Women are turning up dead on a lone stretch of highway in Delaware. Some go missing for an inexplicable length of time, while others are turning up dead, their bodies left out for display in bizarre and mysterious ways. When a pattern is discovered, it becomes clear to the FBI that a twisted serial killer is on the hunt—luring girls in devious schemes—and that he won’t stop killing, ever. The FBI, desperate to crack the case, urges Special Agent Riley Paige to take it on. But the brilliant Riley, still reeling from past cases, has finally found peace in her home life, and is determined to help her daughter April get back on her feet. Yet when the murders become too disturbing, too urgent—and when her former partner Bill implores her—Riley finally realizes she can’t say no. Riley’s hunt leads her deep into the unsettling world of hitchhikers, of drifters, of women that no one else cares for. When she discovers that several women are being kept alive and that there is still time to save them, she realizes she will stop at nothing, obsessing over the case and driving herself to the brink. Yet Riley realizes her own life is falling apart, and her own fragile psyche can barely handle the strain. In a frantic race against time, she will have to plunge deep into the killer’s mind to save these women—and to save herself—from collapse. A dark psychological thriller with heart-pounding suspense, ONCE LURED is book #4 in a riveting new series—with a beloved new character—that will leave you turning pages late into the night. Book #5 in the Riley Paige series is also available!

OP DE VLUCHT VOOR HOGERE KRACHTEN (een Avery Black-mysterie – Boek 2) gaat over een nieuwe seriemoordenaar die Boston stalkt: hij vermoordt zijn slachtoffers op bizarre manieren en daagt de politie uit met mysterieuze puzzels die verwijzen naar de sterren. Naarmate de inzet wordt opgevoerd en de druk toeneemt, moet de politie van Boston zijn meest briljante en meest controversi?le rechercheur inschakelen: Avery Black. Avery, die nog steeds in de greep is van haar vorige zaak, wordt geconfronteerd met een rivaliserend district en een briljante, sluwe moordenaar die haar altijd een stap voor is. Ze wordt gedwongen zijn duistere, verwrongen geest binnen te dringen terwijl hij aanwijzingen achterlaat voor zijn volgende moord en ze wordt gedwongen in haar eigen geest te kijken wat ze liever niet doet. Ze wordt genoodzaakt advies in te winnen bij Howard Randall, de verwrongen seriemoordenaar die ze jaren geleden achter de tralies zette, terwijl haar nieuwe, ontluikende leven met Rose en Ramirez uit elkaar valt. En net wanneer het niet erger kan worden, ontdekt ze iets anders: zijzelf kan het doelwit zijn. Een psychologisch kat-en-muisspel leidt Avery in een hectische race tegen de tijd door een reeks schokkende en onverwachte wendingen, met een climax die zelfs Avery zich niet kan voorstellen. OP DE VLUCHT VOOR HOGERE KRACHTEN is een duistere psychologische thriller met hartverscheurende spanning. Het is het tweede boek van een meeslepende nieuwe serie, met een geliefd nieuw personage waardoor je tot in de late uren pagina’s zal omslaan. Boek 3 in de Avery Black-serie is binnenkort verkrijgbaar. "Een meesterwerk op het gebied van thriller en mysterie. Pierce heeft fantastisch werk verricht door karakters te ontwikkelen met een psychologische kant, die zo goed zijn beschreven dat we in hun gedachten kunnen meevoelen, hun angsten kunnen volgen en juichen voor hun succes. De plot is erg intelligent en zal je gedurende het hele boek bezighouden. Dit boek zit boordevol wendingen en zal je wakker houden tot het einde van de laatste pagina." –Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (over Eens Weg)

Originally published in 1995 and now available as an ebook.This edition does not include illustrations.European Union is the grand political enigma of the late twentieth century. Its very essence resists definition, and why and how it works defy agreed explanation. For politicians, it is endlessly controversial, even occasionally fatal, but for businessmen and bankers it is a source of opportunity, and for students the gateway to broader horizons. From above, where Council ministers haggle, it seems to offer a welcome hybrid of all member-states’ systems; but from below, at best it represents the legal, political and economic context in which every player is bound to operate, while at worst it is perceived as a miasma or a haven for unproductive bureaucrats.But a clear view is nonetheless possible. In examining the informal machinery of European power, Keith Middlemas opens up an unfamiliar and expansive alternative prospect, illuminating not what is 'said' to happen, but what actually does. In the gap between the official and the real, member-states, regions, companies, financial institutions all complete, seeking to create durable networks of influence to gain advantage in a never-ending game, a game fundamental to the EU’s nature. A complex web of rivalries is spun. Drawing on over four hundred interviews by a gifted team of European researchers with participants at all levels, Middlemas turns his unblinking eye on those who inhabit that web to disentangle its disputes, its rules, its flaws, its successes. He shows us a Europe spinning itself into existence, and a Union much different from that envisaged by its founders.
