Beschreibung

Relocated across the country, Stephen Brunt and his family spend their first night in a dark, unwelcoming pub.
 
It seems like nobody is ready to welcome them to their new home town except for Carson, Mr. Knills's servant from one house over. After Knills invites them over for a quiet drink, the Stephen and his family learn that the man's wife was kidnapped one dreadful night, never to be heard from again.
 
A private detective had failed to unearth anything, and Knills pleads Stephen to help him. Pockets now full of money, he sets out to find out what happened. But soon, things take a turn for the worse, and Stephen himself becomes a suspect for a crime he didn't commit.
 
With seemingly nobody to trust, Stephen finds himself in a race against time, and odds are not in his favor. Can he piece together the puzzle, find the kidnapper and save himself?

    THE TRUTH WON'T STAY BURIED. 
     
     
     
    News that the body of a recently murdered prostitute—stabbed repeatedly and dumped on Georgia's Shelter Island—has been identified as Shannon Randall stuns the FBI, particularly special agent Dorsey Collins. Twenty-four years ago, nineteen-year-old Eric Louis Beale was convicted and later executed for Shannon's murder—and the agent in charge of the case was Dorsey's father. Now Dorsey is determined to find out where her father's investigation went wrong, what part he played in the death of an innocent man, and where Shannon has been all this time. 
     
     
     
    The heat is on FBI special agent Andrew Shields to discover what happened to Shannon on that night decades ago—to find out who killed her and why. Dorsey shadows Andrew's every investigative move, hoping to redeem her father's reputation and capture a cunning killer. Together, Dorsey and Andrew unravel a shocking mystery that will shatter one family and rock an entire town.

    It’s Spring Break and a trio of California college kids head out, not to the beach but to the mountains of New Mexico, where they plan on a week of snowboarding, beer, and fun. But the instructions to reach their vacation rental are less than precise and it’s late and snowy when they arrive at Taos Ski Valley. They’re surprised to find an older couple in the cabin they believed to be theirs but hey, Casey Hardwick, the ringleader of the group, is not known for reading directions or getting all the facts. Maybe the place is actually a B&B. They troop inside and are shown to a bedroom. 
    Days later, Casey’s sister is calling the only friend she knows in Taos—Kelly Sweet—hoping to get word to her brother that their mother’s condition has worsened and she doesn’t have long to live. No one has heard from Casey, and she urgently needs to reach him. Samantha and Kelly are together when the call comes, and the mystery only deepens once they talk to Sheriff Evan Richards. Yes, the family reported the missing boys and he investigated. He found no evidence that they’d ever arrived. His theory is that the boys changed their plans at the last minute and are living it up somewhere else. 
    But Sam has a bad feeling about it. Without the help of law enforcement, will she and Kelly figure out how the boys disappeared? And can they find the boys and get Casey home before it’s too late to see his mother again? Their only clues seem to come from the mysterious book of runes.

    In The Wager Series, Eddie and his uncle, a former Chicago homicide detective, solve murders for the mob’s gambling boss. With the assistance of the mob’s underworld insight, Eddie and his uncle approach murder from a unique perspective.  
    “Much like the previous outings in this series, Farrell’s foray into the interconnected worlds of gambling and organized crime yields a story full of narrative crackle and well-drawn characters…” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review of Wager Smart).  
    Eddie’s own gambling problem generates a narrative that provides a cautionary view of gambling that the reader can take to the bank. The award winning series won’t guarantee a winning day at the windows, but it will guarantee a “high-stakes, adrenaline-fueled ride…” —Indies Today Book Reviews.

    Professional organizer Crystal Ward has nothing against publicity—as long as it's the truth. But a local reporter is putting Crys in the headlines for her role in solving crimes, not clearing out clutter. Now she's receiving requests for services that aren't on her website, and the spotlight is wearing on her family. 
     
     
     
    At least something good comes out of the unwelcome attention: Crys reconnects with an old friend, Eva, who hires her to sort through historical documents found in a Victorian house she wants to flip. Then a dead body turns up in the parlor, and Eva confesses she's been receiving threatening notes. 
     
     
     
    Crys knows to draw the line on the services she's willing to provide, but this is about friendship, not business. With the reporter hot on her trail, Crys tries to maintain a low profile as she sorts out the secrets. But good intentions aren't enough. Will this client once again lure her into an appointment with a killer with no place to hide? 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
