Target: Phoenix Enterprises, an international combine of supersmugglers that the Hardys hold responsible for their father's death. But the boys are just beginning to realize how powerful the group is. High-tech weaponry, terrorism, and human suffering are their stock-in-trade. Led on by a beautiful woman, pursued by a trained assassin, the Hardys find danger at every turn. But they'll take any road and any risk to expose the truth-even if it leads across Europe and into the heart of the deadly Phoenix maze. =============== From inside the book: LEAP OF FAITH Frank and Joe pulled themselves onto the hotel roof. "We'd better get out of here before the guys who just crashed into our room figure out where we've gone," Joe told his brother. Frank pointed toward a door. "That looks like the exit-" Suddenly they heard the sound of footsteps echoing up the stairs, heading for the roof. "Too late!" Joe cried. "They're already on the way up!" "Where do we go now?" Frank said. "That's the only way off the roof!" Joe looked desperately toward the roof of the next building, which looked to be from five to fifteen feet away. Frank and Joe exchanged glances. Could they make it to the other roof in a single jump? The sound of pounding footsteps from the stairwell told them that they had no choice. Moving as one; the brothers raced toward the edge of the roof-and leapt into space!

by Joanna SchaffhausenPolice officer Ellery Hathaway and FBI profiler Reed Markham take on two difficult new cases in this stunning follow-up to The Vanishing Season. "A gripping and powerful read. It is what we call an edge-of-your-seat, rollercoaster of a thriller.

Forced into group therapy for victims of violent crime, Ellery immediately finds higher priorities than “getting in touch with her feelings.” For one, she suspects a fellow group member may have helped to convict the wrong man for a deadly arson incident years ago. For another, Ellery finds herself in the desperate clutches of a woman who survived a brutal rape. He is still out there, this man with the Spider-Man-like ability to climb through bedroom windows, and his victim beseeches Ellery for help in capturing her attacker.Ellery seeks advice from her friend, FBI profiler Reed Markham, who liberated her from a killer’s closet when she was a child. Reed remains drawn to this unpredictable woman, the one he rescued but couldn’t quite save. The trouble is, Reed is up for a potential big promotion, and his boss has just one condition for the new job—stay away from Ellery. Ellery ignores all the warnings. Instead, she starts digging around in everyone’s past but her own—a move that, at best, could put her out of work permanently, and at worst, could put her in the city morgue.

No Middle Name: The Complete Collected Jack Reacher Short Stories (Jack Reacher #7)
by Lee ChildTHE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING JACK REACHER SERIES • Don&’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher! The ultimate Jack Reacher experience: a thrilling new novella and eleven previously published stories, together for the first time in one pulse-pounding collection from Lee Child. No Middle Name begins with &“Too Much Time,&” a brand-new work of short fiction that finds Reacher in a hollowed-out town in Maine, where he witnesses a random bag-snatching but sees much more than a simple crime. &“Small Wars&” takes readers back to 1989, when Reacher is an MP assigned to solve the brutal murder of a young officer found along an isolated forest road in Georgia—and whose killer may be hiding in plain sight. In &“Not a Drill,&” Reacher tries to take some downtime, but a pleasant hike in Maine turns into a walk on the wild side—and perhaps something far more sinister. &“High Heat&” time-hops to 1977, when Reacher is a teenager in sweltering New York City during a sudden blackout that awakens the dark side of the city that never sleeps. Okinawa is the setting of &“Second Son,&” which reveals the pivotal moment when young Reacher&’s sharp &“lizard brain&” becomes just as important as his muscle. In &“Deep Down,&” Reacher tracks down a spy by matching wits with four formidable females—three of whom are clean, but the fourth may prove fatal. Rounding out the collection are &“Guy Walks into a Bar,&” &“James Penney&’s New Identity,&” &“Everyone Talks,&” &“The Picture of the Lonely Diner,&” &“Maybe They Have a Tradition,&” and &“No Room at the Motel.&”No suitcase. No destination. No middle name. No matter how far Reacher travels off the beaten path, trouble always finds him. Feel bad for trouble. Praise for No Middle Name &“Captivating . . . classic [Lee] Child . . . This volume demonstrates what his fans already know: he&’s a born storyteller and an astute observer.&”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) &“Lee Child, like his creation, always knows exactly what he&’s doing—and he does it well. Time in his company is never wasted.&”—Evening Standard

A firebomb attack at a Plummer property thrusts Cal into the spotlight as he saves a child from the burning building. But when Plummer enlists his help to track down the arsonists, Cal finds himself dealing with more than the ENS and his rapidly overwhelming codeine addiction. Time's running out and the temperature keeps rising. Manchester needs a hero and Cal Innes is the closest it has. PRAISE FOR RAY BANKS'S CAL INNES NOVELS Ray Banks writes with harshness, humour and elegance, and his punchy dialogue teems with vigorous authenticity. ? The Times Tough and assured . . . Banks is updating the noir novel with an utterly original sensibility. - Publisher's Weekly Bleakly, desperately funny, Ray Banks offers us a glimpse of what Samuel Beckett might have read like had he turned his hand to crime fiction. - Crime Always Pays Ray BanksOCOs writing is a dark delight, and 'Saturday's Child' is like blunt surgery from a cricket bat. Fast, hard, packed with madcap violence and twisted humor, itOCOs a bone-jarring ride through EnglandOCOs bleak underbelly. - Patrick Quinlan, author of Smoked 'Saturday's Child' is a knock-out, written with the kind of energy and passion that far too few writers can muster. Fresh and fierce, it raises the bar for hardboiled fiction on both sides of the Atlantic. - New York Times Bestseller Laura Lippman, author of What The Dead Know 'Saturday's Child' is fascinating, fresh and darkly funny. It will be an exotic entertainment for American readers of hard-boiled detective fiction. - Thomas Perry, author of Nightlife Banks wields language with a knifefighter's precision, with much the same result. From the first words to the last, this book flashes brilliantly. - Don Winslow, The Power Of The Dog and The Winter of Frankie Machine. Banks is part of the post-Rankin generation for whom hardboiled is not just a state of mind but a reality. Tough-guy colloquial prose and a pace fast enough to skin a rabbit, at the service of a tale of down-and-dirty realism: this is fiery stuff. - Maxim Jakubowski, The Guardian The writing's so urgent, so brutal, and just so obscenely real that it creates a whole new kind of 'dark' for a genre that's become a trifle stagnated in recent years. Hence this is a book anyone who's fallen out of love with the genre in these recent times, where the old quality has been severely lacking, simply needs to read. - Chris Pickering, Bookmunch . . . terrific, brooding and chilling prose -Tom Adair, The Scotsman . . . a fine example of energetic, visceral and compelling storytelling. . . This is properly thrilling stuff. - The Big Issue In Scotland"
