Her secrets are just one click away... In this terrifying, twist-filled new thriller by “a writer to watch” (Dan Dalton, author of Johnny Ruin). Ten years ago, Dolores “Doll” O'Rourke was a covert journalist luring dangerous men into digital ambushes. When her last target, a suspected child predator, was brought down by her carefully crafted honey trap, she thought she'd buried the past for good. Now, a decade later, she's hiding from her ex-husband in rural Ireland with her young daughter. But a series of terrifying events has rapidly turned her quiet refuge into a nightmare. The remote house she's inherited cannot shelter her from conspiracy, betrayal, and danger. When tragedy strikes and her daughter's safety is threatened, Doll realizes she's not just fighting to protect her new life—she's battling ghosts from her past. And in a world where digital footprints can be erased—but sins cannot—Doll must confront a relentless predator she once ensnared...Praise for the novels of Helen Trevorrow “One wild ride.” —S. J.

Sin segundo nombre reúne, por primera vez en España, diez relatos policiales de Lee Child que ahondan en la leyenda y los orígenes de Jack Reacher, su célebre personaje. En'Demasiado tiempo', Reacher es testigo casual de un arrebato callejero en una perdida ciudad de Maine, pero nada es lo que parece cuando las cosas caen, literalmente, ante sus ojos. Okinawa es el escenario de'Segundo hijo', donde un Jack Reacher adolescente vive con sus padres y su hermano, y empieza a modelar y perfeccionar su inteligencia, sagacidad y fuerza física. En'En lo más profundo', un aún policía militar Reacher tiene que infiltrarse en un comité de expertos.'El cuadro del diner solitario', una historia de espías, le da la excusa para sentirse protagonista de una de sus pinturas favoritas. Completan la colección dos historias navideñas (un guiño británico al lector en medio de esta serie negra) y otros cuatro relatos atrapantes. Sin equipaje. Sin destino. Sin segundo nombre. No importa dónde ni cuándo, a Reacher los problemas siempre le encuentran. Mal por ellos.

L'autor de La dona a la finestra, un dels fenòmens literaris de la dècada, torna amb un misteri absorbent amb ecos de les novel·les d'Agatha Christie. «D'aquí tres mesos seré mort. Vingui a explicar la meva història».

Des de la mansió de l'autor a San Francisco, la Nicky comença a desembullar la història de la vida d'en Trapp sota les atentes mirades atentes de la seva enigmàtica esposa, la Diana, del seu nebot Freddy i de la Madeleine, la seva filla sobreprotectora.

La primera dona d'en Sebastian Trapp i el seu fill adolescent van desaparèixer la nit de Cap d'Any del 1999 i mai més se'n va saber res; el cas no es va arribar a resoldre. ¿Va ser en Trapp, el mestre del misteri, qui va dur a terme el crim perfecte? ¿Per què, dues dècades més tard, ha decidit abandonar la seva vida reclosa i permetre a una estranya furgar en el seu passat? «La vida és dura. Al capdavall, et mata». Mentre trena els fils de la vida d'en Sebastian, la Nicky s'obsessiona a descobrir la veritat i la Madeleine es pregunta què sap el seu pare del que va passar aquella nit fatídica. Quan un cos apareix a la bassa del jardí, tots s'adonen que el passat no ha passat, només està esperant. Un homenatge a Agatha Christie i a les novel·les clàssiques de misteri, amb una trama absorbent i magnètica. Resenyes: «Impossible deixar de llegir-lo». Stephen King «Irresistible». USA Today

The police call him Merkury. He's a killer who seems to choose his victims at random. He leaves no evidence behind, and no witnesses. Except for one. But what did she really see?When Kate Summerlin was eleven years old, she climbed out her bedroom window on a spring night, looking for a taste of freedom in the small college town where she was living with her parents. But what she found as she wandered in the woods near her house was something else: the body of a beautiful young woman, the first of Merkury's victims. And before she could come to grips with what she was seeing, she heard a voice behind her—the killer's voice—saying: “Don't turn around.”Now, at the age of twenty-nine, Kate is a successful true crime writer, but she has never told anyone the truth about what happened on that long-ago night. When Merkury claims yet another victim—a college student named Bryan Cayhill—Kate finds herself drawn back to the town where everything started. She sets out to make sense of this latest crime, but the deeper she gets into the story, the more she comes to realize that it's far from over. Her search for the truth about Merkury is leading her down into a dark labyrinth, and if she hopes to escape, she'll have to meet him once again—this time face to face.

Jazz, stay-at-home mum and domestic goddess; Hannah, childless career woman; and Cassie, demented working mother of two are three ordinary women. Their record collections are classical, not criminal.

He only wants to do what is right.Assigned to join a crew of elite security personnel in Chabon, Africa, Ryker's mission objective is clouded by politics and obfuscation, and he knows only that to protect British interests in the region, he is to infiltrate the close protection team of the government of Chabon, a country with a dark and violent past. ​Arriving in Chabon's crumbling capital, Kilpassa, Ryker finds a country on the brink of civil war. A growing civilian rebellion threatens peace, with claims of atrocities committed by both sides, including the frail government run by enigmatic President Benyu - a former military general who took control of the country in a violent coup. ​Drawn into Benyu's inner circle, it soon becomes clear to Ryker that in Chabon, the lines between good and bad, and right and wrong, are nearly impossible to identify.With a crisis of epic proportions unfolding before his eyes, Ryker knows one thing for sure: with or without the backing of his superiors, he must take drastic action, and quickly, or risk putting millions of innocent lives in danger.Praise for Rob Sinclair:'A cracking thriller with a Reacheresque hero you can't help but root for!'– John Ryder'A real page-turner, impossible to put down'Publishers Weekly'A must-read for fans of Lee Child and Robert Ludlum'Chelle's Book Reviews'An adrenaline shot right to the heart'The Best Thriller Books'Action-packed, fast-paced, thrilling with many plot twists'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'This book is a wonderful read and is one you won't want to put down'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'To say the book is action-packed is an understatement - it is full of the stuff'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'Lots of action and subterfuge and the characters play off each other'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'Action-packed and incredibly thrilling'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'A real page-turner'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Quel mattino, Sydney non si era voltata. Al volante, gli occhi fissi davanti a sé, aveva ignorato il suo saluto. È questa l'ultima immagine che Tim Blake conserva di sua figlia, dell'ultimo giorno in cui l'ha vista. A colazione avevano avuto una discussione per un paio di occhiali troppo costosi su cui lui aveva insinuato qualche sospetto. Del resto, sapeva che sua figlia non era un angelo. Aveva pur sempre diciassette anni. La sera, Tim avrebbe cercato di fare pace, ordinando la pizza che le piaceva. Alle sette, però, Sydney non era ancora rientrata, e nemmeno un'ora più tardi. Non aveva chiamato per avvisare e non era raggiungibile al telefono. La verità è che non sarebbe mai tornata quella sera. Né quella successiva. Né quella dopo ancora. Nessuno sa nulla. Nemmeno all'albergo dove Sydney aveva trovato lavoro per l'estate. O almeno, così lei aveva fatto credere a suo padre: perché, all'albergo, nessuno sa chi sia Sydney Blake. Mentre la polizia aggiunge il caso all'infinita lista delle persone scomparse, il ritrovamento della macchina della ragazza, con evidenti tracce di sangue sulla portiera e sul volante, smentisce l'ipotesi di una semplice fuga da adolescente. Nel frattempo, il padre riceve una mail da una sconosciuta che sostiene di aver visto Sydney; quando però Tim cerca di incontrarla, scopre che è inesistente. È solo la prima di una serie di trappole e false piste che trascinano Tim in una rete di mistero sempre più intricata. In cui qualcuno cerca di incastrarlo. -------'Un autore di razza.'- La Repubblica'Non riuscivo & metterlo giù, e nemmeno tu sarai in grado di farlo.'- Stephen King'Linwood Barclay non delude mai.'- The Times

“It's great fun to watch [Kit] Frick's two narratives collide and diverge.” —The New York Times Book Review From critically acclaimed author Kit Frick, this “storytelling feat, with twin narratives that race each other to a satisfying—and shocking—conclusion” (Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author), follows a pair of sisters into a family's dark past, illuminating how a single choice can drastically alter the trajectory of a lifeSisters Jane and Esme used to be thick as thieves. But as adults, pragmatic, dependable Jane regrets the distance that has grown between them. So when beautiful and impetuous Esme calls Jane during a flash summer storm, announcing she's left her high society husband, Jane is shocked to learn that her little sister wishes to stay with her. Could this be an opportunity for them to become close again? The only catch: Esme needs a ride from the city to their small Connecticut hometown, and Jane is terrified of getting on the highway. The storm is raging, and Jane can't escape the horrible memory of how she nearly killed Esme while driving in a downpour when they were teens. Jane must either let Esme stand on her own two feet for once or swallow her fear and jump to her younger sister's rescue—and her choice cleaves her life in two. In one reality, Jane tells Esme to crash with a friend. Twenty-four hours later, her sister is missing. Tortured by regret, Jane dedicates herself to piecing together Esme's life before her disappearance, unraveling a web of lies, broken relationships, and, finally, the truth. In the other reality, Jane gets in the car and offers her less-than-grateful sister a ride. But while Jane hopes living together in their childhood home will be healing, Esme is aloof and increasingly reckless. The tension between the sisters builds until they are finally forced to reckon with the explosive secret from their past that could destroy their fragile bond—and both their lives. With a breakneck pace and shocking twists and turns, The Split captivatingly explores how little we know the ones we love—and how one small choice can change everything.

Sono passati molti anni dalla notte nebbiosa di fine estate in cui la moglie del capo della polizia di Stenträsk, Wiking Stormberg, è scomparsa nella torbiera, lasciando dietro di sé la figlia piccola in un porte-enfant e un cesto di more artiche. Nonostante le ricerche, di lei non si è saputo più nulla. Il suo corpo sembra essere stato inghiottito dalle acque melmose e gelide di Kallmyren, dove le leggende narrano che bestie, persone e cose riposino cullate da muschi e alghe. Per Stormberg, quella palude è diventata un'ossessione e vi trascorre molto tempo a parlare con Helena, la donna che amava e che, come lui, aveva dentro di sé il canto del Nord, quel fremito che appartiene solo a chi si è adattato al buio e alla luce unici del circolo polare. Un giorno, il figlio Markus riceve una lettera, un avvertimento scritto a mano con la calligrafia di Helena e firmato con il suo simbolo: una stella. Possibile che sia ancora viva? E se non è così, chi è stato a spedire quella lettera? E perché? Stormberg avverte il pericolo, deve scoprire che cosa è realmente successo trent'anni prima: anche se non è in grado di fermare ciò che sta per accadere, forse può ancora influenzarne il corso. In fondo, non ha più niente da perdere.

The chance encounter quickly propels Cameron down a rabbit hole as he begins to question everything he knows about the circumstances surrounding his wife's death. Is he simply imagining things, hoping that the police made some mistake? Or are his suspicions all too real?The further he digs, the more he becomes convinced that there's a deeper conspiracy at play. As he follows strings that lead to devious schemes and murder, Cameron knows that there's no price he won't pay for the truth. And as the deadly threats to Cameron mount, that price may be his very life.

Alors que la région s'est embrasée depuis les événements du 7 octobre 2023, que les affrontements intercommunautaires se multiplient et que les morts s'accumulent, Dany et Guy, deux inspecteurs de la police judiciaire israélienne, enquêtent sur le meurtre d'une Européenne retrouvée assassinée en plein quartier arabe à Jérusalem-Est. Ils débutent leurs investigations sous haute tension, d'autant que pour les extrémistes, les coupables paraissent tout désignés et qu'une telle horreur appelle forcément vengeance.Parallèlement, Maïssa, flic palestinienne, enquête sur un enlèvement. Les deux affaires vont se croiser, s'imbriquer et obliger les policiers à travailler ensemble dans un climat de suspicion généralisée, où rien n'est simple et où il ne faut surtout jamais se fier aux apparences.Avec ce passionnant thriller, réédité dans une version revue et actualisée, l'auteur nous embarque en Cisjordanie, où il a vécu. Émaillant son récit d'anecdotes authentiques, sans jamais prendre parti et sans manichéisme, il aborde très justement le quotidien sur place et le conflit israélo-palestinien.À PROPOS DE L'AUTEURPierre Pouchairet s'est passionné pour son métier de flic.
