Rogue The Vault Book 2

There was no going back; there was no choice, anymore. I'd chosen out and this was it: hot-cold, dry-wet, bright-dark and lonely. Hayley has gone rogue. She's left everything she's ever known - her friends, her bees, her whole world - all because her curiosity was too big to fit within the walls of the underwater home she was forced to flee. But what is this new world she's come to? Has Hayley finally found somewhere she can belong? Or will she have to keep running? 'A striking dystopian world: Hive carves out a niche through intriguing and original world-building [with] enough imaginative vitamin to tease readers into anticipating the second and final volume in the series.' Sydney Morning Herald

The Omega Group has one purpose: to protect mankind from preternatural and supernatural threats. After all, it takes one to know one, right? Being sent home to investigate a rash of unusual events at the Grand Canyon is a mission Carter Mockta would really like to avoid. He’s worked long and hard to forget his past and the reasons why he first joined the Omega Group. Unfortunately, missing people, tourists losing time, and unexplained auras are problems that can’t be ignored. Thrust into the middle of a tribal war that began over a thousand years ago when a God granted a single wish, Carter and his team must put an end to the vicious feud and scramble to survive as the ancient past, troubled present, and not-so-distant future collide. The Grand Canyon holds many secrets, but one of them is far more sinister than anyone knows.

In a city on the brink of collapse, my gift could be their salvation... or my downfall. I survived genetic experiments and a brutal war that left my DNA irreversibly altered. In the neon metropolis of Spark City, I want to blend into the crowd and live a normal life. But my secret is uncovered when a wolf-human hybrid makes me his protector. His otherworldly appearance both repels and attracts me. As if that wasn't enough, a troubled teenager latches onto me, further complicating my already precarious situation. The city's cyborg mayor, desperate for survival, seeks to exploit my unique abilities. He believes I may be his last hope, but as his relentless android enforcers hunt me through the gritty streets, I realize escape is my only option. Freedom comes at a price. To break free from the clutches of those who would use me, I must save the one person capable of destroying the entire city. In a world teetering on the edge, my choices could be the difference between salvation and annihilation. BRINK is the second installment in the Rogue Spark series, a dystopian science fiction saga. Read the story of Ida Sarek, a healer and a magnet for trouble, as she navigates a treacherous world where her gift is both her greatest asset and her deepest curse.

A sign from the gods... or the work of a deadly enemy? The Horus Killings is the second in the stirring and enthralling series set in Paul Doherty's Ancient Egypt, featuring Judge Amerotke. Perfect for fans of Lauren Haney and Wilbur Smith. 'The period detail is fascinating, but not tediously overdone. Doherty catches atmosphere as well... And Judge Amerotke is an engaging, distinctive sleuth' - Glasgow Herald At the divine temple of Horus, a crowd gathers to celebrate the triumphant return of Hatusu, the widow of Pharaoh Tuthmosis II, after her successful battle against the Mitanni. Hatusu's achievements confound her opponents who refuse to believe that a woman is capable of ruling Egypt, but she cannot silence the court gossips who whisper that Hatusu's stepson is the true heir to the throne. Hatusu is determined that Egypt will accept her as the first Pharaoh-Queen, but she needs to win the favour of the gods. When a spate of savage killings takes place in the Temple of Horus, the priests interpret this as a sign of celestial disapproval of Hatusu. Only one man, Amerotke, a respected judge, can be trusted to find the truth among the intrigue surrounding the deaths. What readers are saying about The Horus Killings: 'The plot is engrossing, and the murderer, unlike many murder mysteries, is not obvious, making their revelation at the end of the book a satisfying conclusion to a very entertaining story' 'This was a compelling book, and I found that I just couldn't put it down' 'Paul Doherty at his very best!'
