New Releases by Ally Carter

Dois escritores rivais. Uma mansão isolada no Natal. Um mistério que têm de resolver... antes que se matem (ou se beijem!) «Faltam três dias para o Natal. A ponte está cortada. Os telefones não funcionam. E a escritora de mistério mais famosa do mundo acabou de desaparecer de um quarto trancado por dentro.» Conhece Maggie Chase e Ethan Wyatt: ela é a nova rainha dos mistérios mais cozy; ele é o mestre dos thrillers cheios de ação. Ela não o suporta; ele insiste em chamá-la "Marcie" (apesar de ela já o ter corrigido umas cinquenta vezes). Quando ambos aceitam um convite misterioso para passar o Natal numa mansão inglesa isolada, não estão à espera de que a anfitriã seja ninguém menos do que Eleanor Ashley — a lendária «Duquesa da Morte». Mas, nessa noite, a tempestade desaba... e, na manhã seguinte, Eleanor desapareceu. De uma sala trancada. Terá sido raptada? Ou será tudo parte de um jogo engenhoso? E o que é, afinal, Ethan Wyatt — rival, cúmplice... ou o único em quem Maggie pode confiar? À medida que a neve se acumula e as pistas se tornam cada vez mais perigosas, Maggie e Ethan vão ter de trabalhar lado a lado (e talvez coração com coração) para resolver o mistério — e sobreviver ao Natal. Isso, claro, se não se matarem um ao outro primeiro.

“Ally Carter wrote a unique, delightful, hilarious, unputdownable romance! I didn’t know I needed an adventure romcom about grumpy/sunshine spies with amazing chemistry and a dash of amnesia, but it was exactly what was missing in my life. I’m wonderstruck by The Blonde Identity! (Also, this book needs to be a movie!)” -- Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author An action-packed, second-chance rom-com about two rival spies who must join forces in order to stay alive, from New York Times bestselling author Ally Carter. Ten years ago, they joined the CIA. Six years ago, he left the game. Five years ago, they fell in love. One year ago, she ran out into the cold with absolutely no intention of ever coming back. And two minutes ago, they woke up, bloody and bruised and handcuffed together in the dark. They don’t know where they are. They don’t know how they got there. And they have absolutely no idea who is after them or what this nameless, faceless villain wants. The only thing that’s clear is that, after ten years of covers and chemistry, secrets and lies, these two rival spies have been sucked into their greatest mission yet, and now they’re going to have to team up to stay alive. (If they don’t kill each other first.)

That night, the weather turns, and the next morning Eleanor is gone. She vanished from a locked room, and Maggie has to wonder: Is Eleanor in danger? Or is it all some kind of test?

Când April, o fetiță de unsprezece ani, se alătură grupului de copii care locuiesc la Casa Winterborne, știe că n-o să rămână acolo pentru mult timp. Până la urmă, nu și-a dorit să trăiască într-un castel imens și înfricoșător, alături de niște puști orfani care nu înțeleg că ea este diferită. Însă mama ei are să se întoarcă s-o ia, peste puțin timp, și tot ce trebuie să facă April până atunci este să găsească indiciile pe care aceasta i le-a lăsat prin castel. Curând, descoperă că Winterborne nu e o casă precum celelalte: ascunde o mulțime de secrete, cum este misterul moștenitorului dispărut, o legendă înfiorătoare, și cel al cheii misterioase, despre care nu se știe ce poate deschide. Cum pericolul pândește la fiecare colț al castelului, April și prietenii ei trebuie să facă echipă, ca să elucideze misterele familiei Winterborne, înainte să piardă definitiv singurul loc pe care ajung să-l considere acasă. „O combinație de umor, personaje unice și bizarerii, pe care n-o poți lăsa din mână: cititorii nu se vor mai putea desprinde de ea, până târziu în noapte, când vor simți nevoia să verifice și subsolul… pentru orice eventualitate.”ALEXANDRA BRACKEN,autoarea seriei prosper redding, bestseller The New York Times „O carte plină de aventură, mister, cu întorsături de situație și prietenii surprinzătoare. M-am îndrăgostit de ea!”MELISSA DE LA CRUZ, autoarea seriei The Descendants bestseller The New York Times „Este genul de lectură care te ține cu sufletul la gură. Debutul lui Carter în literatura pentru pre adolescenți este un triumf: o poveste sfâșietoare despre regăsirea familiei și un roman polițist captivant și evocator, care te face să dai pagină după pagină. Am fost impresionată de personajul lui April […] și de curajul extraordinar de care dă dovadă când se deschide în fața celorlalți.”ROSHANI CHOKSHI, autoarea romanului Aru Shah și sfârșitul timpului, bestseller The New York Times „Un thriller modern împletit cu literatura de aventuri în stil clasic.”School Library Journal ISBN ebook: 9789731289274

Don''t miss a single moment of the beloved, bestselling Gallagher Girls series in this ebook collection, where spies-in-training navigate secret missions, friendship, betrayals, and first love. Cammie Morgan is a student at the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women, a fairly typical all-girls school -- that is, if every school taught advanced martial arts in PE and the latest in chemical warfare in science, and students received extra credit for breaking CIA codes in computer class. The Gallagher Academy might claim to be a school for geniuses but it''s really a school for spies. Even though Cammie is fluent in fourteen languages and capable of killing a man in seven different ways, she has no idea what to do when she meets an ordinary boy who thinks she''s an ordinary girl. Sure, she can tap his phone, hack into his computer, or track him through town with the skill of a real "pavement artist" -- but can she maneuver a relationship with someone who can never know the truth about her? Cammie Morgan may be an elite spy-in-training, but she''s on her most dangerous mission yet -- falling in love. This ebook collection includes all six Gallagher Girls books: I''d Tell You I Love You, But Then I''d Have to Kill You, Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy, Don''t Judge a Girl by Her Cover, Only the Good Spy Young, Out of Sight, Out of Time, and United We Spy.

Celebrate the 10th anniversary of the New York Times best-selling Gallagher Girls series with this new edition, featuring an exclusive epilogue from Ally Carter! After staking out, obtaining, and then being forced to give up her first boyfriend, Josh, all Cammie Morgan wants is a peaceful semester. But that''s easier said than done when you''re a CIA legacy and go to the premier school in the world . . . for spies. Cammie may have a genius I.Q., but there are still a lot of things she doesn''t know. Like, will her ex-boyfriend even remember she exists? And how much trouble is she really in after what happened last semester? And most of all, why is her mother acting so strangely? Despite Cammie''s best intentions to be a normal student, danger seems to follow her. She and her friends learn that their school is going to play host to some mysterious guests-code name: Blackthorne. Then she''s blamed for a security breach that leaves the school''s top secret status at risk. Soon, Cammie and her friends are crawling through walls and surveilling the school to learn the truth about Blackthorne and clear Cammie''s name. Even though they have confidence in their spy skills, this time the targets are tougher (and hotter), and the stakes for Cammie''s heart-and her beloved school-are higher than ever.

Some secrets are better left unfound. For the past three years, Grace Blakely has been desperate to find out the truth about her mother’s murder. She thought it would bring her peace. She thought it would lead her to answers. She thought she could put the past to rest. But the truth has only made her a target. And the past? The only way to put the past to rest is for Grace to kill it once and for all. On Embassy Row, power can make you a victor or a victim, love can turn you into a fool or a fugitive and family can lead you forward or bury you deep. Trust is a luxury. Death is a very real threat. And a girl like Grace must be very careful about which secrets she brings to light.

Pour Cammie, c’est l’heure de la plus terrifiante de ses missions de jeune espionne. Bien pire que de sauter d’un avion en plein vol, pire que de subir un interrogatoire dans une prison haute sécurité, pire que de désamorcer une bombe... Elle doit décider de son avenir. La cérémonie des diplômes arrive à grands pas, pourtant elle ne sait toujours pas quelle institution l’accueillera dans un an. FBI ? CIA ? MI6 ? Interpol ? Pour couronner le tout, sa dernière année à la Gallagher Academy est interrompue par un nouveau plan du Cercle. Pas facile de terminer son lycée et en même temps de sauver le monde entier !

Une organisation secrète cherche à m''enlever ! L''opération " Protection ultime " est déclenchée : on ne plaisante pas avec la sécurité des apprenties espionnes à la Gallagher Academy. Mais mon ennemi est rusé et je ne sais plus qui croire. Ceux qui prétendent que M. Solomon est un agent double qui travaille pour mes ennemis ? Ceux qui m''assurent qu''il ne me ferait jamais de mal ? Et Zach, dans quel camp est-il ?

Une nouvelle année à la Gallagher Academy s''apprête à commencer pour Cammie et ses amies super-espionnes. Mais pour l''heure, ce sont encore les vacances. Cammie a été invitée à Boston chez Macey, dont le père vient d''être nommé vice-président des États-Unis. Pourtant "vacances" ne rime pas toujours avec "réjouissances" : les deux amies se retrouvent confrontées à une tentative d''enlèvement. Seuls leurs talents d''espionnes leur permettent de se tirer de justesse de ce mauvais pas. Qui en a donc après Macey ? Et comment la protéger ? Cette fois, l''enquête est sérieuse et le danger réel.

"""Cammie Morgan mungkin cewek genius, menguasai empat belas bahasa, jago mengurai kode rahasia tingkat tinggi, dan merupakan """"harta"""" berharga CIA. Kadang ia bahkan merasa dirinya bisa menghilang. Untungnya, di Akademi Gallagher hal itu dianggap keren. Jelas saja, karena Akademi Gallagher sebenarnya sekolah mata-mata top secret. Tapi soal cowok, Cammie benar-benar idiot. Ia nggak berkutik waktu Josh yang superkeren terang-terangan menatapnya di karnaval kota Roseville. Padahal saat itu Cammie sedang menjalankan misi Operasi Rahasia-nya yang pertama, padahal teman-teman sekelasnya pun nggak bisa melihat keberadaannya. Siapa cowok itu? Haruskah ia memeriksa sidik jari Josh, mengintai dan menyamar, mengerahkan kemampuan mata-matanya untuk menyelidiki cowok itu? Meskipun tahu Gallagher Girls nggak boleh berhubungan dengan cowok-cowok lokal di Roseville, Cammie sepertinya nggak bisa menolak daya tarik Josh, karena satu fakta penting ini: Josh melihatnya saat nggak seorang pun bisa melihatnya."""

"""Mata-mata yang luar biasa merupakan pembohong terbaik. Begitu kata Kepala Sekolah Akademi Gallagher—sekolah mata-mata top secret—suatu kali. Dan ketika peristiwa mengerikan di London membuka rahasia bahwa salah satu orang yang paling dipercayainya ternyata agen ganda, Cammie mulai bertanya-tanya apakah ia bisa memercayai orang lain. Termasuk Zach, si cowok keren sekaligus calon mata-mata hebat. Seberapa banyak kata-kata cowok itu yang benar dan seberapa banyak yang tidak? Kali ini Cammie benar-benar harus menentukan siapa saja yang bisa ia percaya, dan membuktikan apakah dirinya cukup lihai… untuk menjadi mata-mata."""

"""Mata-mata punya penyamaran untuk setiap kesempatan. Mata-mata hebat bisa berubah jadi orang yang berbeda dalam sekejab. Sejak dulu Cammie Morgan sudah tahu fakta itu. Tetapi baru semester ini Cammie benar-benar menyadari bagaimana mata-mata harus mengaplikasikannya dalam kehidupan nyata di luar dinding-dinding tinggi mansion Gallagher. Cammie dan teman-temannya di kelas sebelas memang sudah dipersiapkan dengan baik oleh Akademi Gallagher, terutama sejak Mr. Solomon membawa mereka menyusuri lorong bawah tanah menuju Sublevel Dua dan mengajari mereka cara menyamar sebaik mungkin. Tapi Cammie harus mempelajari sendiri salah satu pelajaran terpenting dalam hidup mata-mata: bahwa kau nggak bisa menilai seseorang dari penyamaran yang mereka kenakan... terutama kalau itu menyangkut Zach."""
