Flynn Martin is a TV reporter looking to redeem herself after her involvement in a botched hostage situation on live TV. While she waits for her network to put her on air again, she keeps her eyes and ears on the street, hoping she’ll find something that will save her career. When a young TV reporter Robbie McGrath is found dead in her apartment, all signs point to the notorious PDQ Killer. Only PDQ hasn’t claimed any victims in the past 15 years. And Flynn isn’t completely convinced that this is his work. Harry Kugel, an HR employee with the Colorado Department of Education, knows for a fact that it is not the work of PDQ. That’s because he was PDQ, and he’s since worked hard to reform his ways. But he can’t risk the damage to his legacy, or for the police to come searching for him again. So he reaches out to Flynn to nudge her in the right direction. But even he couldn’t have predicted the events that follow. No Lie Lasts Forever by Mark Stevens is a psychological thriller where two strangers enter a reluctant partnership with very different goals in mind.
Kati Dawes is on the run with her teenage daughter Zoe. They live in an isolated area in Hawaii, with new names and keeping a very low profile. If anyone were to learn their true identities, Kati’s life would once again hang in the balance – literally. For the past two years, this strategy has worked. Until Kati’s fiancé, attorney Eddie Akana, goes missing during a morning hike. Kati can’t afford to be a suspect. Because once officers start sniffing around, or if the media gets any photos of her, she knows it’s only a matter of time before her past catches up with her. To protect herself, she enlists the help of Eddie’s partner Noah Walker. And Noah needs to know the whole truth if Kati stands any chance of keeping her identity safe. But Noah has his own secrets too. And the more Kati digs around, the more she learns about her fiancé’s business dealings. And when Zoe goes missing, she will stop at nothing to get her back. Falls to Pieces by Douglas Corleone is a suspense novel with a race to see who’s secrets are revealed the fastest, all of which have dire consequences that no one is prepared for.
