|title=Closed for Winter
|author=Jorn Lier Horst
|rating=3
|genre=Crime
|summary=On a remote stretch of the southern Norwegian coast sits a selection of holiday cottages – second homes for the moderately wealthy. When a man turns up to close his down securely for the winter he finds he has been burgled. What's more he finds what seems to be the culprit in the neighbouring property – stone cold dead behind his balaclava and black clothing. The explanation may perhaps lie in the fact that the secluded coastline has been often used for a different kind of crime, but even when Inspector Wisting factors drug-runners into the proceedings, his investigation will still not run according to plan…

|summary=Friends since childhood, Sarah and Jennifer had always admitted that they were so cautious it was daft. They'd even composed their own 'Never List'. As long as they stuck to it they'd be safe, and safe they were until that one night. The night after the college party they forgot 'Never get into the car'. They did. The next thing they're aware of is waking up in a dark cellar with two other girls; four of them altogether but only three of them will emerge. A decade later, Sarah is safe once again, living under a new name with all connections to the past wiped. But then the letter arrives; he's coming for her. It's not over after all.

|title=Beyond Rue Morgue: Further Tales of Edgar Allan Poe's 1st Detective
|author=Paul Kane and Charles Prepolec (Editors)
|rating=3.5
|genre=Anthologies
|summary=C. Auguste Dupin is often regarded as the first fictional detective and at the very least Edgar Allan Poe’s character was the blueprint for many sleuths to come, most notably Sherlock Holmes. Dupin is an eccentric genius from Paris whose use of logic and deduction aid the police on their most baffling cases. The characters literary debut was in the short story ''The Murders in the Rue Morgue'' in 1841 and between 1842 and 1844 Poe wrote two more short stories about Dupin and his exploits. ''Beyond Rue Morgue'' contains nine stories (in addition to the original Poe tale) by various authors and gives many different takes on the same character or influenced by him. From samurai assassins and the apocalypse to an agoraphobic distant relative of Dupin attempting to solve a murder without even leaving her home; the different writers all take the intriguing character to places we wouldn’t expect and the creativity of all keeps the character fresh from story to story.
