Beschreibung

Jack Slaughter is an agent, but there’s nothing secret about him. He is a force to be reckoned with.
 
His new assignment is an encore performance. Five years earlier, Jack was sent to London to protect Queen Sophia from assassination. In the process they’d fallen in love, but restrained themselves. She was the queen, and he was a lone killer.
 
Now he must go back, save Sophia from her insane brother, Prince Laurence, who may have the entire military behind him.
 
Jack against the British Army. Sounds like a fair fight to him. And he's ready to do whatever it takes to get the job done.

    Tatiana Botnari's life in Moldova is a daily struggle. A single mother fighting to support her young son in a country crumbling around her, she never asked for the gift—or curse—of clairvoyant dreams. But when her visions reveal a serial madman preying on young children, and the police dismiss her as delusional, this unlikely hero must take matters into her own hands. 
    Enter Raymond Fischer, a former FBI Behaviorist and legendary serial profiler who fled to self-imposed exile in Soroca after his daughter's tragic death. Haunted by his past, with a bottle in his fist and a grudge on his shoulder, Fischer is the last person anyone would call for help. But Tatiana's desperate plea pulls him back into the darkness he's been running from. 
    Together with local reporter Aleksandr Radu, this woman protagonist leads a manhunt that becomes the largest in Moldova's history. As they close in on the elusive Bogeyman of Bessarabia, the investigation spirals into a psychological thriller that will test them all. 
    Can Fischer suppress his inner demons before they consume him? Will Tatiana's horrifying visions cause her to lose her mind? In this suspense and horror tale with unexpected moments of dark humor, three broken souls must hunt a monster—before he claims his next victim. 
    A gripping thriller set in 2026. Perfect for fans of psychological thriller books, YA fantasy fiction with horror elements, and suspense with humor that keeps you turning pages late into the night.

    In the land of Daoistan, freedom has arrived at last. The revolution liberated all, then enslaved everyone, and now it was liberating them again by allowing people to own credit cards. And a man with credit is a man who has the world at his fingertips, or at least a trip into town where the temptations are pretty much as they have always been, only more people can afford them.  
                   ADAM’S FRANCHISE is a story about Adam and his Franchise. He is not quite sure what that means, but he is a modern man, embracing the economic miracle and taking up a gift shop franchise at a new hotel. There he will sell much the same things that he always sold: baskets, pots, cultural artefacts of various kinds, except at a modern price to foreigners, should they ever care to come to the hotel. The desert that he lives in is not the most beautiful of places, policed by Omar who has to learn how to get out of his hammock, fuelled by Castrol who just loves the smell of petrol and the visions it gives him, and terrorised by nomads and Adam’s volatile brothers-in-law. But if it ever rids itself of the last vestiges of barbarism, both pre-revolutionary and revolutionary, as epitomised by Adam’s indolent, lustful, embittered, rapacious, cynical, superstitious father, Saleem, then harmony – both spiritual and economic –might assert itself. Or maybe, just air-conditioning. 
                   Daoistan exists everywhere, or has done at some time or other. And there have been many Adams.
