Ian Rankin and Peter James deliver an unforgettable crossover in "In the Nick of Time," as iconic detectives John Rebus and Roy Grace confront a gripping mystery that tests their deductive skills and mettle.

In "Gaslighted," by R.L. Stine, Douglas Preston, and Lincoln Child, the eerie presence of Slappy the Ventriloquist Dummy introduces Aloysius Pendergast to a new realm of horror, delivering an unsettling and tension-filled narrative.

"The Laughing Buddha" pairs the mystique of Malachai Samuels with the relentless pursuit of D.D. Warren, penned by M.J. Rose and Lisa Gardner, combining suspense with an intricate mystery steeped in intrigue.
