The San Diego Case Files

Rose K: Dead Man's List

Dead Man's List

*Pre-order the brand new novel in The San Diego Case Files series from Sunday Times bestseller Karen Rose* 'High wire suspense that keeps you riveted' Lisa Gardner * When homicide Detective Kit McKittrick and psychologist Sam Reeves discover a mutilated body in the desert outside San Diego, any number of people could be on their suspect list. The murder victim, local Councillor Brooks Munro, was a hated figure. Following the killer's trail, it becomes clear that those who abducted Brooks - and his prized Ferrari - went to extreme lengths to cover their tracks and wipe out any witnesses. As Kit and her team delve deeper, they uncover a twisted blackmail scheme worth millions of dollars. Brooks hadn't only been forcing money from his wealthy acquaintances, he'd also kept a secret list of their wrongdoings as protection - to be revealed on his death. But now he is dead, where's the list? Who was helping with the extortion scheme? And who would kill to stop the blackmail and prevent the list becoming public? 'A riveting story' Daily Mail 'Intense, complex and unforgettable' James Patterson READERS LOVE KAREN ROSE: 'Karen Rose never disappoints!' 'The characters are so well described you feel as if they are real people' 'I love this author's writing. Each book is like meeting up with old friends' 'I just couldn't put it down, I'd definitely recommend this author' 'It is just painstaking waiting for her next novel'

the gripping new thriller from the bestselling author

"Homicide Detective Kit McKittrick's latest case exposes San Diego's seedy underbelly in this nerve-shattering tale of romantic suspense from New York Times bestselling author Karen Rose. On a long-anticipated second date with police psychologist Dr. Sam Reeves-right as things are getting steamy-Kit stumbles across the mutilated body of a local San Diego politician. The politician is loved by many of his constituents but is hated and reviled by many more. That the suspect list is long is no surprise to anyone, but exactly who ends up on it stuns Kit and her team. As the SDPD reveal the victim's sinister dealings, Kit and Sam are forced to navigate the lawless world of the city's most rich and powerful citizens to find answers. But time is rapidly running out, with their sources of information dropping like flies as the killer methodically eliminates loose ends-and anyone else who stands in the way."--

A Thorn in the Rose

From the No. 1 internationally bestselling author, Lars Kepler, comes another twisty murder mystery. ________________________ Private Detective Julia Stark is hired to solve an impossible case: a deceased previous lover is haunting a theatre, determined to kill. Famous actress, Bianca Salo, is convinced her dead fiancé is stalking her. Just the night before, she tells Julia, she'd woken to find him standing over her bed, and a short while ago, he had broken into her dressing room and set fire to her dress. It's been three years since Bianca was told of her fiancé's sudden passing in a hotel room in Helsinki. She was in Stockholm at the time, playing the female lead in Macbeth, and collapsed on stage in her grief. The entire run was cancelled just a week after the premiere. Now, the ensemble and director have a second chance to perform the ill-fated tragedy. Julia accompanies Bianca to the rehearsals, to watch over her but to also survey the rest of the cast. Almost none of the actors have alibis for the incidents, and each of them have their own reasons to want to harm Bianca. Julia asks her ex-husband, Sid, to help investigate, and together, they try to solve the strange happenings. Then, things shift and it seems the stalker has entered the final, active phase of his pursuit, which Julia knows often ends in violence and death. Will she be able to find him before it's curtains for Bianca...?

Can she find the killer before the curtains fall?
