A sinister revenge / by Raybourn, Deanna,author.;
"Veronica must find and stop a devious killer when a group of old friends is targeted for death in this new adventure from the New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-nominated author Deanna Raybourn. Veronica's natural-historian beau, Stoker, has been away in Bavaria for months and their relationship is at an impasse. But when Veronica shows up before him with his brother, Tiberius, Lord Templeton-Vane, he is lured back home by an intriguing job offer: preparing an iguanodon for a very special dinner party. Tiberius has received a cryptic message--along with the obituaries of two recently deceased members of his old group of friends, the Seven Sinners--that he too should get his affairs in order. Realizing he is in grave danger but not knowing why, he plans a reunion party for the remaining Sinners at his family estate to lure the killer out while Veronica and Stoker investigate. As the guests arrive and settle in, the evening's events turn deadly. More clues come to light, leading Veronica, Stoker, and Tiberius to uncover a shared past among the Sinners that has led to the fatal present. But the truth might be far more sinister than what they were prepared for"--

The revenge list / by McKinnon, Hannah Mary,author.;
"The people in Frankie Morgan's life say she's angry. Emotionally stunted. Combative. But really, who can blame her? It's hard being nice when your clients are insufferable, your next-door neighbor is a miserable woman and the cowardly driver who killed your mother is still out living it up somewhere. Somehow, though, she finds herself at her very first anger-management group session--drinking terrible coffee and learning all about how "forgiveness is a process." One that starts with a list. Frankie is skeptical. A list of everyone who's wronged her in some way over the years? More paper, please. Still, she makes the pointless list--with her own name in a prominent spot--and promptly forgets about it ... until it goes missing. And one by one, the people she's named start getting hurt in freak accidents, each deadlier than the last. Could it be coincidence giving her the revenge she never dared to seek ... or something more sinister? If Frankie doesn't find out who's behind it all, she might be next."--Back cover.

And now he has given Imogen an ultimatum: get out of the family home in two weeks or I'll take our son away from you. In a moment of madness, Imogen does something unthinkable. Something that puts her in control, for the first time in years. She's desperate to protect her son and claim authority over her own life. But Imogen wasn't expecting Phillip's first wife and his new girlfriend to get tangled up in her plans. These three very different women, and very unlikely allies, reluctantly team up to take revenge on a man who has wronged them all. The Exes' Revenge is a deliciously satisfying psychological thriller from an exciting new voice."--
