    The 1980s: a decade when thousands of children vanished—and most were never found. 
     
    When six-year-old Charlotte Mercer disappears from her front yard in Silver Spring, Maryland, rookie FBI Agent Daisy Adams is thrust into a case that feels more like a haunting. There are no witnesses. No clues. 
     
    Daisy has seen horror before—but nothing like this. As the investigation deepens, so does her fear. Because every missing child reminds her of her own daughter, Lila. And the more she digs into Charlotte's disappearance, the more she's forced to confront the question she's spent years avoiding: 
     
    What if one day, it's Lila who vanishes? 
     
    Inspired by real events, The First Thread is a chilling psychological thriller about the monsters hiding in plain sight—and the parents who live in fear of hearing the words: your child is missing.

    Absolute Dark & Seductive | Spicy • A first-class page-turner that blurs the lines between passion, love & danger in a frightening way 
    "This is the third part of the absolutely erotic psycho-thriller trilogy by Robin Rafferty Paxton." 
    Forget everything you thought you knew about psychological thrillers. With "Absolutely Abysmal and Seductive" Part 3 of the trilogy, Robin Rafferty Paxton has created a work that pulls like a suction into the darkest corners of the human psyche - and only lets you go again when you have turned the last page... and even then, it won't let you go. He gets by without bloody scenes! 
    Even the title is a promise – and Paxton keeps it. This book is absolutely abysmal. It dives into depths you didn't know existed. It winds through a labyrinth of lies, obsessions, and hidden desires where nothing is as it seems. And it is seductive. Not only in the obvious sense – although the attraction between the characters is almost tangible – but also in the way Paxton builds the tension, how he plays with our expectations, how he pulls us deeper and deeper into the vortex. 
    The language is precise and atmospheric, the descriptions are so vivid that you can literally feel the settings, the smell of danger and the subliminal eroticism . "Absolutely Abysmal and Seductive" is not a book for the faint of heart. It's a psychological thriller that gets under your skin and captivates you at the same time. It is a book that will make you question your own abysses. 
    Read it at your own risk. But read it! 
    Warning: Not suitable for under 18s.

    Strike first, or strike out . . . 
    Dr. Autumn Trent hasn’t even finished the paperwork from her first official case as a federal agent before she and the rest of the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit are called to Washington, DC to investigate a series of home invasions. The six victims have very little in common other than they’re all wealthy couples brutally slayed just hours before hosting a dinner party. Who targeted them, and why? 
    Most importantly...who’s next? 
    As the team joins forces with DC’s Violent Crimes Unit to decipher a pattern behind the murders, there’s more on Autumn’s mind than just the investigation. Aside from her personal life being in tatters, Autumn’s best friend is still haunted by the trauma she suffered at the hands of her younger brother, and tension is mounting between Autumn and Chris Parker, a fellow agent with an ax to grind. 
    Autumn can’t think about any of that right now because a vicious predator is hungry for blood. She and her team are in a race against time. Can they stop the madness before the killer strikes again? 
    Autumn’s Strike, the seventh book in Mary Stone’s Autumn Trent Series, is an adrenaline-laced psychological thriller that will make you think twice before opening your door.

    After the sudden death of her husband, fraud investigator Kiara Fox is thrown into a high-stakes case that pulls her halfway across the world. In South Africa, oil tankers are mysteriously arriving at port with far less cargo than when they left – leaving the insurance company boss Tyrone haemorrhaging money. Despite her grief, Kiara can’t turn down the opportunity to help him work out what is happening as she knows this case could secure her family’s future. At the heart of the problem is Adesco Oil, a family-run empire. CEO Gavin Adriaanse wants to transform the company into an eco-friendly powerhouse, but his brother Tony will stop at nothing to protect the family’s wealth. Tensions are rising, especially with the launch of Neptune, a revolutionary new oil rig poised to change the industry forever. But when Kiara arrives, the case becomes far more dangerous than she ever anticipated. As she digs deeper, she uncovers a web of corporate deceit, betrayal, and espionage – both within Tyrone’s insurance company and Adesco Oil. With powerful enemies lurking in every shadow, Kiara realises that someone is willing to kill to keep the truth buried. The closer she gets to the heart of the conspiracy, the more deadly the game becomes. In a race against time, Kiara must navigate a world where profit meets power and uncovering the truth could cost her everything.

    Let bestselling author T.A. Williams whisk you away to gorgeous Tuscany in this cozy murder mystery featuring a retired DCI and his loyal companion, Oscar. 🐶 It really is murder in paradise! 
    An iconic bridge... 🌉 
    Private investigator, Dan Armstrong, lives and works in Florence and knows the world famous Ponte Vecchio well. Usually a magnet for tourists, on this occasion it is the scene of an unexplained death, and Dan finds himself involved in the intriguing case. 
    An uncompromising man... 😠 
    Dan quickly discovers that the victim, an elderly jeweller, was every bit as hard as the diamonds he sold in his shop on the bridge. Few people liked him, not even his adult children, and his business dealings look murkier than the waters of the River Arno. Dan suspects more secrets lie hidden…perhaps inside the massive safe in the old man's luxury villa… 
    A complex case. 💎🔍 
    As the evidence begins to mount up, so too do the suspects with their different motives. With a fortune in gold bullion and precious stones involved, Dan thinks the only way to catch the killer is to lay a trap, but might he be caught in the killer’s sights? Fortunately, he has Oscar, his canine wingman at his side, always eager to prove that he's as good as gold. 🐶 
    Can Dan and Oscar sniff out the killer’s tracks or will this case be a bridge too far?
