Sinopse

A witty whodunit set in WWII England starring “one of the more interesting married teams of detectives . . . A sort of globetrotting Nick and Nora” (Thrilling Detective).   While in England, Pat and Jean Abbott are focused on contributing to the war effort in whatever way they can, but they don’t mind taking a weekend to join some other American expats at the country home of advertising man Steve Hayward and his wife. But before much fun can be had, a body is found on the premises. Pat isn’t so sure that everyone’s impulse to blame the death on a passing drifter or a Nazi spy is the answer—and when the spotlight of suspicion falls on a member of a house party he’s sure is innocent, he starts getting reluctantly involved in the case . . .  Praise for the Pat and Jean Abbott Mysteries   “Lively and exciting.” —The New York Times   “Well-plotted and mystifying.” —Saturday Review

    The secrets she carries could either save a nation or doom it. Her name is Rebecca Hawke, and she's the only one who can stop the fire.  
    Rebecca Hawke, born into the clandestine depths of the Secret Specter program, finds herself running for her life. Fleeing not only the sinister clutches of the rogue CIA unit that raised her but also the very agency she once served and the country she loves. Yet, her most relentless pursuer is the haunting reflection of her own existence. 
    Trapped in a body that refuses to age, Rebecca battles a relentless tide of self-doubt, her psyche a battleground for inner demons that refuse to rest. Just when she believes she's escaped her past, her former CIA handler resurfaces, bearing news of a Russian sleeper agent within the Agency itself—a sleeper with a singular goal: to reduce the United States to ashes. 
    With the clock ticking and millions of innocent lives hanging by a thread, Rebecca reluctantly reenters the treacherous world she tried to leave behind, her last hope against a time bomb that could obliterate a nation. Every twist and turn she navigates reveals unsettling echoes of her own life, leading her to a chilling realization: the line between friend and foe is thinner than she ever imagined. 
    As shocking truths unravel, and long-lost figures reemerge from the shadows of her past, Rebecca grapples with a harrowing question: How can she defeat a psychopath determined to incinerate a nation and destroy her in the process?

    Join Rebecca Hawke on an electrifying journey into the heart of espionage, where betrayal lurks behind every corner and redemption is the ultimate prize. Secret Specter is a pulse-pounding spy thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.

    A bundle of books #1 (ONLY MURDER) and #2 (ONLY RAGE) in Rylie Dark’s Sadie Price FBI Suspense Thriller series! This bundle offers books one and two in one convenient file, with over 100,000 words of reading.Special Agent Sadie Price, a 29-year-old rising star in the FBI’s BAU unit, stuns her colleagues by requesting reassignment to the FBI’s remote Alaskan field office. Back in her home state, a place she vowed she would never return, Sadie, running from a secret in her recent past and back into her old one, finds herself facing her demons—including her sister’s unsolved murder—while assigned to hunt down a new serial killer.In ONLY MURDER (Book #1), two women are found dead in a remote area of Northern Alaska, near Sadie’s hometown. Floating under the ice, their bodies are preserved much the same way Sadie’s own murdered sister was found—a memory that still plagues her. The case strikes way too close to home, blurring Sadie’s judgment, stirring up memories of her estranged father and murdered sister, memories she’s not ready to grapple with. This part of Alaska—icy, rough, remote, populated by outcasts—proves impenetrable even for a seasoned FBI agent like Sadie. The killer, matching his landscape, is more sinister and smart than anyone Sadie has encountered. Amidst the perplexing clues, Sadie remains sure of only one thing: he will strike again. Against her wishes, Sadie must team up with Sheriff Logan Cooper—single, begrudging, and with a dark past of his own. Together, they must enter the canals of this killer’s twisted mind and seek help from the locals, however hostile, to solve the pattern of these murders before another girl turns up dead. With a major storm coming, can Sadie solve the murders before it’s too late? Or will she end up as the next body floating under the ice?In ONLY RAGE (Book #2), FBI Special Agent Sadie Price has barely recovered from her last case when she is assigned to an urgent, new one: a gruesome discovery has revealed women are turning up dead, their bodies found in the cargo holds of fishing boats, half-eaten by crabs. Sadie, stuck for the winter and here to stay, must form a tenuous alliance with Sheriff Logan Cooper and the local bar owner if she is to penetrate the icy wall of outcast locals. Exploring the harbor and the crusty workers who inhabit it, Sadie needs answers to this seemingly unsolvable string of murders—and to the mysteries of her own past. Suspects abound in the remote and unforgiving landscape. But this is no garden variety killer, and hunting him down may end up a bridge too far even for a brilliant agent like Sadie. In a deadly game of cat and mouse, can Sadie prove herself a match for this killer? Or will he prove to be her undoing?An action-packed page-turner, the SADIE PRICE series is a riveting crime thriller, jammed with suspense, surprises and twists and turns that you won’t see coming. It will have you fall in love with a brilliant and scarred new character, while challenging you, amidst a barren landscape, to solve an impenetrable crime. Book #3-#6 in the series—ONLY HIS, ONLY ONCE, ONLY SPITE, and ONLY MADNESS—are now also available.
