Sinopsis

Ashley Smith, Studentin der Kunstgeschichte aus Sacramento, Kalifornien, wollte die Weihnachtstage während ihres Auslandsjahrs in London eigentlich allein verbringen. Erst die kurzfristige Einladung ihrer Kommilitonin Emma Chapman führt sie nach Starvewood Hall, dem Landsitz der Familie in Clevemoor in den Cotswolds. Ashley ist fasziniert von dem festlich geschmückten Herrenhaus, dem Feuer im Kamin, den vielen Gästen, dem guten Essen – und auch von Emmas attraktivem Bruder. Doch gegen Adam ermittelt die örtliche Polizei: Er soll ein Mädchen brutal ermordet haben. Außerdem treibt ein mysteriöser Fremder sein Unwesen in dem Wald zwischen Starvewood Hall und dem örtlichen Pub … Mehr als dreißig Jahre später werden die Ereignisse jener schrecklichen Festtage wieder aufgerollt: Was 1989 in einem kleinen englischen Dorf begann, findet viele Weihnachten später sein grausames Ende in New York.

    Description:
    When Mia's boyfriend Ash vanishes, he leaves behind a chilling set of rules and a monthly deposit of $13,750. All she has to do is stay inside their luxurious villa. Simple, right? But the rules are terrifyingly specific: don't eat food with red eyes, don't wear the red fur in the closet, don't sleep on the bed if it bleeds. And a final, ominous warning: trust your roommates, but not completely. Mia dismisses it as a bizarre joke—until she learns Ash died the day before he was with her. Now, trapped within the villa's walls with her eerily compliant roommates—Scarlett, Mona, and Luna—Mia realizes the rules are a matter of life and death. A plate with human eyes appears at her door, and the line between reality and nightmare blurs. To survive and uncover the truth behind Ash's death, Mia must navigate a web of deception, supernatural horror, and the sinister secrets hidden in the very home meant to be her gilded cage. Can she follow the rules long enough to escape, or will breaking one be her last mistake?

    Containing many realistic details based on Childers' own sailing trips along the German North Sea coast, the book is the retelling of a yachting expedition in the early 20th century combined with an adventurous spy story.It was one of the early invasion novels which predicted war with Germany and called for British preparedness. The plot involves the uncovering of secret German preparations for an invasion of the United Kingdom. It is often called the first modern spy novel, although others are as well, it was certainly very influential in the genre and for its time.The book enjoyed immense popularity in the years before World War I and was extremely influential. Winston Churchill later credited it as a major reason that the Admiralty decided to establish naval bases at Invergordon, the Firth of Forth and Scapa Flow. (Summary from Wikipedia)

    From the “Queen of Canadian crime fiction” (Winnipeg Free Press) comes the 16th instalment of the much-loved Joanne Kilbourn series. 
    The latest novel in the Joanne Kilbourn Shreve series opens in the month of May, a time of beginnings when all things seem possible. Joanne’s husband, Zack, recently elected mayor of Regina, is optimistic that he can garner the public support necessary to make Regina a city that works — not just for the few, but for the many. Their oldest son Peter is marrying Maisie Crawford, a woman as clever and forthright as she is lovely. Their lakeside wedding is a dream come true, but when a former lover of a member of the bridal party shows up, the dream becomes a nightmare. Before the bride's bouquet has wilted, there's an act of sickening cruelty; soon afterwards, there’s a murder. 
    Devastated, Joanne and Zack search for answers. As it becomes increasingly unclear whether political agendas, shattered romance, or a secret buried deep in the past have motivated the crimes, the loyalties of the Shreve family are tested. A gripping mystery with a social conscience, this is a novel of high stakes and innocence lost.
