Beschreibung

Once a successful attorney, Morris Rock’s world changed the day a ruptured brain aneurysm brought his career to a halt. In the quiet aftermath, he discovers the concept of ambiguous loss: the grief that haunts those left behind when someone vanishes without a trace.
 
Still recovering, Rock makes a bold decision: to return to the field, not to argue in court, but to find the missing. Reuniting with his trusted investigator Cleon Odom, Rock takes on the case of Joan Bradley, who has disappeared.
 
For Rock, the case is more than an unsolved mystery: it’s a path back to purpose. While chasing answers for others, he's also in search of something deeply personal: the man he used to be.

    Top 50 bestselling author Ross Greenwood is back with this page-turning glimpse into the criminal underworld 
    Vinnie has always been different. But Vinnie is a survivor… 
    A childhood accident robbed Vinnie of his memories, making him sensitive and anxious, and his difference soon attracted bullies. If it wasn’t for his family and his brother Frank, Vinnie wouldn’t have survived. 
    But as the boys grow up, and after the devastating loss of their parents, Vinnie finds himself increasingly involved in violent situations whenever he’s with Frank. Is this the type of man he’s become, or can the love of a remarkable woman teach him to embrace life? 
    When Vinnie is accused of a terrible crime, and looks set for a long stretch behind bars, fragments of his memory start to return and he begins to unravel his past. 
    Who was his mother? What kind of a man is his brother, Frank? And why does death surround them? 
    Things are not as they seem, but Vinnie can survive anything…

    Description:
    When she catches her fiancé Tristan cheating with her best friend Charlie—while three months pregnant—she doesn't cry or scream. Instead, she walks away calmly, hiding a decades-long grudge that's about to ignite. What seems like acceptance is actually the start of a twisted revenge plan targeting the "perfect" people who've haunted her life.
    As she lures the charming James into her orbit and uncovers shocking family ties, every step pulls Tristan, Charlie, and even her own mother into a web of lies, betrayal, and irreversible consequences. This dark, suspenseful tale peels back the layers of envy, parental pressure, and the cost of letting resentment fester.
    It's a gripping reminder: when we let others define our worth, everyone loses. Dive into a story where revenge burns bright, but redemption is nowhere in sight.

    "The Adventure of the Norwood Builder", one of the 56 short Sherlock Holmes stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is the second tale from The Return of Sherlock Holmes. The story was first published in The Strand Magazine in 1903 with original illustrations by Sidney Paget.
    Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are visited by "the unhappy John Hector McFarlane", a young lawyer from Blackheath who has been accused of murdering one of his clients, a builder called Jonas Oldacre. McFarlane explains to Holmes that Oldacre had come to his office only a day earlier and asked him to draw up his will in legal language. McFarlane saw, to his surprise, that Oldacre was making him the sole beneficiary and even heir to a considerable bequest, and McFarlane cannot imagine why Oldacre would do so. That business took McFarlane to Oldacre's house in Lower Norwood, where some documents had to be examined for legal purposes. They had been kept in the safe, where the murder allegedly took place. McFarlane left quite late and stayed at a local inn. He claims to have read about the murder in the newspaper the next morning on the train. The paper said quite clearly that the police were looking for him.
