by Liz NugentA June 2018 Indie Next Pick “An extraordinary novel. Lying in Wait crackles and snaps like a bonfire on a winter’s night; you shudder even as you draw closer to it. Spellbinding.” —A.J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window From the international bestselling author of Unraveling Oliver, an “unputdownable psychological thriller with an ending that lingers long after turning the final page” (The Irish Times) about a Dublin family whose dark secrets and twisted relationships are suddenly revealed.My husband did not mean to kill Annie Doyle, but the lying tramp deserved it. On the surface, Lydia Fitzsimons has the perfect life—wife of a respected, successful judge, mother to a beloved son, mistress of a beautiful house in Dublin.

Brilliantly macabre” (Sunday Mirror).

Lírio De Tigre De Bangkok Em Londres: A Tigresa Acorda Novamente! (Lírio De Tigre De Bangkok #2)
by Owen JonesLÍRIO DE TIGRE DE BANGKOK EM LONDRES por Owen Jones A Tigresa acorda novamente enquanto estudava em um hospital infantil em Londres. Lírio de Tigre de Bangkok em Londres Depois do efeito devastador que sua violência causou em sua própria vida e dos cidadãos de Bangkok em seus primeiros dias como estudante de medicina, a vida de Lily se acalmou e ela se estabeleceu em seus estudos. Depois de dois anos, ela ganhou uma bolsa de estudos para trabalhar no Hospital Infantil Great Ormond Street, em Londres, e se mudou para lá sem Ron, que continuou seus estudos em Bangkok. ‘Lírio de Tigre de Bangkok em Londres’ retoma sua história no segundo ano de dois anos como estudante de medicina no hospital. Ela ama seu trabalho lá e se dá bem com a equipe e com os pacientes infantis, mas ela não tem amigos fora do trabalho. Em um de seus dias de folga, ela lê um artigo no Sunday Times sobre rede organizada de pedofilia em Londres envolvendo o próprio establishment do país e isso a deixa furiosa. Ela pode ignorar isto ou se envolver. Sua primeira reação é evitar o despertar do Demônio que a possuiu em Bangkok apenas dois anos antes, mas quando ela encontra outras vítimas de abuso infantil, parece que o dado foi lançado. Esta história não é para quem tem estômago fraco, mas não descreve atos de abuso infantil. No entanto, faz referências frequentes a cenas notórias de abuso infantil, especialmente o infame "Abatedouro de Carnes" em Piccadilly Circus, no centro de Londres. Que vergonha para os nossos chamados líderes, que preferem proteger os abusadores poderosos do que os impotentes abusados! Muitas das questões levantadas ainda estão sob investigação policial no momento em que escrevo, embora poucas pessoas esperem que algo venha delas.
