Download or read book Shadow Valley written by Nik Xandir Wolf and published by Kelp Books. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Pushcart-nominated author, Nik Xandir Wolf, comes a #1 best-selling debut suspense thriller. *A young couple accidentally kills a crooked cop and goes on the run, in Shadow Valley, a bestselling new release that Kirkus Reviews calls, “Consistently fast-paced and entertaining.” It’s 1988 and Heath Walker, who spent most of his life in group homes, bartends and sells weed to keep the lights on for his ailing foster mom. When Heath meets and quickly falls for the brazen and beautiful Rori Burke at his bar, he kicks off a series of events that leave both his mother and a cop dead, and Rori’s father—a crooked small-town police chief—on their trail. As the young couple tears away on their journey from Santa Cruz communes to cartel territory in Baja, Heath carries with him a ring that may hold the answers to what he’s been searching for his whole life: the identity of his real parents: a retired Mercenary and AWOL CIA Agent. As Heath and Rori’s journey grows ever more perilous, Heath not only has to stay one step ahead of Burke and the cartel, but begins to question why he is so surprisingly good at hurting the dangerous people who cross his path, and whether he is really any different than the men hunting him. Finally, south of the border, all of Heath and Rori’s past and present demons converge, bringing Heath closer than he’ll ever know to the Angel of Death who wears his same ring. "Consistently fast-paced and entertaining," -Kirkus Reviews "Shadow Valley is a perfect noir, violent, gritty, and rooted in place...a masterwork." - Tod Goldberg, NY Times Bestselling Author "Shadow Valley is one of the best rides I've taken in a long while. Fast, smart, and mesmerizing--this both introduces and establishes Wolf as a powerful new voice." - Rob Roberge, Author of Liar, and Cost of Living "Get ready to hold on to your seat belt...Shadow Valley is definitely a fast-paced crime thriller story with lots and lots of plot twists that you will not see coming! I enjoyed this book and can't wait to read more by Nik Xandir Wolf." -Goodreads Reviewer "That vital blend of connection, passion, brutality, and poetry powers the novel...with a pared-down lyricism finding beauty in life without overstating it." -Publishers Weekly

Download or read book The Sweet Second Life of Darrell Kincaid written by Catherine Robertson and published by Penguin Random House New Zealand Limited. This book was released on 2011-09-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A romping chick-lit with heart-ache, misunderstandings, travel and love. No one knows 'happy endings' like romance novelist Darrell Kincaid. She's delivered eight of them to her readers with pleasure. But it's not to be with book number nine. In the act of adding the final full stop, Darrell has a revelation: it's not the ending that really matters but what comes next. Darrell now sees that when her husband Tom died (twenty-one months and three days ago, but who's counting?) she lost more than the man she loved. She lost her own 'happy ever after'. The life she expected to live has gone, vanished forever in a puff of fickle, unfair smoke. Darrell knows she has a choice. She can stay in New Zealand and live a half-life, or she can leave in search of something - perhaps someone - else. So Darrell decides upon London, the least romantic capital she knows (why set yourself up for disappointment?). Armed with Nancy Mitford's Love In A Cold Climate as her guide to proper Englishness and the ideal romantic hero, she sets out to live the sweet second life she deserves.

Voices The Christmas rush is at its peak in a grand Reykjavík hotel when Inspector Erlendur is called in to investigate a murder. As Christmas Day approaches, Erlendur must deal with his difficult daughter, pursue a possible romantic interest, and untangle a long-buried web of malice and greed to find the murderer.
