Freida McFadden 3 Book Boxed Set 1
Deceit runs deep. Trust no one....
Dive into Freida McFadden at her most diabolical - times three.
From #1 New York Times bestseller and TikTok sensation comes a collection of three twisted thrillers: The Teacher, The Coworker, and The Boyfriend.
The Teacher
Eve has a good life. She gets up each day, gets a kiss from her husband Nate, and heads off to teach math at the local high school. All is as it should be. Except…
Last year, Caseham High was rocked by a scandal involving a student-teacher affair, with one student, Addie, at its center. But Eve knows there is far more to these ugly rumors than meets the eye.
Addie can't be trusted. She lies. She hurts people. She destroys lives. At least, that's what everyone says.
But nobody knows the real Addie. Nobody knows the secrets that could destroy her. And Addie will do anything to keep it quiet.
The Coworker
Dawn Schiff is strange.
At least, everyone thinks so at Vixed, the nutritional supplement company where Dawn works as an accountant. She never says the right thing. She has no friends. And she is always at her desk at precisely 8:45 a.m.
So when Dawn doesn't show up to the office one morning, her coworker Natalie Farrell-beautiful, popular, top sales rep five years running-is surprised. Then she receives an unsettling, anonymous phone call that changes everything…
It turns out Dawn wasn't just an awkward outsider-she was being targeted by someone close. And now Natalie is irrevocably tied to Dawn as she finds herself caught in a twisted game of cat and mouse that leaves her wondering: who's the real victim?
But one thing is incredibly clear: somebody hated Dawn Schiff. Enough to kill.
The Boyfriend
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She's seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot.
Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet.
Then the brutal murder of a young woman-the latest in a string of deaths across the coast-confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.
Sydney should feel safe. After all, she is dating the guy of her dreams. But she can't shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems. Because someone is watching her every move, and if she doesn't get to the truth, she'll be the killer's next victim...
Modré stíny
Literární předloha televizní série Detektivové od Nejsvětější trojice.
Jednoho listopadového rána uklízečka nalezne docenta Ondřeje Chalupu zastřeleného v jeho pracovně. Souvisí vražda s jeho dlouhodobou snahou o odvolání univerzitního kvestora kvůli podivným machinacím při rekonstrukci historické univerzitní budovy? Proč vrah riskoval a střílel přímo v budově? Kdo všechno měl důvod přát si smrt svérázného, ale čestného docenta?
Těšit se můžeme na druhý díl ze série detektivních románů, jejichž protagonisty jsou policejní komisařka (a fanynka Boba Dylana) Marie Výrová, přezdívaná Velká Sova, a její mladší kolegové Pavel Edelweiss a Kristýna Horová. Nitky vyšetřování případu, který se zprvu jeví jako běžná lokální zpronevěra, zavlečou postupně své kladné i záporné hrdiny do bažiny bezskrupulózního prospěchářství, klientelismu a korupce stoupající do nejvyšších pater politiky. Stíny ukryté v lidských myslích a tajené příběhy z minulosti nakonec málem rozloží i vyšetřovací tým. Jak se s tím popere poněkud netuctová, ale sympatická a krevnatá postava komisařky Výrové?
Sýkorovy detektivní romány fungují na více rovinách; plně respektují nejzákladnější pravidlo hry — jsou napínavé, své čtenáře baví a co nejdéle udržují v nejistotě, kdo je pachatelem vraždy. Autorova schopnost kombinovat napětí, milostné spletence a vtipné pasáže dělá z Modrých stínů prózu, jež obstojí i u těch, kteří žánr detektivky obvykle nevyhledávají.
V Michalu Sýkorovi se na české scéně objevuje bravurní vypravěč a zároveň poučený autor, který navazuje mimo jiné na náročnější tradice britské detektivky. Prvním svazkem z volné řady jeho detektivních příběhů byla kniha Případ pro exorcistu.

Trailbreaker
Suspicions that a serial killer is terrorizing a pristine tourist spot draw a single mom and budding private investigator into a twisting and deepening mystery of secrets and murder. Single mom and newly minted private investigator Prairie Nightingale has opened the doors of her Green Bay, Wisconsin, agency and is ready for work. She and her crew aren’t quite prepared for their first client, though: Bernie Dubicki, a notorious online journalist and not-altogether-reliable provocateur, who claims the idyllic vacation destination of nearby Door County is home to a serial killer. She’s pinpointed four seemingly unrelated deaths that haven’t raised suspicions for anyone else. But when a college student vanishes, Bernie’s sizable retainer convinces Prairie to help connect the dots. And trusted, flirty FBI agent Foster Rosemare thinks Bernie might be onto something. Prairie never expected her first investigation to be so big—like Dateline big—but she does have an inquiring mind and a knack for seeing things no one else can. In this case she’ll have to look deep—not only into the secrets of strangers, but into Door County’s woods—to solve a mystery decades in the making.
We Were Never Friends
Sisters? Forever. Friends? NEVER. Who knew a reunion weekend could be so deadly?

- Amelia Dell, the widow drenched in old money and alcohol, with her big pot-stirring spoon and uninvited boy-toy in tow
- Jamie Vale, the double-legacy pledge, straight-A student with no sparkle, now a top cardiologist with a picture-perfect family-and a well-guarded bad habit
- Beth Harrison, the scholarship student who never quite fit in and was only admitted because her best friend Sunny insisted that the two were a package deal
- Sunny Spencer, the carefree and beloved friend to all, or so it seemed-until she wasn't
They've been summoned to Roxy's luxurious Palm Springs vacation home to celebrate the engagement of her son to Beth's daughter. But the refurbished 1920s estate is eerily reminiscent of the hotel where tragedy struck during Spring Break twenty-five years ago. Long-simmering tensions and shocking secrets begin bubbling to the surface like bodies-because while the weekend was supposed to be about celebrating the future, it's not so easy to bury the past…
For fans of Shari Lapena, Mary Kubica, and B. A. Paris, We Were Never Friends is an unputdownable, riveting train wreck full of dark humor and bad behavior.

Příslušníci Veřejné bezpečnosti pachatele nápadně rychle zadrží, přičemž Hanino tvrzení, že vrahem byl ve skutečnosti podivný zelený přízrak, ze všeho nejvíc připomínající vodníka z Erbenovy Kytice, nikdo nebere vážně. Policejní komisařka Marie Výrová se tentokrát bude zabývat čtvrt století starou vraždou.
