Strážkyně hrobů 3: Zrůdní mrtví
Keira by si opravdu přála, aby se její život konečně vrátil zase do normálu. Je však velice těžké být normální, když díky své schopnosti vidět duchy dostala práci hrobnice a navíc bydlí přímo na městském hřbitově.
Když Keira jednoho dne obdrží pozvánku na večeři do chátrajícího sídla Danea Crispina, ví, že si nemůže dovolit toto pozvání odmítnout. Poslední potomek slavné rodiny Crispinů totiž žije takřka jako poustevník a nežádal by o její společnost jen tak pro nic za nic. Keira ho zatím potkala jen jednou jedinkrát a toto setkání ji poznamenalo jednou provždy… tehdy se ji totiž pokusil zabít.
Rozlehlé sídlo Crispinových je prodchnuté spletitou a krvavou minulostí. Sotva Keira překročí práh tohoto děsivého domu, vycítí přítomnost neklidných duchů, a Dane už ji také velice netrpělivě očekává…

Poslední útočiště
Dokonalá rodina. Dokonalé místo. Dokonalá past.

Vůně lesa se vytrácí a ticho, které dříve znamenalo klid, se stává předzvěstí něčeho strašlivého...

THE BRAND NEW HEART-STOPPING THRILLER FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR
On July 15, 1994, ten-year-old Ethan and his best friend Billy fell asleep together in their quiet New Jersey cul de sac.
In the morning, Ethan woke up alone. The tent was sliced open, and Billy was gone, taken. He was never seen again.
Thirty years later, Ethan has returned to Hemlock Circle, still desperate for answers.
Who took Billy?
Plagued by bad dreams and insomnia, he begins to notice strange things happening on the street under the cover of darkness. Someone is prowling the cul de sac when no one is awake to see them.
Are they still out there?
This isn't a bad neighourhood. These aren't bad people.
What if they are?
In Your Dreams
Some enemies never die. They just wait to be remembered. Salem was meant to be a fresh start. But when ER Nurse Henry Trank starts dreaming of a woman being hunted through the snow, the nightmare follows him into daylight—right down to the pine needles tangled in his hair. What began as a haunting dream spirals into something far more terrifying. Desperate for answers, he records himself sleeping—only to discover he’s acting out the brutal final moments of the woman's life. Henry turns to the only person in town he trusts—an enchanting, sharp-tongued, green-eyed witch with a quiet strength and a presence that feels eerily familiar. There’s something between them—undeniable, electric, and older than memory. There's just one little problem—Henry doesn't buy any of this, and time is running out. If he can't be convinced to believe in magic—or in her—Salem's dark history might just reach across three centuries to claim them both... again. In Your Dreams is the captivating first book in Robert Sanborn’s League of the Moon series—where magic never dies, nightmares whisper secrets, and a love once lost may be the key to breaking a centuries-old curse written in blood and shadow. ______________________________________Praise for The League of the Moon series5.0 out of 5 stars - I couldn't put this book down, reading it within 2 days of its arrival..... excellent book5.0 out of 5 stars - A great read.

Smoke, Mirrors, and Murder
From #1 New York Times bestselling author and true crime icon Ann Rule, the cases in this collection grapple with murder, false identity, and much more. In some murder cases, the truth behind the most tragic of crimes crystallizes with relative ease. Not so with these fascinating accounts drawn from the personal files of Ann Rule, America’s #1 bestselling true crime writer. What happens when the case itself becomes an intractable puzzle, when clues are shrouded in smoke and mirrors, and when criminals skillfully evade law enforcement in a maddening cat-and-mouse chase? Even the most devoted true crime reader won’t predict the outcome of these truly confounding cases until the conclusions are revealed in Rule’s marvelously insightful narrative: - A “picture perfect” family is targeted for death by the least likely enemy, who plotted their demise from behind bars. - A sexual predator hides behind multiple fake identities, eluding police for years while his past victims live in fear that he will hunt them down. - A modest preacher’s wife confesses to shooting her husband after an argument—but there’s more to her shattering story than meets the eye. These and other true cases are analyzed with stunning clarity in a page-turning collection you won''t be able to put down.
At the Bottom of the Garden
A murderous aunt, strangely gifted children and witchcraft come together in Camilla Bruce’s new intensely dark adult Gothic fairytale. For fans of Catriona Ward and C.J. Cooke‘All the elegance and all the venom of one of E.Nesbit’s supernatural stories served with a side of arsenic.’ Grady Hendrix, New York Times bestselling author of How to Sell a Haunted HouseThe dead won’t stay silent forever…Clara Woods has a secret. At the bottom of the garden is a flowerbed, long overgrown, where her murdered husband rests in peace – or so she always thought. Then the girls arrived. Lily and Violet, her adolescent nieces, are recently orphaned and in urgent need of care. Raising teenagers is certainly not what Clara had envisioned for herself, but they come with a hefty sum attached. There is only one problem: both girls are untrained witches. Lily can literally see how people feel. And young Violet can see the dead man wandering at the bottom of the garden. In fact, she can see all the dead and call them back. Soon, Clara finds herself surrounded by apparitions – and two girls who know far more about her dark past than they should. A war is waging in this house, and only one side can win…'Theatrical and deliciously dark, this book is pure magic' A.J. West, author of The Spirit Engineer'One gorgeously morbid gothic novel that's just as gleeful as it is gashlycrumb.' Clay McLeod Chapman, author of What Kind of Mother and Ghost Eaters

Invisible Helix
'The Japanese Stieg Larsson' The TimesDetective Galileo, Keigo Higashino's best loved character from The Devotion of Suspect X, returns in a case where hidden history, and impossible crime, are linked by nearly invisible threads in surprising ways. The body of a young man is found floating in Tokyo Bay. But his death was no accident-Ryota Uetsuji was shot. He'd been reported missing the week before by his live-in girlfriend Sonoka Shimauchi, but when detectives from the Homicide Squad go to interview her, she is nowhere to be found. She's taken time off from work, clothes and effects are missing from the apartment she shared. And when the detectives learn that she was the victim of domestic abuse, they presume that she was the killer. But her alibi is airtight-she was hours away in Kyoto when Ryota disappeared, forcing Detectives Kusanagi and Utsumi to restart their investigation. But if Sonoko didn't kill her abusive lover, then who did? A thin thread of association leads them to their old consultant, brilliant physicist Manabu Yukawa, known in the department as "Detective Galileo." With Sonoko still missing, the detectives investigate other threads of association-an eccentric artist, who was Sonoko's mother figure after her own single mother passed; and an older woman who is the owner of a hostess club. And how is Sonoko continuing to stay one step ahead of the police searching for her? It's up to Galileo to find the nearly hidden threads of history and coincidence that connect the people around the bloody murder- which, surprisingly, connect to his own traumatic past-to unravel not merely the facts of the crime but the helix that ties them all together.

A middleman in Cyrenaica has ceased communication and Tetisheri's uncle, a master trader, is on a mission to find out why. But there are others in Cyrenaica with hidden agendas: Julius Caesar's spies, Caesar's sworn enemy Mettelus Scipio, and the ever duplicitous King Juba I.

With war on the horizon, Tetisheri’s skills will be stretched to the limit as she also tries to decipher a murder mystery closer to home.
