The focus is on the ever-changing face of London’s East End, giving the reader a real sense of how the past meets the present in arguably London’s most vibrant and cultural quarter, where the shadow of the Ripper is never too far away…Jack the Ripper’s London features previously unseen images from the authors’ own collections and detailed crime scene reconstructions that have never been published before. This will be the perfect companion for anyone wanting to visit the East End of London or those who wish to get a sense of where everything happened in Jack the Ripper’s day.

A titkok otthona
Légy óvatos a szomszédaiddal!
Régebben mások otthonát takarítottam, most pedig a saját házamban élek a családommal. Bájos konyha, csendes zsákutca, hatalmas kert, ahol a gyerekeim játszhatnak. A férjemmel, Enzóval évekig spóroltunk azért, hogy mindezt megteremtsük. A múltamat már magunk mögött hagytuk. És mindent megteszek, hogy ez így is maradjon...
Új szomszédunk, Mrs. Lowell különös tekintettel fürkészi Enzót, de azért elfogadjuk a vacsorameghívását. Hátha lehetőségünk nyílik összebarátkozni. A házvezetőnője fehér kötényben, a haját szoros kontyba tűzve nyitja ki az ajtót. Pontosan tudom, milyen érzés az ő helyében lenni. De fagyos tekintetétől kiráz a hideg. Ugyanakkor nem ő az egyetlen furcsa teremtés az utcánkban.
Biztos vagyok benne, hogy egy sötét alak figyel minket.
Azt hittem, magam mögött hagytam a titkaimat. De lehet, hogy ez a csendes külvárosi utca a világ legveszélyesebb helye?

És egy végzetes zuhanás a mélybe.
Miss Atalanta Ashford jól megérdemelt pihenését tölti Velencében, amikor a városnézés során egy titokzatos, fátylas hölgy azzal a sürgető kéréssel fordul hozzá, hogy vizsgálja meg a lánya halálának rejtélyes körülményeit. Letitia az előkelő Bucardi családnál szolgált társalkodónőként az idilli görög szigeten, Szantorinin, ahol egy, a parton tett magányos sétája során megcsúszott, és a szikláról a tengerbe zuhant. Az asszony azonban kételkedik abban, hogy a lányát valóban baleset érte.
Miután az új társalkodónő szerepében Szantorinire hajózik, Miss Ashford hamarosan rájön, hogy megbízója nem mondta el neki a teljes igazságot. Segítője, Raoul Lemont pedig mintha csak hátráltatná azzal, hogy maga is titkolózik, és a viselkedése egyre több gyanút kelt a fiatal nyomozónőben. Úgy tűnik, a forró görög nap alatt senki sincs biztonságban, így Atalantának igyekeznie kell, ha nem akarja, hogy az azúrkék tenger látványa legyen számára is az utolsó, amit még életében megpillant...

Hagyaték
A The New York Times bestsellerszerző új trilógiájának első része tragédiák, megtalált és elveszett szerelmek, valamint egy család története, amelyet nemzedékek óta szellem kísért.
A grafikusként dolgozó Sonya MacTavish megdöbben, amikor megtudja, hogy néhai apjának volt egy ikertestvére, akiről soha nem hallott, és újonnan felfedezett nagybátyja, Collin Poole szinte mindenét ráhagyta, beleértve egy fenséges, tengerparti viktoriánus házat Maine államban, ahol a végrendelet értelmében legalább három évig laknia kell. Mivel az eljegyzése nemrég felbomlott, Sonya úgy dönt, hogy eddigi életét hátrahagyva odautazik, hogy kiderítse, miért választották szét születésükkor a fiúkat, és miért tartották mindezt titokban, amíg egy genealógiai honlap nyilvánosságra nem hozta.
Treynek, a fiatal ügyvédnek, aki fogadja a lányt a hatalmas, sziklatetőn elterülő házban, feltűnik Sonya nyugtalansága, és elismeri, hogy a hely kísértetjárta... de csak egy kicsit. Sonya valóban korán megtapasztalja, hogy tárgyak mozognak, és zene szól a semmiből. Az ügyet csak tovább bonyolítja, hogy elhunyt nagybátyja irodájában egy édesapjáról készült festmény lóg, és egy Astrid nevű nő portréját is rejtélyek övezik, akit az ügyvéd "az első elvesztett menyasszonyként" emleget.
Egyre világosabbá válik, hogy Sonya sokkal többet örökölt egy háznál. Egy évszázados átok a hagyatéka, és egy rejtély, amelyet meg kell oldania, ha egyáltalán van remény arra, hogy rájöjjön az igazságra...

The Terror
Hailed by STEPHEN KING as 'a brilliant, massive combination of history and supernatural horror'.
And made into an acclaimed, chilling 10-part Ridley Scott-produced BBC TV series
Hailed as the most advanced scientific enterprise ever mounted, Sir John Franklin's 1845 expedition in search of the fabled North-West Passage had every expectation of triumph.
But for almost two years his ships HMS Terror and Erebus have been trapped in the Arctic ice. Supplies of fuel and food are running low. Scurvy, starvation and even madness have begun to take their toll. And yet the real threat isn't from the constantly shifting, alien landscape, the flesh-numbing temperatures or being crushed by the unyielding, frozen ocean. No, the real threat is far more terrifying.
Because there is something out there in the frigid darkness. It stalks the ships and snatches men. It is a nameless thing. At once nowhere and everywhere, this terror will become the expedition's nemesis . . .
