Sinopse

A dark, suspenseful thriller with pitch-black humour, in which a series of grisly murders in the week of 31 October take place in the 'Halloween town' of Little Horton – a community famed throughout the Midwest for celebrating the festival with gusto. Perfect for fans of Ronald Malfi and Rachel Harrison.
In one Halloween obsessed Midwestern town, everyone's on red alert after a local politician goes missing. Little do they know it's only the beginning.
It's been close to twenty years since forensic pathologist Dolores Hawthorne left her hometown of Little Horton, Wisconsin. The town is famous for its Halloween celebrations, but also its history of violent deaths linked to the holiday. To Dolores, it's the place she fled, family, bad memories, and all. Until the FBI calls to tell her that her father--the former mayor turned US Senator--is missing under mysterious circumstances.
Some people count to ten to wake up from a nightmare. Dolores always counts the bones of her head instead: sphenoid, frontal, lacrimal. But no matter how many times she counts them, it doesn't change the fact that her father is missing, that his final words of warning to her were to trust no one, and that now, the rest of her family is giving Dolores a chilling welcome. With Halloween fast approaching, Dolores must face the past she left behind before it's too late.

    🐝 When the body of a prominent land developer is found in the apiary of Hazel's Homestead Honey, beekeeper Hazel Bloom finds herself in a sticky situation. The victim, who was trying to buy up local farms for a controversial resort, died from a suspiciously precise allergic reaction—not from bee stings, but from a peanut-laced honey sample meant for Hazel. With the police buzzing around her farm and her business on the verge of collapse, Hazel must use her knowledge of local botany and human nature to find the real killer. With help from her loyal border collie, Clover, and an unexpected alliance with a retired forensic botanist, Hazel uncovers a hive of secrets among her fellow farmers and townspeople. From contaminated crops and sabotaged hives to long-buried family feuds, the truth is as complex as her bees' honeycomb. Can Hazel solve the case before the killer delivers another fatal sting?

    Fresh off investigating the ambush murders of two police officers, Colorado Bureau of Investigation Agent, Buck Taylor and his team are called upon to find a missing journalist, in a case that leads to child porn, and murder, in the much anticipated fourth “Crime” novel.  
    She was about to thank the Good Samaritan when he reached a huge hand behind her head and in one swift move slammed her forehead into the steering wheel. The blow was so hard that it cracked the top of the steering wheel. It took two more blows to knock her out. 
    He put the car in gear and, checking once more up and down the highway, pushed the car past the end of the guardrail and stopped it at the edge of the drop-off. The reservoir was still frozen, but he hoped that enough of the thaw had occurred to make the ice thin enough so the car would crash right through it. He was confident that the snowfall that was underway would cover the hole in the ice. 
    With one last look up and down the empty highway, he closed the door, walked behind the car and gave it a shove. With a grinding of metal against rock, the car bounced over the edge and rolled down the side of the reservoir, crashing into the ice with a loud bang, and after a second’s hesitation, broke through the ice and disappeared beneath the surface. He stood on the shoulder of the road and watched until the taillights blinked off.

    When six childhood friends get together for their annual girl's weekend at the beach in Port Aransas, none could have believed it would be for the very last time. Nina Evans had been saddled with organizing the weekend each year, pulling five of her oldest friends together for a few nights of fun and reminiscing, the one time a year they saw each other. Each year was much the same—laughter, dancing, and lots of drinking. This time was no different. That is, until Jones walked out of the dance club with a stranger. 
     
     
     
    Detective Quinn Stewart spends her days on Beach Patrol, living simply on the island after getting burned out on crime and booze while working in Corpus Christi. The pace was slower, murder was rare, and she lived stress-free. That changed on a Friday night in late May. 
     
     
     
    When the women leave and head back to their homes and families, Nina is left to deal with Jones's death alone. She finds herself drawn to the detective as details emerge on the double life Jones led, making Nina realize, despite a lifelong friendship, she never really knew Jones. As the case unravels, Nina finds herself embroiled in the middle of it. The one constant—Quinn Stewart's unwavering commitment to finding the truth . . . and keeping her safe.

It wrecked her brother, too, leading to lockup after lockup, as he pleads with Maeve to help get her out. And it wrecked her mom most of all, who in her dying days can think of nothing else.
    
    Maeve though she got away from it all when she transferred to Quantico and made a career for herself.
    
    But the past has a way of calling, of bringing back dark and unresolved memories. And Maeve has stepped right back into, ready, this time, to wrestle her darkest demons while she hunts down new serial killers….
