Download or read book Devolution written by Max Brooks and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The #1 New York Times bestselling author of World War Z is back with “the Bigfoot thriller you didn’t know you needed in your life, and one of the greatest horror novels I’ve ever read” (Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter and Recursion). FINALIST FOR THE LOCUS AWARD As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier’s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined . . . until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing—and too earth-shattering in its implications—to be forgotten. In these pages, Max Brooks brings Kate’s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it. Kate’s is a tale of unexpected strength and resilience, of humanity’s defiance in the face of a terrible predator’s gaze, and, inevitably, of savagery and death. Yet it is also far more than that. Because if what Kate Holland saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible. We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us—and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity. Part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it—and like none you’ve ever read before. Praise for Devolution “Delightful . . . [A] tale of supernatural mayhem that fans of King and Crichton alike will enjoy.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “The story is told in such a compelling manner that horror fans will want to believe and, perhaps, take the warning to heart.”—Booklist (starred review)

Download or read book Andy Knight and Valerie Dawson Series Starter Box Set written by Megan Daymond and published by FRACTURE Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-13 with total page 861 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two Gripping Australian Crime Thriller Series filled with mystery, suspense, and a touch of romance ... This Series Starter Box Set includes two full-length novels and two serial-style novellas: Just Play Along (Book 1, Andy Knight Series) When Andy and Mel’s double date turns into a snuff film, Andy fights back, killing one of her attackers, leading to an unwanted aftermath of attention and threats. Detective Daniel Connor links the attack to the recent discovery of six female bodies found buried in bushland on Sydney’s Northern Beaches — three double homicides now thought to be part of an organised snuff-film ring. When video of the attack is leaked online, the threats against the women escalate. Determined to find answers, Andy is caught in the middle of a deadly investigation. Connor vows to protect Andy and Mel, but as more suspects are uncovered, the more he fears for their lives. Valerie: Trapped (Part 1, Valerie Dawson Novella Series) Forced to pay a debt with deadly consequences … Valerie Dawson is forced into a life of crime when her wayward sister and two unknown men turn up at her Sydney apartment, demanding that she pay off her sister’s debt. She complies, believing that if she does what they want, then they will leave her and her family alone. But when the people closest to her are killed, she discovers there is no way out — she is trapped, caught in a web of corruption, where even the police cannot be trusted. She decides to fight for her freedom and finds an unexpected ally, but soon realises there is much more at stake and that her next move could be deadly. Valerie: Isolated (Part 2, Valerie Dawson Novella Series) Constant threats. A simple favour. Secrets, lies and betrayal uncovered … After the sudden turn of events that saved her life, Valerie Dawson’s survival now depends on stolen evidence remaining hidden and an alliance with a mysterious man named Blake. With constant threats from Max, a seemingly harmless favour ends with betrayal and devastating consequences. Valerie is left shaken, but pursues the truth, uncovering Detective Shane Young’s motives for helping her and her dead sister’s unexpected involvement. Bones of Deception (Book 2, Andy Knight Series) Six months after surviving a brutal attack, Andy finally believes she is moving on with her life, focusing on work and a new relationship with Detective Daniel Connor. Things appear to be going smoothly until an unexpected encounter and a morbid delivery arrives — a gift box, containing a single bone and a note: More will die, unless you die first … Detective Connor and his team suspect the incident is connected to Andy’s previous attack, but they soon discover Andy is not the only target on the killer’s radar. The killer somehow knows intimate details about Detective Connor and his team, and as more bones are delivered and more women disappear, it becomes clear that no one is safe. Australian English Spelling The Valerie Dawson novellas are designed to be read alongside the full-length novels in the Andy Knight Series and are best read in the order listed above. PLEASE NOTE: Each book in the Valerie Dawson Novella Series is a 'SERIAL SHORT READ' compared to the full-length standalone novels in the Andy Knight Series. Yes, that means there will be cliffhangers! RECOMMENDED READING ORDER Either 'Just Play Along' OR 'Valerie: Trapped' can be read first. Then, to avoid spoilers, the following reading order is recommended: 1. Just Play Along (Book 1, Andy Knight Series) 2. Valerie: Trapped (Part 1, Valerie Dawson Novella Series) 3. Valerie: Isolated (Part 2, Valerie Dawson Novella Series) 4. Bones of Deception (Book 2, Andy Knight Series) 5. Valerie: Bound (Part 3, Valerie Dawson Novella Series) 6. Valerie: Desperate (Part 4, Valerie Dawson Novella Series) 7. Hidden Lies (Book 3, Andy Knight Series) The reading order of the combined two series is flexible and most books can be read in your preferred order with only minor spoilers, but it is highly recommended to read Bones of Deception (Book 2, Andy Knight Series) before reading Valerie: Desperate (Part 4, Valerie Dawson Novella Series) as it contains major spoilers and should be read in the correct order.

Book excerpt: **THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER** "An unforgettable—and Hollywood-bound—new thriller... A mix of Hitchcockian suspense, Agatha Christie plotting, and Greek tragedy." —Entertainment Weekly The Silent Patient is a shocking psychological thriller of a woman’s act of violence against her husband—and of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive. Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London. Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations—a search for the truth that threatens to consume him....
