Sinopse

A forensic pathologist discovers a vicious killer loose on a remote Scottish isle in this British thriller by “one of the country’s best crime writers” (Sunday Express).Dr. David Hunter should be at home in London with the woman he loves. Instead, as a favor to a beleaguered colleague, he’s on the remote Hebridean island of Runa to inspect a grisly discovery. David is shocked by what he finds: a body almost totally incinerated except for the feet and a single hand. The local police are certain it’s an accidental death, but David is not convinced.After examining the scorched remains, it’s clear to David that this was no accident—it was murder. But as the small, isolated community considers the enormity of David’s findings, a catastrophic storm hits the island. The power goes down, communication with the mainland is cut off, and then the killing begins in earnest . . .

    Meet Jake Bendel, a civil engineer in the state of California. Tired of slogging through the infamous LA traffic to get to and from work, he and a team of experts have designed a roadway system for self-driving cars - negating thousands of traffic-related deaths each year and reducing commute times to minutes instead of hours. The elation stops when a Syrian terrorist group weaponizes the system and devises a scheme to kill off thousands of Americans in one day. A brilliant psychopath and the leader of the cell, Viktor, hears the voices of both his deceased mother and his god, who influence his every move.  
    While he and his brothers ruthlessly annihilate Americans, all in the name of Allah, Viktor plants evidence and sways the public into convicting Jake of these horrendous crimes against humanity. One rogue FBI agent believes Jake is innocent. The two discover a mole buried deep inside the FBI and go off the grid to stop Viktor from attacking thousands of innocent drivers in what promises to be the mother of all terror. Can they stop him in time? 
    A gripping tale from the first page to the last, Civil Terror: Gridlock will pull you to the edge of your seat as your blood pressure skyrockets and you are a taken along a journey that twists and turns its way to the finish line.

    An abandoned church in a village set in time—the ideal setting for murder. Detective Inspector Tremayne and his sergeant, Clare Yarwood, are hard pushed to solve the crime and to stay alive. 
     
     
     
    'Do you believe in spontaneous human combustion?' Detective Inspector Keith Tremayne asked. 
     
     
     
    'Not me. I've read about it. Who hasn't?' Sergeant Clare Yarwood answered. 
     
     
     
    'I haven't,' Tremayne replied which did not surprise his young sergeant. In the months they had been together, she had come to realize that he was a man who had little interest in the world. A cigarette in his mouth, a beer in his hand, and a murder to solve was about the happiest she ever saw him, and even then, he could hardly be regarded as one of life's most sociable. And as for reading? The occasional police report, an early morning newspaper, the back pages for the racing results. 
     
     
     
    Hardly the ideal attributes for a trip into the murky world of paganism and its rituals, but that's where they were heading and it was going to get dangerous, very dangerous.

    But solidarity can’t insure against tragedy, and when life tests the boys to their limits, slowly the four choose different paths as they take the step into adulthood.  
    Darren has always been the one to take chances, with a dangerous side that's a blessing and a curse. As the years pass by, Darren’s schemes and mistakes start to weigh heavily on his friends.
