Sinopse

A thriller novel is a novel that uses suspense, excitement, apprehension and exhilaration to tell a story. Thriller novels have villains, suspense, and action in settings such as espionage, medicine, crime, politics, and high tech.

They often involve life and death situations and have high stakes, like the control of the world or the possibility of widespread death or destruction.

    Meet Hedy Hinterschott, a 17-year-old assassin-in-training, who has been groomed for the family business since birth. Despite growing up in a loving and supportive nuclear family, Hedy has always felt like a misfit, struggling to fit into the family's dynamics and their covert and highly unorthodox profession. As the next generation of accomplished and stealthy assassins, Hedy and her twin brother Gerhardt are expected to carry on the family legacy. 
    However, Hedy's secretive family history, tumultuous teenage years, and predetermined future not only in the family business but also in the family itself, have left her questioning her place in the world. Adding to the intrigue is the fact that Hedy is the first female Hinterschott to be born in the family's long line of assassins, prompting her to question why all other women in her family tree have only been added through marriage. 
    As the story unfolds, a mysterious prospective boyfriend, a plot to uncover Hitler's billions, and the unraveling of family secrets lead Hedy on a journey of self-discovery, where she finds that assassinations may be easier than navigating the complexities of romance and family. 
    With its unique blend of dark comedy, drama, and romance, Assassins Are Us offers a thrilling and thought-provoking coming-of-age story that will keep you hooked from beginning to end.

    🥧 Pie shop owner Patty Crustwell's world turns upside down when the town's historic preservationist is found dead in her bakery, his body tucked inside her antique pie safe with a half-eaten slice of cherry pie clutched in his hand. The police suspect a bizarre break-in gone wrong, but Patty notices the pie safe's ventilation holes form a strange pattern and the victim's notes contain cryptic references to hidden town documents. With her shop temporarily closed and rumors spreading faster than warm butter, Patty must assemble the pieces of this pastry-packed puzzle. Assisted by her pie-baking grandmother and the handsome antiques dealer who sold her the pie safe, Patty uncovers a web of deception involving land development schemes, forged historical records, and a legendary missing recipe collection. From suspicious lattice crust patterns that match architectural blueprints to fruit fillings that reveal chemical alterations, every baking detail holds a clue. But when Patty discovers the victim was about to expose a conspiracy that would destroy the town's historic district, she realizes the killer is someone she serves pie to every day. With the annual Pie Festival approaching and the real killer still at large, Patty must crack this case before her business becomes pie in the sky.
