Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Some debts can only be paid in blood.Some crowns can only be worn by those willing to bleed.>The photograph arrived at dawn. No envelope. No warning. Just a faded image of a courtroom-and a face crossed out in red ink. Adriano Cattivello, the man Viviana Dragan put behind bars for thirty years, is free. A technicality. A bought judge. Three years in a cage, and now he's out-building a case that could destroy everything she loves. The past has teeth. Once a ruthless prosecutor, Viviana left the law behind when she married Leon Dragan, the head of a mafia empire. She chose violence. She chose love. She thought she could outrun her father's sins. She was wrong. Cattivello doesn't want revenge. He wants correction. He wants to watch her lose her freedom, her family, her future-and then let her live, just so she can remember. The only way to survive is to become the woman she used to be. With a traitor seeking redemption, a mentor who never loses, and a husband who would burn the world for her, Viviana steps back into the courtroom-not as a prosecutor, but as the accused. And somewhere deep inside her, a new life grows. A secret she hasn't told anyone. Not yet. Skin That Wears the Crown is the third book in the Skin Series, a dark mafia romantic drama about mercy, violence, and the impossible choice between justice and survival. Perfect for readers who love morally grey heroes, fierce heroines, and courtroom tension that cuts to the bone. This is not a book about innocent people. This is a book about people who have done terrible things and are trying to build something worth keeping. Praise for the Skin Series: 'Dark, lyrical, and utterly addictive.' 'A perfect blend of legal thriller and mafia romance.' 'Viviana is the heroine I've been waiting for.'.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The Alliance is a lie. The truth is a map. Vlad Volkov has spent his life drawing maps for a government that edits reality. He knows how to chart a city, document a disaster, and turn human suffering into an acceptable report. What he does not know is why a black bird has begun appearing outside his apartment-or why its arrival coincides with impossible changes in the streets around him. Drawn into the secret machinery of the Unified Field of Axioms, Vlad discovers that history is not recorded there. It is controlled. Memories can be revised, cities can be reordered, and entire lives can be reduced to a single approved narrative. Ksenia understands the power of a perfect story. The Bookbinder knows the terrible cost of creating one. Between them stands Vlad: a reluctant cartographer, a keeper of forbidden memories, and a man forced to confront the choices he once abandoned-including the choice to remain human in a world that rewards obedience. As the boundaries between truth and fiction begin to collapse, Vlad must decide whether to restore the system, destroy it, or create something more dangerous: a world where people are free to remember, suffer, love, and choose their own endings. NEXUS is a dark speculative novel about memory, identity, love, and the dangerous freedom of an unwritten future.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A blank map. A pencil that won't hold its marks. And a child waiting in the salt.>No salary is offered. No return date. No rescue protocol. On the salt flats, the archivist finds a child sitting at the center of a white horizon. The child does not speak. The child does not blink. The child waits three hours and then holds out one hand. Together they walk west through cities of shifting names, sulfur plains where every word returns as three contradictory meanings, mirror fields that show faces the archivist has never worn, and a train station where a radio broadcasts the names of everyone who has ever been forgotten. But the Erasure is not a place. It is a verb. And the archivist is carrying a machine-one built years ago, one that cannot be reversed-that has already erased the only thing that mattered. The Paper Bird is a haunting work of literary speculative fiction about parental grief, the ethics of forgetting, and the long walk toward remembering what you chose to destroy. For readers of Kazuo Ishiguro's\*The Buried Giant, Jeff VanderMeer's Annihilation, and Juan Rulfo's Pedro Páramo. 'The map is not the territory. But sometimes the map is all the territory there is.'.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - He was a man who had learned to survive without a heart. She was the one thing he never expected to want. Kane Winter has spent eight years building an empire from his father's ashes-and carving out every part of himself that could be hurt. Love is a debt he refuses to pay. Emotion is a liability he can't afford. Until a name crosses his desk attached to an old blood debt: Vittoria Calder, the daughter of a man who died hiding a secret that could destroy the Winter family. She's not a threat. She's a restorer of old paintings, a woman who spends her life repairing what others have broken. But the debt isn't money-it's honor. And Kane Winter collects what he's owed. 'That is the debt I am collecting. Not money. Honor. Silence.' Vittoria Calder refuses to be a victim. Taken from her studio and forced into the house of a man who rules Chicago's underworld, she refuses to break. She demands honesty, partnership, and the right to choose her own fate. But as she restores his mother's ruined altarpiece, she discovers something beneath Kane's frozen surface: a man who has spent years learning to survive without a heart-and who is terrified of what happens when it starts to grow back. She came to settle a debt. She stayed to restore a man. When a rival syndicate threatens everything they've built, Kane must choose between the empire he's spent a decade protecting and the woman who has become his most dangerous liability.

A dark mafia romance about inheritance, honesty, and the terrifying cost of letting yourself feel again.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The first lie is that the visitor came from elsewhere.The second is that we were waiting. Mara Levent has made a career of tracing the seams where memory splits from truth. As a specialist in impossible recollections, she knows that the mind does not record - it reconstructs. It stitches together borrowed cloth and calls it a life. But when Elias Thorne walks into her clinic with a photograph from 1987 - showing a woman who is unmistakably Mara, decades before her birth - her professional faith begins to crumble. The handwriting on the back is hers. The scar on the hand is hers. The place is Veysk, a northern installation that official maps pretend does not exist. A cryptic summons from her estranged brother draws Mara north, into a tundra where the snow conceals perfect black circles cut into the earth. There, she discovers the truth: she is not a person, but a composite. A vessel built from the memories of the dead, filled over decades with the residue of other people's lives until the accumulation became a person who believed she was real. Now the installation is failing. The patterns are degrading. And the dead - stored for forty years in tapes, files, and glass - are learning to choose their vessels. Mara stands at the heart of a choice that will echo through the living and the dead: refuse the memories and become empty, or claim them and become full. Because the dead do not need to be saved.They only need someone willing to remember. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - On the twelfth anniversary of his sister's death, Elian Moore receives a phone call from a number that has been disconnected for eleven years. The voice on the other end is Grace's-but Grace drowned as a child. She warns him not to come to the garden. She begs him to remember the last call. And then the line goes dead. Below the Russian city of Ufa, Elian descends into Vesperfall-an impossible orchard where memory is currency, names are doors, and the dead are loved incorrectly. Guided by the enigmatic Irena Vale and haunted by a childhood name he gave away, Elian must restore seven stolen names before Halloween midnight. If he fails, the orchard will open into the living world-and the Keeper will claim the one name Elian has spent twelve years trying to forget.

Atmospheric, haunting, and unexpectedly tender, it asks what we owe to the dead-and what we owe to ourselves when we refuse to let them go.…
