Sinossi

 
TEENAGERS...OR TIME BOMBS?
The nation is gripped by the shocking crimes: "good kids" who are suddenly, inexplicably lethal. When Connecticut doctor Dr. Lexi Bradley gets the call that her son has become one of those shooters, her life is turned upside down.
Ten years ago, Secret Service agent Bryan Atwood became an expert on adolescent violence. Now the nightmare is back. Just as he is assigned to this new rash of killings, an MRI of the boy's brain reveals what must be pure science fiction. With Lexi's help, Bryan is determined to unearth the truth before more children die, but investigating a cross-country trail of buried horrors casts them both into a dangerous world where corporate greed can lead to sudden death.

    Helen Lipscomb seemingly has nowhere to go but down. Cashiered from the force, ostracized by most of her former acquaintances, and with no real connections left to the community, she's been getting by as a sort of unofficial investigator, doing piecework for various lawyers and bail bondsmen. Her former life as a homicide detective seems far behind her until a notorious serial killer, locked away and facing the death penalty, offers her the challenge of a lifetime. Not to prove his innocence, but to prove him guilty of even more murders than the authorities suspect, murders for which another convicted man, several states away, is taking credit.

    In a world where truth is manufactured and secrets are currency, one journalist dares to uncover what was never meant to be found. 
    Amore, once a respected investigative reporter, now runs a quiet independent site on the fringes of the media world. When a young woman is found dead in a luxury hotel under suspicious circumstances, Amore's instinct for the truth pulls him back into the shadows he tried to escape. What begins as a single story soon unravels into a web of deceit connecting powerful corporations, hidden networks, and digital manipulation at a global scale. 
    With the help of his sharp-witted assistant Naima and the mysterious fellow journalist Lucius, Amore follows a trail of coded messages, encrypted data, and buried scandals-each discovery blurring the line between truth and illusion. But the deeper he digs, the more dangerous the game becomes. Someone is watching. Someone wants him silenced. And in a world built on lies, even the truth can be weaponized. 
    Taut, cerebral, and deeply human, Beyond Plain Sight is a gripping cyber-conspiracy thriller about trust, power, and the cost of seeking the truth when the truth no longer wants to be found.

    A woman appears on the streets of Shanghai. She has thousands of cuts – and is screaming for Inspector Danilov… 
    Days later, the woman is dead. But another body is left waiting for the Inspector. Someone is playing with Danilov… someone prepared to kill, just to get their message across. 
    At first, the victims seem unconnected. But with each body bringing a new message for Danilov, he knows this is a riddle especially designed for him. 
    As more bodies start appearing, time is running out to solve the deadly puzzle… 
    Haunted by the past and riven with tension, The Murder Game is hair-raising and unputdownable, perfect for fans of Philip Kerr and David Young. 
    M J Lee has spent most of his adult life writing. As a university researcher in history, as a social worker with Vietnamese refugees, as the creative director of an advertising agency. 
    He has lived in London, Hong Kong, Taipei, Singapore, Bangkok and Shanghai. While working in Shanghai, he loved walking through the old quarters of that amazing city, developing the idea behind a series of crime novels featuring Inspector Pyotr Danilov, set in the 1920s.

    You never forget your first corpse. For former child star Jarrod Jarvis, that discovery was twenty-plus years ago, and a lot has happened since he solved a string of real-life Hollywood murders. Now Jarrod lives in Palm Springs where he writes and directs local theatre, while quietly grieving the loss of his partner, police detective Charlie. 
     
     
     
    Jarrod hasn't disclosed much about his sleuthing past to his daughter, Liv, who just earned a degree in criminal justice. There's been distance between them since Charlie's death, and Jarrod's unsure how to bridge the gap. Liv, meanwhile, has put her career on hold in order to help her filmmaker boyfriend, Zel. His new documentary idea is to track down the surrogate who gave birth to Liv. Skeptical and annoyed by Zel, Liv goes to confront him at his apartment. But there's no need to break things off—because someone has bludgeoned Zel to death. 
     
     
     
    Jarrod rushes to Liv's aid, surprising his daughter with his ease around a crime scene. Another shock is quite how many people had motive to finish Zel off—including a Russian film professor, a former First Lady, and a sexy Secret Service agent. Together, Liv and Jarrod comb for clues, growing close again. But while there's nothing like murder to bring a family together, this father-daughter reunion may be short-lived as long as a killer is on the loose.

Now without a date and without his former policeman Dick Fraser (who left the force to buy a bakery), Hamish must find out who killed the beautiful new resident of Sutherland, and why, before the murderer strikes again....
