Half-elf Samantha Cosse may have gotten kicked out of the Order of Diviners, but she’s still good at finding things, which is why she just opened her own private investigation agency. Paen is one of Sam’s first clients and the only one to set her elf senses tingling, which makes it pretty much impossible to keep their relationship on a professional level. Sam is convinced that she is Paen’s Beloved—the woman who can give him back his soul...whether he wants it or not.

Claire Becker was approaching her twenty-eighth birthday on the night she was killed. Her tragic passing, somewhat poignantly, came hours after finding the truth about what really happened to her family, all those years ago. The precise events of Christmas Day, 1997, would remain a mystery to Claire until the last hours of her life. All those involved that night have a story to tell, and Claire is dead set on uncovering the truth. After seeing her cousin’s face in the paper, Claire sets out on a journey of self-discovery back to her native Scotland. Along the way, she meets the mysterious stranger, Kieran, who takes an unlikely interest in helping her. The man’s name, Claire later discovers, is Gaelic for ‘Little Dark One’. While this man with the mysterious past helps Claire find out her own buried truths, disturbing details involving his own past come to light and his shadowy motives start to become clear. As it happens, Kieran also has a vested interest in the events of that Christmas and maybe he’s not as innocent in all this as he at first appears – he is after all the Little Dark One…

The haunting true story of the elusive serial rapist turned murderer who terrorized California during the 70s and 80s, and of the gifted journalist who died tragically while investigating the case—which was solved in April 2018. Introduction by Gillian Flynn • Afterword by Patton Oswalt “A brilliant genre-buster.... Propulsive, can’t-stop-now reading.” —Stephen King For more than ten years, a mysterious and violent predator committed fifty sexual assaults in Northern California before moving south, where he perpetrated ten sadistic murders. Then he disappeared, eluding capture by multiple police forces and some of the best detectives in the area. Three decades later, Michelle McNamara, a true crime journalist who created the popular website TrueCrimeDiary.com, was determined to find the violent psychopath she called "the Golden State Killer." Michelle pored over police reports, interviewed victims, and embedded herself in the online communities that were as obsessed with the case as she was. I’ll Be Gone in the Dark—the masterpiece McNamara was writing at the time of her sudden death—offers an atmospheric snapshot of a moment in American history and a chilling account of a criminal mastermind and the wreckage he left behind. It is also a portrait of a woman’s obsession and her unflagging pursuit of the truth. Utterly original and compelling, it has been hailed as a modern true crime classic—one which fulfilled Michelle's dream: helping unmask the Golden State Killer.
