More Than You Know

Gary Smith

Sinossi

Award-winning author and photographer Gary Smith continues his mystery adventure series with the character Warren Steelgrave. True to the title of his first novel, The Willing, Warren Steelgrave gets involved in investigating a bomb threat by a radicalized Middle Eastern hate group. The terrorists’ plan is complex and ever-evolving. Their target may differ from the information first uncovered since their hatred is not limited to only one religion.
 
Central to the story is Warren Steelgrave’s unique ability to utilize the help of three very distinct entities: the national police of Italy, a powerful Mafia crime family, and a supportive American FBI agent. The cooperation between them and Steelgrave must remain clandestine to prevent public scrutiny.
 
Steelgrave’s ability to anticipate the terrorists’ elusive actions proves his worth. Unfortunately, Warren Steelgrave drops his guard, and an unexpected act of retribution results in near-fatal knife wounds.

How to Kill a Client

Joanna Jenkins

‘Everyone is going to say what a great guy and a great lawyer he was. He wasn't. He was a prick … And a shithouse lawyer.' 
Gavin Jones is dead at thirty-nine. As a lawyer who controlled millions of dollars in fees per year, he was legal firm Howard Greene's biggest client and wielded that power with manipulative contempt. But he saved his worst behaviour for women, at work and at home.  
The partners of Howard Greene relied on his favour to fund their lavish lifestyles. If sycophantic admiration of the man was all it took to secure work from Gavin, that's what they delivered. But no one liked Gavin. The list of those who suffered from his cruelty was long enough to include pretty much everyone who had contact with him. So who actually killed him? 
A fast-paced and wickedly funny thriller about power and revenge set in the pristine towers of capitalism, How to Kill a Client is a scorching debut straight out of tomorrow's headlines.

Never Back Down

Christopher Swann

For as long as she could remember, Susannah Faulkner knew that even though she lived a dangerous and violent life, she would try her best to do some good in the world. She’s hunted down evil men before, but the one man that puts fear into her heart, the one man who could destroy everything she loves, is the one man she cannot track down. And worst of all, she doesn’t know what will happen when she finds him...or if he finds her first. Finn, an ex-soldier who served alongside Susannah’s father in Iraq, left Suzie with a simple choice a year ago: she could watch her family die one by one, or she could pursue him in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. The stubborn and skillful Suzie knows just how dangerous he is and how far he will go to complete his vengeance. And so the hunt begins. Her journey takes her across the United States, from the mountains of Arizona to the river bluffs of Missouri to the streets of Atlanta. Along the way, she contends with both new and old friends and foes: the vulnerable Brooke, determined to escape her own nightmare; her brother Ethan and his new girlfriend, a reminder of a different and more peaceful life; her uncle Gavin and his connections to the criminal underworld; the street-smart Ajax, a shadowy ally of convenience; and an FBI agent who could be friend, foe, or potential lover. Suzie’s instincts have gotten her this far—but will they be enough against her evil equal?
