WANTED: ROOMMATE. Must be tidy, polite, and absolutely not my brother’s hot as sin best friend.
I have no idea why I said yes.
Maybe I’d had one too many wines. Maybe I’d done it accidentally. Maybe I’d been sleep-texting.
One thing I know for sure is this: I absolutely do not want Ethan Hawkins in my apartment, up in my business, taking over my space.
Yet he’s here. Moving his stuff into my spare bedroom. Sending a wave of panty-melting, musky man-scent my way every time he walks past me.
Here’s the thing.
We don’t get along–at all. We never have, and I don’t think we’re going to start now that we’re under one roof.
There’s also that little issue where I’m kinda, sorta, totally in love with him…
Uh-oh.
Hexes and Hemlines (A Witchcraft Mystery, 3)- Julier Blackwell
With her vintage clothing store taking off, Lily Ivory is finding that life in San Francisco suits her just fine. But her ability to sense vibrations from the past, so useful in locating secondhand gems, has landed her in the middle of a new mystery…
Lily gets called away from Aunt Cora’s Closet when the police need a witch’s take on a strange case. Malachi Zazi was stabbed to death in his apartment, under a ladder, surrounded by the number thirteen, a broken mirror, and a black cat—superstitions that the victim, as head of a rationalist society, was devoted to discrediting.
When the police identify a suspect from the Serpentarian Society, Lily is shocked to learn it’s someone she knows. But with bad luck plaguing all its members, she begins to wonder if there’s more at work than mere coincidence. And while there aren’t many clues from the crime scene, Lily finds evidence of dark witchcraft and a hex on her friend’s doorstep. With her friend’s safety at stake, Lily is determined to use magic to find the murderer before everyone’s luck runs out…
Sleight of Fantasy (Sasha Urban, 4) – Dima Zales
My deal with Nero and my growing powers are supposed to keep me and my loved ones safe—yet the unthinkable happens.
When lines are crossed and blood is spilled, nothing will ever be the same again.
Régression – Fabrice Papillon
Ils sont prêts.
Ils reviennent d’un lointain passé, d’une époque glorieuse.
Ils forment ce que Socrate et Homère nommaient déjà la race d’or.
Ils viennent sauver la terre, et les hommes qui peuvent encore l’être.
Pour les autres, ils n’auront aucune pitié.
L’heure du Grand Retour a sonné… et, pour le commandant Marc Brunier, celle de son ultime enquête. Une chasse à l’homme exceptionnelle à travers le monde et les âges.
36 000 ans avant Jésus-Christ. Une famille résiste au froid au fond d’une grotte de la péninsule Ibérique quand des hommes font irruption et massacrent les parents. Fascinés par la peau claire et les yeux bleutés du fils, les assaillants l’épargnent et l’enlèvent.
14 février 2020, Corse. Vannina Aquaviva, capitaine de gendarmerie à la section de recherche d’Ajaccio, découvre un charnier dans une grotte de Bonifacio. De son côté, la police retrouve un cœur en décomposition au pied d’un olivier millénaire du site préhistorique de Filitosa. Des scènes de crime similaires apparaissent sur d’autres sites de la préhistoire en Espagne puis en Angleterre.
Les premières analyses de la police scientifique sont stupéfiantes. Quelle est cette créature meurtrière dotée de capacités sidérantes ? Aux confins de l’Europe et jusqu’à la Russie des goulags et de Tchernobyl, une chasse à l’homme exceptionnelle commence à travers le monde et les âges, où l’on croise Homère, Socrate et son disciple Platon, Jésus et l’apôtre Jean, mais aussi Rabelais, Nietzsche ou encore le terrifiant Heinrich Himmler. Quel secret remontant à nos origines partagent tous ces hommes ? Après des millénaires de silence, une révélation est en passe de bouleverser l’équilibre même de l’espèce humaine…
