  A powerful debut novel that continues the legacy of ‘Master of the Genre’ Desmond Bagley with a thriller set in Australia, also appealing to a new generation of readers of who adore Jane Harper and Chris Hammer. 
  The Sequel to Desmond Bagley’s DOMINO ISLAND  
  Insurance investigator Bill Kemp had never wanted to trek deep into Australia’s remote interior. But when his clients Sophie and Adam Church inherit an abandoned opal mine, triggering some explosive long-lost secrets, they – and Kemp – find themselves facing an unknown enemy even more deadly than the vast, forbidding wilderness of the Outback… 
  The Desmond Bagley centenary novel honours the legacy of the bestselling thriller writer with a new adventure featuring Bill Kemp, described by Jeffrey Deaver as ‘part James Bond, part Philip Marlowe, and all hero’. Writer Michael Davies, who completed the first Kemp novel Domino Island for publication nearly 40 years after the author’s death, now weaves an original tale of danger and death under the blistering Australian sun. 
  In OUTBACK, Michael Davies masterfully crafts a tale of suspense and action, set against the backdrop of Australia's vast and unforgiving Outback. The inherited opal mine, a ticking time bomb of secrets and dangers, forces the characters into a deadly game of survival. 
  For fans of Fleur Mcdonald (Something to Hide), John Le Carré (Call for the Dead), Simon Mason (The Case of the Lonely Accountant), Mick Herron (Slow Horses), and Mike Maden (Clive Cussler’s Ghost Soldier).

  When her estranged husband shows up on her doorstep, Ginger Mallowan thinks she's finally getting her happily ever after…until he disappears and a deadly threat surfaces.
  
  Rick Mallowan had never been the type of father to play catch with his sons. Or the kind of husband to stick around. But when he shows up begging for another chance to win Ginger's long-retired heart, she can't deny her first love. He's proven he's a changed man, and it feels like a dream come true. But a nightmare begins when he vanishes and someone is seeking revenge.
  Unlike Rick's previous disappearing acts, this time he leaves behind a trail of terrifying clues: 
  Cryptic notes exposing secrets that put a target on her back.
  Bullets aimed at her in a deadly warning.
  Someone close to her abducted without a trace.
  Despite the missing years and unanswered questions, nothing can scare Ginger away from digging into the past to catch a killer… even if it costs her heart breaking all over again. As the search dredges up traumatic memories along with shocking clues from the 1970s, will flower power be enough to uncover The Who behind the death threats?
  
  While the truth might be dangerous, what she doesn't know might kill her.

  A Falling of Angels is the second part of the Sam Holloway Trilogy of military, action/adventure audiobooks by W T Delaney. The story unfolds against the backdrop of the western world's current struggle against Islamic terrorism. It's London in 2019 and the Islamic State has crumbled, and a team of British-born jihadists is on its way home with revenge and mass murder in mind. When a British agent within Daesh reveals a suicide bomb plot, Samantha Holloway, an ex-British Army Intelligence Corps operator, and her team of former Special Forces soldiers, are contracted by the Security Services to help. Sam's team must race to prevent the attack against the gripping backdrop of a secret, complex, and morally dubious CIA plot, to locate and capture the terrorist mastermind. Has Sam's team been told the truth as the clock ticks towards an attack on the heart of government? All three interlinked novels are based against a factual historical backdrop. The team works together again in the final book of the series An Evil Shadow Falls.  The author has drawn on his own experiences gathered while working as an intelligence officer in both Iraq and Afghanistan to craft the stories. The narrator served with him. ***** Five stars again for Delaney.***** I listened to this in two sessions.***** Brilliant, Delaney's background nails the authenticity once again.***** This audiobook is as gripping as the first. ***** Delaney is a tour de force! I literally couldn't put this book down. He makes the complex murky world of counterintelligence infinitely entertaining. Loved it!

  Tyler Stone is an enigma. He is polite, charming, intelligent, and possibly the most dangerous man you never want to meet. Disgusted by what he perceives as a society too stupid to realize it is being prayed on by divisive agendas that enrich a tiny minority, Tyler embarks on a killing spree. But this is no mindless act of violence; quite the contrary, it is a well-thought-out and executed plan that is akin to one man waging war against an entire nation. With casualties mounting, society coming apart at the seams, and law enforcement closing in, Tyler is determined to execute his plan and, more importantly, get away with it.

  In the not so distant future, six mega corporations and their privatized armies have supplanted the American government. They compete for resources, market position, and the ultimate long game prize of colonizing the stars. 
   
  Chevy Cole left her conservative family behind for life as a Launch Tech marine and never looked back, proud of her role as a first-into-the-fire grunt, even if she were well below the revered female super soldiers known as Aces. When rumors spread that one of the Big Six has created a fusion device that would put the stars within reach, all-out war looms. 
   
  After the catastrophic failed siege of a Nevada mine leaves most of her comrades dead, Chevy encounters a dying Ace in possession of a mysterious package and a surprise: this Ace is a man. Joined by Dolon, an aging mercenary "phantom" sent by Launch Tech to transport the package to an Idaho safehouse, the three form an uneasy alliance. 
   
  As they try to outrun a rival corporation's ruthless agents across the desert in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, Chevy realizes that their survival may also determine who controls the future. But when greed is the only rule of law, who can she trust?
