William Holmes is a discreet civil servant at the heart of Whitehall. Things are usually quiet, orderly, and predictable . . . until someone tries to burn him alive in his own flat.
He survives by chance. But now he must find out who wants him dead — and why?
What begins as an attempted assassination quickly reveals something bigger. Soviet agents have disappeared across Europe. A new, silent weapon has surfaced. And someone believes Holmes is standing in the way of whatever comes next.
The truth is, he doesn’t know what he’s supposed to know.
Forced out from behind his desk and into the field, Holmes follows the trail from London to Paris, searching for the missing piece before his enemies strike again.
At his side is Morrison — steady, practical, and quietly capable — the counterbalance to Holmes’s instinct and intuition.
Because in this new game, hesitation is fatal.
And the attempt on Holmes’s life was only the opening move.
Perfect for fans of John le Carré, Ben Macintyre, John Gardner, Charles Cumming, and Mick Herron’s Slow Horses.

About the book
The acclaimed New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling novel of small-town evil that “is genuinely chilling and something brand-new and exciting” (Stephen King) and “unforgettable” (Harlan Coben).
In the summer of 1988, the mutilated bodies of several missing girls begin to turn up in a small Maryland town. The grisly evidence leads police to the terrifying assumption that a serial killer is on the loose in the quiet suburb. But soon a rumor begins to spread that the evil stalking local teens is not entirely human. Law enforcement, as well as members of the FBI, are certain that the killer is a living, breathing madman—and he’s playing games with them. For a once peaceful community trapped in the depths of paranoia and suspicion, it feels like a nightmare that will never end.
Recent college graduate Richard Chizmar returns to his hometown just as a curfew is enacted and a neighborhood watch is formed. Amid preparing for his wedding and embarking on a writing career, he soon finds himself thrust into a real-life horror story. Inspired by the terrifying events, Richard writes a personal account of the serial killer’s reign of terror, unaware that these events will continue to haunt him for years to come.
A clever, terrifying, and heartrending work of metafiction, Chasing the Boogeyman is the ultimate marriage between horror fiction and true crime. Chizmar’s “dazzling work of fresh imagination and psychological insight” (Caroline Kepnes, New York Times bestselling author of You) is on full display in this truly unique novel that will haunt you long after you turn the final page.

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.

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.

Upstate New York, 1933. When Clara Dawson inherits Hollowfield House—a remote inn owned by the father who abandoned her—she hopes to sell it quickly and escape her mounting debts. But the inn’s haunted halls hold secrets darker than she ever imagined, and something within them refuses to be forgotten.

With help from the property’s groundskeeper, Tuck, Clara’s search for answers pulls her into the tangled web of Hollowfield’s history. It quickly becomes clear that someone—or something—is determined to keep the past buried, and they will stop at nothing to silence her.
