  Two billion people are about to die… and they’re the lucky ones. 
  When a man in a hospital gown jumps to his death from the Western Wall in Israel, the authorities think it’s just another victim of Jerusalem Syndrome: a religious psychosis triggered by a visit to the holy city. 
  But when a second victim ritually disembowels himself, it’s the sign of much worse to come. Thanatos — a fanatical group dedicated to the destruction of the world — is on the move again. 
  The only ones who can stop them are ex-Israeli military psychologist, Oxford professor, and religious expert Morgan Sierra; and Jake Timber, agent of ARKANE, the British agency tasked with investigating — and sometimes saving the world from — the supernatural. 
  Last time, Morgan and Jake worked together to stop Thanatos from bringing about a dark version of Pentecost. This time, Thanatos is mixing science with sacrilege — combining the Devil’s Bible with mind-control technology to murder a quarter of the human race. 
  Together, Morgan and Jake will travel from the hallowed halls of Oxford, to the labs of a biotech company with a dark agenda, to a chapel made of human bones. They’ll go anywhere, do anything, to stop Thanatos. 
  But they have to hurry. 
  Thanatos is on the rise. Apocalypse is at the gates. And the only way to save a quarter of the world is for Morgan to uncover the secrets of her past… at the cost of her own future. Death awaits in a Crypt of Bone. 
  Crypt of Bone is book 2 in the ARKANE thriller series but it can be listened to as a stand-alone story.

  On the surface, Violet Lane is the prettiest street in town—neat hedgerows, pastel-painted houses, and neighbours who always smile. But behind the front doors, secrets fester in silence. 
  When beloved local teacher Eleanor Hayes is found dead in her sitting room, the police are quick to suspect a break-in gone wrong. But Detective Clara Warren isn’t convinced. The crime scene is too neat, the timeline too tidy—and everyone on Violet Lane seems to have something to hide. 
  As Clara digs deeper, she uncovers a web of grudges, betrayals, and whispered affairs that stretch far beyond the lane itself. And when another body is discovered, it becomes chillingly clear: someone on Violet Lane will kill to protect the truth. 
  Atmospheric, twist-filled, and impossible to put down, Murder on Violet Lane proves that even the prettiest streets can hide the darkest crimes.

  NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN, THE SUNDAY TIMES, AND THE FINANCIAL TIMES 
   
   
   
  A searing debut set in a modern India simmering with the tension of growing religious intolerance 
   
   
   
  Teetapur, an unassuming village just a few hours outside of bustling Delhi, is famous for nothing—until one of its children, eight-year-old Munia, is found dead, hanging from the branch of a Jamun tree. 
   
   
   
  In the largely Hindu village, suspicion quickly falls on an itinerant Muslim man, Mansoor. Suspicion ignites like wildfire, fueled by religious tensions that simmer beneath the surface. 
   
   
   
  The responsibility of uncovering the elusive truth—and prevent the lynching of the prime suspect—now rests on the weary shoulders of Sub-Inspector Ombir Singh. With only one other officer beneath him, and just a single working revolver between them, can he bring justice to a grieving father and an angry village—or will Teetapur demand vengeance instead? 
   
   
   
  Offering listeners a gripping mystery and a sweeping state-of-the-nation saga, Black River stands as a searing critique of modern India, weaving an intricate narrative that captures the essence of a nation grappling with its own complexities and contradictions.
