Alles begann an dem Tag, als der zwölfjährige Eddie den Kreidemann zum ersten Mal traf. Der Kreidemann war es auch, der Eddie auf die Idee mit den Zeichnungen brachte: So konnten er und seine Freunde sich geheime Botschaften zukommen lassen. Und erst einmal hat es Spaß gemacht - bis die Figuren sie zur Leiche eines jungen Mädchens führten. Das ist 30 Jahre her, und Eddie denkt, die Vergangenheit liegt hinter ihm. Dann bekommt er einen Brief, der zwei Dinge enthält.

Em 1986, Eddie e os amigos passam a maior parte dos dias andando de bicicleta pela pacata vizinhança em busca de aventuras. Os desenhos a giz são seu código secreto: homenzinhos rabiscados no asfalto; mensagens que só eles entendem. Mas um desenho misterioso leva o grupo de crianças até um corpo desmembrado e espalhado em um bosque. Depois disso, nada mais é como antes. Em 2016, Eddie se esforça para superar o passado, até que um dia ele e os amigos de infância recebem um mesmo aviso: o desenho de um homem de giz enforcado.

Life as a lady-in-waiting for Mary, Queen of Scots isn’t at all what Isabel Tait expected. But she must either tolerate the mindless partying and ceaseless backstabbing of Mary’s other ladies, or risk being sent home to a forced marriage. She’d almost rather return to her family - if not for a certain handsome gentleman who arouses a new desire in her, something she’s never before experienced. Of course, he’ll never notice her....

Madeleine Vernon’s dreams should be filled with elegant gowns and marriageable men. Instead, she dreams of avenging her brother’s death. But when she’s captured by the queen’s men, she’s forced to become a spy by her mysterious yet undeniably attractive captor.

Making use of neighborhood trees, cheerful robins, and bulb-hunting squirrels, as an urban dweller Ann Tudor - through her essays and poetry - works at staying in tune with what really counts: the sustaining beauty of the natural world.

I've buried the woman I once wanted to spend my life with. Lost the son that I should be teaching to play rugby now. To lose Luxury Whitson is a pain worse than death. As a duke and a billionaire, I've always gotten what I wanted. She was always meant to be mine. Mine to own. Now, all I own are my bloody tears, and I’m not ready to let those fall yet.

Our first encounter, I bloody saved the beauty, or so I thought. That cheeky Luxury Whitson said she needed no savior. And while my greatest trait is taking lives, she brought out a side of me I never knew. I decline my next mark—who I soon learned is her father. I revive her. She hates me. I concede to a new challenge: keep both Whitsons safe and tame Luxury.

Gänsehaut pur - der neue Thriller von C.J. Tudor. "Eines Nachts verschwand Annie. Aus ihrem eigenen Bett. Das ganze Dorf hat sie gesucht, überall. Alle haben das Schlimmste befürchtet. Und dann, wie durch ein Wunder, kam sie vierundzwanzig Stunden später zurück. Aber sie konnte - oder wollte - nicht sagen, was ihr zugestoßen war. Es war ihr aber etwas zugestoßen. Ich kann mir nicht erklären, was es war. Ich weiß nur, dass sie, als sie wieder auftauchte, nicht mehr dieselbe war. Sie war nicht mehr meine Annie.

His wife disagrees.
