It's been a good summer for forensics expert Dr David Hunter. His relationship is going well and he's in demand again as a police consultant. Life is good. Then a call comes from an old associate: a body has been found, and she'd like Hunter to take a look. The empty shell of St Jude's Hospital now stands awaiting demolition, its only visitors society's outcasts, addicts and dealers. A partially mummified corpse has been discovered in the hospital's cavernous loft, but not even Hunter can say how long it's been there. All he knows for sure is that it's the body of a young woman. And that she was pregnant. But the collapse of the loft floor reveals another of the hospital's secrets. A sealed-off chamber, still with beds inside. Some of them occupied... For Hunter, what began as a straightforward case is about to become a twisted nightmare that threatens everyone around him. And as the investigation springs more surprises, one thing is certain. St Jude's hasn't claimed its last victim . . . With its viscerally authentic forensics, menacing atmosphere and nerve-shredding tension, Simon Beckett's new crime thriller will leave you gasping.

Childhood sweethearts William and Mary have been married for sixty years. William is a celebrated surgeon, Mary a devoted wife. Both have a strong sense of right and wrong. This is what their son, Joe O'Loughlin, has always believed. But when Joe is summoned to the hospital with news that his father has been brutally attacked, his world is turned upside down. Who is the strange woman crying at William's bedside, covered in his blood - a friend, a mistress, a fantasist or a killer? Against the advice of the police, Joe launches his own investigation. As he learns more, he discovers sides to his father he never knew - and is forcibly reminded that the truth comes at a price. A mesmerising psychological thriller from one of the greatest crime writers of today, Michael Robotham, the internationally bestselling author of THE SECRETS SHE KEEPS. Praise for Michael Robotham's writing: 'Will have you turning the pages compulsively' The Times 'Robotham doesn't just make me scared for his characters, he makes my heart ache for them' Linwood Barclay 'Superbly exciting ... a terrific read' Guardian 'A nerve-shredding thriller with the heart and soul so often missing from lesser crime and suspense novels. I couldn't stop reading, yet I didn't want Audie's story to end. Robotham is an absolute master' Stephen King on Life or Death

<strong>Ein verunglückter Drogendeal, ein toter Freund, der Donnerstagsmordclub is back and better than ever!</strong> Das hätten sie sich ja denken können, die Hobbyermittler des Donnerstagsmordclubs. Ein Jahr ohne Mordfall haben sie sich zu Weihnachten gewünscht, doch nur wenig später – dahin der fromme Wunsch. Der Tote: Kuldesh Shamar, ein Antiquitätenhändler, der am Morgen nach den Festtagen unglücklicherweise in ein Drogengeschäft verwickelt wird, was er am Abend mit seinem Leben bezahlt. Von dem wertvollen Paket, das er aufbewahren sollte, fehlt jedoch jede Spur. Nicht unbedingt zur Freude der Beteiligten. Mittendrin in dieser Löwengrube aus Dealern, Fälschern und Betrügern, die dem Paket hinterherjagen, die vier Senioren aus Coopers Chase. Und sie sind wütend, denn der Tote war nicht irgendwer, sondern ein alter Freund von Elizabeths Ehemann Stephen. Zieht euch warm an, möchte man den Ganoven da zurufen - aber nicht, weil gerade Winter ist. Johannes Steck und Beate Himmelstoß verstricken ihr Publikum zum vierten Mal in eine unnachahmlich charmante Mordermittlung.
