      Hora duchů je místem smrti. Vydá životy ztracených dívek dřív, než bude pozdě? Když se v divočině tasmánských hor během školního výletu ztratí skupina náctiletých děvčat, obyvatelé Limestone Creek okamžitě zpozorní. K takovému zmizení v této oblasti nedošlo poprvé a pověsti o Hladovci a Hoře duchů dodnes budí místní ze sna. Od začátku je však jasné, že v horách někdo hraje nečistou hru. Hlavním podezřelým se okamžitě stává místní drogový dealer — otec jedné z nezvěstných dívek. Detektiv Con Badenhorst ovšem ví, že v tomto městě, plném zkorumpovaných policistů, politických intrik a dávných tajemství, se nedá věřit nikomu. Zvlášť když je sestra jedné z pohřešovaných hvězdou internetu a zřejmě toho o zmizení ví víc, než prozrazuje. Je možné, že tahle partička dospívajících děvčat nebyla tak nevinná, jak by se mohlo zdát? Kdo za jejich zmizením opravdu stojí? A především — vrátí se dívky zpět živé?

      Debut author Sally Thorne bursts on the scene with a hilarious and sexy workplace comedy all about that thin, fine line between hate and love. Nemesis (n.) 1) An opponent or rival whom a person cannot best or overcome. 2) A person's undoing 3) Joshua Templeman Lucy Hutton has always been certain that the nice girl can get the corner office. She's charming and accommodating and prides herself on being loved by everyone at Bexley & Gamin. Everyone except for coldly efficient, impeccably attired, physically intimidating Joshua Templeman. And the feeling is mutual. Trapped in a shared office together 40 (ok, 50 or 60) hours a week, they've become entrenched in an addictive, ridiculous never-ending game of one-upmanship. There's the Staring Game. The Mirror Game. The HR Game. Lucy can't let Joshua beat her at anything—especially when a huge new promotion goes up for the taking. If Lucy wins this game, she'll be Joshua's boss. If she loses, she'll resign. So why is she suddenly having steamy dreams about Joshua and dressing for work like she's got a hot date? After a perfectly innocent elevator ride ends with an earth-shattering kiss, Lucy starts to wonder whether she's got Joshua Templeman all wrong. Maybe Lucy Hutton doesn't hate Joshua Templeman. And maybe he doesn't hate her either. Or maybe this is just another game.

      Allie will embrace her cold vampire side to hunt down and end Sarren, the psychopathic vampire who murdered Zeke. But the trail is bloody and long, and Sarren has left many surprises for Allie and her companions - her creator, Kanin, and her blood brother, Jackal. The trail is leading straight to the one place they must protect at any cost - the last vampire-free zone on Earth, Eden. And Sarren has one final, brutal shock in store for Allie. In a ruined world where no life is sacred and former allies can turn on you in one heartbeat, Allie will face her darkest days. And if she succeeds, triumph is short-lived in the face of surviving forever alone.
