All the Little Houses
Adults can behave badly, too.
It's the mid-1980s in the tiny town of Longview, Texas. Nellie Anderson, the beautiful daughter of the Anderson family dynasty, has burst onto the scene. She always gets what she wants. What she can't get for herself…well, that's what her mother is for.
Because Charleigh Andersen-blond, beautiful, and ruthlessly cunning-remembers all too well having to claw her way to the top. When she was coming of age on the poor side of East Texas, she was a loser, an outcast, humiliated, and shunned by the in-crowd, whose approval she'd so desperately thirsted for.
So when a prairie-kissed family moves to town, all trad wife, woodworking dad, wholesome daughter vibes, Charleigh's entire self-made social empire threatens to crumble.
Who will be left standing when the dust settles?

The Friend of the Family
In this historical novel by #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz, a girl liberated from a carnival sideshow discovers her mysterious purpose in a moving story about family, sacrifice, and transcendent love. The human “oddities” in the Museum of the Strange are less wondrous than the gawking rubes had been promised. But Alida is something else. The real thing. Traveling Depression-era America from carnival midways to speakeasies, Alida is resigned to an exploited and lonely life on the road as the museum’s golden ticket. Until she’s rescued by two compassionate strangers. Franklin and Loretta Fairchild see in Alida a gifted and uncannily well-read girl in need of a loving touch and a family. With the openhearted couple and their three precociously imaginative children, Alida finds it. Yet despite everyone’s overwhelming generosity and acceptance, Alida knows she is still a very different kind of girl. Her dreams bear that out. They’re vivid, unsettling, and threatening. Alida fears that they’re also warnings. And that it’s the Fairchilds who may need rescue from a bad, bad world. Alida will do anything to help those she now holds nearest and dearest. Empowered with a purpose to vanquish evil, she will not fail her family.

Scarlet Angel - Skarlát angyal (The Mindf*ck Series)
Ha meg akarsz ölni egy szörnyeteget, kétszer gonoszabb szörnynek kell lenned nála.
Ha szeretni akarsz egy szörnyeteget, meg kell osztanod vele a lelkedet...
Logan Bennett azt akarja, hogy olyan jövőm legyen, amit nem szennyez be a folyamatos
bosszúvágy. Ám ez nem jelenti azt, hogy képes vagyok leállni. És azt sem, hogy le akarok
állni. Csupán annyit jelenti, hogy a mostani életemnél többet akarok... majd egyszer.
De miként lehet elérni, hogy egy jó ember anélkül szeresse a bennem lévő szörnyeteget, hogy
az ő lelke is megfertőződne? Jelenleg számomra ő testesíti meg a jót, felébreszti a szívem kis
darabkáit, amiknek a létezéséről már el is feledkeztem.
Logannek köszönhetően mást is érzek, nem csak a hideget.
Azt gondolja rólam, hogy gyenge és törékeny vagyok, amit igazából viccesnek találok, bár
titokban vágyom arra, hogy védelmezzen és aggódjon értem.
Bárki, aki hozzányúl, bántja vagy akárcsak megfenyegeti, jobban teszi, ha menekül.
Mert egy kicsit őrült a barátnője. Csak ők ezt még nem tudják.
Fragrancia
Vo svete, kde vône dokážu oživiť spomienky, sa mladý aromaterapeut Hélias ocitá vo víre intríg, závislostí a zločinu. Luxusná spoločnosť Fragrancia sľubuje klientom návrat k ich najšťastnejším momentom – no za každou esenciou sa skrýva temné tajomstvo. Čo ak aj zločin má svoju vlastnú vôňu?
Psychopat
Vražda nebola jeho najzávažnejším zločinom
Píše sa rok 1957 a celá Amerika hľadí na fotografiu štíhleho muža zo stredozápadu – s pokriveným úsmevom a temným tajomstvom. Na muža, ktorý svoju malú farmu vo Wisconsine premenil na vlastný súkromný svet krvavých zločinov. Toto je skutočný príbeh Eda Geina, vraha, ktorého brutálne fantázie inšpirovali Alfreda Hitchcocka k natočeniu filmu Psycho. Je to tiež šokujúci portrét zdanlivo slušného, tichého farmára, ktorý bol naviazaný na despotickú matku a spáchal sériu činov presahujúcich ľudské chápanie. Kniha Psychopat v mrazivých detailoch skúma neuveriteľnú cestu jedného z najdesivejších šialencov v americkej kriminálnej histórii.
