    The Fourth Angel (Georgia Skeehan/FDNY Thrillers, #1) (eBook, ePUB)
    Few women make it into the macho ranks of New York City's Bravest-the FDNY-where brute force and brotherhood are the only respected currencies. Fewer still get promoted to arson investigator. But New York City firefighter Georgia Skeehan is no ordinary woman. A single mom and motorcycle enthusiast, she's tormented by a fatal mistake and her own fears that she can never live up to her hero firefighter dad, who died in the line of duty. When a Manhattan building goes up in flames, incinerating dozens of prominent New Yorkers, Georgia is tapped to help solve one of the city's most gruesome arson crimes ever. Everything about this blaze is shrouded in mystery. The biblical intensity of the fire. Its connection to other arsons. The strange reticence within her own department. And most of all, the eerie, scripture-laden taunts of a madman who keeps raising the stakes until even Georgia herself is a target. To stop an even more catastrophic inferno, Georgia will have to wrestle with both the hard science of arson investigation and the backroom politics of big-city firefighting. The only way out of this scorcher is through it.

    The Wedding Bait (Golden Years, #1) (eBook, ePUB)
    You are cordially invited to…a hot mess. "Ice Queen" Tove Nilsen has it all: a successful career as a political consultant, beauty, a wonderful daughter who's about to be married…and a gaslighting, selfish disaster of an ex-husband who's just RSVP'd "yes" to the wedding. On top of that, he's bringing wife number six with him-a woman who's a mere 5 years older than their daughter. Oh, and she's a literal supermodel. Tove's always handled everything on her own, but now she's out of her depth until she decides to hire a man to pose as her date for the weekend-long event. Enter Patrick Mercer, retired escort. His easy confidence soothes Tove's ragged nerves and enables her to face her ex with her head high. Even better, he infuriates the other man, who can't make Tove the target for his usual taunts about her single status. Everything's going according to plan as the events surrounding the wedding unfold, but there's a slight complication: for the first time in his career, Patrick is falling for a client. And Tove's frozen heart is dangerously close to thawing for him.

    Obsessed , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 585min
    I kill, therefore I am.... Voices slam through the corridor of his wounded mind. The words of his dead sister cry out. His parents' taunts fill the silent room where he sits and waits - waits for the murderous rage, filling him with strength, driving him to kill, to touch the cold flesh, taste the warm blood - to feel alive again.... A witness has seen him, but his killing only turns her on and now she wants to protect him. His wife suspects him, but the private detective she hired cannot stop him. Joe MacAree fears nothing - except that he may no longer be human.

    Petrified to stay yet horrified to leave, 16-year-old Remington Russell finds himself prey to a ruthless psychopath.

His stalker is creepier than the worst nightmare the teenager has ever lived through. He can't decide what's worse - the way she lurks about in the shadows, how she taunts him while he' s awake, what she does to him while he sleeps, the photographs, or perhaps finding out what she did to the guy he had to bury upon his arrival to Troy.  (Warning: This is the most intense of the books in the Harmony series. It's more of a thriller than a mystery, so if you're a bit squeamish, this might not be the book for you.) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael S Ables.
