Dark Crime Fiction

A depraved past has shaped a man into the twisted serial killer he is today. His obsession with the color red, and his lust for blood, leads to inventive ways to kill his captives. Who is his next victim, and can she be his salvation?

Just as this nightmare began, I once again find myself bound, destination unknown. However, this time, my kidnapper is the man who shattered my world beyond repair. Aleksei Popov - Russia’s number one mobster, and the man I was sold to. His intentions for me are clear - submit, obey him, and call him master - but I won’t surrender. I’m not like the other girls. Whether that’s a blessing or curse, I’ve yet to decide. The problem is, my disobedience intrigues my captor all the more. When we arrive in Russia, the rules change.

Lauren Kaine has everything she ever wanted—a fabulous home, a shiny Lexus, a bright 16-year-old son, and a loving husband with a lucrative internet career. Tonight, she walks hand-in-hand with William beneath the lustrous Seattle sky, celebrating 22 years of marriage. But they’re not alone.

The tinted windows hide the driver’s face, and it speeds away. Still mourning, Lauren sets out to find her husband’s killer.

Thrilling crime stories about cars, driving, and the road from the world's best-selling and critically acclaimed writers.

We all share the roads, and our cars link us together.

Another planet closer to Earth than Erik's moon gives up its secrets, providing Erik and Jia with clues that could lead to answers they’ve been seeking.

Two years ago, a small moon in a far-off system was set to be the location of the first intergalactic war between humans and an alien race. It didn't happen. However, something was found that many are willing to kill to keep secret.
