#1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Charlaine Harris
returns to her "gripping, twisty" (Karin Slaughter, New York Times
bestselling author of Pieces of Her) alternate history of the
United States where magic is an acknowledged but despised power in
this fourth installment of the Gunnie Rose series. Felicia, Lizbeth
Rose's half-sister and a student at the Grigori Rasputin school in
San Diego--capital of the Holy Russian Empire--is caught between
her own secrets and powerful family struggles. As a granddaughter
of Rasputin, she provides an essential service to the hemophiliac
Tsar Alexei, providing him the blood transfusions that keep him
alive. Felicia is treated like nonentity at the bedside of the
tsar, and at the school she's seen as a charity case with no
magical ability. But when Felicia is snatched outside the school,
the facts of her heritage begin to surface. Felicia turns out to be
far more than the Russian Mexican Lizbeth rescued. As Felicia's
history unravels and her true abilities become known, she becomes
under attack from all directions. Only her courage will keep her
alive.

This "New York Times" and "USA Today" bestseller, now in paperback,
is a collaboration between twenty bestselling mystery novelists who
have joined forces to create a spellbinding story of love,
betrayal, and intrigue. "Readers can't go wrong with this juicy
thriller" raves "Library Journal."
Pericles "Perry" Christo is a PI with a past--a former cop who lost
his badge and his family when a corruption scandal left him broke
and disgraced. So when wealthy Upper East Side matron Julia
Drusilla summons him one cold February night, he grabs what seems
to be a straightforward (and lucrative) case.
The socialite is looking for her beautiful, aimless daughter,
Angelina, who is about to become a very wealthy young woman. But as
Christo digs deeper, he discovers there's much more to the lovely
"Angel" than meets the eye. This classic noir tale twists and turns
down New York's mean streets and along Hamptons' beaches and back
roads during a bitterly cold and gray winter where nothing is as it
seems and everyone has something to hide.
In this inventive "serial novel" storytelling approach, each of the
twenty bestselling writers brings his or her distinctive voice to a
chapter of "Inherit the Dead," building the tension to a shocking,
explosive finale. The editor, Jonathan Santlofer, has arranged to
donate any royalties in excess of editor and contributor
compensation to Safe Horizon, the leading victim assistance agency
in the country.

Sookie must deal with a new man in her life--the shapeshifter

character you'll love' Lee Child From the No. 1 New York Times
bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse series and the
inspiration behind HBO's True Blood, comes an electrifying new
thriller centered on a young gunslinging mercenary, Lizbeth Rose.
Set in a fractured United States, in the southwestern country now
known as Texoma, this is a world where magic is acknowledged but
mistrusted. Battered by a run across the border to Mexico,
gunslinger Lizbeth Rose takes a job offer from a pair of Russian
wizards. She may be young, but Gunnie Rose has acquired a fearsome
reputation and the wizards are at a desperate crossroads, even if
they won't admit it. They're searching frantically to locate the
only man whose blood they believe can save their tsar's life. As
the trio journey through an altered America, they're set upon by
enemies. It's clear that a powerful force does not want them to
succeed in their mission. Lizbeth Rose is a gunnie who has never
failed a client, but her oath will test all of her skills and
resolve to get them all out alive. The Dark Tower meets True Blood
in this gritty and wildly entertaining tale of Gunnie Rose. A woman
fighting unimaginable odds to keep her people alive after the
disintegration of America, this is a surefire hit for fans of The
Walking Dead or Westworld. Praise for Charlaine Harris 'A gripping,

Sookie Stackhouse discovers that her brother Jason is about to turn
into a were-panther for the first time. But her concern becomes
fear when a sniper sets his deadly sights on the local changeling
population in this "New York Times" bestseller.
With her knack for being in trouble's way, Sookie witnesses the
firebombing of Merlotte's, the bar where she works. Since Sam
Merlotte is now known to be two-natured, suspicion falls
immediately on the anti-shifters in the area. Sookie suspects
otherwise, but her attention is divided when she realizes that her
lover, Eric Northman, and his "child" Pam are plotting to kill the
vampire who is now their master. Gradually, Sookie is drawn into
the plot-which is much more complicated than she knows...
