About the Book

Lisa Scottoline, the #1 bestselling author of WHAT HAPPENED TO THE BENNETTS, presents another pulse-pounding domestic thriller about family, justice and the lies that tear us apart.

TJ Devlin is the charming disappointment in the prominent Devlin family, all of whom are lawyers at their highly successful firm --- except him. After a stint in prison and rehab for alcoholism, TJ can’t get hired anywhere except at the firm, in a make-work job with the title of investigator.

But one night, TJ’s world turns upside down after his older brother, John, confesses that he murdered one of their clients, an accountant he’d confronted with proof of embezzlement. It seems impossible coming from John, the firstborn son and Most Valuable Devlin.

TJ plunges into the investigation, seizing the chance to prove his worth and save his brother. But in no time, TJ and John find themselves entangled in a lethal web of deception and murder. TJ will fight to save his family, but what he learns might break them first.

Bernard Cornwell, author of Sharpe's Command: Richard Sharpe and the Bridge at Almaraz, May 1812

If any man can do the impossible, it’s Richard Sharpe. And the impossible is exactly what the formidable Captain Sharpe is asked to do when he’s sent on an undercover mission to a small village in the Spanish countryside, far behind enemy lines. For the quiet, remote village, sitting high above the Almaraz bridge, is about to become the center of a battle for the future of Europe. Two French armies march towards the bridge, one from the North and one from the South. If they meet, the British are lost. Only Sharpe's small group of men --- with their cunning and courage to rely on --- stand in their way. But they're rapidly outnumbered, enemies are hiding in plain sight, and as the French edge ever closer to the frontline, time is running out.

Jo Piazza, author of The Sicilian Inheritance

Sara Marsala barely knows who she is anymore after the failure of her business and marriage. On top of that, her beloved great-aunt Rosie passes away. But this opens an escape from her life and a window into the past by way of a plane ticket to Sicily, a deed to a possibly valuable plot of land and a bombshell family secret. Rosie believes that Sara’s great-grandmother Serafina, the family matriarch who was left behind while her husband worked in America, didn’t die of illness as family lore has it. She was murdered. Thus begins a twist-filled adventure that takes Sara all over the picturesque Italian countryside as she races to solve a mystery and learn the story of Serafina. As she discovers more about Serafina, she also realizes she is coming head-to-head with the same menacing forces that took down her great-grandmother.

Don Winslow, author of City in Ruins

Danny Ryan --- former dock worker, Irish mob soldier and fugitive from the law --- is now a Las Vegas casino mogul and billionaire silent partner in a group that owns two lavish hotels. Finally, Danny has it all: a beautiful house, a child he adores, and a woman he might even fall in love with. But when Danny tries to convert an old hotel into his dream resort, he triggers a war against Las Vegas power brokers, a powerful FBI agent bent on revenge, and a rival casino owner with dark connections of his own. To save his life and everything he loves, Danny must become the ruthless fighter he once was --- and never wanted to be again. Following CITY ON FIRE and CITY OF DREAMS, CITY IN RUINS is the explosive conclusion to Don Winslow’s genre-defining crime trilogy and the final book of his extraordinary career.

Ray Palen

Scott Carson is the pen name for legendary thriller writer Michael Koryta. I respect that Koryta’s love of horror is strong enough for him to write under a different name so that he receives the accolades he deserves for stepping out of his typical comfort zone. His latest effort, LOST MAN’S LANE, not only lives up to the hype but may be his best book to date. Read More

Marshall Miller would’ve remembered her face even if he hadn’t seen it on a MISSING poster. When a young woman goes missing in his small town, the investigation hinges on Marshall’s haunted sighting of her, crying in the back seat of a police car driven by a cop named Maddox. There’s only one problem: no local cop named Maddox exists. But the speeding ticket he handed to Marshall certainly does. Dealing with police and media is heady stuff for a teenager, the son of a single mother, but Marshall is sure he can handle it, until the shocking day when his reliability as a witness implodes. Now scorned and shamed, he finds unlikely allies as he confronts the ancient secrets behind his small town’s peaceful façade --- and learns the truth about his own family.
