Book Description
Lena doesn't believe the stories whispered in her village-stories of blood-sucking immortals who feast on them as they sleep. There is no evil looming in the nearby castle and no malevolent creature about to steal her from her bed. Vampires, Lena knows, are nothing to fear. Until she accidentally wakes one. Desperate to keep her loved ones safe, Lena enters into a deal. As the village's healer, she must provide the vampire with blood, and he, in return, will not slaughter the villagers. Yet Ansel is not the soulless monster legend paints him to be, and he is just as capable of kindness as he is cruelty. What starts as feelings of resentment soon blossom into friendship, and friendship into something far more dangerous. But Lena cannot keep Ansel a secret forever. Vampires throughout the world felt his awakening, and one in particular is determined to carry out revenge a century in the making-not only upon Ansel but upon the one who woke him. Death of the Dawn is a young adult fantasy novel, perfect for fans of morally grey characters and enemies-to-lovers romance. It is book #1 in The Spires of Dawn series but can be read as a standalone.

Book Description
Maine game warden Mike Bowditch finds himself in a life-or-death chase in this next thriller in the bestselling series by Edgar Award nominee Paul Doiron, Dead by Dawn. Mike Bowditch is fighting for his life. After being ambushed on a dark winter road, Bowditch crashes his Jeep into a frozen river. Trapped beneath the ice in the middle of nowhere, having lost his gun and any way to signal for help, Mike fights his way to the surface. But surviving the crash is only the first challenge. Whoever set the trap that ran him off the road is still out there, and they’re coming for him. Hours earlier, Mike had been called to investigate the suspicious drowning of a wealthy professor. Despite the death being ruled an accident, the victim's elegant, eccentric daughter-in-law insists the man was murdered. She suspects his companion that day, a reclusive survivalist and conspiracy theorist who accompanied the professor on his fateful duck-hunting trip—but what exactly was the nature of their relationship? And was her own sharp-tongued daughter, who inherited the dead man’s fortune, as close to her grandfather as she claims? The accusations lead Mike to a sinister local family who claim to have information on the crime. But when his Jeep flies into the river and unknown armed assailants on snowmobiles chase him through the wilderness, the investigation turns into a fight for survival. As Mike faces a nightlong battle to stay alive, he must dissect the hours leading up to the ambush and solve two riddles: which one of these people desperately want him dead, and what has he done to incur their wrath?
