Summary

Agreeing to become Kisten’s mate was only the first step for Raiven. Even though she’s excited to move forward in her future by the Alpha’s side, other worries plague the Immortal’s mind.
 
It seems that she and Kisten still cannot reconcile their differences, but she hopes that with the Oath gone, they may be able to work through their issues. Their plans are halted, however, when the Hunter Whistleblower comes to the Americas in search of LeAlexende. He claims to be Kisten’s long-lost father, and Raiven is forced to use her dormant necromancy to keep him from stealing her mate.
 
Doing so causes her to learn that her power is not what she thought it was, and that it could be more dangerous than the Hunter himself. As they race against the clock to destroy this new threat, will their differences bring them closer together, or push them apart?

A glamorous woman suddenly turns up dead in the middle of nowhere in a tragic, mysterious puzzle that only Georges Simenon’s legendary detective can solve.It’s just another slow, rainy day on a French canal, until the discovery of a woman’s body disrupts the placid scene. Inspector Maigret is baffled by the facts of the case: an expensively dressed woman, Mary Lampson, has been strangled in a nearby stable, with no road nearby wide enough for automobile traffic. Only by chance was her body found, without a noise, witness, or trace of mud to aid in explaining the scene. How did this glamorous, pearl-laden woman meet her end? It seems that those on board the barge La Providence—Mary’s proud husband, Sir Walter; a friend named Willy Marco; and a Chilean parliament member’s widow—might hold the key to the puzzle. In The Carter of La Providence, once again, Georges Simenon orchestrates a harrowing plot of secrets and dramas that disturb, and reveal the underbelly of, the everyday.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

IN THE GARDEN: It really is a lovely day. I'm not used to sitting in the garden, basking in the pleasant weather and enjoying the fruits of my labour. I spend most of my time here weeding and pruning, so I'm grateful for the opportu-nity to laze around for a change, watching the flower heads bob gently in the soft breeze, listening to the drowsy hum of the bees as they gorge on the comfrey blossoms.

Welcome to Seacastle, a neglected resort on England's south coast. Divorced, broke, and saddled with a malevolent rescue cat, Tanya Bowe has swapped investigative journalism for running a struggling vintage furniture shop. When her tech-savvy stepson, Mouse, invades her life, he's a reminder that the modern world moves faster than she does.

As Tanya dives deeper, she must navigate a quirky cast of Seacastle locals, work around George's skepticism, and reluctantly accept Mouse's tech support—all while staying one step ahead of a killer who's ready to strike again. 
 
Did Mel fall . . . or was she pushed? And can Tanya uncover the truth before the killer strikes again?

Winner of two book awards — Global Book Awards (Silver, Mystery/Detective) and NYC Big Book Award (Distinguished Favorite). 
Now the gritty Detective Mystery thriller comes to life in immersive, cinematic audio with surround-style sound design and on-scene effects—be in the crime scene. 
Detective Charlie Dawson has seen more chaos than most men survive. Once the department’s sharpest mind, now the city whispers he’s past his prime. The chief saddles him with a rookie team—bright, eager, and far too green for what’s coming. Every lead drags them deeper into a cursed case that won’t let go. 
In the shadows of the investigation stands Thomas Caldwell—a decorated soldier turned military ghost. The kind of man who doesn’t appear in databases, only in after-action reports that end in black ink and burned pages. His presence shifts the case from ordinary homicide to something buried deep in government silence. Caldwell moves like a man still following orders no one remembers giving—precision in his steps, vengeance in his pulse, and secrets that refuse to stay buried. 
But then there’s Ms. Rose—a reporter with a razor-sharp eye and the rare ability to reach Dawson in ways no one else can. Yet every time she gets close, Caldwell’s shadow and Dawson’s mission collide—and if she does, they’ll all end up caught in the crossfire. 
Two men. Both trained to survive. 
One driven by duty. The other by revenge. 
When they collide—only chaos wins. 
Set in a twisted alternate version of the Big East, Ding Dong Ditch fuses police-procedural tension, hard-boiled grit, and psychological warfare into a relentless detective story of vengeance, loyalty, and survival. Tied to the independent film, this edition features layered soundscapes, precise cue hits, and visceral effects that put you on the pavement beside the evidence tape. 
Perfect for fans of dark crime thrillers, noir detectives, and edge-of-your-seat procedurals.
