Sinopsis

A ransom demand leads to secrets revealed, in this twisting crime suspense from the author of The Victim. Eleven-year-old Danny Stone is snatched on his way home from school, bundled into the back of a van, and driven to a remote, deserted farmhouse. Danny’s parents, Martha and Richard, are frantic when their only child goes missing and call the police. Their home in Bristol is searched, and their lives and Richard’s career as a solicitor come under scrutiny. Finally, a ransom demand arrives. Martha wants to pay, but Richard procrastinates. When he leaves the house, Martha searches through his papers. It’s clear her husband has been keeping something from her. But as she tries to untangle his lies, while the police continue their search, Richard risks a dangerous negotiation on his own. And the question remains—how long can Danny survive?

    Hazel Greenwood, an awkward, late-blooming witch, finds true friendship and love while solving magical mysteries in this light, funny series that's been compared to "a mug of hot cocoa." 
    Hazel's not your average cat-loving witch who owns a bakery. She's got scars, the invisible kind; growing up, her magic and her confidence were smothered by her shallow Beige Witch mom and sisters. Now, at twenty-eight, Hazel's finally coming into her power and is a force to be reckoned with in her magical community, the idyllic seaside town of Blue Moon Bay. 
    But even though the Bay appears picture-perfect, with its quaint shops and misty mornings where sea spray mingles with magic, mysteries lurk beneath its small-town charm. When Hazel's thrust into the middle of a murder investigation in order to clear her boyfriend's name, she's surprised to find allies in her former high school rivals, neurodivergent bobcat shifter Max and ex-mean-girl-cheerleader Britt (now a chill, non-judgmental vampire). Soon Hazel's helped form an unstoppable trio of supernatural detectives. Now if only hot deputy Elliot James would share police intelligence with her ... along with any other secrets he might be keeping. 
    Wrapped in warmth, humor, and the cozy comfort of found family, the Blue Moon Bay Witches series weaves together magic, mystery, and romance into a spell you won't want to break. Dive into the enchanting world of Blue Moon Bay today.

    Local girls' soccer coach Sven-Gunnar Erlandsson is practically a saint in the community, known for his good works and volunteering. So when his body is found in Stockholm's beautiful Herräng forest, shot at close range in the back of the neck while walking home from a late-night poker game, the police struggle to find a motive. Nothing has been taken from his pockets except his cell phone, and the only other clues left behind are a cryptic handwritten note and a handful of playing cards. 
     
     
     
    The Hammarby murder squad takes the case, splitting up the leads between their eclectic mix of officers. Led by Detective Chief Inspector Conny Sjöberb, the team also includes a veteran inspector who balances his career with caring for his disabled daughter, a widow who has returned to police work after several decades spent as a homemaker and pursuing a law degree, a new transplant who recently achieved minor celebrity status as an Idol contestant, and a young police assistant struggling with trauma she can't share with her colleagues. 
     
     
     
    Each member of the team pursues a different lead and, as they interview Erlandsson's friends and family, they discover a disturbing web of secrets, including a possible link to the cases of two missing girls. Could Erlandsson have been less of a saint than everyone thinks?

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Six months after surviving the Nocturne case, Elena Méndez thought the horror was behind her. Then comes the letter, sealed in black wax, naming her the sole heir to Blackwood Manor — a forgotten estate in Hollow Creek where memories linger like rot and the past whispers through the walls. 
    What begins as a legal formality quickly unravels into a nightmare. Lamps burn with thick, red oil. A well in the garden sings with voices that are not human. Diaries, letters, and forgotten rituals reveal a family legacy soaked in blood: every generation of the Blackwood line must feed “The Guest,” an ancient entity bound by a pact — in exchange for prosperity, power… and silence. 
    As Elena descends into the house’s secrets, she uncovers the truth of her lineage, the madness of her ancestors, and the price of surviving what lives beneath the floorboards. Told through atmospheric chapters and interludes drawn from 19th-century journals, medical reports, and recorded confessions, Never Turn Off the Light is a slow-burning gothic horror novel that blends psychological dread with occult mythology. 
    Fans of The Haunting of Hill House, Mexican Gothic, and The Silent Companions will find themselves right at home — if “home” is a place with blood-soaked walls and a mirror that smiles before you do. 
    The Blackwood house doesn’t want to be inhabited. It wants to be fed.
