THE CUCKOO’S CALLING

By Robert Galbraith

P649

MANILA, Philippines - When a troubled model falls to her death from a snow-covered Mayfair balcony, it is assumed that she has committed suicide.  However, her brother has his doubts, and calls in private investigator Cormoran Strike to look into the case. Strike is a war veteran wounded both physically and psychologically and his life is in disarray.  The case gives a financial lifeline, but it comes at a personal cost: the more he delves into the young model’s complex world, the darker things get and closer he gets a terrible danger.

MISTRESS

By James Patterson and David Ellis

P635

Ben isn’t like most people. Unable to control his racing thoughts, he’s a man consumed by his obsessions: movies, motorcycles, presidential trivia — and Diana Hotchkiss, a beautiful woman Ben knows he can never have. When Diana is found dead outside her apartment, Ben’s infatuation drives him on a hunt to find out what happened to the love of his life. Ben soon discovers that the woman he pined for was hiding a shocking double life. And now someone is out to stop Ben from uncovering the truth about Diana’s illicit affairs.

THE DOMINANT:

THE SUBMISSIVE TRILOGY

By Tara Sue Me

P425

Nathaniel West doesn’t lose control. As the playboy CEO of West Industries, he governs the boardroom during the day; as a strict dominant with exacting rules, he commands the bedroom at night. He never takes on inexperienced submissive, but when Abigail King’s application comes across his desk, he breaks his own restrictions and decides to test her limits. Abby’s combination of innocence and willingness is intoxicating, and Nathaniel is soon determined to collar her as his own. As long as she follows his orders and surrenders herself fully to him, no one will get hurt. But when Nathaniel begins falling for Abby on a deeper level, he realizes that the trust must go both ways and he has secrets which could bring the foundations of their entire relationship crashing down.

TWO GRAVES

By Preston & Child

P399

After his wife Helen is brazenly abducted before his eyes, Special Agent Pendergast furiously pursues the kidnappers, chasing them across the country and into Mexico. But then, things go terribly, tragically wrong; the kidnappers escape; and a shattered Pendergast retreats to his New York apartment and shuts out the world. But when a string of bizarre murders erupts across several Manhattan hotels—perpetrated by a boy who seems to have an almost psychic ability to elude capture—NYPD Lieutenant D’Agosta asks his friend Pendergast for help. Reluctant at first, Pendergast soon discovers that the killings are a message from his wife’s kidnappers.

When the kidnappers strike again at those closest to Pendergast, the FBI agent, filled anew with vengeful fury, sets out to track down and destroy those responsible. His journey takes him deep into the trackless forests of South America, where he ultimately finds himself face to face with an old evil that—rather than having been eradicated—is stirring anew... and with potentially world-altering consequences.

Now, the woman who rose so high is on the brink of a perilous fall. For when the tides of memory rise, the only thing that might save her is the truth.
