Book Description
Even monsters have horrors they whisper about in the dark of the night. They told him that the Lost were animals. Crazed and brutal, they said, a danger to themselves and others. Hero, they called him, for providing the mercy of a clean death. They lied. The Tiarna Beo is a land frozen in the still moment between acts of savage violence. Forty years after a genocidal Purging that drove an entire race either into the grave or north through the mountains, every man watches his words and his neighbour. Only a fool draws attention to himself, and only the suicidal travel to or from the North. Growing up fatherless in a cold and grieving home, Breag held tight to a clear vision for his future – a good woman, a family of his own and a quiet life. When his good woman betrays him, her confederates force him to travel to the Tiarna. He's charged with the mission to track down one of the Lost and bring it North. Its unwilling sacrifice will win him back his life. Mired in hopeless duty, spending his days and his years among people who would kill him if they knew what he was, Breag struggles to hold to the frayed edges of his humanity and his hope. But no good deed goes unpunished. When a man who would be his conscience pushes him to rescue a brutalised young woman, he finds out that she is the Lost he has spent eight years hunting for. His prize, e token that will give him back everything he ever wanted. All he has to do is bring her North. But the girl refuses to go quietly, and Breag is forced to choose between his future and hers. His choice will send out ripples that ignite the fumes of anger between Daoine and humans, and will ultimately burn the entire Tiarna down around him. Previously published under the name Tara Saunders.

Book Description
In Bad Wolf, Nele Neuhaus's second U.S. publication of her enormously popular series, tensions run high both inside and outside police headquarters, and a complex and unpredictable plot propels her characters forward at breakneck speed. On a hot June day, the body of a sixteen-year-old girl washes up on a riverbank outside of Frankfurt. She has been brutally murdered and shows signs of long-term abuse, but no one comes forward with any information as to her identity. Even weeks later, the local police have not been able to find out who she is. Then a new case comes in: A popular television host is attacked, raped, and locked in the trunk of her own car. She survives, barely, and is able to supply only vague hints to the police, having to do with her recent investigations into an organization whose members are from the highest echelons of society, and the potential uncovering of a shocking history they'd prefer to keep from the public eye. As the two cases collide, Inspectors Pia Kirchhoff and Oliver von Bodenstein dig deep into the past and underneath the veneer of bourgeois society to come up against a terrible secret that is about to impact their personal lives as well. It is almost too late for a person very close to Pia before she and Oliver finally track down the big bad wolf. . . .

When human remains are found in the stomach of a dead wolf, Hannah knows that this summer won’t be like any other. The remains are linked to a bloody drug deal across the border in Finland. But how did the victim end up in the woods outside of Haparanda? And where have the drugs and money gone? Hannah and her colleagues leave no stone unturned. But time is scarce and they aren’t the only ones looking. When the secretive and deadly Katja arrives, unexpected and brutal events start to pile up. In just a few days, life in Haparanda is turned upside down. Not least for Hannah, who is finally forced to confront her own past.
