About the book
Portland was supposed to be a quiet stop for Mystic Caravan, their last stop on the West Coast. Nothing ever goes as expected for Poet Parker, however.
On her first day in town, she sees a shadowy figure on a bridge, and that’s followed by a visit from local law enforcement the next morning. It seems women are going missing, but nobody knows what’s happening to them.
When Poet digs deeper, she finds another story. This one involves creepy kids in dated clothing harassing people in parks and supermarkets. The kids aren’t normal, however, and nobody appears to notice that they’re hanging out in places they don’t belong.
Poet does a deep dive on Portland’s history, but it doesn’t lead to answers. She has more questions than anything else.
Who are the kids? Why is nobody missing them? Where are the women? Are they tied to the kids?
And what’s going on in Portland’s old tunnel system, the one that was famous because of how many kidnapping victims were transported through it over the years?
Poet is determined to find out, even if the answers just might kill her.

About the book
Some killers want money. Some want power.
This one wants both… and leaves families butchered in his wake.
When Seattle's wealthiest families start turning up murdered inside their own homes, FBI Special Agent Jane Cannon is called in to hunt a killer with a taste for spectacle. The victims are staged. Their fortunes are stripped away. Their children are slaughtered. And somehow, the household pets keep disappearing.
What begins as a string of savage home invasions quickly unravels into something far more sinister. A secret network of power brokers. Stolen financial secrets. And a conspiracy guarded by blood.
The deeper Jane digs, the clearer the truth becomes: these murders aren't random. They're targeted. Calculated. And tied to a man she knows is far more dangerous than anyone realizes.
August Kaminski.
To stop the killing, Jane will have to outmaneuver a mastermind who thrives in the shadows and a butcher who enjoys every second of the work. But in a world where money buys silence and loyalty is always for sale, getting to the truth may cost her everything.
Some secrets are buried in ledgers. Others are written in blood.

About the book
Framed for murder. A viral video proves it. The case she abandoned after her daughter died could save—or destroy her, from the USA Today bestselling author of The Night Olivia Fell.
Detective Jess Lambert is days away from the trial of the woman accused of killing her daughter when she wakes in a seedy hotel room with no memory of how she got there. On her phone is a viral video showing Jess calmly shooting the woman in cold blood.
As the footage spreads and her own department closes in, Jess has no choice but to run. Someone has engineered her downfall, and the only way to survive is to uncover who’s turning her past into a weapon. Desperate to clear her name, she follows the only lead she has—an unsolved case she abandoned after her daughter died that now holds the key to who set her up.
But the closer Jess gets to the truth, the more she realizes it may not be enough. Because when people prefer the lie, even reality becomes irrelevant.

About the book
The child didn't make a sound. He wasn't even afraid.
On a cold, wet morning in Middleton, seven-year-old Tommy Priestley is found dead in his bed. No forced door. No struggle. No terror on his small face, only the trust of a boy who let someone he knew lead him gently into the dark.
For DCI George Beaumont, that trust is the most chilling clue of all. Because if Tommy wasn't afraid of his killer, then neither, most likely, is anyone else in this quiet corner of Leeds.
As George and his team hunt a murderer who leaves almost nothing behind, a thirty-year-old case stirs back to life: another child, another bed, another life stolen and never answered for. The two are bound together, and the closer George
looks, the closer to home it leads.
Because whoever is moving through Middleton in the dead hours doesn't believe they're a monster. They think they're being kind. They think they're saving something precious before the world can spoil it.
And with a terrible anniversary only days away, they've already chosen who's next.
Some things, once taken, are kept forever.
Set within the suburbs of Leeds, West Yorkshire, this fast-paced British detective novel is a crime thriller that will keep you guessing until the end.
Forever Seven is the twenty-sixth book in the Detective George Beaumont thriller series.

But the inn’s haunted halls hold secrets darker than she ever imagined, and something within them refuses to be forgotten.

I wish I could erase it from my mind just to read it again for the first time. A shot of pure joy.”—Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Book Lovers
She’s got his back.
Hannah Brooks looks more like a kindergarten teacher than somebody who could kill you with a wine bottle opener. Or a ballpoint pen. Or a dinner napkin. But the truth is, she’s an Executive Protection Agent (aka "bodyguard"), and she just got hired to protect superstar actor Jack Stapleton from his middle-aged, corgi-breeding stalker.
He’s got her heart.
Jack Stapleton’s a household name—captured by paparazzi on beaches the world over, famous for, among other things, rising out of the waves in all manner of clingy board shorts and glistening like a Roman deity. But a few years back, in the wake of a family tragedy, he dropped from the public eye and went off the grid.
They’ve got a secret.
When Jack’s mom gets sick, he goes home to the family’s Texas ranch to help out. Only one catch: He doesn’t want his family to know about his stalker. Or the bodyguard thing. And so Hannah—against her will and her better judgment—finds herself pretending to be Jack’s girlfriend as a cover. Even though her ex, says no one will believe it.
What could possibly go wrong?
Hannah hardly believes it, herself. But the more time she spends with Jack, the more real it all starts to seem. And there lies the heartbreak. Because it’s easy for Hannah to protect Jack. But protecting her own, long-neglected heart? That’s the hardest thing she’s ever done.

About the book
Charlotte Vance can detect any lie ever told. Any lie except the ones her fiancé tells her.
Two years engaged to Sebastian Whitmore, and her witch's gift has not warned her once. Not when he proposed. Not when he kissed her. Not when he promised her a wedding in June. Either Sebastian is the most honest man in London, or her gift has a blind spot shaped exactly like him.
She isn't sure which possibility frightens her more.
When Scotland Yard's Inspector Reid arrives investigating impossible murders in her hidden magical society, Charlotte agrees to help—lending him her gift, and her place inside Sebastian's world. The arrangement is strictly professional. Then they share one forbidden kiss in candlelight, and Charlotte returns home with the taste of another man on her lips.
Every body falls closer to her own front door. Every question about her fiancé becomes harder to ignore. The more honest Sebastian seems, the more terrified Charlotte becomes.
Will she trust the magic that has never been wrong? Will she trust the detective asking the questions she's been afraid to ask?
Pick up Harrow today—a Victorian gothic paranormal romance of forbidden love, dark secrets, and a slow burn that will consume everything she thought she wanted.
