The Ocean Dark
Rogan Jack
The Ocean Dark is a riveting novel of suspense from Christopher Golden, author of Tin Men, written under the pseudonym Jack Rogan.In the uncharted waters of the Caribbean, far from the usual shipping lanes, lies a mysterious island surrounded by a graveyard of sunken ships — an island so remote that it’s the perfect rendezvous point for a handful of Central American arms dealers and the Antoinette, a gun-smuggling cargo ship out of Miami. Amid the wreckage of ships new and old, the crew of the Antoinette — and the undercover FBI agent on board — enter what looks like a haven for modern pirates, only to discover that it hides something far more terrifying.In Washington, two Department of Defense scientists might understand what is about to happen. On an FBI ship monitoring the Antoinette’s illegal trade, armed agents might be able to intervene. But this assumes that the Antoinette’s crew survives their first encounter with a creature virtually unknown to man, yet whose eerie songs nevertheless echo down the corridors of mankind’s darkest legends.

The One. Единственный [litres]
Маррс Джон
Взгляните на своего партнера и скажите честно: он (или она) действительно тот самый ЕДИНСТВЕННЫЙ? Вы в этом уверены? Есть способ проверить! Открыт ген идеальной совместимости. Все, что требуется, – простой тест ДНК, и программа сама обнаружит вашу вторую половинку, того, кто создан природой исключительно для вас – как и вы для него. Интересно? Готовы пройти тестирование? Даже если у вас уже есть любимый человек? А что, если программа скажет, что он вам не подходит, – расстанетесь? Что, если ваш избранник окажется сильно старше или моложе, одного с вами пола… или вообще серийным убийцей? Пять разных людей получили сообщение о том, что идеальный партнер для них найден. Каждый вот-вот встретит свою настоящую любовь. Но будущее в духе «и жили они долго и счастливо» уготовано не всем. Родственные души тоже имеют свои секреты – каждый мрачнее, страшнее… и убийственнее другого.Если бы простой ДНК-тест точно определял вашу вторую половинку – согласились бы вы его сделать? Эта умная, захватывающая история доказывает, что даже с помощью науки настоящая любовь – это всегда непросто. Sunday Mirror Не просто психологический триллер, а как будто очень длинный новый эпизод «Черного зеркала». И написано с таким знанием дела, что поневоле думаешь: такое может и на самом деле произойти. Peterborough Telegraph Сплошное удовольствие читать такую ни на что не похожую, умную, заставляющую задуматься книгу. Питер Джеймс Мрачный роман для посмеивающихся над Днем Святого Валентина. The New York Post Чтение, влекущее в темные глубины. Есть что переосмыслить. The Sun Шок на каждой следующей странице. Wall Street Journal Да уж, пути «настоящей любви» более чем неисповедимы… Это завораживает. Library Journal Увлекательный и крайне правдоподобный триллер Маррса поднимает интересные вопросы о нашем будущем, где наука станет играть первую скрипку. Booklist Маррс способен заинтриговать одновременно и романтиков, и скептиков. Kirkus Reviews |

An eleven-year-old boy’s violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City’s most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

The Overton Window
Beck Glenn
A plan to destroy America, a hundred years in the making, is about to be unleashed… can it be stopped?There is a powerful technique called the Overton Window that can shape our lives, our laws, and our future. It works by manipulating public perception so that ideas previously thought of as radical begin to seem acceptable over time. Move the Window and you change the debate. Change the debate and you change the country.For Noah Gardner, a twentysomething public relations executive, it's safe to say that political theory is the furthest thing from his mind. Smart, single, handsome, and insulated from the world's problems by the wealth and power of his father, Noah is far more concerned about the future of his social life than the future of his country.But all of that changes when Noah meets Molly Ross, a woman who is consumed by the knowledge that the America we know is about to be lost forever. She and her group of patriots have vowed to remember the past and fight for the future – but Noah, convinced they're just misguided conspiracy-theorists, isn't interested in lending his considerable skills to their cause.And then the world changes.An unprecedented attack on U.S. soil shakes the country to the core and puts into motion a frightening plan, decades in the making, to transform America and demonize all those who stand in the way. Amidst the chaos, many don't know the difference between conspiracy theory and conspiracy fact – or, more important, which side to fight for.But for Noah, the choice is clear: Exposing the plan, and revealing the conspirators behind it, is the only way to save both the woman he loves and the individual freedoms he once took for granted.After five back-to-back #1 New York Times bestsellers, national radio and Fox News television host Glenn Beck has delivered a ripped-from-the-headlines thriller that seamlessly weaves together American history, frightening facts about our present condition, and a heart-stopping plot. The Overton Window will educate, enlighten, and, most important, entertain – with twists and revelationsno one will see coming.

The Paris Vendetta
Berry Steve
The only thing rarer than the vintage editions Cotton Malone sells in his Copenhagen bookshop is the time he actually gets to spend there. Retirement has been anything but relaxing for the onetime U.S. government operative, who's been drawn into one perilous adventure after another, crisscrossing the globe from the Sinai Desert to Antarctica, while racing to uncover some of the most precious secrets in recorded history.Back home in Denmark, Malone's barely had a chance to rest and regroup after his last high-risk mission when trouble comes knocking again. Actually, it breaks and enters-in the form of an American Secret Service agent with a pair of would-be assassins on his heels. Malone has his doubts about the anxious young man, but narrowly surviving a ferocious firefight convinces Malone to follow his unexpected new ally into the night-and into another all-too-close encounter with certain danger.Their first stop is the secluded country estate of Malone's good friend Henrik Thorvaldsen. The wily Danish tycoon's eyes and ears around the world have uncovered the insidious plans of the Paris Club, a cabal of multimillionaires out to manipulate the global economy. Only by matching wits with a murderous terrorist-for-hire, foiling a catastrophic attack, and plunging into a desperate hunt for the legendary lost treasure of Napoleon Bonaparte can Malone hope to avert international financial anarchy. But Thorvaldsen's objective is much more personal: to avenge at any cost the murder of his beloved son by the larcenous aristocrat at the heart of the conspiracy. Through the storied streets and cathedrals of Paris, a breathless game of duplicity and death will be played, all to claim a prize of untold value-or to suffer consequences of unthinkable magnitude.
