Now You See Me is the first in the Lacey Flint series, followed by Dead Scared and Lost. "Bolton is changing the face of crime fiction—if you only read one crime novel this year, make it this." —Tess Gerritsen on Now You See Me "Really special: multi-layered and sophisticated, but tough too." —Lee Child on Now You See Me One night after interviewing a reluctant witness at a London apartment complex, Lacey Flint, a young detective constable, stumbles onto a woman brutally stabbed just moments before in the building's darkened parking lot. Within twenty-four hours a reporter receives an anonymous letter that points out alarming similarities between the murder and Jack the Ripper's first murder—a letter that calls out Lacey by name. If it's real, and they have a killer bent on re-creating London's bloody past, history shows they have just five days until the next attempt. No one believes the connections are anything more than a sadistic killer's game, not even Lacey, whom the killer seems to be taunting specifically. However, as they investigate the details of the case start reminding her more and more of a part of her past she'd rather keep hidden. And the only way to do that is to catch the killer herself. Fast paced and completely riveting, S. J. Bolton's Now You See Me is a modern gothic novel that is nothing less than a masterpiece of suspense fiction. A Kirkus Reviews Best of 2011 Mysteries title and one of Library Journal's Best Mystery Books of 2011.

They were now in search of a killer...a serial killer who is seeking out only women to be his victims and leaving no clues. Women who had lived in Rivertown all of their lives, all friends and neighbors. Another lifelong friend, George Marsh, the only lawyer in town, is called on to defend the suspect. He has no choice but to defend the person. When the Marshall finally gets a break, is it enough to prove his suspect is guilty? The decision would be left entirely in the hands of the jury.

For feisty Los Angeles crime reporter Molly Blume, life is good. She is newly married (to the adoring and adorable Rabbi Zack), and her latest true-crime book is a hot seller. However, when an overardent fan’s attentions arouse Molly’s suspicion, her thoughts turn uneasily to stalkers. But the fan, Reuben Jastrow, swears that he desperately needs Molly’s help in finding his eighteen-year-old daughter, Hadassah, who has run away from home to be with a man she met on the Internet. Molly hesitantly agrees–and immediately has regrets. For Reuben hasn’t told her the whole truth. The more Molly looks for clues to the missing girl’s fate, the more she wonders: Is Hadassah a random victim of a predator, or is the girl a pawn in a scheme of revenge against her family? It’s a long, deadly path that stretches before Molly, a path mined with hidden passions and festering secrets. And it ends with a final twist and an unnerving truth: What we don’t see can lead to danger . . . and tragedy.

An orphan and a fugitive find a connection in their secret pasts in this “love story that moves with the pace of a thriller” from an award-winning author (Yorkshire Post). At sixteen, Lamb walks out on her life. Her parents are dead and she has no brothers or sisters. For money, she cleans people’s homes. For shelter, she lives in the cellar of an elderly client. For survival, she imagines herself as a tightrope walker—one foot in front of the other, eyes straight ahead, and never allowing anyone to touch her, lest she lose her balance. Then she meets Doggo. And Lamb can feel herself falling. Doggo walked out on his life, too—or more precisely, he ran. A fugitive fleeing from a violent criminal past, he needs Lamb’s help staying under the radar. Quick-tempered, foul-mouthed, yet surprisingly tender, Doggo needs Lamb in other ways, too. But the closer they get, the more Lamb risks her precarious balance between life and death. And fear has never felt so comforting. Now You See Me, from Somerset Maugham Award winner Lesley Glaister, is an empowering novel about loneliness, trust, the fictions we tell ourselves to survive, and the primal need to connect. It also “boasts a protagonist so heartbreakingly well-realized that you are forced to live through her eyes, in her head, her heart . . . if only all fiction made us worry and care so hard, posed us such dreadfully difficult questions” (The Guardian). “Glaister is at her best . . . written in the crisply poetic prose for which she’s known, [she] transforms the bleakest situations into compelling fiction.” —The Independent “Before Gillian Flynn, there was Lesley Glaister.” —Harper’s Bazaar
