A psychologist must decide whether her sleepwalking patient is a victim or a brutal serial killer in this unpredictable psychological crime thriller. A night to remember… if you make it out alive. Psychologist Maggie Connolly didn’t just stumble into trouble—she was born into it. Her humanitarian but slightly shady parents had no problem breaking the law when it served the greater good.

Tristan Simms claims to be a sleepwalker who has no idea what he does in the nighttime hours, though the wounds on his hands and grime beneath his fingernails indicate he’s doing anything but resting. He also believes that the police are stalking him and asserts that he made his money peddling the secrets of others. He might be a delusional whack job—it’s a clinical term.But her assessment shifts when a series of bodies are discovered. Stranger, the timeline for the murders matches that of her patient’s sleepwalking episodes.With the body count rising, and threats mounting from all sides, Maggie is running out of choices—and time. It seems that Maggie’s next on the kill list. And only one thing connects the victims: her patient, with his head full of secrets, his fingernails dark with blood.Intense, addictive, and full of complex and darkly hilarious characters you’ll never get enough of, Mind Games is a fast-paced psychological crime series for fans of Bones, Lie to Me, and The Blacklist.

Description:

Winner of the 2021 Page Turner Award, Book Award Prize. A dark, brooding thriller, following the treacherous journey of a fallen detective as he tries to piece his broken life back together.

Dylan Harper steps out of the taxi and into the night, free again after three long years in prison. His home is as he left it, cold and dark and empty. That is until he opens the door to find someone waiting inside.

His career in tatters, Harper must now operate as an unlicensed private investigator to uncover a clandestine drug kitchen operating somewhere within a rural community. A drug kitchen so well hidden that a multi-year police search has failed to find a single trace. All he has to go on is a torn beer bottle label and a shady informant who might be setting Harper up for his own demise.

A fantastic international thriller, full of suspense, and set on the beautiful West Coast of New Zealand. A police procedural novel that explores not only the operation of the law but the inner workings of a troubled man's soul. A small-town police mystery and a great read in the time-honoured tradition of hard-boiled crime fiction that will transport you back to the glory days of when Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett were at their moody best.

"An absolutely crackling, unputdownable mystery told by a narrator with one big, booming voice. I loved it." —Gillian Flynn, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Gone GirlOne of The Boston Globe's Best Books of the Year In her riveting debut, journalist Julia Dahl—a finalist for the Edgar and Mary Higgins Clark Awards—introduces a compelling new character in search of the truth about a murder and an understanding of her own heritage Just months after Rebekah Roberts was born, her mother, an Hasidic Jew from Brooklyn, abandoned her Christian boyfriend and newborn baby to return to her religion. Neither Rebekah nor her father have heard from her since. Now a recent college graduate, Rebekah has moved to New York City to follow her dream of becoming a big-city reporter. But she's also drawn to the idea of being closer to her mother, who might still be living in the Hasidic community in Brooklyn. Then Rebekah is called to cover the story of a murdered Hasidic woman. Rebekah's shocked to learn that, because of the NYPD's habit of kowtowing to the powerful ultra-Orthodox community, not only will the woman be buried without an autopsy, her killer may get away with murder. Rebekah can't let the story end there. But getting to the truth won't be easy—even as she immerses herself in the cloistered world where her mother grew up, it's clear that she's not welcome, and everyone she meets has a secret to keep from an outsider. "Fast-paced, suspenseful . . . rises above the crime-novel genre in its unusual psychological, spiritual and sociological dimensions, entering a world unfamiliar to most people." —The Washington Post

"[A] stellar sequel to A Nail Through the Heart . . . Smooth prose, appealing characters, and a twisting action-filled plot make this thriller a standout." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

The author of the Looking for Trouble travel book series, Poke Rafferty is ready to settle down in Bangkok with his fiancée, Rose, and his newly adopted daughter, Miaow. But trouble isn't ready to let him go; it's back in Poke's life with a vengeance, in the guise of his long-estranged father, Frank, the last person he ever wanted to see again. And Frank hasn't come empty-handed, arriving with a box of rubies, a wad of fraudulent identity papers, and one of the most dangerous gangsters in China in hot pursuit. With a rogue American Secret Service agent targeting Rose for her unwitting part in a North Korean counterfeiting operation, Poke can see trouble descending from everywhere to attack those he loves—and it will take every skill he possesses to keep them, and himself, alive.
