Black Orchid: A Thriller

by Vaughn C. Hardacker

When an actress turns up in the morgue, an ex-cop and a private investigator hunt a vicious killer across Los Angeles in “this hard-hitting crime novel” (Publishers Weekly). Two months after leaving the comforts of her New Hampshire family estate, aspiring actress Melinda Hollis vanishes in the hills of Hollywood. Her sister hires PI Ed Traynor to find Melinda and bring her home. Teaming up with Traynor is Jack McMahon, a former L.A. cop who works for the Hollis family business. But a sordid trail leads them straight to the L.A. morgue, where they find the gruesome remains of the missing girl. Now on the hunt for a deranged killer, Traynor and McMahon sink further into the city’s underbelly, where every desire, no matter how depraved, is up for sale—or has at least one director willing to film it. Each clue they find adds to the growing cast of degenerates. None of them cares about murder, but everyone wants a piece of the action… “In this hard-hitting crime novel...Hardacker keeps the action flowing all the way to the violent climax.” —Publishers Weekly

by John Lawton

John Lawton’s debut novel-first published by Viking in 1995, and now being reissued by Grove Press-is a stunning, war-time thriller that cements his place among the greatest crime writers of our era. The first of the Inspector Troy novels, Black Out singularly captures the realities of wartime London, weaving them into a riveting drama that encapsulates the uncertainty of Europe at the dawn of the postwar era.London, 1944. While the Luftwaffe makes its final assault on the already battered British capital, Londoners rush through the streets, seeking underground shelter in the midst of the city’s black out. When the panic subsides, other things begin to surface along with London’s war-worn citizens. A severed arm is discovered by a group of children playing at an East End bomb site, and when Scotland Yard’s Dective Sergeant Frederick Troy arrives at the scene, it becomes apparent that the dismembered body is not the work of a V-1 rocket. After Troy manages to link the severed arm to the disappearance of a refugee scientist form Nazi Germany, America’s newest intelligence agency, the OSS, decides to get involved. The son of a titled Russian émigré, Troy is forced to leave the London he knows and enter a corrupt world of bloody consequences, stateless refugees, and mysterious women as he unearths a chain of secrets leading straight to the Allied high command.

T&’Challa fights for Wakanda&’s future while reckoning with its past in this original Marvel super hero story. Isolated from the world, the African kingdom of Wakanda is a land of scientific and technological marvels unknown to countries even on its own continent.

Black Plumes

by Margery Allingham

Gabrielle Ivory was once a society beauty of such exquisite arrogance that she stared down a queen. But now, nearing 90, she's largely disregarded by the younger members of the Ivory clan, who like to imagine Granny as a bedridden relic of a dead era. That's a mistake, and it's not their only one. A series of malicious attacks is threatening the family business - one of the most prestigious art galleries in the world. Robert Ivory and his high-strung wife, frantic to preserve the status-quo, want to chalk it all up to practical jokes gone wrong. But Gabrielle is not inclined to collude in this delusion. It's a ridiculous modern affectation, she sniffs, to pretend to disregard money.
