Sinossi

A depressed town in the middle of nowhere. A cowed sixteen-year-old struggling to fit in at a new school. A plan for violent retribution against those who have made his life a misery.

But before Grover Tench can follow through with his vengeful intentions, his world is thrown into disarray thanks to a chance encounter with Kevin Zhu – private school kid, borderline genius, and unlike anyone he has ever met. Kevin favors creativity over carnage, brainpower over bloodshed, and he convinces Grover there might be a better way.

Together the two teenage outcasts will devise a strategy to fight back against their oppressors in a way that will have the whole world talking. They soon discover that with a little bit of ambition and a lot of ingenuity, there are no limits to what they can accomplish.

But can they really get away with something so audacious? Or are they in way over their heads?

    From one sticky situation to another prickly one, Jon and Lina are back at it—stronger than ever.

    With Alanna’s fate hanging in the balance and Jon and Lina’s relationship still a work in progress, they’ll discover that love, like their investigations, is a gamble—sometimes, you have to play to win.

    Something is troubling Inspector Henry Cutter. Sergeant Gideon Bliss is accustomed to his ill-tempered outbursts, but lately the inspector has grown silent and withdrawn. Then, the murders begin. The first to die is the elderly Sir Aneurin Considine, a decorated but obscure civil servant who long ago retired to tend his orchids. If the motive for his killing is a mystery, the manner of his death is more bewildering still. The victims that follow suffer similar fates, their deaths gruesome but immaculately orchestrated. The murderer comes and goes like a ghost, leaving only carefully considered traces. As the hunt for this implacable adversary mounts, the inspector's gloom deepens, and to Sergeant Bliss, his methods seem as mystifying as the crimes themselves. 
     
     
     
    Why is he digging through dusty archives while the murderer stalks further victims? And as hints of past wrongdoing emerge—and with them the faint promise of a motive—why does Cutter seem haunted by some long-ago failing of his own? To find the answers, the meek and hapless sergeant must step out of the inspector's shadow. Aided by Octavia Hillingdon, a steely and resourceful journalist, Bliss will uncover truths that test his deepest beliefs. 
     
     
     
    Hypnotic and twisty, The Naming of the Birds will leave you questioning what matters most—solving a case or serving justice.

    Jane, Carly and Rose Savage are savage by name, savage by nature. 
    Having lost their mum too young, and with a bedridden father too ill to work, the sisters learnt early to stand on their own two feet. 
    The family's flat in the rough streets of Glasgow's Haghill is their fortress, but when Carly's ex-boyfriend Cole Alexander is released from prison, trouble soon comes knocking at their door. The Alexanders have beef with the Savages, so the girls call for back up in the shape of their uncle Eddie and his two gorgeous but dangerous sons, Harry and Dean. 
    As a turf war breaks out, the Savage sisters have choices to make. Stick to the straight and narrow or fight for what they deserve? And when the vicious girl gang Jane used to lead, the Unbeatable Bitches, are thrown into the mix, their minds might be made up for them. Because once a Savage always a Savage, and when the chips are down, there's no one more deadly than a Savage sister.
