About the book
The critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling Tom Marlowe series returns!
They tried to bury the past. Now the past is burying them.
Tom Marlowe's partner Trix Preston hasn't mentioned Operation CASTLE ROCK in five years. She doesn't need to – it was pre-MI5 hacking work, corporate espionage to pay off a debt, nothing worth remembering.
Until three GCHQ analysts connected to CASTLE ROCK turn up dead across Europe, one every seventy-two hours.
Someone is eliminating everyone who knew about the operation – a five-year-old MI5 project buried in Edinburgh's financial district where British Intelligence's black budget meets corporate fraud.
Trix's name is on the list.
The assassin is already in Scotland.
And with the pattern holding, she has three days before the killer comes for her, and the only person who knows why someone inside MI5 would want CASTLE ROCK erased is a ghost from Trix's past who shouldn't still be breathing.
Now Marlowe must protect his partner while hunting for files that prove who sold out CASTLE ROCK five years ago. But in Edinburgh's shadows, the deeper he digs, the more he realizes the woman who taught Trix to survive might be the same one trying to get her killed.
Some secrets stay buried in ledgers. Others stay buried in bodies.
And in Edinburgh, they're burning both.
The eleventh book in the critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling series of Tom Marlowe thrillers, written by New York Times #1 Bestseller Tony Lee writing as Jack Gatland, Burning Ledgers is perfect for fans of the Bourne movies, Burn Notice, Mission Impossible, Slow Horses, Jack Ryan, James Patterson, Mark Dawson, Lee Child, Mick Herron and Robert Ludlum, among others.

About the book
In the vein of Fiona Barton's The Widow and Renée Knight's Disclaimer, a psychological thriller about a war reporter who returns to her childhood home after her mother's death but becomes convinced that all is not well in the house next door—but is what she's seeing real or a symptom of the trauma she suffered in Syria?
The One Person You Should Trust Is Lying to You…
Kate has spent fifteen years bringing global injustice home: as a decorated war reporter, she's always in a place of conflict, writing about ordinary people in unimaginable situations. When her mother dies, Kate returns home from Syria for the funeral. But an incident with a young Syrian boy haunts her dreams, and when Kate sees a boy in the garden of the house next door—a house inhabited by an Iraqi refugee who claims her husband is away and she has no children—Kate becomes convinced that something is very wrong.
As she struggles to separate her memories of Syria from the quiet town in which she grew up—and also to reconcile her memories of a traumatic childhood with her sister's insistence that all was not as Kate remembers—she begins to wonder what is actually true…and what is just in her mind.
In this gripping, timely debut, Nuala Ellwood brings us an unforgettable damaged character, a haunting , humanizing look at the Syrian conflict, and a deeply harrowing psychological thriller that readers won't be able to put down.

About the book
An Amazon NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER!
Previously hit #1 in Overall Amazon US Kindle Store (For Free E-Books)
"A moody, enveloping crime thriller." (SPR Editorial Review)
A Murderer on the Loose.
A Detective Haunted by the Past.
A Race Against Time.
DCI Jonathan Walker is a senior detective for the Lancashire Constabulary in North West England. He’s haunted by events of the past and hell bent on redemption, if he can stay healthy for long enough that is.
After a body turns up in the sleepy village of Rufford, Walker returns from his leave of absence early, his experience deemed crucial for the case. But when it transpires the crime may be linked to a decades old cold case involving the murder of his sister, the crime becomes personal: he needs this—for his wife and kids, to make amends for past mistakes, and for the current victim—but he must toe the line if he isn’t to be thrown off the case.
When more people start to go missing and bodies turn up with the same bizarre signature, Walker and his team realise they have a serial killer on their hands. But time is running out if they want to save more people from dying, and one in particular, and Walker has to consider breaking the law himself to make things right, once and for all.

“Pederson delivers an irresistible thriller… Every chapter races in this fleet-footed debut, teeming with twists and last-minute developments that will shock readers.” – BookLife
EVERYONE HAS SECRETS... SOME ARE JUST MORE DEADLY THAN OTHERS.
Madison Maxwell wanted a fresh start—new job, new city, a chance to finally move on from the tragedy that’s defined her life for twenty years. The unexpected offer from Know Inc., the Silicon Valley tech giant, seems perfect—
—until she learns she’s replacing an employee killed in a mysterious hit-and-run.
—until her charismatic VP boss, TJ Khan, triggers fears she can’t explain.
—until the nightmares return.
Soon Madison can’t shake a terrifying suspicion: Khan isn’t who he claims to be—and what he’s hiding is tied directly to the dark day that killed her father, a day that still haunts her with unanswered questions. To prove she’s right, she would have to cross a line she may not survive.
Across the country, FBI Special Agent Markus Niles is racing to stop a deadly conspiracy poised to strike on an unprecedented scale. Its mastermind remains hidden—and every lead has ended in death.
A new clue points to Silicon Valley.
To Know Inc.
To Madison.
But nothing is what it seems.

About the book
An unrelenting horror ride that pays homage to final girls, slasher films, and cosmic small-town horror.
A town divided. An unknowable evil. Actually, make that two evils.
Seventeen years after Jamie stared into the face of evil during a freak mass murder in her small town, she’s still fighting the stigma of being one of the only survivors left to recount—and relive—the nightmare.
The body of the Silver Fox killer, her boyfriend Zane, was never recovered, leading many to question whether he really was the perpetrator.
Now the sheriff of Creed Falls, Jamie has spent her life preparing her daughter Claire for monsters. The Silver Fox is one she thought she’d never see again.
When a glowing meteorite smashes into a neighbor’s yard, and someone wearing a chrome Silver Fox mask starts terrorizing the camp again on the tragic anniversary, there’s nowhere left to run and hide. To make matters worse, a mysterious disease is spreading through town, infecting neighbors and turning them into monsters.
Award-winning, bestselling horror master Jon Cohn is at his peak—drenched in nostalgia, The Creed Falls Massacres is perfect for fans of the Halloween movies, Friday the 13th, and every badass female protagonist that graced silver screens over the last three decades.

In the fall of 2008, John Carver’s older brother, Owen, goes missing. He is found dead a few days later, his body torn apart by the local wildlife. Despite reports of strange noises heard at the time of Owen’s disappearance, the police rule the tragedy as “a death by misadventure.”

Even if it kills him.
This page-turning horror novel is perfect for fans of monster stories, characters with unbreakable bonds, and coming-of-age horror classics like IT, A BOY’S LIFE, and SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES.
