Book excerpt: The Special Dead is the thrilling tenth book in Lin Anderson's forensic crime series featuring Rhona MacLeod. When Mark is invited back to Leila's flat and ordered to strip, he thinks he's about to have the experience of his life. Waking later he finds Leila gone from his side. Keen to leave, he opens the wrong door and finds he's entered a nightmare; behind the swaying Barbie dolls that hang from the ceiling is the body of the girl he just had sex with. Rhona MacLeod's forensic investigation of the scene reveals the red plaited silk cord used to hang Leila to be a cingulum, a Wiccan artefact used in sex magick. Sketches of sexual partners hidden in the dolls provide a link to nine powerful men, but who are they? As the investigation continues, it looks increasingly likely that other witches will be targeted too. Working the investigation is the newly demoted DS Michael McNab, who is keen to stay sober and redeem himself with Rhona, but an encounter with Leila's colleague and fellow Wiccan Freya Devine threatens his resolve. Soon McNab realizes Freya may hold the key to identifying the men linked to the dolls, but the Nine will do anything to keep their identities a secret. Follow Rhona MacLeod in more forensic thrillers with None but the Dead, Follow the Dead, Sins of the Dead and Time for the Dead.

But when I rescue a drop-dead gorgeous Texan spitfire in the middle of a storm, I start to realize just how lonely I’ve been. I shouldn’t start anything with Raelynn, but my heart has other plans. Now my past is catching up with me. I’m on the wrong side of a whole lot of crap, and the only way out? Letting Raelynn in. I’m putting her in danger. So why can’t I walk away?

Book excerpt: Two FBI agents investigate a shady real-estate mogul and the mob in Atlantic City in this “hilarious adventure” (Publishers Weekly). A celebrity real estate tycoon wants to open the biggest casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey—the only problem being that he still owes millions to the mob, and he’s not quite as rich as he seems to be . . . As FBI agents Mike Tozzi and Cuthbert Gibbons investigate, the story soon involves an oversexed trophy wife, a Mafia boss who pretends to be a mental patient, his sister (the nun), a championship prizefight, and Gibbons’s reluctant wedding preparations, in a witty killer cocktail of a crime novel from an Edgar and Anthony Award–nominated author. “The pacing far exceeds the legal requirements for crime thriller. Bad Luck, a novel filled to the brim with born losers, turns up a lucky seven.” —People “Bruno drives deep into Elmore Leonard territory . . . It’s like a giant box of chocolates without a single dud.” —Kirkus Reviews
