  Summoned to relieve destroyers that are bogged down by escort duty in the escalating Pacific Theater, the Hayward is met with a rather cold reception. In the eyes of Pacific Fleet sailors, North Atlantic convoy duty pales in comparison to the bloody, carrier-sinking battles of Savo Island and Guadalcanal. However, Atlantic Fleet ships have had to specialize in one thing: anti-submarine warfare. 
   
   
   
  The Hayward is sent off into remote South Pacific operating areas with orders to find and destroy Japanese submarines—but with little expectation of success. Her commanders take the mission literally; using radio intercepts that are being ignored at higher levels, they determine that the Japanese have set up a 1000-mile-long picket line of seven submarines, an entire squadron's worth, to act as a moveable barrier against the expected American advance into the next set of islands. These submarines are poised to sink every American aircraft carrier and destroyer and to change the course of the war. 
   
   
   
  What happens next is one of the legendary stories of the US Navy. The Last Paladin is high stakes naval warfare at its best, told with utter authenticity and a former ship captain's understanding of dramatic, intense combat. P. T. Deutermann continues his acclaimed series of WWII thrillers in this unforgettable novel.

When Ian Caxton is offered a 'gift' of a painting worth £25 million he knows it comes with 'strings'... and he'll also be breaking the law. The result could be a fortune... or a long term in prison.

Emma is close to unravelling the history of her 'Mademoiselle Chad' painting, worth an estimated £3 million. However, this value can only be realised if she can identify the owner prior to 1889. Another absorbing page-turning tale involving more risks and rewards, but could The Result be the moment when Ian's successes finally come to an end?

  NEW FROM USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR GINA LAMANNA 
   
   
   
  Hello, world. My name is Lucy Little, and I'm an author. 
   
   
   
  Actually, my mom thinks I'm a homeless bum with no health insurance, and my dad truly believes I'm as famous as Brad Pitt. He frequently asks me to sign napkins that he passes out like currency at the local police station where he likes to steal doughnuts. He's a former cop. That probably makes his theft acceptable. 
   
   
   
  There's only one problem with this whole "author career" of mine, and it's that I'm not actually making all that much money from it. I like to say I have a burgeoning career; I am making a living, but it's a pretty dismal living. But that's all about to change. I've got a new game plan, a pen that's mightier than a sword—but not literally because I'm terrified of violence—and a bunch of words to put down on paper. 
   
   
   
  Unfortunately, my plan gets thrown out the window the day I stumble upon a real live dead body. The next thing I know, I'm wrapped up neck deep in a murder investigation with the superhot cop who is also my ex-boyfriend. It's all fun and games until the killer starts coming for me, and then I start wondering how I can write the end when I might be next?

  Two identical murders, thirty years apart. 
   
   
   
  Thirty years ago, gangland enforcer Archie Boothroyd was brutally slain in an apparent ritual killing. The case was never a high priority for the police—after all, it meant one less gangster on the streets—and his murderer was never caught. 
   
   
   
  Now, almost three decades later, when Paul Bradley—a close friend of Boothroyd's—is murdered in exactly the same way, DCI Jane Phillips and the Major Crimes Unit are called in to investigate. Is Bradley's death the work of a copycat? Or has the original killer finally returned? 
   
   
   
  As the team delve deeper, they find themselves immersed in the dark underworld of gangland Manchester, where kidnapping, torture, and murder are an everyday hazard. 
   
   
   
  When a third body is found mutilated in exactly the same way, Phillips and the team realize they are in a race against time to catch the killer. But what they don't understand is the next victim could be one of their own. 
   
   
   
  Can Phillips find the murderer before they strike again? Or is she about to lose everything she holds dear to the Deadly Night?
