RUSH OF BLOOD
BILLINGHAM, MARK
Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012
Three couples meet around the pool on their Florida holiday and become fast friends. But on their last night, their
perfect holiday takes a tragic twist: the teenage daughter of another holidaymaker goes missing and her body is
later found floating in the mangroves. When the shocked couples return home, they remain in contact and over
the course of three increasingly fraught dinner parties they come to know one another better. But they don't
always like what they find: buried beneath these apparently normal exteriors are some dark secrets, hidden
kinks, ugly vices... Then, a second girl goes missing. Could it be that one of these six has a secret far darker
than anybody can imagine?

SACRIFICE FLY
O'MARA, TIM
Raymond Donne wasn’t always a school teacher. Not only did he patrol the streets of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, as
a police officer, but being the nephew of the chief of detectives, he was expected to go on to bigger things. But
when an accident destroyed his knees and he was no longer able to do the job the way he wanted, he became a
teacher in the same neighborhood. He put the force behind him and came to terms with the change, or at least
he thought he had until Frankie Rivas, one of his students and a baseball phenom, stops showing up to class.
With Frankie in danger of failing and missing out on a scholarship, Ray goes looking for him only to find
Frankie’s father bludgeoned to death on the floor of their apartment. Frankie and his younger sister are gone,
possibly on the run. But did they really kill their father? Ray can’t believe it. But then who did and where are
Frankie and his sister? To bring Frankie and his sister home safely Ray must return to the life, the people, and
the demons he walked out on all those years ago.

SAFE HOUSE
EWAN, CHRIS
When Rob Hale wakes up in a hospital after a motorcycle crash, his first thought is for the gorgeous blonde,
Lena, who was on the back of his bike. The doctors and police, however, insist that he was alone at the scene.
The shock of the accident must have made him imagine Lena, especially since his description of her resembles
his late sister, Laura. Convinced that Lena is as real as he is, Rob teams up with Rebecca Lewis, a Londonbased
PI who has a mysterious connection to Laura—and learns that even a close-knit community like the Isle of
Man can hide dangerous secrets that will not stay safe forever.
