West Heart Kill
It's the Fourth of July weekend at the prestigious West Heart country club. Gathered for cocktails on the first evening are just some of the guests: the club president, the treasurer, the snooping schoolboy, the bereaved father, the taciturn caretaker, the prospective member...
And there will also be a body.
And a private detective.
And a fiendish mystery to solve.
But everything else is all to play for.
And you are about to find out that you have a role to play in this mystery too...
The Edge
Retired from the Army's most prestigious special ops force, Travis Devine is now part of an elite undercover team in Homeland Security. But when he's brought in by DC Emerson Campbell to investigate the murder of a young woman, he quickly learns that this case is more personal than most.
Four days earlier Jennifer Silkwellwas found dead on the rocks of the Maine coastline. A high ranking analyst for the CIA, she had knowledge of national security secrets that would be valuable to a number of enemies. And her Senator father once saved DC Emerson Campbell's life.
Knowing how much is riding on the case, Devine packs his bags and heads for the small town of Potter in Maine. But small towns can harbourbig secrets, and not everyone wants to share them with outsiders.
Not when there's a killer on the loose . . .
The Prey
THE FIRST PHONE CALL SHOCKS A FAMILY
A box of photo albums is found in the attic of a house in Hofn, a small fishing village on the
south coast of Iceland. The new owners return it to the man who sold them the house, along with a muddied child's shoe with a name written on the sole: Salvor. The man is baffled; they never knew anyone called that. Shortly after the phone rings - it's the nursing home where his mother, an Alzheimer's patient, lives. She's suffered a heart attack and the doctors don't expect her to live much longer. The nurse asks him to let his sister, Salvor, know as well. Their mother has been asking for her.
THE SECOND TRACKS TWO MISSING COUPLES
Johanna is a member of a search and rescue team in Hofn and she's searching for two couples from Reykjavik. Their phones' last location has been pinpointed as the road leading up into the highlands. It's far from clear why these people would have made such a risky trip in the middle of the harsh winter, and they soon find the first dead body. More troubling, Johanna senses her team is being tracked out in the snow.
A THIRD FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE?
Hjorvar works at the Stokksnes Radar Station in the highlands. He is alone when the phone connected to the gate rings. It's the first time it's done so since he began working there five months ago. He picks up the phone but can hear only interference and what sounds like a child's voice asking for her mother.
How are these events connected? And what may be searching for its prey out on the ice?
The Wolf

In desperation, Munch drafts in a trainee from the Police Academy, Mia Kruger, a young woman with an uncanny ability to see beyond the facts. Little does he know that Mia is battling her own demons and will soon find that her life and that of the case are entwined in ways no one could have imagined....
