I know you did it. I know you killed them… Admitted to a remote psychiatric hospital, Sadie, a troubled teen and self-diagnosed psychic, believes she doesn’t need to be institutionalized. Not that it stops the medical staff from keeping her locked up under careful watch. As Sadie navigates the confines of her new surroundings, intense therapy sessions with a doctor she doesn’t trust, new medications, and the erratic personalities of the other residents, her special abilities begin to unveil a disturbing truth. Haunted by horrific premonitions of the murders of her fellow inpatients, she tries to ignore the supposed intrusive thoughts. But when a girl’s body is discovered, and the death is ruled as a suicide, Sadie knows in her gut it’s a lie. If she’s correct and her prophetic dreams are true, then someone plans to pick off the residents one by one. With time running out and no one willing to believe her, Sadie must trust her troubled mind with a determined resolve to discover who the killer is before she ends up their next victim. A perfect read for fans of Karen M. McManus, E. Lockhart, and Holly Jackson, this tense psychological thriller promises to keep you guessing until the very last page.Voir livre
Detective Griessel must solve a cold case to stop a shooter in this thriller from the acclaimed South African author. Two police officers have been shot, and the Cape Town homicide department has received emails from the shooter alleging the cover-up of an unsolved murder. If the cold case isn’t reopened immediately, the shooter’s carnage will continue. Now Det. Capt. Benny Griessel is out to solve the crime in question: the murder of an ambitious lawyer stabbed to death in her luxury apartment. Unfortunately, there’s no apparent motive, forensic evidence, or leads. As Griessel races to piece together an investigation with nothing to go on and his colleague, Capt. Mbali Kaleni, attempts to locate the shooter, a third cop becomes the victim of another barrage of bullets. The shooter is growing bolder by the day, and it’s only a matter of time before Griessel ends up in his sights . . . “What makes Meyer such a national treasure—and as good as anyone in the world—is that even if you have no knowledge or interest in South Africa’s history or present, his books are compelling page-turners.” —The Times (London) “Superior prose and characterization . . . reminiscent of Peter Lovesey at his twistiest.” —Publishers Weekly “Sleekly done crime fiction layered with the cultural complexities of the new South Africa.” —BooklistVoir livre
