Sinopse

A businessman is found dead—tied to a bed in an upscale hotel—and an Iceland police sergeant investigates: “This procedural series [is] a standout” (Kirkus Reviews).   When Sgt. Gunnhildur Gísladóttir of the local police force is called in to investigate the death of a man found tied to a bed in one of Reykjavík’s nicest hotels, she finds no sign of criminal activity—but suspects there may be more to this fatality than meets the eye. Could the death of the ship owner be related to a local gangster’s recent return to Iceland after many years abroad?   What begins as a straightforward case for Gunnhildur soon explodes into a dangerous investigation, involving a discreet society that ruthless men will go to violent extremes to keep secret, in this “solid police procedural with some genuinely rewarding surprises” (Booklist).

    Twenty years ago she was a cult leader's innocent daughter and he was an undercover agent who broke her heart and destroyed her life. Now he's back... 
    ASAC Steve (Mac) McKenzie is out to prove himself by leading a task force investigating a series of murders in the heart of Washington, DC. His undercover work in an antigovernment compound twenty years earlier is related--as is the sweet, innocent girl he befriended back then. Now that girl is a beautiful woman, and she has something to hide.  
    Tess Fallon spent a lifetime trying to outrun her family's brand of bigotry, but someone is threatening her anonymity by using the anniversary of her father's death to carry out evil crimes and she's terrified her younger brother is involved. She sets out to find the truth and comes face-to-face with a man she once idolized, a man she thought long dead. As the crimes escalate it becomes obvious the killer has an agenda, and Tess and Mac are running out of time to stop him.  
    Will the perpetrator use a decades-old dream of revolution to attack the federal government? And will the fact that Tess and Mac have fallen hard for each other give a cold-hearted killer the power to destroy them both?

    TERRIFIED... 
    It was supposed to be a harmless camping trip. Six wayward teenagers who'd run into trouble with the law, and their court-appointed guardians, Sara and Martin Randhurst. Three nights on a small, deserted island off of Michigan's upper peninsula. A time to bond, to learn, to heal. 
    Then Martin told a campfire story about the island's history. Of the old civil war prison hidden in there, and the starving confederate soldiers who resorted to cannibalism to stay alive. Everyone thought it was funny. They even laughed when Martin pretended to be dragged off into the woods. 
    But Martin didn't come back. And neither did Sara when she went in search of him. 
    Then the laughter stopped. 
    ...TO DEATH 
    The group soon began to realize that this deserted island wasn't so deserted after all. And perhaps Martin's ridiculous story had more truth to it than anyone thought. 
    What's the most horrifying thing you can imagine? 
    This is a hundred times worse... 
    TRAPPED by Jack KilbornIt starts where other horror ends  
    A Word of Warning 
    This is the long-awaited follow-up to AFRAID, one of the most horrifying books ever written. 
    Originally scheduled to be released in paperback in 2010, the publisher read the first version of the manuscript and refused to release it. The author made extensive changes, rewriting much of the story. The publisher still refused. 
    This is a disturbing, terrifying book. You may think you're brave enough to handle it. But you're probably not...
