Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first three David Hunter crime thrillers, together in one set, featuring the English forensic pathologist and reluctant sleuth. The Chemistry of Death After the tragic loss of his wife and daughter, Dr. David Hunter trades his gritty career in criminal forensics in London for the village of Manham and the peaceful life of a country doctor. But a grisly murder and the kidnapping of a friend pull David back into a world he desperately wishes to leave behind . . . Written in Bone When the scorched remains of a body are found on a remote Hebridean island, local police are certain it’s an accidental death. David, however, believes otherwise. As his investigation begins, a catastrophic storm hits the island, taking out the power. With communication cut off from the mainland, a killer is on the prowl . . . Whispers of the Dead David travels across the Atlantic to Tennessee to visit the Body Farm, the research center where he once trained. There, his former mentor asks David to accompany him to a horrific crime scene in a remote cabin. The corpse is unidentifiable, and the evidence is inconclusive. After a second body is found, David wonders if they’re on the trail of an unstoppable maniac . . . Praise for the David Hunter Thrillers “A nice balance between forensic detail and thrilling action.” —Booklist on The Chemistry of Death “Well-drawn characters and a highly atmospheric closed setting, this is a traditional detective . . . updated for modern tastes and with a likable detective.” —The Denver Post on Written in Bone “This entry reinforces the author’s place in the front rank of forensic crime novelists.” —Publishers Weekly on Whispers of the Dead

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three years ago, David Hunter moved to rural Norfolk to escape his life in London, his gritty work in forensics, and a tragedy that nearly destroyed him. Working as a simple country doctor, seeing his lost wife and daughter only in his dreams, David struggles to remain uninvolved when the corpse of a woman is found in the woods, a macabre sign from her killer decorating her body. In one horrifying instant, the quiet summer countryside that had been David’s refuge has turned malevolent—and suddenly there is no place to hide. The village of Manham is tight-knit, far from the beaten path. As a newcomer, Dr. Hunter is immediately a suspect. Once an expert in analyzing human remains, he reluctantly joins the police investigation—and when another woman disappears, it soon becomes personal. Because this time she is someone David knows, someone who has managed to penetrate the icy barrier around his heart. With a killer’s bizarre and twisted methods screaming out to him, with a brooding countryside beset with suspicion, David can feel the darkness gathering around him. For as the clock ticks down on a young woman’s life, David must follow a macabre trail of clues—all the way to its final, horrifying conclusion.

Chilling, visceral and masterfully paced, Simon Beckett’s new crime thriller will leave you gasping.

Book excerpt: A forensic pathologist discovers a vicious killer loose on a remote Scottish isle in this British thriller by “one of the country’s best crime writers” (Sunday Express). Dr. David Hunter should be at home in London with the woman he loves. Instead, as a favor to a beleaguered colleague, he’s on the remote Hebridean island of Runa to inspect a grisly discovery. David is shocked by what he finds: a body almost totally incinerated except for the feet and a single hand. The local police are certain it’s an accidental death, but David is not convinced. After examining the scorched remains, it’s clear to David that this was no accident—it was murder. But as the small, isolated community considers the enormity of David’s findings, a catastrophic storm hits the island. The power goes down, communication with the mainland is cut off, and then the killing begins in earnest . . .

Desperate to avoid the police, Sean takes to the hedgerows and country lanes hoping to find shelter. Nearly unconscious from pain and loss of blood, Sean is taken in by two women, the daughters of the man who runs a local farm with a ramshackle barn, blighted vineyard, and a brooding lake. And that’s when Sean’s problems really start, because this family that has taken him in is anything but normal.

The original document must be found—and the one American who can do the job is Dirk Pitt. But in London, a daring counterplot is being orchestrated to see that the treaty is never implemented.

But can he tame the violence in his own nature? At a cabin in the Allegheny National Forest, Dylan Hunter and Annie Woods seek to heal the wounds from their ordeal at the hands of a twisted psychopath. And to build a life together, Dylan promises Annie that he'll abandon his violent ways. But ideological zealots and Washington's political elites have conspired to terrorize and plunder the hard-working locals. These victims have no protector against the bad deeds of the powerful and privileged... ...except for one man. A man as ruthless and violent as they. A man committed to absolute justice. Because Dylan Hunter cannot walk away --not even if it costs him the woman he loves... Praise for Robert Bidinotto'sprevious bestselling thriller... HUNTER "One of the best vigilante thrillers since Clancy's Without Remorse... HUNTER delivers in a way few thrillers do. From the opening kill shot to the climactic showdown, HUNTER strikes home with the power and pinpoint accuracy of a Barrett M99... A fantastic debut thriller... A solid five stars." --Stephen England, author, Pandora's Grave and Day of Reckoning "A terrifically paced suspense novel with a killer premise... If you're a fan of Lee Child's Jack Reacher series, I suspect you'll like HUNTER." --Randy Ingermanson, "America's Mad Professor of Fiction Writing" and author, Writing Fiction for Dummies "Please order a copy of Robert's new thriller HUNTER if you want something that will keep you up at night turning pages." --Neil Russell, author, City of War, Wildcase, and Beverly Hills Is Burning "A joy... one of the great romances... To say that HUNTER is a well-structured novel is an understatement... Even the lesser characters are vividly realized [and] memorably etched with a few deft strokes. Bidinotto seems incapable of creating a cardboard figure... I demand a sequel. I want to return to the exhilarating moral atmosphere of Bidinotto's story." --Roger Donway, reviewer, "The Atlasphere" "...pulse-pounding action, kick-ass characters, and a touch of romance... Bidinotto's technique is near flawless... [O]n the same level as authors Tom Clancy, John Grisham, and James Patterson." --Allizabeth Collins, reviewer, "The Paperback Pursuer" "I read the whole thing yesterday, to the exclusion of pretty much anything else... I LOVED the book." --Rose Robbins, author, In From the Cold, Continue As Jenyfer?, and Deep Blue Ocean "...all the elements of an exciting thriller--strong conflicts, romance, action, and characters you care about.

Her cotton blouse has ridden up a little, revealing two small dots an inch apart on her back. Just like the others. Guilt has kept FBI Agent Tori Hunter away from her home in Manchester Bay, Minnesota for twenty years, ever since her twin sister disappeared on the Fourth of July, when the girls should have been together.

Just like Tori’s sister, Genevieve vanished without a trace, her empty car abandoned on a lonely lakeside road as Independence Day fireworks lit up the sky overhead. Returning to Minnesota lake country, Tori finds Genevieve’s distraught parents desperate for answers. How could their beautiful, popular daughter be snatched so near her own home? Under pressure to make an arrest, the police have no time for Tori’s theories. Besides, they already have a suspect for Genevieve’s abductor: a local man seen flirting with her the night she disappeared. But then the suspect is found dead in his isolated cabin, days before another girl’s body is discovered bound and strangled in the trunk of her car, two strange dots on her back. The bloodstains surrounding her body belong to the one man Tori thought she could trust. Reeling, Tori knows the closer she gets to the truth, the more her own life is at risk.

Book excerpt: “A novelistic mosaic that simultaneously reads like a thriller and like a strange, dreamlike excursion into the subconscious.” —The New York Times Years ago, when House of Leaves was first being passed around, it was nothing more than a badly bundled heap of paper, parts of which would occasionally surface on the Internet. No one could have anticipated the small but devoted following this terrifying story would soon command. Starting with an odd assortment of marginalized youth -- musicians, tattoo artists, programmers, strippers, environmentalists, and adrenaline junkies -- the book eventually made its way into the hands of older generations, who not only found themselves in those strangely arranged pages but also discovered a way back into the lives of their estranged children. Now this astonishing novel is made available in book form, complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and second and third appendices. The story remains unchanged, focusing on a young family that moves into a small home on Ash Tree Lane where they discover something is terribly wrong: their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Of course, neither Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson nor his companion Karen Green was prepared to face the consequences of that impossibility, until the day their two little children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story -- of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams.
