Jonathan Kellerman - Guilt
The #1 New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Kellerman’s “psychology skills and dark imagination are a potent literary mix” (Los Angeles Times), and this intensely thrilling blend has never been so powerful as in the acclaimed author’s new novel of murder and madness among the beautiful dreamers, seductive predators, and doomed innocents adrift in the glare of Southern California’s eternal sunshine.
A series of horrifying events occur in quick succession in the same upscale L.A. neighborhood. A backyard renovation unearths an infant’s body, buried sixty years ago. And soon thereafter in a nearby park, another disturbingly bizarre discovery is made not far from the body of a young woman shot in the head. Helping LAPD homicide detective Milo Sturgis to link these eerie incidents is brilliant psychologist Alex Delaware. But even the good doctor’s vast experience with matters both clinical and criminal might not be enough to cut down to the bone of this chilling case—and draw out the disturbing truth.
Backtracking six decades into the past stirs up tales of a beautiful nurse with a mystery lover, a handsome, wealthy doctor who seems too good to be true, and a hospital with a notorious reputation—all of them long gone, along with any records of a newborn, and destined for anonymity. But the specter of fame rears its head when the case unexpectedly twists in the direction of the highest echelons of celebrity privilege. Entering this sheltered world, Alex little imagines the macabre layer just below the surface—a decadent quagmire of unholy rituals and grisly sacrifice.
Before their work is done, Alex and Milo, “the most original whodunit duo since Watson and Holmes” (Forbes), must confront a fanatically deranged mind of such monstrous cunning that even the most depraved madman would shudder.
Faye Kellerman - Hangman
"Hangman" by Faye Kellerman (William Morrow) is the latest crime novel starring Los Angeles Police Lt. Peter Decker and his wife, Rina Lazarus.
Decker agrees to do a favor for an old friend, but the situation becomes complicated when she disappears, leaving behind Gabe, her 14-year-old son.
Her husband becomes a prime suspect, because of his violent nature, recent actions and past prowess as a professional hitman. Meanwhile, Decker and his team get involved in the murder investigation of Adrianna Blanc, a local neonatal nurse whose body is discovered hanging at a construction site.
Adrianna's lifestyle offers many clues; her boyfriend is missing and the body count slowly rises.
Kellerman's book is ideal for fans of her long-running series, further exploring the strained relationship of Decker and Lazarus.

Anchien Troskie as Elbie Lotter
- Dis ek Anna
Sy het haarself Stom Anna genoem. Omdat sy aan niemand kon vertel van dit wat tussen haar en haar stiefpa plaasgevind het nie. Nie aan haar ma nie, nie aan haar beste vriendin nie, en selfs nie aan haar eie pa nie. Dit is ’n verhaal wat sy nou eers, jare later, kan uitskryf. Nou eers kan sy die swye verbreek oor hoe haar stiefpa haar diepste menswees aangetas het. En hoe sy uiteindelik ánderkant uitgekom het. Dis ek, Anna is gebaseer op ’n ware verhaal. Elbie Lötter is ’n skuilnaam.

- Raaiselkind
In ’n doodgewone, plattelandse gesin word ’n kind gebore. ’n Kind wat sy rug styf trek en aanmekaar skreeu. Wat later snags nie slaap nie en in die huis rondhardloop en die ligte aan- en afsit. ’n Kind wat bedags en snags met ’n beiteltjie die pleisterwerk van die mure afslaan wanneer hy nie onder die tafel of in die besemkas sit nie. ’n Kind wat slaan en skop en sy hande flap as jy hom ’n drukkie wil gee. ’n Raaiselkind. ’n Outistiese kind.
- Thula-Thula
Die boek gaan oor ‘n gesin waar dinge drasties en tragies skeefgeloop het. ‘n Pa en ‘n ma wat wandel met God en ingehaak is by Satan. En ‘n gemeenskap wat kyk en nie sien nie, want die waarheid is te ongeloofwaardig.
Gertruida is 26 jaar oud, maar steeds vasgevang in die bang lyfie van ‘n vier-en-‘n-halfjarige dogtertjie. ‘n Dogtertjie wie se boetie op sy 10de verjaarsdag verongeluk het en toe alles in haar lewe op sy kop laat draai het. ‘n Dogtertjie wat bo-gemiddeld intelligent is, maar al hoe stiller en stiller raak, omdat sy bang is vir die naglikkewaan, bang vir die gevoelens wat haar pa uit haar kindlyfie uittoor. Stiller raak, omdat haar pa haar tot stilte sweer en haar ma oor haar boetie treur en nie omgee wat snags in Gertruida se kamer gebeur nie....
