The last monster died a hundred years ago. At least, that's what the monsters want you to think. Half-monster Cash just wants to keep his head down and raise his daughter, Ellie, to be an upstanding member of monstrous society. Even if she'd rather spend the summer with her human friends than learn the art of man traps at Camp Dark Hollow. So the last person Cash wants to see is her uncle Arkady Abascal, who's also Cash's ex-boyfriend. Arkady has more than Ellie's summer plans on his mind. He's there to enlist Cash to find out who's been selling monster secrets. Cash hasn't gotten any better at telling Arkady no, but it's not just his weakness for Arkady that makes him agree. The Prodigium thinks an Abascal exposed them to humans, and now the whole family is at risk-including Ellie. Recruited to help Arkady identify the culprit-or frame a scapegoat-Cash finds the machinations of monstrous power easier to navigate than his feelings for Arkady. At least, at first. But when things get bloody, he wishes romantic disasters were all he had to worry about....

Home. For Jack and Gregor, the exiled Wolf Princes of the Scottish pack, it's someplace they never wanted to leave. For Danny, who fled as soon as he could, it's someplace he never planned to return. As for Nick, pathologist and carrion bird, he has nowhere else to be. It offers only one thing--the Old Man's help in putting down the bloody-handed treachery from the prophets who dogged them all the way from Durham. The twins' father is many things, not all of them kind, but not even the prophets would cross him. But when they finally arrive home, they find the Old Man gone and the prophets' puppet installed in his place.

As the stakes rise and the cold settles into their bones, they find that the old fairy tales hide horrors under their pretty words. In the Highlands, Fenrir has stirred, and he's hungry. The prophets have always said that a Wolf Winter is red as blood--but they never said whose.

Der Scheidungsanwalt Clayton Reynolds ist ein ëberzeugter Zyniker, der an harte Arbeit und One-Night-Stands glaubt. Außerdem ist er der Meinung, dass er als exzellenter Anwalt nie mehr nach Hause - in die elende Wohnwagensiedlung, in der er aufgewachsen ist - zurëckkehren muss. Mit ehrenamtlicher Arbeit fër ein Frauenhaus versucht er das schlechte Gewissen zu beruhigen, das ihn gelegentlich plagt. Als Nadine Graham mit einem gebrochenen Arm und einem Sohn erscheint, den sie verzweifelt beschëtzen will, kann Clayton ihre Bitte um Hilfe daher nicht abschlagen. Die Annahme des Falls bedeutet jedoch auch, den Ermittlungsbeamten -nennt mich einfach nur Kelly" um Unterstëtzung bitten zu mëssen. Das wäre gar nicht so schlimm, wenn Kelly nicht ein hoffnungsloser Romantiker wäre und außerdem der heißeste Mann, dem Clayton je begegnet ist. Kelly hat immer schon fër den unerreichbaren Clayton Reynolds geschwärmt. Er willigt ein, zu helfen, obwohl er mit dem mutterlosen Baby, das sein verwitweter Bruder bei ihm gelassen hat, eigentlich schon genug um die Ohren hat. Als Nadines Fall eine gefährliche Wendung nimmt und die zwei scheinbar gegensätzlichen Männer zur Zusammenarbeit gezwungen werden, entdecken sie, dass sie sehr viel gemeinsam haben. Die Lösung des Falls und die Rettung von Nadines Leben könnten Kelly jedoch alles kosten.

Sans son loup, la tâche s’avérera difficile, mais jamais il ne laisserait quelqu’un d’autre tuer son jumeau à sa place, même s’il doit quémander de l’aide auprès de son médecin très attirant, mais trop humain.Cependant, peut-être les prophètes visent-ils un but pire que la mort, et peut-être Nick s’avère-t-il moins humain qu’il le pense ? à mesure que les cadavres s’entassent et que les vieilles histoires se réalisent, les deux hommes doivent se serrer les coudes pour sauver Jack et empêcher les prophètes de réveiller une chose plus terrible encore que l’hiver de loup.

Divorce lawyer Clayton Reynolds is a happy cynic who believes in hard work and one-night stands. He also believes that being an excellent lawyer means he never has to go home to the miserable trailer park where he grew up and that volunteering at a women's shelter will buy off the conscience that occasionally plagues him. So when Nadine Graham comes in with a broken arm and a son she desperately wants to protect, Clayton can't turn down their plea for help. Taking the case means appealing to investigator "Just Call Me Kelly" for help. That wouldn't be so bad if Kelly weren't a hopeless romantic… and the hottest man Clayton's ever met. Kelly has always had a crush on the unobtainable Clayton Reynolds. He agrees to help, even though he has enough on his plate with the motherless baby his widowed brother left him to care for. As Nadine's case turns dangerous and the two seemingly opposite men are forced to work together, they discover they have a great deal in common—but solving the case and saving Nadine's life might cost Kelly everything.

Sequel to Dog DaysA Wolf Winter Novel When the Winter arrives, the Wolves will come down over the walls and eat little boys in their beds. Doctor Nicholas Blake might still be afraid of the dark, but the monsters his grandmother tormented him with as a child aren't real. Or so he thought…until the sea freezes, the country grinds to a halt under the snow, and he finds a half-dead man bleeding out while a dead woman watches. Now his nightmares impinge on his waking life, and the only one who knows what's going on is his unexpected patient. For Gregor it's simple. The treacherous prophets mutilated him and stole his brother Jack, and he's going to kill them for it. Without his wolf, it might be difficult, but he'll be damned if anyone else gets to kill Jack—even if he has to enlist the help of his distractingly attractive, but very human, doctor. Except maybe the prophets want something worse than death, and maybe Nick is less human than Gregor believes. As the dead gather and the old stories come true, the two men will need each other if they're going to rescue Jack and stop the prophets' plan to loose something more terrible than the wolf winter.

Cloister Witte est un homme au sombre passé. Il possède une adorable chienne, et il est toujours heureux quand il peut en parler. Par contre, après avoir grandi dans l'ombre d'un frère disparu, d'un bon à rien de père et d'un beau-père criminel, il préfère laisser le passé dans le Montana. Il est à présent officier de la brigade canine dans le département du shérif du comté de San Diego, où il paye un tribut à ses fantômes en faisant ce que personne n'a pu faire pour son frère: retrouver des personnes disparues pour les ramener chez elles. Il excelle à résoudre les énigmes complexes. Sa chienne est encore meilleure que lui. Cette fois, la personne disparue est un garçon de dix ans qui est entré dans les bois au milieu de la nuit et n'en est jamais revenu. Malgré l'aide hostile et distrayante du magnifique agent du FBI Javi Merlo, il devient vite évident que Drew Hartley n'a pas fait une fugue. Il a été enlevé et les preuves indiquent qu'il n'est pas la première victime du kidnappeur. Alors que les recherches s'intensifient, de vieilles rancunes et des tragédies sont ramenées à la surface. Malheureusement, à chaque nouvel indice découvert, les probabilités de retrouver Drew en vie diminuent.

Cloister Witte hat eine dunkle Vergangenheit und einen niedlichen Hund. Über den Hund redet er immer gern, doch seine von einem verschwundenen Bruder, einem nichtsnutzigen Vater und einem kriminellen Stiefvater Überschattete Kindheit lässt er lieber in Montana. Heute gehört er zur Hundestaffel des San Diego Sheriff's Department und entrichtet seinen Tribut an die Geister seiner Vergangenheit, indem er tut, was niemand fÜr seinen Bruder tun konnte: Er findet die Vermissten und bringt sie heim. Er besitzt ein Talent dafÜr, schwierige Fälle zu lösen. Der Hund erst recht. Diesmal handelt es sich bei der vermissten Person um einen zehnjährigen Jungen, der mitten in der Nacht in den Wald ging und nicht zurÜckkehrte. Mit der feindselig angehauchten Hilfe des ablenkend gut aussehenden FBI-Agenten Javi Merlo findet er schnell heraus, dass Drew Hartley nicht einfach fortlief. Er wurde entfÜhrt und die Spuren deuten darauf hin, dass er nicht das erste Opfer ist. Als die Suche voranschreitet, werden alte Bitterkeit und Tragödien der Vergangenheit ans Licht gezerrt. Gleichzeitig scheint es mit jedem neuen Hinweis weniger wahrscheinlich, dass Drew lebend gefunden werden kann.

Digging Up Bones: Book One Cloister Witte is a man with a dark past and a cute dog. He's happy to talk about the dog all day, but after growing up in the shadow of a missing brother, a deadbeat dad, and a criminal stepfather, he'd rather leave the past back in Montana. These days he's a K-9 officer in the San Diego County Sheriff's Department and pays a tithe to his ghosts by doing what no one was able to do for his brother—find the missing and bring them home. He's good at solving difficult mysteries. The dog is even better.  This time the missing person is a ten-year-old boy who walked into the woods in the middle of the night and didn't come back. With the antagonistic help of distractingly handsome FBI agent Javi Merlo, it quickly becomes clear that Drew Hartley didn't run away. He was taken, and the evidence implies he's not the kidnapper's first victim. As the search intensifies, old grudges and tragedies are pulled into the light of day. But with each clue they uncover, it looks less and less likely that Drew will be found alive.

Just another day at the office.  For some people that means spreadsheets, and for others it's stitching endless hems. For Jacob Archer a day at the office is stealing proprietary information from a bioengineering firm for a paranoid software billionaire. He's a liar and a thief, parlaying a glib tongue and a facile conscience into a lucrative career. He just has one rule—never get involved with a mark.  Well, had one rule. To be fair, though, Simon Ramsey is dark, dangerous, and has shoulders like a Greek statue. Besides, it's not as though Jacob's even really stealing from Simon… just his boss and his brother-in-law. Simon didn't buy that excuse either after he caught Jacob breaking into the company's computer network.  That would have been that—one messy breakup, one ticket to Bali booked—but it turns out that the stolen information is worth more than Jacob thought. With his life—and his ribs—threatened, Jacob needs Simon to help him out. Or maybe he just needs Simon.

A Wolf Winter Novel The world ends not with a bang, but with a downpour. Tornadoes spin through the heart of London, New York cooks in a heat wave that melts tarmac, and Russia freezes under an ever-thickening layer of permafrost. People rally at first—organizing aid drops and evacuating populations—but the weather is only getting worse. In Durham, mild-mannered academic Danny Fennick has battened down to sit out the storm. He grew up in the Scottish Highlands, so he's seen harsh winters before. Besides, he has an advantage. He's a werewolf. Or, to be precise, a weredog. Less impressive, but still useful. Except the other werewolves don't believe this is any ordinary winter, and they're coming down over the Wall to mark their new territory. Including Danny's ex, Jack—the Crown Prince Pup of the Numitor's pack—and the prince's brother, who wants to kill him. A wolf winter isn't white. It's red as blood.
