« Tout le monde ici a tué quelqu’un. » « Il n’y a aucun moyen de quitter cette île. » « Vous allez tous tuer ou être tués ici. » L’une de ces affirmations est un mensonge. Mais laquelle ? Amira n’a aucune envie de participer à l’anniversaire de son mari et de ses amis sur une île écossaise coupée du monde. Et malgré un jacuzzi chauffé au bois, le séjour s’annonce glacial. Pour détendre l’atmosphère, les convives décident de jouer à « deux vérités et un mensonge » en déposant anonymement trois déclarations sur eux-mêmes dans une boîte. C’est alors qu’un bout de papier supplémentaire apparaît, griffonné de trois menaces terrifiantes. Sans réseau et sans moyen de quitter l’île, le groupe est pris au piège jusqu’à la fin du week-end. Il n’y a que deux explications possibles : ou bien ils ne sont pas seuls, ou bien l’un d’entre eux veut leur mort à tous. Un jeu qui pourrait vous coûter la vie… Par l’autrice best-seller de Personne ne doit savoir, Prix des Lectrices 2023.

Deux vérités, un mensonge

Hidden Grove, un domaine privé de la banlieue londonienne. L’immense grille noire s’ouvre sur cinq manoirs, des voitures de luxe et un parc savamment entretenu. Emmylou, une lycéenne d’origine modeste qui a fui sa Bretagne natale pour être fille au pair, a l’impression d’arriver au paradis. Mais son quotidien se met rapidement à vaciller : le linge sale qui ne cesse de s’accumuler, des pleurs nocturnes à travers les cloisons, des prières murmurées, des rêves effroyables et cette maladie qui touche l’aîné des enfants et dont personne ne parle… Coupée du monde, Emmylou est entrée dans un piège monstrueux. Pourquoi elle ? Comment s’échapper ? S’inspirant de sa propre histoire, Sidonie Bonnec développe dans ce premier roman un suspense psychologique oppressant, où derrière les faux-semblants d’une famille idéale se cache la folie la plus noire.

La Fille au pair

Vingt ans de vie commune. Vingt ans de mensonges. Helen et George avaient imaginé une nouvelle vie, loin de leurs problèmes, dans ce cottage à retaper au fin fond des Cornouailles. Mais à peine sont-ils arrivés qu’ils comprennent que quelque chose cloche avec cet endroit. Helen ne se départit pas de l’angoissante sensation d’avoir déjà vu cette maison. Et les poupées trouvées dans les murs ou les étranges bocaux enterrés dans le jardin ne font rien pour atténuer sa terreur. Quand elle découvre que cette maison a appartenu, trente ans plus tôt, à une femme soupçonnée de sorcellerie coupable d’un triple meurtre, le passé revient brutalement frapper à leur porte. Helen et George réalisent alors qu’ils courent un terrible danger et qu’ils ne peuvent se fier à personne – ni même l’un à l’autre. Après le succès de Personne ne doit savoir, Claire McGowan revient avec un thriller psychologique terrifiant, aux enjeux sociaux très actuels.

Un thriller psychologique où la folie règne en maître. Le projet expérimental consistant à exiler certains détenus dangereux sur une île sans loi ni surveillance est toujours en place. En contrepartie de cette fausse liberté, l'identité des criminels qui ont accepté cette relégation est définitivement supprimée. Ils n'ont plus d'existence, plus de passé. Rayés de la mémoire collective sans retour en arrière possible.

Alors quand quatre des pires criminels de ce cercle de l'enfer parviennent à s'échapper et regagnent le continent pour se venger, Joy et Chloé n'ont d'autre choix que de se replonger dans l'horreur.

From master storyteller Stephen King comes an extraordinary new novel with intertwining storylines—one about a killer on a diabolical revenge mission, and another about a vigilante targeting a feminist celebrity speaker—featuring the beloved Holly Gibney and a dynamic new cast of characters. When the Buckeye City Police Department receives a disturbing letter from a person threatening to “kill thirteen innocents and one guilty” in “an act of atonement for the needless death of an innocent man,” Detective Izzy Jaynes has no idea what to think. Are fourteen citizens about to be slaughtered in an unhinged act of retribution? As the investigation unfolds, Izzy realizes that the letter writer is deadly serious, and she turns to her friend Holly Gibney for help.

In BEFORE HE SEES (A Mackenzie White Mystery—Book 2), FBI agent-in-training Mackenzie White struggles to make her mark in the FBI Academy in Quantico, trying to prove herself as a woman and as a transplant from Nebraska. Hoping she has what it takes to become an FBI agent and leave her life in the Midwest behind for good, Mackenzie just wants to keep a low profile and impress her superiors. But all that changes when the body of a woman is found in a garbage dump. The murder bears shocking similarities to the Scarecrow Killer—the case that made Mackenzie famous in Nebraska—and in the frantic race against time to stop a new serial killer, the FBI decides to break protocol and give Mackenzie a chance on the case. It is Mackenzie’s big break, her chance to impress the FBI—but the stakes have never been higher. Not everyone wants her on the case, and everything she touches seems to go wrong. As the pressure mounts and the killer strikes again, Mackenzie finds herself as a lone voice in a sea of experienced agents, and she soon realizes she is in way over heard.

Before He Sees (A Mackenzie White Mystery—Book 2)

Considered one of Poe’s most famous and best constructed terror short stories, "The Fall of the House of Usher" is most likely to grab the reader in its clutches and never let them go. Running along the "dull, dark, and soundless" corridors of Usher’s mansion or conversing with the terror-stricken and husky voice of its master, Poe’s story reeks of morbidity and schizophrenia. Though relying on already established characters and themes from his previous tales, Poe describes the workings of the psyche, the realm of dreams, and even the lands of madness in great detail, securing the story its rightful place and acclaim. Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was an American poet, author, and literary critic. Most famous for his poetry, short stories, and tales of the supernatural, mysterious, and macabre, he is also regarded as the inventor of the detective genre and a contributor to the emergence of science fiction, dark romanticism, and weird fiction. His most famous works include "The Raven" (1945), "The Black Cat" (1943), and "The Gold-Bug" (1843).

It doesn’t take long for the police to realize a serial killer is on the loose—and that his spree has just begun. Detective Mackenzie White, young, tough, smarter than the aging, chauvinistic men on her local force, finds herself called in grudgingly to help solve it.

Yet even for Mackenzie this new case proves an impossible riddle, something the likes of which she—and the local force—have ever seen. With the FBI called in, together, an intense manhunt ensues. Mackenzie, reeling from her own dark past, her failed relationships, and her undeniable attraction to the new FBI agent, finds herself battling her own demons as her hunt for the killer takes her to the darkest places of her mind. As she delves into the killer’s mind, obsessing over his twisted psychology, she finds that evil truly does exist.

Before He Takes (A Mackenzie White Mystery—Book 4)

First published in 1846, Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novella "The Double" is a classic doppelgänger and the second major work published by the author. It is the story of Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin, a government clerk who believes that a fellow clerk has taken over his identity and is determined to bring about his ruin. Considered the most Gogolesque of Dostoyevsky's works, the novella brilliantly depicts Golyadkin's descent into madness in a way that is hauntingly poetic. "The Double" illustrates Dostoyevsky's uncanny ability at capturing the complexity of human emotion especially the darker side of the human psyche.

An Emily Just Psychological Thriller: A fascinating psychological thriller with a surprise twist you’ll never guess

A Trusted Stranger (An Emily Just Psychological Thriller—Book Two) A compelling psychological thriller with an astounding twist

A young governess. A remote house. Two silent children. When less than benevolent ghosts are added into this already precarious mixture - chaos ensues. A gothic novella that explores fear, innocence, and vulnerability, ‘The Turn of the Screw’ is a masterful tragedy bound to entice all fans of the supernatural. Considered Henry James’ paranormal legacy, it was made into the classic chiller "The Innocents" (1961), and the modern adaptation "The Others" (2001) starring Nicole Kidman. Regarded as one of the greatest novelists in the English language, Henry James (1843-1916) was thrice nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature. He was born in the United States, but lived and worked in Europe. Mainly occupied with portraying the cultural clash between the Old World and the New World, he explored these themes in his most notable novels, ‘The Portrait of a Lady’ and ‘The Wings of the Dove’. His gripping explorations are unmissable for fans of Edith Wharton, George Eliot, and Joseph Conrad.
