In The Dark A pristine white beach near Sanibel Island, Florida, is an unlikely place for a murder, but that's where Will Novak finds himself, knee-deep in salt water trying to save a life. Maybe the frantic woman is the client he's supposed to meet. But there's no question she's got plenty of powerful enemies. And now they're after Novak too. In The Details When he meets her again, her story opens a world of nightmares: captured women, stolen children, and ?adoptions? forged in blood and death. The network that tore apart her family stretches across continents and corrupts the forces that should fight against it. And its leaders will do anything to silence her. In The Last Place You Look From the alligator-infested waters of the Everglades to the Central American jungle, the fight to stop a ruthless conspiracy?and to find one mother's child?will take Novak to the edge of hell itself... Praise For Linda Ladd's Claire Morgan Thrillers ?One of the most creepy, crawly, and compelling psychological thrillers ever.? ?Fresh Fiction ?Chilling, compelling suspense...be prepared to lose sleep!? ?Eileen Dryer ?Exciting, thrill-a-minute!? ?Midwest Book Review ?Plenty of suspense and surprises.? ?Publishers Weekly

NO FRIENDS Mardi Gras whips New Orleans' French Quarter into a whirlpool of excess, color, booze, noise, motion. So the woman in the sights of Will Novak's binoculars stands out. She's bruised, barefoot, wearing a man's raincoat. And she's looking right at him. NO FAITH In a moment she's fleeing into the crowd, but Novak knows she's not gone for good. When she comes back, it's with a gun to his head-and a story about crony politics, a crooked judge, a kidnapped whistleblower, and children in deadly danger. Novak can't let this one slide. NO FURY Through the grit of Houston's underbelly to the grime below Beverly Hills' glamor, a trickle of rot connects the powerful to the desperate and corrupts the men and women who are supposed to stand against it. Deceit is everywhere. If he's going to do right, Novak is going to have to do it alone . . .
