Kidnapped. Nearly murdered — twice. Marian Moyer has spent the last few months avoiding any and all drama. Save for that time she decided whether she'd turn up the heat with smoldering James Holden or heart-stopping Mika Andrushkiv.

Unfortunately, Marian's drama-free days are over with the arrival of Hollywood starlet Carmen Suarez. Brought in to model for Food Porn, Carmen's face on the magazine cover will host benefits that, until now, Marian has only dreamt about. If she can just survive Carmen's attitude, that is.

But when Carmen turns up dead and all fingers point to Marian's BFF and business partner, Addison Dawes, Marian is forced to uncover the real truth behind Carmen's death. Of course, what she finds brings several long-buried secrets to the surface — secrets that might have been better left unknown.

Review: Hell Fire by Karin Fossum

A Mysterious Review of Hell Fire by Karin Fossum. An Inspector Konrad Sejer Mystery.

Review summary: There isn't much of a mystery in the latest entry of this series and calling it such seems to be a considerable stretch. The crime is essentially solved by the second chapter, so one might reasonably ask, what was the point of the rest of the book. (Click here for text of full review.)

Our rating:

Hell Fire
Karin Fossum
An Inspector Konrad Sejer Mystery
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (August 2016)

Publisher synopsis: A gruesome tableau awaits Inspector Konrad Sejer in the oppressive summer heat: a woman and a young boy lay dead in a pool of blood near a dank camper. The details of the deaths of Bonnie Hayden and her five-year-old son Simon are mysterious. There is no sign of robbery or assault. Who would brutally stab a defenseless woman and her child?

Sejer and his fellow investigator Jakob Skarre begin a hunt for the killer that will eventually lead them to a heartbreaking conclusion.

As Rick starts to pull apart the old house, he makes an electrifying discovery — millions of dollars hidden in the walls. It's enough money to completely transform Rick's life — and everything he thought he knew about his father. Yet the more of his father's hidden past that Rick brings to light, the more dangerous his present becomes. Soon, he finds himself on the run from deadly enemies desperate to keep the past buried, and only solving the mystery of his father — a man who has been unable to communicate, comprehend, or care for himself for almost 20 years — will save Rick … if he can survive long enough to do it.

Since returning from assignment in America, Alicia Friend has been grounded at a desk, her new boss at the elite Serious Crime Agency unwilling to risk her in the field. But when her former partner, newly-promoted Detective Chief Inspector Murphy requests her input, the SCA cannot refuse.

It only involves interviewing a young terror suspect, after all. What can go wrong?

But Alicia backs Murphy's suspicion and links the crime to a seemingly unconnected incident. Then a third attack occurs, and there is no denying it: someone is coordinating these vicious incidents, and the endgame is building.

Back in full flow, the sometimes-annoyingly-perky detective summons all her brain power to push the investigation toward a seemingly benign cult of rehabilitated violent offenders, hindered at every turn by the group's lawyer, by the detective seeking to replace her, and by a hierarchy as interested in politics as they are in catching the killer.

Police detective John Davey once had everything — until bribery charges destroyed his career, his marriage, and his life.

Now he's been given a second chance. Davey is pressured into joining an investigation into the baffling murder of a wealthy Chicago couple savagely murdered before their North Shore mansion was set ablaze. To the city, it's a scandal. To Davey, it's overkill.

In the charred ruins, Davey finds clues to something more sinister than deadly premediated arson: a criminal maze threading back through history, and a connection to billions of dollars in artwork that disappeared during the Holocaust. As more victims emerge, Davey begins to suspect the motives of those he is forced to trust, with betrayal layered on betrayal, until he has no one left to believe in but himself.

All the Little Liars by Charlaine Harris, an Aurora Teagarden Mystery (9th in series)

Publisher: Minotaur Books

 

Aurora Teagarden is basking in the news of her pregnancy when disaster strikes her small Georgia town: four kids vanish from the school soccer field in an afternoon. Aurora's 15-year-old brother Phillip is one of them. Also gone are two of his friends, and an 11-year-old girl who was just hoping to get a ride home from soccer practice. And then there's an even worse discovery — at the kids' last known destination, a dead body.

While the local police and sheriff's department comb the county for the missing kids and interview everyone even remotely involved, Aurora and her new husband, true crime writer Robin Crusoe, begin their own investigation. Could the death and kidnappings have anything to do with a group of bullies at the middle school? Is Phillip's disappearance related to Aurora's father's gambling debts? Or is Phillip himself, new to town and an unknown quantity, responsible for taking the other children? But regardless of the reason, as the days go by, the most important questions remain. Are the kids still alive? Who could be concealing them? Where could they be?

With Christmas approaching, Aurora is determined to find her brother … if he's still alive.
