwined.
No one knows Margo's real name. Her colleagues and patrons at a
small-town public library only know her middle-aged normalcy,
congeniality and charm. They have no reason to suspect that she is, in
fact, a former nurse with a trail of countless premature deaths in her
wake. She has turned a new page, so to speak, and the library is her
sanctuary, a place to quell old urges.
That is, at least, until Patricia, a recent graduate and failed
novelist, joins the library staff. Patricia quickly notices Margo's
subtly sinister edge and watches her carefully. When a patron's death
in the library bathroom offers a hint of Margo's mysterious past,
Patricia can't resist digging deeper - even as this new fixation
becomes all-consuming.
Taut and compelling, How Can I Help You explores the dark side of human
nature and the dangerous pull of artistic obsession.
The latest instalment in LJ Ross's globally bestselling DCI Ryan mystery series.
Detective Chief Inspector Ryan is living a nightmare. As one of the country's foremost murder detectives, Ryan knows he can face the worst of humanity and step into the darkest minds because, every night, he returns home to the loving arms of his wife, Anna.
When he receives a call to say she's been arrested for the murder of a well-known author, he refuses to believe the evidence that seems to be piling up against her. Anna could never murder anyone. He's sure of it.
Isn't he?
With the case mounting against her, Ryan must search his soul to answer the question that seems to be on everybody's lips... Does he really trust the woman he married?
Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit, set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

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.
