A Summer In Saint-Malo

Sinossi

A Summer in Saint-Malo is a story of intrigue and charged emotions, as the main character, Clara, encounters unexpected situations that will make her summer far less relaxing than she had hoped. 


The story, which begins with the appearance of a body in an elevator, moves through three different periods in Clara’s life: her late childhood, when the most talked about news story is the disappearance of children in the neighboring comarcas, few of whom reappear, and always with a strange mark on their wrists when they do; her young adulthood, when she visits Saint-Malo and embarks on an adventure that leaves her breathless; and finally the present, where, now an adult, she must confront those memories in order to figure out why she has encountered the body of an acquaintance in an elevator. 


Three key moments in Clara’s life, an unforgettable city on the coast, a mystery unsolved for years, and one single explanation for it all.

How Bad Things Can Get

Darcy Coates

It was supposed to be the party of the century: miles of idyllic white sand beaches, lush jungle foliage...and a dark legend nobody dreamed might be all too true. 
When an online influencer and several hundred of his most loyal fans land on Prosperity Island, the plan is simple: five days of elaborate games, drinking, and suntanned fun. 
A week in paradise should have been a welcome respite. The only survivor of an infamous cult, Ruth wants nothing more than to keep her head down and not draw attention. She's spent decades outrunning her blood-soaked childhood, and her identity is a closely held secret. 
But then the true history of the island is revealed…along with its sinister connection to Ruth's past. As guests go missing and games turn deadly, Ruth and the rest of the attendees are forced to question whether they've really been invited to paradise...or whether something much darker―and far bloodier―is waiting for them just beyond the bonfire's light.
