Big sky / by Atkinson, Kate,author.;
Jackson Brodie has relocated to a quiet seaside village in North Yorkshire, in the occasional company of his recalcitrant teenage son and an aging Labrador, both at the discretion of his ex-partner Julia. It's picturesque, but there's something darker lurking behind the scenes. Jackson's current job, gathering proof of an unfaithful husband for his suspicious wife, is fairly standard-issue, but a chance encounter with a desperate man on a crumbling cliff leads him into a sinister network - and back across the path of his old friend Reggie.

Clive Cussler The sea wolves / by Du Brul, Jack B.,author.; Cussler, Clive,creator.;
As New England swelters in the summer of 1914, Detective Isaac Bell is asked to investigate a cache of missing rifles-only to discover something much more sinister. Whoever broke into this Winchester Factory wasn't looking to take weapons, they wanted to leave something in the shipping crates: a radio transmitter, set to summon a fleet of dreaded German U-boats. Someone is trying to keep American supplies from reaching British shores, and if Bell doesn't crack the conspiracy in time, the Atlantic Ocean will run red with blood. Bell must hunt down a new piece of technology that is allowing the Germans to rule the seas from New York to England. With the outcome of the war at stake and Franklin Roosevelt's orders on the line, Bell will risk everything to stop the U-Boats before they strike again.
