Book Description
Don't Come Out is the story of Brian and Bridget Sykes, a young Dublin couple, and their eight-year-old son Danny. One day, evil in the human form of Geoffrey Staines is waiting when Bridget and Danny return home from shopping. Bridget is attacked and injured, but worse, Danny is gone. Detective Michael McCann begins investigating what he realises early on will be a sinister case. Between himself and Brian, they realise, too late, who has taken Danny. Staines in captured and sent to trial for what is assumed will be an open-and-shut case, but twisted circumstances and an over-vigilant judge intervene to send the killer to prison for a much shorter time than Brian and Bridget, by now estranged, could ever have imagined. Brian makes a statement in court, at the end of which he turns to Staines and says simply "Don't come out." Seven years later, Staines is released. Brian is waiting. Detective McCann is drawn, albeit reluctantly, back into the case. What follows is a journey into the darkest side of the human spirit. Brian has become more deadly and dangerous than anyone could have imagined, and he embarks on an unbelievable trail of revenge, retribution, and as he sees it, justice. Eventually McCann enlists Bridget's help to try and save Brian from himself. To bring him back from the dark world that has become his preferred place of residence.

Book Description
From the brilliant mind of A Touch of Darkness's bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair comes a YA crossover in a darkly unique fantasy world. Anora Silby can see the dead and turn spirits into gold coins, two things she would prefer to keep secret as she tries to lead a normal life at her new school. After all, she didn't change her identity for nothing. Hiding her weirdness is just one of many challenges. By the end of her first day, she's claimed the soul of a dead girl on campus and lost the coin. Turns out, the coin gives others the ability to steal souls, and when a classmate ends up dead, there's no mistaking the murder weapon. Navigating the loss of her Poppa, the mistrust of her mother, the attention of gorgeous and enigmatic Shy, and Roundtable, an anonymous student gossip app threatening to expose her, are hard enough. Now she must find the person who stole her coin before more lives are lost, but that means making herself a target for the Order, an organization that governs the dead on Earth—and they want Anora and her powers for themselves.
