Bad actors / by Herron, Mick,author.;
"In London's MI5 headquarters a scandal is brewing that could disgrace the entire intelligence community. The Downing Street superforecaster-a specialist who advises the Prime Minister's office on how policy is likely to be received by the electorate-has disappeared without a trace. Claude Whelan, who was once head of MI5, has been tasked with tracking her down. But the trail leads him straight back to Regent's Park itself, with First Desk Diana Taverner as chief suspect. Has Taverner overplayed her hand at last? Meanwhile, her Russian counterpart, Moscow intelligence's First Desk, has cheekily showed up in London and shaken off his escort. Are the two unfortunate events connected? Over at Slough House, where Jackson Lamb presides over some of MI5's most embittered demoted agents, the slow horses are doing what they do best, and adding a little bit of chaos to an already unstable situation ... There are bad actors everywhere, and they usually get their comeuppance before the credits roll. But politics is a dirty business, and in a world where lying, cheating and backstabbing are the norm, sometimes the good guys can find themselves outgunned"--

I got a name : the murder of Krystal Senyk / by Robertson, Eliza,author.; Dolphin, Myles,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."A propulsive true-crime story that exposes the deep cracks in a system that repeatedly fails to protect women, while tracking the once-cold trail of a murderer still at large. Krystal Senyk was the kind of friend everybody wants: a reliable confidant, a handywoman of all trades, and an infectious creative with an adventurous spirit. Most importantly, she was tough as nails. So when her friend, Lynn, needed help escaping her abusive husband, Ronald Bax, Krystal leapt into action to protect her. But soon Krystal became the new outlet for Bax's rage. He terrorized and intimidated her for months on end, and finally issued a chilling warning: the hunt is on. Krystal was scared but she was smart: she reached out to the RCMP for a police escort home, in case the threat was real. To her shock, the officer brushed her off. Bax's threat had been all too real. He was waiting for Krystal when she walked through her front door that evening. At 29 years old, the woman who seemed invincible--who was a beloved sister, daughter, and friend--was shot and killed in the house she built herself in the Yukon. Ronald Bax disappeared without a trace. Nearly three decades later, Eliza Robertson has re-opened the case. In compelling, vibrant prose, Robertson works tirelessly to piece together Krystal's story, retracing the dire failings of Canadian law enforcement and Bax's last steps. She speaks to those closest to Krystal, and also those closest to her killer--determined to bring him, and the system that failed her, to justice. I Got a Name uses one woman's tragic story to boldly interrogate themes of violence against women and the pervasive issues that plague our society. In this riveting true-crime story about victimhood, power, and control, Robertson examines the broken system in place, and asks: if it isn't looking out for the vulnerable, the threatened, the hunted--who among us is it protecting?"--

Now or Never [electronic resource] : by Evanovich, Janet.aut; cloudLibrary;
The latest Stephanie Plum novel from #1 New York Times bestseller and “the most popular mystery writer alive” (The New York Times) Janet Evanovich. She said yes to Morelli. She said yes to Ranger. Now Stephanie Plum has two fiancés and no idea what to do about it. But the way things are going, she might not live long enough to marry anyone. While Stephanie stalls for time, she buries herself in her work as a bounty hunter, tracking down an unusually varied assortment of fugitives from justice. There’s Eugene Fleck, a seemingly sweet online influencer who might also be YouTube star Robin Hoodie, masked hero to the homeless, who hijacks delivery trucks and distributes their contents to the needy. She’s also on the trail of Bruno Jug, a wealthy and connected man in the wholesale produce business who is rumored to traffic young girls alongside lettuce and tomatoes. Most terrifying of all is Zoran—a laundromat manager by day and self-proclaimed vampire by night with a taste for the blood of pretty girls. When he shows up on Stephanie’s doorstep, it’s not for the meatloaf dinner. With timely assists from her stalwart supporters Lula, Connie, and Grandma Mazur, Stephanie uses every trick in the book to reel in these men. But only she can decide what to do about the two men she actually loves. She can’t hold Ranger and Morelli at bay for long, and she’s keeping a secret from them that is the biggest bombshell of all. Now or never, she’s got to make the decision of a lifetime.
