Arrowood
Sherlock Holmes pode solucionar um problema... mas Arrowood pode salvar sua vida. 1895: Londres está assustada. Um assassino assombra as ruas da cidade. Os pobres têm fome, os chefões do crime estão tomando controle e a polícia está operando além da sua capacidade. Enquanto os ricos se voltam para Sherlock Holmes, o celebrado detetive particular raramente visita as ruas densamente povoadas do Sul de Londres, onde os crimes são mais sujos e as pessoas são mais pobres. Em um canto escuro de Southwark, as vítimas recorrem a um homem que detesta Holmes, sua clientela rica e os espetáculos da sua abordagem forênsica: Arrowood — psicólogo autodidata, bêbado ocasional e investigador particular. Quando um homem desaparece misteriosamente e a melhor testemunha de Arrowood é brutalmente esfaqueada na sua frente, ele e seu colega Barnett precisam encarar sua tarefa mais difícil até hoje: capturar o chefe da mais notória gangue de Londres... Na tradição best-seller de Anthony Horowitz e Andrew Taylor, essa estreia gloriosa de ficção de suspense vai assombrar os leitores até muito depois da última página.

The Hollow Needle
In this first full-length Arsène Lupin novel the gentleman-thief remains a shadowy figure for most of the novel, working two steps beyond the law with a hidden aim. To fight against this anti-hero, Leblanc introduces Isidore Beautrelet, the prodigious school-boy detective. Also making an appearance are old foes Detective Ganimard and (in yet another copyright-defeating name change) Holmlock Shears. The battle of wills that ensues pulls Isidore through rural France as he tries to get to the bottom of Lupin’s motives. The Hollow Needle was originally serialized in the magazine Je Sais Tout from 1908 to 1909, and was translated into English in 1910. Arsène Lupin starred in many further stories and plays, and a direct sequel to this story, Le second visage d’Arsène Lupin, was written by Pierre Boileau and Pierre Ayraud in 1975.

The Testament
Troy Phelen is a self-made billionaire, one of the richest men in the United States. He is also eccentric, reclusive, confined to a wheelchair, and looking for a way to die. Nate O'Riley is a high-octane Washington litigator who's lived too hard, too fast, for too long. Emerging from his fourth stay in rehab he knows returning to the real world is always difficult, but this time it's going to be murder. Rachel Lane is a young woman who chose to give her life to God, who walked away from the modern world with all its strivings and trappings and encumbrances, and went to live and work with a primitive tribe of Indians in the deepest jungles of Brazil. In a story that mixes legal suspense with a remarkable adventure, their lives are forever altered by the startling secret of The Testament.
The Weight of Blood
'It is a long time since I have read a debut as impressive as Laura McHugh's The Weight of Blood. It is a chilling portrait of a small town in the Ozarks where violent men are protected and young women vanish.' Joan Smith, The Sunday Times People still whisper about Lucy Dane’s mother who vanished years ago from the town of Henbane, deep in the Ozark mountains. When one of Lucy’s friends is found murdered, Lucy feels haunted by the two lost women: by the mother she never knew, and the friend she couldn’t protect. But her search for answers, in a place where secrets are easily concealed, leads her to a chilling discovery. And with this revelation, she must grapple with the meaning of family, the secrets we keep, and the lengths we will go to protect the ones we love.
The Good Father
