Book Description
An impossible killer stalks the Bayou... NYPD detective John Decker thinks his family's dark past is behind him when he's offered the job as town sheriff in his sleepy southern hometown. Happy for a change in scenery, and a quieter way of life, he accepts the position. But when a pair of mutilated bodies are found in the woods just days before a massive storm is due to make landfall, the similarities dredge up the horrific memories of his mother's unsolved murder almost thirty years ago. A murder that drove his father to madness and an early grave, and John to abandon his high school sweetheart and escape to New York. The Medical Examiner insists that the killer cannot be human...but that's ridiculous. There are no large predators in the area. The men were clearly targeted by someone...or something. As the skies darken and the weather worsens, more bodies pile up. But what is the connection? He must find out who-or what-is behind these attacks. Because if he doesn't, the next victim might, once again, be someone he loves... Part mystery, part supernatural thriller, you won't want to stop reading until the very end. If you are a fan of James Rollins, Douglas Preston, or Lincoln Child, you will love the John Decker series.

An Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller A GOOD MORNING AMERICA Book Club Pick "Adeyemi has sparked magic once again." —The New York Times After battling the impossible, Zélie and Amari have finally succeeded in bringing magic back to the land of Orïsha.

But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath. With civil war looming on the horizon, Zélie finds herself at a breaking point: she must discover a way to bring the kingdom together or watch as Orïsha tears itself apart.

In the darkness they wait, patient, hungry... They are found huddled together in a frontier mineshaft. Three mummified corpses sitting near a vein of gold so rich it would have made them wealthy. Yet they never tried to leave. Instead, they sat down and starved to death rather than walk out. When Robyn Miller inherits her father's share of an old ghost town in Nevada that has been in the family for generations, she decides to pack up and make a new life by creating a one-of-a-kind wedding venue and tourist attraction. Eager to put her plans into action, she hires a trio of geologists to survey the crumbling gold mine so that she can start offering tours. But only one of them makes it out alive, and he brings with him a tale of mummified corpses and seams of gold. He also tells of a creature deep in the tunnels. A beast with glowing red eyes that attacked them, killing his companions and almost murdering him. The local police, unable to find answers, call in the FBI, who in turn ask CUSP for help. When John Decker arrives in the remote mining town he finds a terrifying adversary that dates all the way back to the Gold Rush, and an ancient legend come to life.

Book Description
A secret mission. A horror beyond imagination. In the last months of World War Two, the German Navy premiered a new and terrifying weapon. A submarine of incredible range that could strike anywhere, anytime. And it did, prowling the shipping lanes night and day, and striking fear into the Allies. It was just what Hitler needed to turn the tide of war. Until it disappeared without a trace. Now, more than seven decades later, the wreck of a previously unknown U-Boat has been found off the South American coast. A submarine so well preserved that it shouldn't exist. Eager to learn its secrets, a team of marine archaeologists arrive at a unique seafloor habitat to study the wreck up close. But something has survived on the empty sub. A dark and terrifying presence. Answering the panicked researcher's distress call, CUSP sends John Decker to assess the situation. What he finds on the cold and lonely ocean floor is unlike anything he has seen before. A horror from the blackest days of the war. And it doesn't want them to leave. At least, not alive. This is book six in the John Decker series, but it can be read as a standalone novel.
