En route to an impromptu meeting with an old contact from her days in the Israeli Secret Service, Daria gets an unexpected and anonymous tipoff that she's about to walk into an ambush. Unsure who is after her, or why, she slips away from her followers and soon learns that she's been set up—and set up good. Someone has linked her to a much sought-after terrorist, and now all the resources of the U.S. intelligence community are being marshaled against her.As she tries to escape the ever-tightening snare laid out for her, someone else is using the operation against her as a distraction to hijack a very dangerous, highly guarded shipment. Now the only person who can keep this shipment from falling into terrorist hands is the one person they chose to set up as a diversion. Daria Gibron is many things—trigger-happy, resourceful, focused, and extremely dangerous —but the one thing she isn't is anybody's fool. Ice Cold Kill is an espionage spy thriller from Dana Haynes.

  Intrepid American newlywed Jane Wunderly learns that tigers aren’t the only dangers lurking in 1920s India, when a murder in a popular resort town threatens to destabilize the local government and undermine the resistance movement for Indian self-rule. … 
    
  Ooty, 1927: Accompanying Mr. Redvers on an assignment to Ootycamund to quell revolutionary rumblings, Jane finds there’s more than meets the eye to India’s Queen of Hill Stations. Ooty’s lush tea plantations and tranquil gardens barely conceal its secrets—scandalous affairs, political sabotage, and a mounting anti-colonial movement. Even Redvers intends to subvert his official mission in Ooty, by arranging a series of clandestine meetings with local resistance leaders. But it’s not until the shocking death of a British national that Jane and Redvers are truly drawn into Ooty’s deepest shadows. 
    
  Jane’s suspicions that the death is more than a tragic accident are soon confirmed, but word of a murder could stoke Ooty’s simmering tensions into a full boil. Navigating corrupt local officials, festering personal vendettas, and a complicated network of bureaucratic entanglements that lead to the top tiers of government, Jane and Redvers edge closer to the truth … and its deadly consequences. Someone is willing to spill blood to protect their interests, will Jane become just another of Ooty’s darkest secrets?

  When Bill and his sister Frances arrive at The Towers, the grand but oppressive country estate of their widowed friend Mabel Franklyn, they are immediately gripped by an unseen tension. The house seems to breathe with a malignant spirit — not of ghosts in the ordinary sense, but of something far deeper and more insidious: the psychic residue of guilt, repression, and spiritual decay. As the siblings navigate an atmosphere thick with dread and emotional disturbance, Bill begins to sense forces that defy reason — unseen presences born from the inner darkness of those who once inhabited these walls. 
  In The Damned, Algernon Blackwood — master of the supernatural and psychological horror — crafts a chilling meditation on unseen evil and the price of emotional corruption. Less a ghost story than a metaphysical haunting, this tale explores the thin boundary between human anguish and the cosmic unknown. 
  Narrated by Phil Thames, this audiobook immerses listeners in an atmosphere of elegant terror, where silence and suggestion carry more weight than any scream.

  Isla has fled the city for small-town Missouri in the wake of a painful and exhausting year. With her chronic anxiety at a fever pitch, the last thing she expects is to meet a genuine romantic prospect. And she doesn’t, but she does get a text from a man who seems to think he’s her husband. Obviously, a wrong number—except, when she points this out, the mystery texter sends back a picture of them, on their wedding day. Isla cautiously starts up a texting relationship with her maybe-hoax, maybe-husband Ewan, who claims to be reaching out from a few years into the future. Ewan knows Isla incredibly well and seems to love her exactly as she is, which she can hardly fathom. But he’s also grieving, because in the future, he and Isla are no longer together. Ewan is texting back through time to save her from a fate he won't share with her; all she can do to prevent that fate is to learn to be happy, now, in the body she has, with the mind she has. The only trouble is the steps she takes in that direction might be steps away from a future with Ewan. Melissa Baron’s time-crossed romance features a quintessentially endearing and brave protagonist and an engrossing plot that will keep you listening until its breathtaking finish.

  She promised she wouldn’t fall for her best friend's brother. But a summer in Italy might change everything… 
   
  Out of all her friends, Rose is the ‘single’ one. She isn’t lucky in love; in fact, she’s the opposite. So, when her best friend Katie decides to whisk her away for a few weeks of sun and relaxation, of course, she says yes. 
   
  There’s only one problem – they’re off to visit Katie’s brother, Thomas, at his magnificent Italian ranch. And Rose is petrified of horses. 
   
  Deep in the Tuscan countryside, Rose leaves her mundane accounting job behind and begins to settle into life on the ranch. It is just as beautiful as she expected, but she is shocked to discover how much Thomas has changed; the shy teenager she used to know has morphed into a handsome cowboy with a dazzling smile, and she knows she’s going to find it hard to keep her cool around him. 
   
  When Katie is unexpectedly called home for an emergency, Rose is left alone with Thomas. As she helps him care for a pregnant mare, she faces her fears and begins to see herself—and Thomas—in a new light. 
   
  But as her feelings deepen, Rose must decide if she’s ready to trust her heart again. Is Thomas as wonderful as he seems, or is she risking it all for another heartbreak?
