- Blood like ours / by Neville, Stuart,1972-author.;
- "In this chilling follow-up to Blood Like Mine, one mother faces the ultimate supernatural horror: the monster she must become to protect her child. El Paso, Texas: There have been strange sightings in the foothills of the Franklin Mountains. Hunters and hikers alike have reported seeing a young girl wandering the scrub, accompanied by a pack of coyotes and stray dogs. Rabbits and mule deer have been found mutilated, drained of blood, their throats ripped open. Meanwhile, Rebecca Carter has been alive for ten days. She awoke on a steel table in a tiled morgue with only two desires: the first, to find her daughter, Moonflower; the second, to sate her gnawing hunger. So far, she has only accomplished the second. Twice. The first time on the outskirts of El Paso, a drunk man who chased her into an alley. The second time, a man who offered her food in return for a service she didn't want to provide. In his cheap motel room, she sees a news report about a young girl roaming the mountain scrub with a pack of dogs. She takes the dead man's car and heads for the mountains. In Washington, DC, Special Agent Sarah McGrath hears a news report about the sightings of a feral girl, and the disappearance of Rebecca Carter's body. The same Rebecca Carter who was shot dead by McGrath's partner, Marc Donner, moments before he was gunned down by El Paso cops. She thought he'd gone crazy, but now she's not so sure. Even though she knows it's a mistake, she flies from DC to El Paso, looking for answers."--

In that case, it might be time for some sweet revenge, doggy style. When Reggie, a nav̐e, relentlessly optimistic Border Terrier, is abandoned on the mean city streets by his lowlife owner, Doug, Reggie is certain that his beloved owner would never leave him on purpose. But once Reggie falls in with a fast-talking, foul-mouthed Boston Terrier named Bug, a stray who loves his freedom and believes that owners are for suckers, Reggie finally realizes he was in a toxic relationship and begins to see Doug for the heartless sleazeball that he is. Determined to seek revenge, Reggie, Bug, and Bug's pals Maggie, a smart Australian Shepherd who has been sidelined by her owner's new puppy, and Hunter, an anxious Great Dane who's stressed out by his work as an emotional support animal together hatch a plan and embark on an epic adventure to help Reggie find his way home ... and make Doug pay by biting off the appendage he loves the most.

- A plus one for murder / by Bradford, Laura.;
- Emma Westlake has always wanted to be in business for herself. As a kid, she had her own successful lemonade stand and dog-walking business. And when she entered adulthood, Emma sunk all her cash into her dream job of travel planning. But as her customers became more and more internet savvy, the need for her services declined. At a loss for what to do next, she turns to an elderly friend who suggests she try to get paid for doing something she's really good at--being a paid companion. Emma thinks it's a crazy idea until requests start pouring in. Big Max from down the block wants her to act as his wingman at the local senior center's upcoming dance, nurse practitioner Stephanie needs a workout partner, and writer Brian Hill asks Emma to be his cheering section at an open mic night. Brian will be reading from his latest work and wants to know someone will clap for him when he's done. When Emma balks at the notion that people wouldn't, he tells her the room will be filled with people he's invited--most of whom will likely want him dead by the time he's done reading. Assuming he's joking, she laughs. But when Brian steps up to the mic and clears his throat to speak, he promptly drops dead. Emma is one of the last people to see him alive, and so she becomes an immediate suspect. Now she'll have to cozy up to a killer to save her skin and her new business.

- Nick Flynn is back in action, and he has a new employer--a shadowy intelligence outfit whose roots go back to the very beginning of the Cold War. But his first mission for them almost becomes his last. While meeting with a high-ranking Iranian dissident in the Austrian Alps, Flynn is ambushed and nearly killed ... just after learning that Iran and Russia are working together on a mysterious project--one they have codenamed MIDNIGHT. Flynn is determined to uncover MIDNIGHT's lethal secrets. Why are Moscow and Tehran covertly retrofitting a massive oil tanker in an Iranian port? What purpose lies behind their closely guarded effort, the brainchild of Pavel Voronin--a ruthless billionaire allied with Russia's autocratic president? Flynn and his new team plan to put an end to the nefarious project, but they're dogged at every step by Voronin's hired Raven Syndicate killers--elite veterans of Russia's special forces and intelligence services. As they track the enemy from the streets of Vienna to deep inside hostile Iran, Flynn and his crew must repeatedly risk their lives to pierce the layers of deception around this shadow war. It's a race against time to stop Voronin from launching his terrifying new weapon against the United States--potentially killing hundreds of millions and overturning the world's balance of power forever. The odds are stacked high against Flynn and his team ... but that's never stopped Nick before.
