  When will the voices stop? The murder of professional astrologer Andrew Gorman seems a straightforward case for DCI Kenny Murrain – a tragic death resulting from an interrupted burglary. But when Gareth Clayburn, assistant to stage medium Justin Bannerman, is found dead in identical circumstances, Murrain begins to suspect the murders are linked. Meanwhile, Geoff Nolan, television personality and professor of psychology, is developing a new series exploring the psychology of the paranormal. Starting with Bannerman's work as a supposed spiritualist. When Murrain receives an unexpected approach from the security services, he realises that the links between the killings lie deep in Murrain's own past and his own paranormal gifts. After days of rain and with floodwaters rising. Murrain finds himself in a race against time to prevent further deaths. In a shattering climax at Nolan's riverside home, Murrain finally comes face to face with an adversary who shares his remarkable gifts, as the book races to its dramatic and potentially tragic climax.

With a career-ending injury, Olympic kickboxer Sheila Stone is forced back to her small hometown, where her older sister, the local Sheriff, offers her a spot on the police force. Sheila, struggling to face past demons, must draw on her fighting skills when a deadly serial killer surfaces, pitting her against an opponent unlike she’s ever encountered….

  SILENT GIRL (A Sheila Stone Suspense Thriller—Book 1) is Book #1 in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller The Perfect Wife (a free download) has received over 20,000 five star reviews.
  With her Olympic dreams in tatters, Sheila, 28, struggles to find her place back home.

But when her sister persuades her to join the local police force, Sheila’s life and career start anew.
  As she hunts serial killers, Sheila notices clues that others miss and offers a perspective that no one else has. She realizes she has a talent outside of fighting, and that she has a chance to embrace a new life in Salt Lake—a life outside the ring.
  This is a different kind of ring, though. Sheila quickly realizes that to survive, she will need more than just her strength—she’ll need a brilliance to match that of even the most diabolical killer.
  Can Sheila win this match? Or will she finally lose it all?

  'Justice is a matter of perspective.'
  
  Based on the infamous Panama scandals of 1893, one of the most notorious events of corruption in France's history, The Crystal Stopper is a thrilling mystery featuring Maurice Leblanc's iconic gentleman thief, Arsène Lupin.
  
  Arsène, our charming and clever protagonist who sits on the wrong side of the law, becomes inadvertently involved in a damning murder case when his two colleagues are arrested on suspicion of killing Deputy Daubrecq, a corrupt politician, during a burglary. In an attempt to clear their names and get to the truth of what happened, Lupin seeks a crystal stopper which was once in Daubrecq's possession and holds enough political secrets to bring absolute anarchy. What ensues is a thrilling race against time full of unexpected twists and unnerving deception, as Lupin tries to get to the stopper before it's too late. This audiobook edition is skilfully brought to life by Rupert Degas.
  Maurice Leblanc (1864 – 1941) was a French journalist, novelist and short story writer. He was primarily known for inventing the fictional thief Arsène Lupin, often considered the French counterpart to Sherlock Holmes.
