Overview:

Sometimes the one who broke your heart is the one who needs saving the most.

Piper Sandervale never thought she’d ever see Sasha Koval again, not since he'd taken her heart, ripped it out and obliterated it.

She’s not willing to give him anything but a taste of his own medicine, and this may be her chance for payback. But is she only getting in way over her head?

Even as she plots her revenge, Piper discovers that something has changed with Sasha, and she finds herself struggling to justify holding on to past hurts as he continues his quest for atonement.

The Blood of Gods Conn Iggulden

The Blood of Gods Conn Iggulden





Overview:

The fifth and final instalment of the Emperor series.


Julius Caesar has been assassinated. A nation is in mourning. Revenge will be bloody.


Rome’s great hero Julius Caesar has been brutally murdered by his most trusted allies. While these self-appointed Liberatores seek refuge in the senate, they have underestimated one man: Caesar’s adopted son Octavian, a man whose name will echo through history as Augustus Caesar.


Uniting with his great rival Mark Antony, Octavian will stop at nothing to seek retribution from the traitors and avenge his father’s death. His greatest hatred is reserved for Brutus, Caesar’s childhood friend and greatest ally, now leader of the conspirators.


As the people take to the streets of Rome, the Liberatores must face their fate. Some flee the city; others will not escape mob justice. Not a single one will die a natural death. And the reckoning will come for Brutus on the sweeping battlefield at Philippi.


This is a beautifully written book that starts with the assassination of Julius Caesar by Brutus and the group calling themselves the Liberatores. Mark Anthony soon gives the funeral oration for Caesar inciting riots among the roman citizens, causing fires and the Senate house to burn down. Mark Anthony has the will of Julius Caesar read and finds Octavian is named to inherit most of Caesars property and money. Octavian returns to Rome and joins forces with Mark Anthony. The book moves at a decent pace and has fantastic battle scenes and pulls you into the sight and sounds of ancient Rome.

The Absent One Jussi Adler-Olsen

The Absent One  Jussi Adler-Olsen





Overview:

New York Times bestseller Jussi Adler-Olsen returns with the second book in his electrifying Department Q series.

In The Keeper of Lost Causes, Jussi Adler-Olsen introduced Detective Carl Mørck, a deeply flawed, brilliant detective newly assigned to run Department Q, the home of Copenhagen’s coldest cases. The result wasn’t what Mørck—or readers—expected, but by the opening of Adler-Olsen’s shocking, fast-paced follow-up, Mørck is satisfied with the notion of picking up long-cold leads. So he’s naturally intrigued when a closed case lands on his desk: A brother and sister were brutally murdered two decades earlier, and one of the suspects—part of a group of privileged boarding-school students—confessed and was convicted.

But once Mørck reopens the files, it becomes clear that all is not what it seems. Looking into the supposedly solved case leads him to Kimmie, a woman living on the streets, stealing to survive. Kimmie has mastered evading the police, but now they aren’t the only ones looking for her. Because Kimmie has secrets that certain influential individuals would kill to keep buried . . . as well as one of her own that could turn everything on its head.

Every bit as pulse-pounding as the book that launched the series, The Absent One delivers further proof that Jussi Adler-Olsen is one of the world's premier thriller writers.

The Aftermath Rhidian Brook

The Aftermath  Rhidian Brook



 

Overview:

The Aftermath by Rhidian Brook is a superbly controlled emotional thriller of passion, betrayal and conscience, set in post-War Germany.

'Masterly ... the story develops with many a deft twist ... Brook wrings every drop of feeling out of a gripping human situation, and his vignettes of war-ravaged Hamburg are superb' Mail on Sunday, Novel of the Week

'Rhidian Brook takes a piece of history I thought I knew well and breaks it open. The Aftermath is a compelling, surprising and moving novel' Sadie Jones, author of The Outcast

'A moving, always enthralling journey ... Rhidian Brook has written a brilliant novel' Joseph O'Neill, author of Netherland

Hamburg, 1946. Thousands remain displaced in what is now the British Occupied Zone. Charged with overseeing the rebuilding of this devastated city and the de-Nazification of its defeated people, Colonel Lewis Morgan has requisitioned a fine house on the banks of the Elbe, where he will be joined by his grieving wife Rachael and only remaining son Edmund.

But rather than force its owners, a German widower and his traumatised daughter, to leave their home, Lewis insists that the two families live together. In this charged and claustrophobic atmosphere all must confront their true selves as enmity and grief give way to passion and betrayal.

The Aftermath is a stunning novel about our fiercest loyalties, our deepest desires and the transforming power of forgiveness.

'Arresting, unsettling and compelling; suffused with suffering and hope' Claire Messud, author of The Emperor's Children

The Aftermath is being developed as a feature film by Ridley Scott's production company Scott Free and BBC Films.

The Redeemer Jo Nesbo

The Redeemer Jo Nesbo





Overview:

A fantastically gripping thriller from the best-selling author of The Snowman.

Like all of the thrillers Jo Nesbø has written about brooding Oslo police investigator Harry Hole, The Redeemer arrives on these shores upon a tide of glowing notices. The Globe and Mail calls it a "tour de force," The London Times reports that Nesbø is "touching the summit," and the Danish newspaper Berlingske Tidende promises (somewhat alarmingly) that the author "will nail you to the couch for hours on end."

I can't stand Nesbø's books. That includes The Redeemer, which, like his earlier novels, strikes me as pat, lurid and, above all dull, moving at a fatally sedate pace.

The problem is those good reviews. I have no reason to doubt their sincerity or the discernment of Nesbø's millions of admirers. When such a troubling gap exists, perhaps it is best to acknowledge the irreducible subjectivity of reading, which the judicious third-person voice of most book reviews aspires (correctly!) to transcend. All I can say is that I didn't like The Redeemer; I don't feel confident that it means you won't.

Part of the reason for my distaste is sentences like this: "Harry was six feet and four inches of sullen alcoholic, and the fact that he was a brilliant detective mildly worked in his favor, but no more than that." Hole is a classic noir anti-hero, which is to say that he is a genius surrounded by only two sorts of people, acolytes and incompetents; that his flaws are glamorous, noble and sexually irresistible; and that we are supposed to be in awe of his genius (nevermind that the author often relies on fantastic coincidence to resolve his plotlines) and at ease with his ugly extra-judicial choices.

The case on which Harry brings this doomed allure to bear in The Redeemer occurs in the frigid Christmas season of Norway, when a Croat hit man kills a member of the Salvation Army. Nesbø does a good job of portraying this Christian institution, whose quasi-military command structure encourages abuse and corruption, and also wins our unlikely sympathy for the murderer, who is tormented by his past as a child soldier.

These minor triumphs are not surprising, because Nesbø is indisputably talented. (The Snowman is the best and most propulsive showcase of his skills.) He has wit and the ability to surprise. But The Redeemer is nevertheless a plodding, interminable book, populated by flat characters, whose portentous religious overtones reach a pitch of tedium Dan Brown might feel proud to attain.

In one of the few moments when Harry threatens to burst into a third dimension in The Redeemer, he says, "I believe in the next promise … that people can keep a promise even though they broke the last one." It is a moving and true sentiment. But readers are ruthless, and for my part, though I have tried faithfully to like him, Nesbø has broken one too promises.

Overview:

Sometimes all you need is Patience.

Life’s been hard for Zeke. Being a punching bag for his alcoholic father has turned him into stone. Not even the dodgy trailer park he lives in can scare him.

When he meets Patience, she finds all his broken pieces and puts him back together, but she’s a ray of light in his shadowed life and the last thing he wants to do is bring her into his dark world.

Zeke isn’t the only one who’s broken, and for the first time, in a long time, Patience feels alive. Her black and white world gets a shot of color when she meets Zeke. He’s unlike anyone she’s ever met with his tattoos, piercings, and blunt honesty.

UNTIL I BREAK M. Leighton

UNTIL I BREAK  M. Leighton





Overview:

"I’m intrigued. Tempted beyond what I’ve ever been before. To know her, to open her up. To break her."

In love, sometimes what you fear most is exactly what you need.

Laura Drake is an author. She writes bestselling paranormal romances that continue to top the charts. She is sharp. She is confident. She is in control.

And she doesn’t exist.

Samantha Jansen is the woman behind the wig, the woman most of the world doesn’t know exists. She is shy. She is insecure. She is nothing like her main character or her alter ego. She is scarred—deeply scarred—by a past she can’t let go of and a present she can’t make peace with.

Samantha’s dreams are consumed by one man, the broken hero from her books. Mason Strait is both her wildest fantasy and her most terrifying nightmare.

When Samantha meets Alec Brand, a corporate consultant, it is as though Mason has come to life. Alec is handsome to a fault, as elegant as he is arrogant, and more intense than any man has a right to be.

Samantha is soon sucked into a world that mirrors the fiction she writes. Just like her main character, Daire Kirby, Samantha finds herself unable to resist the forbidden lure of Alec. And just like Daire, she also finds that she is faced with taking a chance on a man who could either set her free or destroy her.

The scale tilts toward destruction when Samantha finds out that Alec is as much a work of fiction as Mason. And he has scars of his own, scars that could ruin them both.
