Sinopse

In a world where motherhood can be a crime, a woman risks everything to defy those in power . . . Ten years after the world took drastic action to rein in overpopulation, Elspeth suspects she is pregnant—illegally—after a brief, alcohol-fuelled fling with Nick. Even procuring a test to confirm it would be risky. As Elspeth tries desperately to keep her condition hidden from the authorities, a female detective becomes convinced something illicit is going on—and tries to resuscitate her own troubled career by pursuing this lawbreaker. But behind the scenes, two people are determined to come to Elspeth’s aid. One is someone close to her who has a secret. The other is someone she would never have expected. Now, as danger closes in, how far will they go to keep Elspeth—and her unborn baby—safe?

    What if your lifelong curse is the only thing keeping you alive? Abandoned at birth, life has always been a battle for Jane Walker. She and her best friend, Sadie, spent years fighting to survive Vancouver's cutthroat underbelly. That would have been tough enough without Jane's mysterious afflictions: an intricate pattern of blood-red birthmarks that snake around her body and vivid, heart-wrenching nightmares that feel so real she wakes up screaming.  
    After she meets the first man who isn't repulsed by her birthmarks, Jane thinks she might finally have a chance at happiness. Her belief seems confirmed as the birthmarks she's spent her life so ashamed of magically begin to disappear. Yet, the quicker her scarlet marks vanish, the more lucid and disturbing Jane's nightmares become—until it's impossible to discern her dreams from reality, and Jane comes to a horrifying realization:  
    The nightmares that have plagued her since childhood are actually visions of real people being stalked by a deadly killer. And all this time, her birthmarks have been the only things protecting her from becoming his next victim.  
    Blood Mark is the first in a brand-new paranormal thriller series by JP McLean, author of The Gift Legacy series and whose writing has been described as ". . . deftly crafted, impressively original, and inherently compelling from first page to last."

    Does Lieutenant Vera Backland lust for her suspect? Has she plotted revenge for her lover? 
    Go on a journey through this story to find out who might've been the actual killer and who might've been manipulated to think that they're the murderer. 
    On the night of January 20, Lieutenant Vera Backland visits her favorite bar and sees a man who attracts her in an unusual way. A few hours later she visits a strange crime scene, in Sleepy Hollow. But Vera is not at her best; the disappearance of someone close to her has wreaked havoc on her psyche and she knows she's not one hundred percent ready to lead the new Complex Crimes Bureau in New York City. 
    Along with her partner Luke Faller, she must find the murderer before he continues to claim more victims, guided by the play The Divine Comedy and by the classification he has made of sinners. 
    Vera doubts everything and everyone. Even from herself, and for this she asks for help from her psychiatrist Alan Holt and her former tutor Clarence Perkins. She must not only understand the killer's mind but her own. With a vast criminal imagination and a new erotic imagination, Vera must come to terms with the shadows she carries before the shadows consume her.

    🍩 Donut shop owner Daisy Delight is preparing for the annual Maple Falls Donut Festival when her world turns upside down. The town's most hated food critic is found face-down in a display of her signature maple-bacon donuts, and the murder weapon appears to be one of her own baking tools. With the police focused solely on her kitchen, Daisy must take investigation into her own flour-dusted hands. Teaming up with her quirky baking staff and a handsome regular customer who happens to be a retired detective, Daisy follows a trail of clues as twisted as her famous crullers. From poisoned sprinkles to sabotaged fryers, every donut holds a potential clue. But as Daisy gets closer to uncovering the truth, she discovers the killer has a taste for revenge—and she might be the next treat on their deadly menu. In a town where everyone has a secret recipe, some secrets are worth killing for.
