      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?

      Lucy Huttonová a Joshua Templeman sa navzájom nenávidia. Nedá sa povedať, že sa iba nemajú radi. Ani že sa neochotne tolerujú. Nie, oni sa fakt neznášajú. Obaja pracujú ako asistenti riaditeľov vydavateľstva, dennodenne sedia oproti sebe v kancelárii a svoju nenávisť si ventilujú prostredníctvom rituálnych pasívno-agresívnych hier. Lucy nechápe Joshuov odmeraný, upätý a úzkostlivý prístup k práci. Joshua zasa krúti hlavou nad Lucinými farebnými vintage šatami, svojráznym vystupovaním a prehnaným optimizmom. Vo firme sa črtá možnosť povýšenia a neutíchajúci boj dvoch najvážnejších uchádzačov o miesto prevádzkového riaditeľa vrcholí. No hoci sa napätie povážlivo stupňuje, Lucy zisťuje, že možno to, čo cíti k Joshuovi, nie je nenávisť. A možno uňho je to takisto. A možno iba rozohrali ďalšiu, oveľa nebezpečnejšiu hru!

      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.

      She won’t rest until she’s sent every walking corpse back to its grave. Forever.Had anyone told Alice Bell that her entire life would change course between one heartbeat and the next, she would have laughed. From blissful to tragic, innocent to ruined? Please. But that’s all it took. One heartbeat. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything she knew and loved was gone.Her father was right. The monsters are real….To avenge her family, Ali must learn to fight the undead. To survive, she must learn to trust the baddest of the bad boys, Cole Holland. But Cole has secrets of his own, and if Ali isn’t careful, those secrets might just prove to be more dangerous than the zombies….I wish I could go back and do a thousand things differently.I'd tell my sister no.I'd never beg my mother to talk to my dad.I'd zip my lips and swallow those hateful words.Or, barring all of that, I'd hug my sister, my mom and my dad one last time.I'd tell them I love them.I wish... Yeah, I wish.
