Beschreibung

When Ebony Makepeace packed a few things in a carry bag and closed the door of her North Melbourne apartment for the last time, she struggled to believe she was dead. But when she saw her parents, best friend and ex-boyfriend all crying at her funeral, she knew it to be true.
 
After an encounter with the Café Man, Ebony’s life as she knew it no longer exists. Everyone around her think she's dead. Moving Ebony into his house overlooking Port Phillip Bay, he introduces himself as Bradley, claiming to have saved her life.
 
Although Ebony feels like a prisoner, the man does not treat her as one, and the more time she spends in his house, the more comfortable she feels with him. Meanwhile, Brad’s best friend, police detective Ryan Sanderson helps facilitate Ebony’s "murder" and burial, and tries to keep his partner off Brad’s trail.
 
As the net around them tightens, Brad and Ebony work tirelessly to find out who wanted her dead. But can she cheat death a second time?

The stakes don't get much higher than murder . . . 
 
It's January 1969 in the small rural community of Center Springs, Texas. Constable Ned Parker suspects a larger mystery behind the seemingly accidental death of his nephew, R .B., who was found in his overturned pickup near Sanders Creek bridge. It appears that R. B. drowned in the shallow water, but something doesn't add up for Ned, who begins turning over stones in search of what really happened the night R. B. died. 
 
The mystery leads Ned to the Starlite Club, a dangerous honky-tonk recently constructed in a no-man's land on the Lone Star side of the Red River. His investigations there uncover suspicious characters, drugs, and gambling, but even more troubling are a series of murders that seem designed to eliminate anyone who might know what really happened to R. B. on that cold January night. 
 
As he works his way through the cover-up, Ned lands himself in a high-stakes game of consequences with no good end in sight. Are the good citizens of Center Springs conspiring against Constable Parker in his search for the truth?

Following in her mother Daisy's footsteps, Jazzi Swanson has transformed her rural New York bookshop and tea bar, Tomes & Tea, into a must-stop destination in the lakeside resort town of Belltower Landing, New York, where, in addition to her talent for tea, Jazzi has shown a skill for sleuthing when trouble is brewing . . .  
 
 
 
The Gentleman's Bake-off is not only good for the town's tourism, it's bound to boost business at Tomes & Tea. The celebrity judges of the contest—chefs, bakers, restauranteurs—will all be signing their cookbooks at Jazzi's shop. But with all the big personalities and inflated egos, she's starting to wonder if there are—as the saying goes—too many cooks. The competition is far from killer, with mostly residents and neighbors vying for bragging rights. But when local photographer Finn Yarrow takes first place, someone commits a most ungentlemanly act. Jazzi's partner Dawn finds the man bludgeoned next to his prizewinning Black Forest Cake. 
 
 
  
Between the judges and the contestants, the bookshop shop owner soon finds herself steeped in suspects as she tries to solve the crime. Was the murder connected to the bake-off—or did the shutterbug perhaps photograph something he shouldn't have? Either way, Jazzi is determined to find a killer who's trying to have their cake and eat it too . . .

Emotions are a terrible thing for serial killers to have. 
Britney Cage’s emotions are getting in the way—of her friendships, of her relationship with the sexy cop she’s dating, of her plans to track and kill her next victim. 
Florida’s most dangerous serial killer might have outsmarted the authorities for years, but she can’t escape the nagging desire to live something more closely resembling a normal life. 
Unfortunately, that life will never come unless she can confess the truth of who she really is to those closest to her. Not much chance of that, though, with the police officer who’s steadily working his way into her heart. He’d either arrest her or shoot her on the spot if he ever found out. 
Worse yet, it’s getting harder to tamp down her urge to kill. And that tug of war between her lust for blood and her need to come clean about it is threatening to tear her apart and land her on death row before she can figure out her next step. 
In her fourth installment of the popular 13 Reasons for Murder series, author Amanda Byrd again draws back the veil on the dark inner turmoil driving the most lethal serial killer in Florida history.
