    Some secrets are worth dying for. Others are worth killing for. 
    Jonny wants nothing — no roots, no ties, no past. That philosophy dies the moment his nephew Andres stops showing up. 
    On the campus of Holy Dominion University, students are vanishing. No headlines. No police. Just silence — and a powerful man with something to hide. 
    When Andres becomes the next target, Jonny is the only one willing to go looking. What he uncovers reaches from the university's inner circle to a ritual killing ground buried deep in the Indiana woods. 
    Justice doesn't come clean. But it does come. 
    A perfect read for fans of Lee Child, David Baldacci, James Patterson, Michael Connelly, and Harlan Coben.

    World-renowned cellist Celeste Morgan has spent her life performing perfection on the world's grandest stages-while carrying out assassinations no government will ever admit to ordering. But when her mother's hidden files reveal the inner machinery of Eidolon, the shadow network that built her, Celeste becomes something far more dangerous than a weapon: a woman who knows where the bodies are buried. 
    Hunted across international concert halls and back corridors by former allies and a new, ruthless mastermind, Celeste must survive a brutal global tour where every performance could become her last. With her partner Kiril Volkov walking the razor's edge beside her, she is forced to confront a devastating truth: dismantling Eidolon may require becoming the very thing she despises. 
    As the music swells from New York to Tokyo to Barcelona and beyond, Celeste begins turning the organization's own secrets against it-one silent movement at a time. 
    The Killer Concerto is a pulse-pounding spy thriller about control, identity, and the cost of reclaiming your voice in a world that profits from your silence. And as this book closes, Celeste realizes she hasn't ended the war-she's only written the first line of the next score.

    Are the sins of the past threatening the present . . . ? 
     
     
     
    1686, The Netherlands 
     
     
     
    After getting Master Mercurius jailed and nearly put to death with one of his schemes, the Stadhouder, William of Orange, has finally left Mercurius in peace. 
     
     
     
    But Mercurius is not able to remain in Leiden for long. A friendly debate on the sin of witchcraft has been proposed between the University of Leiden and the University of Leuven. And the scholars are to meet part-way in the city of Maastricht. 
     
     
     
    When researching the local witch trials from seventy years ago, Mercurius comes across astonishing charges that could not possibly be true. But the opposing side brings forth a witch-finder as a witness who is adamant that the women he charges bear the signs of the devil. 
     
     
     
    Before the debate can continue, the witch-finder is found brutally murdered. His body was left inside the library, locked from the inside with no other available exit. 
     
     
     
    Could this be the work of Satan? His wrath provoked by the investigation into local witch trials? Or is the culprit someone grounded much more in reality . . . ?
