Lucas Smothers, nineteen and from the wrong end of town, has been arrested for the rape and murder of a local girl. His lawyer, former Texas Ranger Billy Bob Holland, is convinced of Lucas's innocence — but proving it means unearthing the truth from the seething mass of deceit and corruption that spreads like wildfire in a gossipy small town where everybody knows everybody else's business.

Billy Bob's relationship with Lucas's family is not an easy one. Years back he was a close friend of Mrs. Smothers — too close, according to her husband. But when Lucas overhears gruesome tales of serial murder from a neighboring cell in the local lock-up, he himself looks like a candidate for an untimely death, and Billy Bob incurs enemies far more dangerous than any he faced as a Ranger.

Life's a bitch, then you die … if you're lucky

James Stark, a.k.a. Sandman Slim, crawled out of Hell, took bloody revenge for his girlfriend's murder, and saved the world along the way. After that, what do you do for an encore?

You take a lousy job tracking down monsters for money. It's a depressing gig, but it pays for your beer and cigarettes. In L.A., though, things can always get worse.

Like when Lucifer comes to town to supervise his movie biography and drafts Stark as his bodyguard. Sandman Slim has to swim with the human and inhuman sharks of L.A.'s underground power elite. That's before the murders start. And before he runs into the Czech porn star who isn't quite what she seems. Even before all those murdered people start coming back from the dead and join a zombie army that will change our world and Stark's forever.

Death bites. Life is worse. All things considered, Hell's not looking so bad.

Then the nightmares start: a blood-soaked victim and a killer's arm slicing through the air, again and again.

Abby wonders if she's having the nervous breakdown the tabloids claim she already had, especially when sexy, skeptical police chief Josh Kincaid questions her story. When menacing hate mail arrives, Josh's professional concern for Abby soon evolves into an intense attraction, and the feeling is mutual. But as Abby's visions grow more graphic and gripping, so does her fear.

Somewhere in the shadows of Abby's memory lies the key to a very present danger. But she'll have to stay alive long enough to find it …

As white-hot flames sear the dark night, a killer waits in the trees, watching the mill burn, listening for the screams — the only proof that justice has finally begun for the sins of long-ago.

For journalist Cassidy Buchanan, this inferno is a living nightmare: a reminder of the horrible, mysterious fire that destroyed her wealthy family seventeen years ago — and of Brig McKenzie, the handsome hellraiser accused of setting the blaze. That tragic crime has never been solved, and already the whispers have begun in Prosperity, Oregon: Another fire, more deaths, and one common denominator — Cassidy herself.

Cassidy came home to Prosperity to put the past behind her, but it seems the past isn't finished with Cassidy. Someone doesn't want her to uncover the chilling truth … someone who has killed before and will kill again … a cold-blooded psychopath who is only waiting to hear her …

Chronically underemployed Japanese-American sleuth Rei Shimura has taken a freelance gig with a Washington, D.C., alphabet agency that just might have ties to the CIA. Her mission, should she choose to accept it, is to go undercover as a clerk in a big Tokyo department store. It's a risky assignment, but it also gives Rei a store discount that allows her to freely indulge her shopaholic tendencies.

Meanwhile, she's listening in on private conversations, crashing a conference, and fending off the unwanted advances of a couple of the store's executives who seem fascinated by her navel ring. When her cover is blown, Rei is in big trouble. Suddenly she's neck-deep in something very nasty, and it will take all her resourcefulness and unorthodox methods to survive a determined killer.

The onset of summer brings steamy weather to East Tennessee and the Body Farm, Dr. Bill Brockton's human-decomposition research facility at the University of Tennessee. But even Brockton is about to get more heat than he's bargained for when a former student asks him to help prove that her sister's death was not suicide, but murder.

Brockton's quick consulting trip takes a long, harrowing detour to the Florida panhandle and the ruins of the North Florida Boys' Reformatory, a notorious juvenile detention facility that met a fiery end more than forty years ago. Guided by the discovery of a diary kept by one of the school's young "students," he finds a cluster of shallow graves, all of them containing the bones of boys who met violent deaths. As Brockton and his team close in on the truth, they find skeletons in some surprisingly prominent closets … and they learn that the ghosts of the past pose perilous consequences in the present.

Publisher synopsis: A beautiful student is missing. Did she leave on impulse, or was it something more sinister? When the young woman's grandfather pleads for help, journalism dean Meredith "Red" Solaris agrees to help search for the student, but doesn't know she may have to risk everything to find her.

Worse yet, without solid evidence, Red and Detective Joe Morgan have little basis for investigation. Murky university politics — and Red's own struggle to keep her job — thwart efforts to find a girl held captive by a man willing to steal what he cannot win.

Cielo Mar is a quaint little town tucked into the coastline of Central California. It is known for its moderate climate, its majestic beauty, and its friendly people. But recently, Cielo Mar has been sullied by the appearance of some very unsavory characters.

Detective Luke Gehrig gets suspicious when he meets a lovely lady at the flea market on the bluff. She requests his assistance in unraveling a mystery that was mentioned in her recently-deceased grandfather's journal. Her grandfather happens to be a well-known judge in the area; Judge Mooney.

Luke enlists the help of his friend McG and together they follow leads that take them into the dark world of crime. Bodies begin floating into the Cielo Mar harbor with similar injuries and the M. E. is having difficulty determining the cause of death.

In the end, Luke finds a connection between a photograph, a yacht moored in the harbor, and the involvement of four other judges who disagree with the outcome of some very specific, very sordid trials, and vow to take matters into their own hands. It seems that they found a way to change the verdict.

Most of all, someone out there is dead set on making sure that Faith doesn't reach the altar.

A fender bender with an Indian Muslim on a New York City Highway launches Pete Fanning, an overworked NYPD narcotics detective, to investigate a terrorist plot that threatens horrendous consequences: the bombing of Belmont Park Racetrack at the running of the Belmont stakes in two weeks. Pete teams up with two FBI agents to unravel the mystery of the terrorists unlikely collaboration — a band of dissident IRA soldiers with a cell of the Al-Qaeda embedded in a Queens, New York mosque.

Pete is certain if he uncovers the logic to this improbable terrorist marriage, it will reveal their intended target. Then he has to stop them before they kill thousands of racing fans attending the big race. In doing so, he soon finds himself in their sights. The investigation becomes not only one of survival, but tests his loyalty to his family, his friends, his country, and ultimately goes to the core of why he became a cop.
