An overwhelmed new mother becomes obsessed with the unsolved disappearance of a young girl from her small Texas hometown and unearths her own family's dark secret.

“A mystery of remarkable scope, bristling with intelligence, beauty, and humanity. It is, quite simply: stunning.” —Gillian Flynn, author of&nbsp;Gone Girl
"A stunning, achingly beautiful and gripping mystery. Full of page-turning suspense, intrigue, and secrets…I loved it.” —Chris Whitaker, author of&nbsp;All the Colors of the Dark
An overwhelmed new mother becomes obsessed with the unsolved disappearance of a young girl from her small Texas hometown—and unearths her own family’s dark secret.
It’s 2011 and Deecie Jeffries’s missing person’s case in Austin, Texas, is still cold. New mom Bee, struggling with postpartum depression, is living in Portland, Maine, having left Austin–and those memories–far behind. Until Leo, her childhood crush and her estranged twin Gus’s best friend, suddenly resurfaces, drawing Bee back into their shared past.
Bee’s predictable life is upended, pushing her to return to her childhood home and piece together a neighborhood’s shattered history. Bee becomes consumed with a need to uncover the truth about Deecie’s disappearance and what happened to the families who lived across the field from one another—Gus, Leo, and their mothers: Mary, a homemaker, whose only escape is the local community theater, and Diana, a serious academic dedicated to her studies.
Told in multiple perspectives with two different timelines,&nbsp;The Undercurrent&nbsp;is a gripping portrait of motherhood, obsession, broken family bonds, and buried secrets.

Mountain of God

Michael Mann Project 2

Wenn der Glaube an eine große Verschwörung alles durchdringt, befindet sich die Wahrheit unweigerlich in einem Rückzugsgefecht. Das Fundament der Demokratie beginnt zu bröckeln. Aber wie kann es sein, dass Anhänger:innen von Verschwörungsideologien sich weder durch Interventionsversuche des privaten Umfelds, noch durch Gewaltexzesse der eigenen Community beirren lassen? Und warum wenden sich viele Menschen selbst dann nicht von der Ideologie ab, wenn Prognosen offensichtlich scheitern? 
 
 Dieses Buch macht deutlich, welche unglaubliche Wucht eine verschwörungsideologische Mobilisierung entfalten kann. Wie das Gift dieser Ideologie nach und nach in immer mehr Lebensbereiche von Menschen einsickern konnte. Und es zeigt, warum Schweigen und Hinnehmen keine Lösung sind.

God Help the Child

'Sensuously detailed . . . edgy . . . riveting' Financial TimesTwo strangers meet on a bus along a dusty road in rural France. Tati is a tough, work-worn widow, who runs the farm her late husband left behind, while trying to keep out of the way of her predatory in-laws. Jean is an odd, quiet man, recently out of prison, with nowhere to go. These lost souls recognize something in each other, and Jean becomes Tati's lodger and farm worker. In the still and heat of the summer, they labour together and, inevitably, begin to sleep together. Soon, however, their strange affair will become something altogether darker. First published in 1942 at the same time as Albert Camus' The Outsider, this is Simenon's existentialist masterpiece, exploring the dangerous mystery of who we are and what we desire. 'Published, like The Outsider, in 1942, and at least equal to Camus's work in portraying a doomed and alienated life' David Hare

The Night Gate spans three generations, taking us from war-torn London, the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, Berlin and Vichy France, to the deadly enemy facing the world in 2020.

THE 12 MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF&nbsp;THE LEWIS TRILOGY&nbsp;AND&nbsp;THE CHINA THRILLERS AWARD WINNING AUTHOR OF THE CWA DAGGER IN THE LIBRARY 2021 'Enzo MacLeod is one of the most unusual crime solvers I have ever met.'&nbsp;BookBrowse 'No one can create a more eloquently written suspense novel than Peter May.'&nbsp;New York Journal of Books In a sleepy French village, the body of a man shot through the head is disinterred by the roots of a fallen tree. A week later a famous art critic is viciously murdered in a nearby house. The deaths occurred more than seventy years apart. Asked by a colleague to inspect the site of the former, forensics expert Enzo Macleod quickly finds himself embroiled in the investigation of the latter. Two extraordinary narratives are set in train - one historical, unfolding in the treacherous wartime years of Occupied France; the other contemporary, set in the autumn of 2020 as France re-enters Covid lockdown. And Enzo's investigations reveal an unexpected link between the murders - the Mona Lisa. Tasked by the exiled General Charles de Gaulle to keep the world's most famous painting out of Nazi hands after the fall of France in 1940, 28-year-old Georgette Pignal finds herself swept along by the tide of history. Following in the wake of Da Vinci's Mona Lisa as it is moved from château to château by the Louvre, she finds herself just one step ahead of two German art experts sent to steal it for rival patrons - Hitler and Göring. What none of them know is that the Louvre itself has taken exceptional measures to keep the painting safe, unwittingly setting in train a fatal sequence of events extending over seven decades. Events that have led to both killings. The Night Gate&nbsp;spans three generations, taking us from war-torn London, the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, Berlin and Vichy France, to the deadly enemy facing the world in 2020. In his latest novel, Peter May shows why he is one of the great contemporary writers of crime fiction. LOVED&nbsp;THE NIGHT GATE?
