July
A
daughter disappears in the middle of the night.
What happens in the aftermath of this tragedy – after he search is
abandoned, after the TV crews move on to cover the latest horrific incident – is
the story of Coyote. There is a marriage
and a detective. There is a storm, a
talk show host, and a roasted boar.
People are murdered and things are hidden. Coyote skulk in the woods, a man stands by
the fence, and a tale emerges within this familiar landscape of the violent
unknown. Coyote is by Colin
Winnette.

Robert
B Parker’s The Devil Wins is by Reed Farrel Coleman. In the wake of a huge
storm, three bodies are discovered in the rubble of an abandoned factory building
in an industrial part of Paradise known as The Swap. One body, a man’s, wrapped
in a blue tarp, is only hours old. But found within feet of that body are the
skeletal remains of two teenage girls who had gone missing during a Fourth of
July celebration twenty-five years earlier. Not only does that crime predate
Jesse Stone’s arrival in Paradise, but the dead girls were close friends of
Jesse’s right hand, Officer Molly Crane. And things become even more
complicated when one of the dead girls mothers returns to Paradise to bury her
daughter and is promptly murdered. It’s up to police chief Jesse Stone to pull
away the veil of the past to see how all these murders are connected . . .

retirement. When he finds a woman’s body
in Amsterdam Harbour, his detective instincts take over, even though it’s not
his jurisdiction. Warned off

for the killer leads to the involvement of senior police officers, government
corruption in the highest places, Hungarian people traffickers, and a deadly
threat to his own family. The Harbour
Master is by Daniel Pembrey.
