Sir Robert's sister, Lady Beatrice Falder, owns Shoscombe, but it will revert to her late husband's brother when she dies.

Why does she just ride on by in her carriage?Why has Sir Robert become so wild-eyed lately?Why has he given his sister's dog away to a neighbourhood innkeeper?Why does he go to the old crypt at night, and who is that man whom he meets there?Why have burnt human bones been found in the furnace at Shoscombe?

  When a new serial killer strikes, the FBI, stumped, turns to its brilliant forensic examiner and entomologist, Fiona Red, with her unparalleled genius and ability to offer insights at crime scenes based on her insect expertise. When another victim turns up in a stretch of rural woods covered in unusual bugs, Fiona knows right away that something doesn’t add up. In this master game of wits, Fiona may have finally met her match.

  Fiona Red, a brilliant but quirky FBI loner, spends most of her time in the lab or at crime scenes. She comes from a family used to being around death and bodies, her parents having ran a funeral parlor, and she would have ran the family business if not for a tragedy in her past: her sister was abducted when she was a teenager, and never found.
  
  Fiona remains determined to crack her sister’s case. But in the meantime, as an FBI agent, she applies her brilliance to catching killers and cracking cases that no one else can, as bugs are the first visitors to dead bodies.
  
  With her FBI partner out in the field, Fiona expects to stay behind the scenes.
  
  But Fiona, obsessed with catching killers, takes it one step too far, and may just find herself in the crosshairs of a killer herself.

  For audio fans of C.J. Box, Craig Johnson, and Jon Krakauer — the 9th Patrick Flint novel, in which a killer acquitted at trial follows the family to the summit of Mount Rainier to finish what she started. 
  Dr. Patrick Flint has been training for Mount Rainier for two years. He finally goes in August 1978, roped to his friends Henry Sibley and Wes Braten. Back in Buffalo, the jury in Bella Crooke's murder trial returns a verdict: not guilty. Bella is acquitted. Bella is also immediately free, and she has a list. 
  The list starts with the Flint family. Perry is a freshman on the varsity football team trying to keep a girl who gives worm sandwiches from noticing that a senior cheerleader is pursuing him. Trish wants to apply to the University of Alaska Southern and her parents keep saying no. Someone in a blue Bronco is watching the house. Someone runs Trish down with a car. Someone kidnaps Perry. Someone locks the family in their burning house with the windows sealed shut and every exit blocked.

  The Hitman's Daughter - Mave...

  The Château du Ciel was once the destination for the rich and famous to play, drink and ski—complete with a private railway to shuttle those desiring extra privacy—now, however, the guests are few and far between. The New Year’s Eve party was supposed to hoist the rundown hotel back to its former status, until a massive blizzard hits, trapping the guests who’ve come to celebrate the grand hotel’s last hurrah. The circumstances might even be romantic, if the hotel wasn't reputed to be haunted. 
  When hotel employee Mave Michael finds the resident artist dead, and shortly thereafter hotel security finds Mave alone with the body, the reputation that Mave has fought long and hard to outrun comes back to haunt her. You see, her father is a notorious hitman who is serving multiple life sentences in prison. She has changed her name and location dozens of times, but he somehow manages to track her down—even sending her a postcard on the eve of her birthday, January 1st. She’s the perfect choice to frame for murder, and now the number one suspect. 
   
  Mave can no longer deny the lessons in survival her father taught her, and calls on that and her uncanny sixth-sense in “finding” lost objects to navigate the maze of the hotel. To save herself, she not only has to stop running from her own past, she must unearth the history of the hotel, its elite guests and buried secrets—one deadly sin at a time. 
   
  An homage to classic gothic horror, that proves that the ghosts of family and classism are alive and well.
