    BLACKDOWN (a thriller and murder mystery) - 310 pages
    ‘THE MOST SAVAGE OF BEASTS IS TO BE FOUND WITHIN THE HEART OF MAN.’

    It is 1817, Regency England. Thomas Blackdown, a thieftaker and ex-soldier, receives word that his brother and father are in deep trouble and need his help. But Blackdown is a man that harbours bitter memories; a man banished from his homeland because of a terrible accident, and so is reluctant to return to his ancestral home in Somerset.
    However, once there he discovers that his brother has been savagely murdered – torn to shreds, some say by a mythical creature the locals call the Blackdown Beast. Thomas Blackdown does not believe in any creature of fantasy, and is determined to bring to justice his brother’s murderer, encouraged by his brother’s fianc!, Julianne Tresham, and aided by the faithful servant Addison.
    But Blackdown is quickly drawn deep into a complicated web of deceit, power, greed and murder involving Lord Tresham – Julianne’s father – and the cold Sir Peter Lansdowne. What is the mysterious Lupercal Club? Why do ex-soldiers go missing from Commodore Pettigrew’s travelling theatre? What strange thing is happening in Devilbowl Wood where Blackdown’s brother was found mutilated? And does a savage, hellish creature really prowl the night?
    Soon, Blackdown must fight for his own life and face up to his demons both imaginary and real. He will need all his wits and skills to survive if he is ever to discover the shocking truth behind the evil that has penetrated as far as the government itself.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Detective-Shakespeare-Mysteries-Collection-Books-ebook/dp/B00DQDBSM2/
    A Detective Shakespeare Mysteries Collection (Books 1-3) - 844 pages
    Depraved Difference:
    A young woman is brutally murdered by two men on the subway, her cries for help falling on the deaf ears of onlookers too terrified to get involved, her misery ended with the crushing stomp of a steel-toed boot. A year later, these same bystanders begin to turn up dead, and Detective Hayden Eldridge is assigned the case, left to his own devices to solve a growing set of murders as his disgraced partner, Detective Justin Shakespeare, battles depression and health issues, providing little to no assistance.
    A girl disappears. She's no one special. A waitress, studying to be a nurse. But the investigation finds she does have something in common with a sickening number of missing women: blonde, young, with a penchant for a retro look. She's the latest victim of a serial killer operating so far under the radar, no one noticed until now.
    Two different crimes, two different investigations, are about to collide in an ending so shocking, you'll be left asking: What would I do?
    Tick Tock:
    Crime Scene tech Frank Brata digs deep and finds the courage to ask his colleague, Sarah, out for coffee after work. Their good time turns into a nightmare when Frank wakes up the next morning covered in blood, with no recollection of what happened, and Sarah's body floating in the tub. Determined not to go to prison for a crime he's horrified he may have committed, he scrubs the crime scene clean, and, tormented by text messages from the real killer, begins a race against the clock to solve the murder before his own co-workers, his own friends, solve it first, and find him guilty.
    Billionaire Richard Tate is the toast of the town, loved by everyone but his wife. His plans for a romantic weekend with his mistress ends in disaster, waking the next morning to find her murdered, floating in the tub. After fleeing in a panic, he returns to find the hotel room spotless, and no sign of the body. An envelope found at the scene contains not the expected blackmail note, but something far more sinister.
    Two murders, with the same MO, targeting both the average working man, and the richest of society, sets a rejuvenated Detective Shakespeare, and his new reluctant partner, Amber Trace, after a murderer whose motivations are a mystery, and who appears to be aided by the very people they would least expect--their own.
    Tick Tock, Book #2 in the internationally bestselling Detective Shakespeare Mysteries series, picks up right where Depraved Difference left off, and asks a simple question: What would you do? What would you do if you couldn't prove your innocence, but knew you weren't capable of murder? Would you hide the very evidence that might clear you, or would you turn yourself in and trust the system to work?
    The Redeemer:
    It was the case that destroyed Detective Justin Shakespeare's career, beginning a downward spiral of self-loathing and self-destruction lasting half a decade. And today things are only going to get worse. The Widow Rapist is free on a technicality, and it is up to Detective Shakespeare and his partner Amber Trace to find the evidence, five years cold, to put him back in prison before he strikes again.
    But Shakespeare and Trace aren't alone in their desire for justice. The Seven are the survivors, avowed to not let the memories of their loved ones be forgotten. And with the release of the Widow Rapist, they are determined to take justice into their own hands, restoring balance to a flawed system.
    At stake is a second chance, a chance at redemption, a chance to salvage a career destroyed, a reputation tarnished, and a life diminished.
    A chance brought to Detective Shakespeare whether he wants it or not. A chance brought to him by The Redeemer.

    The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Pushes Back from the Brink: A Woman's Nation Pushes Back from the Brink - 557 pages
    Fifty years after President Lyndon B. Johnson called for a War on Poverty and enlisted Sargent Shriver to oversee it, the most important social issue of our day is once again the dire economic straits of millions of Americans. 1 in 3 Americans today live in poverty or teeter on the brink. 70 million are women and the children who depend on them. The fragile economic status of millions of American women is the shameful secret of the modern era—yet these women are also our greatest hope for change, and our nation’s greatest undervalued asset.

    The Shriver Report: A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back from the Brink asks—and answers—big questions. Why are millions of women financially vulnerable when others have made such great progress? Why are millions of women struggling to make ends meet even though they are hard at work? What is it about our nation—government, business, family, and even women themselves—that drives women to the financial brink? And what is at stake?

    To answer these questions, we examined in detail three major cultural and ecoomic changes over the past 50 years:
    • Women work more outside the home, but still earn less than men.
    • Women lead more families on their own.
    • Women today need higher education to enter the middle class.
    To forge a path forward that recognizes this reality, The Shriver Report brought together a power packed roster of big thinkers and talented contributors, including Hillary Clinton, Anne-Marie Slaughter and Lebron James, and challenged them to collaborate with us to develop fresh thinking around practical solutions. This report’s unique combination of academic research, personal reflections, authentic photojournalism, groundbreaking poll results, front line workers, and box office celebrities, is all focused on a single issue of national importance: women and the economy. In The Shriver Report, Davos meets Main Street.

    Five Days to Catch a Monkey - 814 pages
    Steeped in over 2000 years of Chinese history, with the power to change lives, the fabled Golden Monkeys had survived the dynastic emperors of ancient China, only to be separated by the revolution of Mao and his Red Army.
    Now in the aftermath of the Iraq war, one of the pair, guarded by a Sentinel, is being hunted by the Chinese Triads eager to return it to The People’s Republic of China, in exchange for riches and favours.
    A million miles away from international politics and gangs, in a sleepy South Devon coastal town, two brothers, misfits in today’s society, and struggling to make ends meet, decide it’s time to enter the big league and steal the local zoo’s own Golden Monkey.
    Their inept and doomed caper brings them into contact with the Sentinel and the real Golden Monkey and throws them into a world of violence and danger beyond their wildest imaginings.
    With assassins and the police bearing down on the trio, it’s only a matter of time before the whole scene kicks off into a winner takes all finale where, the body count resembles the St Valentine’s Day massacre, and the police are left baffled. Will the Golden Monkey’s ever be re-united?

    Scars and Stars - 454 pages
    A boy of just six years old, Austin Roberts found himself perpetually in the way at the post-funeral gathering of his great uncle Jack. Frustrated and alone, he wandered out onto the front porch to find his great uncle Cat, Jack's brother, sitting alone, an old album on his lap. Oblivious to the world around them, the two begin an unlikely conversation and together embark on journey that stretches almost seven decades in length.
    Page by page, Cat imparts the story of the album to young Austin, using a series of seemingly mundane and unconnected objects to tell the story of the brothers Roberts from long ago. Beginning with their humble upbringing by a single mother on the river bottoms of rural Ohio to the day they left home to serve in the Korean, through their capture and escape from an unmarked prisoner of war camp and on through the lives they returned to, the album tells a story of bravery and brotherhood that knows no bounds.

    Shades of Death - 353 pages
    Seventeen years after her death, the skeletal remains of an eleven-year-old girl are discovered buried deep in the caves of Derbyshire's Peak District. Close to the body lies a crudely-carved clay model of a sinister jackal-headed creature. What is the connection?

    As DS Tom Ward takes charge of the police investigation, the secrets surrounding a group of now grown-up children and their sinister 'Egyptian game' are gradually revealed.
    Secrets which have lain buried for almost twenty years.
    Secrets which will now emerge with unexpected and devastating consequences.
    When the body of a seemingly innocent and beautiful young widow is discovered, it seems the killer is still at large.
    And the game is by no means over.
    Tom Ward slowly peels away layers of deception that span two decades - but finds himself dangerously mixed up in a deadly plot.

    Set in the rugged and forbidding landscape of the Peak District , ‘Shades of Death’ combines ritual murder, haunted underground caves and computer viruses to create a tense psychological thriller.

    Found this one a while for 85p and its still the same prce. Not massively long but pacey enough.

    Judgement Wolf

    Dr Jane West heads up a team of paranormal investigators as they work from their secret underground base in Newcastle upon Tyne. The team have been called in to investigate the simultaneous thefts of artefacts with mystical powers on both sides of the Atlantic. One of which may have led to the death of the President of the United States.

    Can Jane West and her team find the stolen artefacts before their mystical powers are used against them, or have the artefacts already falling into the hands of a potentially dangerous vampire? During the investigation will she uncover the truth about her assistant’s past and why, as an orphaned baby, he was given the surname Van Helsing?
