Already addicted to the pharmaceutical drug that keeps her body from decomposing, Bryn has to stop a secretive group of rich and powerful investors from eliminating the existing Returné addicts altogether. To ensure their plan to launch a new, military-grade strain of nanotech, the investors' undead assassin — who just happens to be the ex-wife of Bryn's lover Patrick — is on the hunt for anyone that stands in their way.

And while Bryn's allies aren't about to go down without a fight, the secret she's been keeping threatens to put those closest to her in even more danger. Poised to become a monster that her own side — and her own lover — will have to trap and kill, Bryn needs to find the cure to have any hope of preserving the lives of her friends, and her own dwindling humanity...

James-Fenimore Cooper

James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851) war ein amerikanischer Schriftsteller der Romantik. Cooper ist in vielerlei Hinsicht eine Schlüsselfigur der amerikanischen Literatur. Neben Washington Irving war er der erste amerikanische Schriftsteller, der von seinen Büchern leben konnte. Sein umfangreiches Werk umfasst zahlreiche historiografische Werke, Essays und Satiren über Amerika und Europa. Er blieb bis weit in das 20. Jahrhundert hinein auch in Europa der wohl meistgelesene Autor.

Geoff Cooper

Shades

From Geoff Cooper and Brian Keene comes a dark coming-of-age tale. When 11-year-old Danny skips school to go hunting for crabs near the Haverstraw Marina, he finds a dead body instead-and stumbles across one of the darkest and deadliest secrets in Brackard’s Point. A secret that threatens the lives of Danny, his friends, and the mysterious old Russian known as Gustav…

“…and Land rose from the waters, and Lo! there was Life. He looked down upon His creation and said, ‘Well fuck me running. I really screwed up here, didn’t I?’ This blight upon the Land became known as Geoff Cooper.”

“…and on the eighth day, He created Brian Keene, and then decided that was a mistake, so He fucked off to the other end of the universe and left Keene in charge.”

James Hadley Chase

Eve

The two strands running through Clive Thurston's life are utterly incompatible. On the one hand is Carol, a rare bird in Hollywood, an actress with integrity and intelligence, and his own undistinguished literary output, a combination to bring him love, happiness and obscurity; on the other his fame, wealth and reputation-bringing play Rain Check, a one-off performance that cannot be repeated, and only Thurston knows why - and Eve.

Even Carol does not know of the torments Thurston suffers on account of Eve. The dreadful counterpoint approaches its climatic cadence, driving him to the brink of despair, as he faces professional ruin, degradation and death, until at last, modulating the Eve-theme, he seeks to lead the melody back to Carol.

Only James Hadley Chase could handle such a subject with such edge-of-chair assurance.

John-Dickson Carr

Tod im Hexenwinkel

John Dickson Carr (1906-1977) wurde als Sohn schottischer Eltern in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, geboren. In seinen über 90 Romanen nimmt Carr die Tradition seiner Vorbilder Arthur Conan Doyle und G. K. Chesterton anspielungsreich auf. Der beleibte und biertrinkende Privatgelehrte Dr. Gideon Fell muß einen Vergleich mit den großen Detektiven dieser Autoren nicht scheuen. Von John Dickson Carr sind in der DuMont's Kriminal-Bibliothek bereits erschienen: »Der Tote im Tower« (Band 1014), »Die schottische Selbstmord-Serie« (Band 1018), »Die Schädelburg« (Band 1027), »Fünf tödliche Schachteln« (Band 1034) und »Der verschlossene Raum« (Band 1042).

Die Originalausgabe erschien unter dem Titel »Hag's Nook«
