With winds rapidly approaching gale force, the rogue CTU operative must now follow the blood trail to a completely unexpected source. Because in less than 24 hours, a ruthless enemy hiding among "friends" plans to take out the already damaged Crescent City—and deliver a staggering blow from which the U.S. "Satan" may never recover.

The Angel of Terror

Edgar Wallace

"She had the face of an angel and the heart of a serpent."

Meet Jean Briggerland. To the world, she is a vision of ethereal beauty and innocence. To those who know her secrets, she is the "Angel of Terror"—a cold, calculating murderess who orchestrates the deaths of those around her to secure a massive fortune. When a young millionaire is framed and executed for a crime he didn't commit, his friend, the sharp-witted lawyer Jack Glover, vows to bring the beautiful monster to justice.

A Battle of Wits and Wills: In a deadly game of cat and mouse, Glover must navigate a world of forged wills, poisoned atmospheres, and narrow escapes. Jean Briggerland is unlike any villain of her era; she doesn't kill out of passion, but with the clinical precision of a master strategist. As Glover peels back the layers of her deception, he finds himself in the crosshairs of a woman who has never known failure—or mercy.

The Master of the "Twist": Edgar Wallace, the creator of King Kong and a pioneer of the modern thriller, delivers a fast-paced narrative filled with his trademark suspense. The Angel of Terror stands out for its chilling portrayal of a sociopathic antagonist who uses her societal standing and physical beauty as a shield. It is a quintessential British mystery that explores the thin line between civilization and savagery.

A Harmless Little Game

Meli Raine

Four years ago I lost my virginity on live, streaming television. Too bad I wasn’t awake for it. The video went viral. Of course it would. A Senator’s daughter on camera? Wouldn’t you click “share”? Besides, that’s what three of the four guys in the video did. Share. They shared me. But that fourth guy? The nondescript one in the background in the upper left corner of the screen, just sitting on the couch? The only one who did nothing? Not one single thing. That was my boyfriend, Drew. And that was the last time I saw him. Until today, when my father—now on a path to the White House—hired him as head of security for my new team as I return home after four years of “recovering” in an undisclosed location that involved white lab coats, needles, pills and damage control. You see, the other three guys never went to jail. Never had charges pressed. Never faced consequences. Until today. Game on.
