A Luz de Tina
by Richard Stooker Catia A. G. FernandesVinte e um anos depois, Paul Templeton ainda não sabe se no seu antigo sonho é ele quem viola e assassina a sua própria irmã. O assassino talhante escapa. Os pesadelos torturam Paul. Se não foi ele quem assassinou Tina, como pôde ele testemunhar o assassinato, sonhar que assistiu a tudo através de um espelho? Agora, uma bela jovem vem viver para o bairro, lembrando-lhe Tina. Estará também o assassino atrás dela? Embora Paul nunca tenha tocado em Tina de outra forma além da fraternal, ama-a como mulher. Enquanto ela esteve viva e 21 anos depois da sua morte macabra. Agora, um homem de negócios tailandês, acompanhado pela sua bela filha Khamnah, vem viver para o bairro de Paul. Khamnah tem tantas semelhanças com Tina, e isso magoa Paul. Também ela tem o brilho da luz do Mundo Oculto, o universo espiritual transcendente onde vive Tina. A luz brilhante do coração e da personalidade de Khamnah ajuda Paul a ignorar os escárnios céticos do psiquiatra Jack Harrison. Mas não consegue esquecer a ameaça do violador talhante que é procurado pela polícia. Dez mulheres nos últimos cinco meses. Um modus operandi similar ao do assassino de Tina, há 21 anos atrás. Paul teme pela vida de Khamnah, pois receia que a história se possa repetir. Nessa noite, sonha novamente, mas não é a cara de Tina que vê no espelho. Em vez disso, vê Khamnah sentada a escovar o cabelo, enquanto o assassino entra. Este conto NÃO é para si se: 1. Fica incomodado com referências a sexualidade "desviante". 2. Não consegue lidar com uma descrição não-gratuita de violação e assassinato. 3. Procura um conto erótico explícito para alimentar as suas próprias fantasias "desviantes". 4. Não quiser considerar as fronteiras entre a fantasia e a realidade, e entre a obsessão emocional e os poderes psíquicos. 5. Prefere histórias sobre pessoas "normais". (Embora,

by Ragnar JónassonA nova voz do policial nórdico 3 milhões de livros vendidos. Melhor Policial do Ano — The Sunday Times Tudo o que Una quer é ser professora, mas, até ao momento, tem sido incapaz de manter um emprego em Reiquiavique. Sem poupanças, sem vida amorosa e assombrada pelo suicídio do pai, a perspetiva de passar mais um inverno fechada no seu minúsculo apartamento parece-lhe insuportável. Assim, fazer as malas e mudar-se para Skálar, uma pequena aldeia piscatória com dez pessoas situada no extremo norte da Islândia, parece-lhe ser um baixo preço a pagar pela hipótese de endireitar a sua vida e voltar a ensinar. No entanto, à medida que a escuridão de um inverno rigoroso vai caindo sobre a aldeia, Una dá por si a passar cada vez mais tempo no pequeno sótão que alugou, a beber para esquecer a solidão, e assaltada por aparições de uma menina de vestido branco a cantar uma canção de embalar, que, noite após noite, a fazem acordar sobressaltada. E quando uma tragédia repentina traz ao de cima algo que os habitantes de Skálar procuram esconder a todo o custo, a inquietação de Una leva-a a desenterrar uma verdade que se manteve oculta durante gerações.Os elogios da crítica: «Um romance inquietante envolto num ambiente claustrofóbico.

Lyla prefere correr e dançar pelo bosque com os seus dois cães, os seus melhores amigos. Eles também gostam de andar livres e sem terem de responder a perguntas. Até que acontece o acidente.

A Menina do Papá
by Don Canaan Joana H. S. LopesNo primeiro volume da série de Mistérios de Liz Roberts,"Menina Bonita", percebemos que durante 20 anos, desde os 13 anos de idade até se casar, Laura Bedrosian tratava literalmente do seu pai, Armen. Mas Laura decide que tem de viver a sua própria vida e que os cuidados não podem continuar. Decide abandonar o seu pai, agora afetado pela doença de Alzheimer, numa feira popular sem qualquer documento de identificação, apenas um pedaço de papel no bolso onde constava escrito "O meu nome é Larry". O caso é entregue à detetive Liz Roberts, que havia sido abandonada pela sua mãe biológica, e ao investigar a identidade de Larry e na sua tentativa de localizar Laura, descobre vários segredos há muito escondidos em que alguns deles serão revelados em "Menina Bonita" e outros em "O Médico Dedicado ou o Despachante de Bebés". Os críticos dizem que a história "atrai-nos com apenas algumas pistas em relação ao seu destino ao mesmo tempo que se constrói um clímax insano impossível de adivinhar... senti-me imediatamente levado para dentro da história. As descrições eram tão vívidas, conseguia ver as personagens e o cenário na minha cabeça no desenrolar da história. O autor persistentemente me conduzia pelas suas voltas e reviravoltas e os seus mistérios numa história cativante". "Além de ser um excelente drama, este livro também pode ser considerado um ótimo thriller psicológico, (porque) cada personagem desta história tem os seus próprios problemas psicológicos".

The fairies then link up with a group of New Age travellers on their way to Stonehenge, who befriend them almost without question.Finally, a fight to the death between Titania and the terrifying and sadistic Morgan-le-Fey must take place before everyone can settle down into some form of harmony and peace.
A Million Heavens
by John BrandonOn the top floor of a small hospital, an unlikely piano prodigy lies in a coma, attended to by his gruff, helpless father. Outside the clinic, a motley vigil assembles beneath a reluctant New Mexico winter-strangers in search of answers, a brush with the mystical, or just an escape. To some the boy is a novelty, to others a religion. Just beyond this ragtag circle roams a disconsolate wolf on his nightly rounds, protecting and threatening, learning too much. And above them all, a would-be angel sits captive in a holding cell of the afterlife, finishing the work he began on earth, writing the songs that could free him. This unlikely assortment-a small-town mayor, a vengeful guitarist, all the unseen desert lives-unites to weave a persistently hopeful story of improbable communion.Upon the release of John Brandon's last novel, Citrus County, the New York Times declared that he "joins the ranks of writers like Denis Johnson, Joy Williams, Mary Robison and Tom Drury." Now, with A Million Heavens, Brandon brings his deadpan humor and hard-won empathy to a new realm of gritty surrealism-a surprising and exciting turn from one of the best young novelists of our time.
