My Best Friend's Murder is by Polly Phillips. There are so many ways to kill a friendship . . . You're lying, sprawled at the bottom of the stairs, legs bent, arms wide. And while this could be a tragic accident, if anyone's got a motive to hurt you, it's me. Bec and Izzy have been best friends their whole lives. They have been through a lot together - from the death of Bec's mother to the birth of Izzy's daughter. But there is a darker side to their friendship. And Bec is about to reach breaking point. Then Izzy's body is found at the bottom of the stairs. It could have been an accident - perhaps she fell - but if the police decide to look for a killer, Bec is certain she will be the prime suspect. Because she knows better than anyone that those closest to you can hurt you the most. And that someone can only be pushed so far before they snap . .

Enemy at the Gates is by Vince Flynn and Kyle Mills. America is reeling from the national blackout that swept the nation, continuing to dig out of the power outage. And the new president is unlike any Mitch has worked with in the past; he is extremely dictatorial and sees cracks in America's democratic institutions that he believes can be exploited to put his family in power permanently. As Mitch backs away from the new president, he, in turn, questions Rapp's loyalty. Mitch decides to take a much needed break and moves to his house in Cape Town, where he gets pulled into a job with Nicholas Ward, the world's first trillionaire. It has been discovered that there is a mole in the CIA who's been digging through their systems for information on Ward so, after thwarting an attempt to kidnap him Uganda, Mitch makes it look like the abduction was successful.

Rapp, completely cut off from the agency, must uncover the identity of the mole and deal with him. But the situation is deeper and more complex than he ever could have imagined, involving the President of the United States himself.
