|author=Michael Kardos
|title=Before He Finds Her
|rating=4.5
|genre=Thrillers
|summary=The newspaper reports at the time were unanimous: in September 1991 Ramsey Miller held a party for all his neighbours and then, when it ended, killed his wife Allie and toddler daughter Meg, then ran away, remaining a fugitive from justice. The newspapers were wrong. Meg isn't dead but has been kept hidden by her Uncle Wayne and Aunt Kendra, had her name changed to Melanie and has led a sheltered life. No photos, no internet, no friends after school, no holidays away from home. That's no way to live and now she approaches her 18th birthday, Melanie/Meg wants to end her half-life in order to live fully and yet to do that she must risk any form of life. She must find her father before he finds her.

|author=Andrea Camilleri
|summary=Early one morning an Albanian construction worker - a legal resident with a work permit - fell from scaffolding and was dead when his co-workers found him. What struck Montalbano was that there had been rather a lot of what were described as ''tragedies in the workplace'' - six in the last month, in fact, although he was sure that there would be statistics to prove that this was not abnormal within the EU. Strictly it wasn't his case to deal with, but he received an anonymous letter telling him that Pashko Puka was going to be killed. Admittedly the letter arrived ''after'' the death due to a malfunction in the local postal system, but it did mean that it was difficult to think of the death as a 'tragic accident'.

|author=Jane Casey
|title=The Kill
|rating=4.5
|genre=Crime
|summary=I'm quite picky with crime fiction. This oversaturated market seems to teem with mediocre products. There are thrillers with excellent plots that are are badly written, some that contain masterful prose but are, well... boring, and others that are so far-fetched that I end up throwing the book away in disgust. I read Jane Casey′s highly enjoyable stand-alone [[The Missing by Jane Casey|The Missing]] several years ago. ''The Kill'' was my first foray into her Maeve Kerrigan series and I was keen to see how it would stand up.
