From the international number one bestselling thriller writer, David Baldacci, comes a gripping mystery about a college football player's investigation into the unsolved disappearance of a fellow player who seemingly vanished into thin air. Previously published as The Mighty Johns, The Final Play is an ebook novella from bestselling author David Baldacci. Forty years ago, Herschel Ruggles, a legend on the Mighty Johns football team at Draven University, disappeared after scoring a record-breaking touchdown in front of 25,000 spectators. Ruggles, instead of celebrating, continued running, ball in hand, into a passageway that led under the field. He was never seen again. His disappearance had mystified the community for decades until another player, brilliant physics major, Merlin North, turns detective and becomes fixated on discovering what happened to Herschel Ruggles. As North's investigation deepens, he uncovers evidence which suggests that dark forces played a hand in Ruggles' fate, revealing a truth even more extraordinary than he could ever have anticipated.
Inhalt:It’s never too late to fall in love in this enchanting new story, a novella in the Westcott series from New York Times bestselling author Mary Balogh. Matilda Westcott has spent her life tending to the needs of her mother, the Dowager Countess of Riverdale, never questioning the web of solitude she has spun herself. To Matilda, who considers herself an aging spinster daughter, marriage is laughable—love is a game for the young, after all. But her quiet, ordered life unravels when a dashing gentleman from her past reappears, threatening to charm his way into her heart yet again. Charles Sawyer, Viscount Dirkson, does not expect to face Matilda Westcott thirty-six years after their failed romance. Moreover, he does not expect decades-old feelings to emerge at the very sight of her. When encountering Matilda at a dinner hosted by the Earl of Riverdale, he finds himself as fascinated by her as he was the first day they met, and wonders whether, after all these years, they have a chance at happiness together. Charles is determined to crack the hard exterior Matilda has built up for more than three decades, or he will risk losing her once again.... *Includes bonus excerpts from the Westcott novels* Standort: Overdrive Onleihbibliothek ISBN: 978-0-593-09903-2
Inhalt: A radio DJ is tormented by a twisted killer, who has a gruesome request.
I was nineteen when I discovered my boyfriend's father was a serial killer. I stumbled upon his latest victim tied up in the basement of the house he was renovating, and it was my evidence that helped convict him to a life in prison. My boyfriend never forgave me for turning against his dad and a couple of years later took his own life.
That was fifteen years ago. I am now a local evening radio presenter, but it seems I can't escape my past. Late one night, when I'm alone, the phone rings. The caller wants me to solve a riddle, and tells me a life depends on it. 'Only you can save her' 'If she dies it's your fault'
And so, the deadly game begins. Someone wants revenge.
The perfect read for fans of authors like Clare Mackintosh, Cara Hunter, and Paula Hawkins.

I didn't think I'd live another day. It's been almost ten years since I escaped to a life I could never imagine. And to a man I can only dream about. Evan Roark has been my beacon, he's been the man who's shown me that men who are strong can also be safe. After almost a decade, I'm finally ready to take back my life and remember the woman inside me, the woman who wants, who needs, who loves, who feels, who craves ... only he's made it clear I can't crave him. But I haven't made it this far to make a new life only to fail now. I want him to be the one to help me erase my past. And if he wants to be all up in my space being bossy and over protective, and looking so hot, then I can't help it if I'll try anything possible to get him to touch me.
Evan
Nine years ago I asked my best friend, Xavier, for a favor, a way to keep Andrea safe. While I run security for him and guard his family against all threats, I can also keep her close. I keep her close, but never touch. But when she paints a target on her back by filing for divorce, I'm forced to make a choice, and it's her I have to protect. And now she's calling my bluff, letting me know she's ready to finally trust another man to hold her, to touch her, to love her... It's killing me. I want it to be me, but I can't be both her lover and her protector. If I give in, then I won't see the threat coming. I know what happens when I get distracted. People get hurt.
But she's making it so ... damn... difficult. ***
What will it take to have them both give in to what has been there for longer than either of them knew?
Set against the back drop of Southern France in and around a tiny story book village reminiscent of Belle's village in Beauty and The Beast, comes a story of a woman who's life was stolen by an abusive husband, and the man who'll help her remember the woman she is inside.

After her last remaining family member dies, Sara Jenkins goes home to The Hideaway, her grandmother Mags's ramshackle BundB in Sweet Bay.

But all she could see was regret. 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.
