- Rebel : a legend novel / by Lu, Marie,1984-;
- Eden Wing is a brilliant student. He's about to graduate a year early from Ross University of the Sciences, with honors, and already has an internship lined up back in the Republic. But most people don't introduce Eden this way. Instead, they say, 'This is Eden, Daniel Wing's younger brother.' Ten years ago, Eden's brother Daniel was known as Day, the boy from the streets who led a revolution that saved the Republic of America. He went from being a hunted criminal to a national hero in less than a year. Day has spent the past decade piecing together his memory of his time in the Republic, pretending to enjoy life in Antarctica's capital, Ross City, and quietly hiding out from the world, even if it's meant giving up June, the great love of his life. As long as he can keep his little brother safe, that's all that matters. But Eden isn't safe. As the two brothers struggle to accept who they've each become, they grow more distant from one another than they've ever been. LSC

- House of correction : a novel / by French, Nicci,author.;
- In this heart-pounding standalone thriller from bestselling author Nicci French, a woman accused of murder attempts to solve her own case from the confines of prison--but as she unravels the truth, everything is called into question, including her own certainty that she is innocent. When a body is discovered in Okeham, England, Tabitha is shocked to find herself being placed in handcuffs. It must be a mistake. She'd only recently moved back to her childhood hometown, not even getting a chance to reacquaint herself with the neighbors. How could she possibly be a murder suspect? As Tabitha is shepherded through the system, her entire life is picked apart and scrutinized -her history of depression and medications, her decision to move back to a town she supposedly hated ... and of course, her past relationship with the victim, her former teacher. But most unsettling, Tabitha's own memories of that day are a complete blur. From the isolation of the correctional facility, Tabitha dissects every piece of evidence, every testimony she can get her hands on, matching them against her own recollections. But as dark, long-buried memories from her childhood come to light, Tabatha begins to question if she knows what kind of person she is after all. The world is convinced she's a killer. Tabatha needs to prove them all wrong.

- The ghosts that haunt me : memories of a homicide detective / by Ryan, Steve(Homicide detective),author.;
- "After years working in homicide, retired Toronto detective Steve Ryan reflects on six cases he will never forget. Retired detective Steve Ryan worked in Toronto's homicide squad for over a decade. For him, the stories of Toronto's most infamous crimes were more than just a headline read over morning coffee--they were his everyday life. After investigating over one hundred homicides, the tragedies Steve saw will never leave him and he'll never forget the victims whose deaths he investigated. Some things were so terrible they were impossible to forget, even after his retirement from the police force. In The Ghosts That Haunt Me, Steve reflects on just a few of the many cases that have greatly impacted him. In these pages, he remembers six cases, eight people whose lives were senselessly taken, that he still thinks about nearly every day. While hard to tell, these stories were harder to live through. But somewhere in between the crime and the heartache, there is a glimmer of hope that good eventually does prevail and that healing can come after grief."--

- The McCartney legacy. by Kozinn, Allan,author.; Sinclair, Adrian,author.;
