From out of the whiteness, a dark figure comes... December, 1930, Ukraine. After the horrors of war, Luka wants a quiet life with his family. His village has, so far, remained hidden from the advancing Soviet brutality - but everything changes the day a stranger arrives, pulling a sled bearing a terrible cargo: the bodies of two children. When the villagers' fear turns deadly, they think they have saved themselves. And then a little girl vanishes. Luka is the only man with the skills to find the stolen child in these frozen lands. And though his toughest enemy is the man he tracks through the harsh winter landscape, his strongest bond is a promise to his family back home...

Oskari tvivler på, om han er mand nok for opgaven. Men i stedet for byttedyr finder han ved et tilfælde en redningskapsel fra et brændende fly: Air Force One. Terrorister har skudt USA’s præsident ned over skoven, og nu er de på vej for at slå ham ihjel. Drengejægeren og verdens mægtigste mand er nu jaget vildt. Indtil de beslutter sig for selv at gå på jagt …

Kolya sets out on a journey through dense, haunting forests and across vast plains as bitter winter sets in, in the desperate hope he will find his family. But there are very dark things in his past - and there's someone, or something, on his trail... Read by Nigel Carrington (p) 2014 Orion Publishing Group

Red Winter

There were times I felt I would always be death's passenger. It moved one step ahead of me wherever I went, letting its shadow fall across me. It carried me on; shaded me from the world other people lived in.' Leaving behind his life of violence in Brazil's darkest shadows, Zico is determined to become a better man. But it seems his old life isn't quite done with him yet when he's tasked with making one last kill. It's one that could get him everything he has ever wanted; a house, some land, cash in his pocket, a future for him and his girlfriend, Daniella. But this one isn't like all the others. This one comes at a much higher price. THE DARKEST HEART is a journey through the shadowy heart of Brazil and the even darker mind of a killer, where fear is a death sentence and the only chance of survival might mean abandoning the only good thing you've ever known.

Big Game

Det är något märkligt som sker i Old River där Peter, Nancy och Amit bor. Nancys mamma har betett sig konstigt ända sedan gasbolaget la ner sin anläggning. Mamman står inte ut med ljus. Fryser hela tiden. Äter inget. Och ögonen är som döda. Snart är hon inte ensam om att bete sig märkligt. Allt fler i byn blir bara allt konstigare och konstigare. Märkliga saker är den nya serien för alla som älskar det övernaturliga. Läskigt men lättsamt från den prisvinnande författaren Dan Smith. Aktuella teman som virus och miljöförstöring blandas med populära övernaturliga inslag från fantastiken. En spännande, ryslig bok om ett mysterium från underjorden. Hegas böcker – lätta att läsa. Svåra att motstå.

Märkliga saker

Levande smitta

I skogens mörker rör sig en skrämmande varelse. Är den anledningen till att ingen får gå in i den här delen av skogen? Peter, Amit och Nancy är på läger med sin klass. De ger sig in i skogen mitt i natten, trots att de inte får. Där inne hittar de något som kallas ”Institutet”. Det verkar vara ett övergivet laboratorium där försvaret har forskat. Men vad gjorde de för experiment?

I skogens mörker

Ett flygplan kraschar i byn och snart är inget sig likt. Först tystnar fåglarna. Sedan faller getterna i koma. Amit, Nancy och Peter misstänker att det har med flygplanet att göra. Och snart kommer hotet riktigt nära. Något farligt händer på Amits gård. Oförklarliga, övernaturliga saker fortsätter att drabba de tre vännerna och deras småstad. Det är spännande, och lagom läskigt, för den som behöver starkt framåtdriv i läsningen. Samtidigt som dramatiska saker sker gestaltas också viktiga teman som vänskap, syskonrelationer, hjälpsamhet och mod liksom människans påverkan på naturen. Fångade i skräckens nät är den prisbelönte författaren Dan Smiths tredje fristående del i serien Märkliga saker.
