Books of the Month – More for October 2015

14th October 2015 by Anne James

The Burning Room

by Michael Connelly

IN THE LAPD’s Open Unsolved, not many murder victims die a decade after the crime. So when Orlando Merced finally succumbs to complications from being shot ten years earlier, Bosch catches a case in which the body is still fresh but any other evidence is virtually non-existent. Partnered with rookie detective Lucia Soto, Bosch begins to see political dimensions to the case – a case where, despite the seemingly impossible odds, failure to find the killer is simply not an option. It’s looking like Orlando Merced may not be the investigation’s only victim – and that includes Bosch himself.

Summer Dreams

by Nora Roberts

TY STARBACK and Asher Wolfe were the tennis world’s premier couple, until their passion nearly destroyed them both. Now, three years later, Asher is back on the circuit, determined to win. But even with her icy control in place she cannot resist Ty. Cynthia Fox once had a crush on racing car driver Lance Matthews, but now, a professional photographer, Foxy is long recovered from her teenage love. Then she is assigned to cover the racing season and comes face to face with the man who once rejected her. This time, however, the roles have been reversed, and Lance is chasing her !

Before the Storm

by Diane Chamberlain

HER LITTLE BOY has been accused of murder. How far will she go to protect him? When the local church is razed to the ground, dozens of trapped children manage to escape – many helped by 15-year-old Andy Lockwood. Born with Foetal Alcoholic Spectrum Disorder, Andy is more like a little boy than a teenager, but in the eyes of the people he saved he is a hero.

Laurel lost her son once through neglect and has spent the rest of her life determined to make up for her mistakes. Yet when suspicion of arson is cast upon Andy, Laurel must ask herself how well she really knows her son – and how far she will go to protect him.

Blind Alley

by Danielle Ramsey

DI JACK BRADY is riding high after the successful outcome of his previous case, but his world is about to come crashing down. A serial rapist is plaguing the streets of Whitley Bay. Three young women have been horribly abused and his boss and the press are screaming for answers.

Everything seems to point to his old friend and foe, gangster Martin Madley, though Brady still struggles to believe that he is capable of such acts. With time running out before the villain strikes again, Brady must follow every scrap of evidence. But there are forces at work that he knows nothing about, and his persistence is leading both him and those close to him ever further into danger…
