An obsession with an immortal serial killer entangles a vampire hunter’s daughter in a sapphic romance in this enthralling gothic fantasy from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Lucy Undying. “Grisly and electrifying, innovating and moving . . . Kiersten White never misses.”—Allison Saft, author of A Dark and Drowning Tide Anneke has a complicated relationship with her father, Abraham Van Helsing—doctor, scientist, and madman devoted to the study of vampires—until the night she comes home to find him murdered, with a surreally beautiful woman looming over his body. A woman who leaves no trace behind, other than the dreams and nightmares that now plague Anneke every night. Spurred by her desire for vengeance and armed with the latest forensic and investigatory techniques, Anneke puts together a team of detectives to catch this mysterious serial killer. Because her father isn’t the only inexplicable dead body. There’s a trail of victims across Europe, and Anneke is certain they’re all connected. But during the years spent relentlessly hunting the killer, Anneke keeps crucial evidence to herself: infuriatingly coy letters, addressed only to her, occasionally soaked in blood, and always signed Diavola. The closer Anneke gets to her devil, though, the less sense the world makes. Maybe her father wasn’t a madman after all. Diavola might be something much worse than a serial killer . . . and much harder to destroy. Yet as Anneke unearths more of Diavola’s tragic past, she suspects there’s still a heart somewhere in that undead body. A heart that beats for Anneke alone.

While journeying north toward the Dark Queen, Guinevere falls into the hands of her enemies. Behind her are Lancelot, trapped on the other side of the magical barrier they created to protect Camelot, and Arthur, who has been led away from his kingdom, chasing after false promises. But the greatest danger isn''t what lies ahead of Guinevere--it''s what''s been buried inside her. Vowing to unravel the truth of her past with or without Merlin''s help, Guinevere joins forces with the sorceress Morgana and her son, Mordred--and faces the confusing, forbidden feelings she still harbors for him. When Guinevere makes an agonizing discovery about who she is and how she came to be, she finds herself with an impossible choice: fix a terrible crime, or help prevent war. Guinevere is determined to set things right, whatever the cost. To defeat a rising evil. To remake a kingdom. To undo the mistakes of the past...even if it means destroying herself.

When Aunt Saffronia suggests a week pass to the Fathoms of Fun Waterpark, they hastily agree. But the park is even stranger than Aunt Saffronia. The waterslides look like gray gargoyle tongues. The employees wear creepy black dresses and deliver ominous messages. An impossible figure is at the top of the slide tower, people are disappearing, and suspicious goo is seeping into the wave pool. Something mysterious is happening at Fathoms of Fun, and it’s up to the twins to get to the bottom of it. The mystery, that is. NOT the wave pool. Definitely NOT the wave pool. But are Theo and Alexander out of their depth?

She has no sense of who she truly was before she was Guinevere. The more she tries to claim herself as queen, the more she wonders if Mordred was right: she doesn''t belong. She never will.

LA PRINCESA GINEBRA HA LLEGADO A CAMELOT PARA CASARSE CON UN EXTRAÑO: EL CARISMÁTICO REY ARTURO. Con la magia que extiende sus garras por las fronteras del reino de Arturo, el emblemático mago Merlín tiene una solución: decide enviar a Ginebra para que se convierta en la esposa de Arturo, para que pueda protegerlos de aquellos que buscan la caída de la ciudad que gobierna el joven rey. ¿Cuál es la trampa? El verdadero nombre de Ginebra… Su identidad verdadera. Nadie la conoce realmente. Ella es una sustituta, una joven que ha sacrificado todo para salvar Camelot. Para mantener a Arturo a salvo, Ginebra debe abrirse camino en una corte donde los antiguos residentes, incluida la misma familia de Arturo, quieren que las cosas continúen siendo como siempre, y los nuevos, aquellos atraídos por el sueño de Camelot, luchan por una vida mejor. Y siempre, en el corazón verde del bosque y las negras profundidades de los lagos, la magia espera al acecho para reconquistar el reino. Justas mortales, falsos caballeros y romances prohibidos no pueden compararse con la amenaza más grande: la joven de largo pelo negro que cabalga a través de la foresta oscura hacia Arturo. Porque cuando toda su existencia es una mentira, no es posible confiar ni siquiera en uno mismo. «Una rara y envidiable mezcla de prosa impecable, suspenso apasionante, escenarios exuberantes y personajes complejos y fáciles de querer.

"Fascinating. . . . Kiersten White has taken the best parts of the Arthurian legend and made them all her own."--Renée Ahdieh, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Wrath and the Dawn series. A new fantasy series set in the world of Camelot that bestselling author Christina Lauren calls "brilliant," reimagining the Arthurian legend . . . where nothing is as magical and terrifying as a girl.

Lada Dracul não tem aliados. Nem trono. Tudo o que Lada tem é o que sempre teve: ela mesma. Ao falhar em obter o trono de Valáquia, Lada Dracul deseja punir a todos que ousarem cruzar seu caminho. Movida pela raiva, ela ataca com seus homens. Mas a força bruta não é suficiente para que Lada conquiste o que deseja. Lembrar-se de Mehmed, no entanto, lhe traz algum conforto, mas não há tempo para isso. Ela escolheu deixá-lo antes que ele pudesse fazê-lo. Lada sabe que precisa de toda sutileza e habilidade de seu irmão mais novo, Radu. Porém, Mehmed o enviou para Constantinopla e pretende dominar cidade. Assim, o irmão de Lada ganhou o lugar indesejado de agente duplo nas linhas inimigas... Radu anseia pela confiança feroz da irmã, mas, pela primeira vez em toda a vida, rejeita Lada e seu inesperado apelo por ajuda. Atormentado pela lealdade aos Otomanos e a Mehmed, ele sabe que não deve nada à irmã. Mas, se Lada morrer, jamais perdoará a si mesmo. E, se falhar em Constantinopla, Mehmed irá perdoá-lo? Civilizações desmoronam e os irmãos Dracul precisam decidir: o que irão sacrificar para cumprir seu destino? Nesta deslumbrante continuação da Saga da Conquistadora, impérios serão derrubados, tronos serão conquistados... e almas se perderão.

Ninguém espera que uma princesa seja brutal. Lada Dragwyla e o irmão mais novo, Radu, foram arrancados de seu lar em Valáquia e abandonados pelo pai – o famigerado Vlad Dracul – para crescer na corte otomana. Desde então, Lada aprendeu que a chave para a sobrevivência é não seguir as regras. E, com uma espada invisível ameaçando os irmãos a cada passo, eles são obrigados a agir como peças de um jogo: a mesma linhagem que os torna nobres também os torna alvo. Lada despreza os otomanos. Em silêncio, planeja o retorno a Valáquia para reclamar aquilo que é seu. Radu, por outro lado, que apenas se sentir seguro, seja onde for. E quando eles conhecem Mehmed, o audacioso e solitário filho do sultão, Radu acredita ter encontrado uma amizade verdadeira – e Lada vislumbra alguém que, por fim, parece merecedor de sua devoção. Mas Mehmed é herdeiro do mesmo império contra o qual Lada jurou vingança – e que Radu tomou como lar. Juntos, Lada, Radu e Mehmed formam um tóxico e inebriante triângulo que tensiona ao limite os laços do amor e da lealdade. Sombrio e devastador, este é o primeiro livro da mais nova série de Kiersten White. Cabeças vão rolar, corpos serão empalados... e corações serão partidos.

The highly anticipated, mind-blowing New York Times bestselling sequel to Kiersten White’s New York Times bestseller, AND I DARKEN—the series that reads like HBO’s Game of Thrones . . . if it were set in the Ottoman Empire. A SISTER FILLED WITH RAGE Lada Dracul has no allies. No crown. All she has is what she’s always had: herself. After failing to secure the Wallachian throne, Lada is out to punish anyone who dares cross her. She storms the countryside with her men, but brute force isn’t getting Lada what she wants. And thinking of Mehmed, the defiant Ottoman sultan, brings little comfort to her thorny heart. There’s no time to wonder whether he still thinks about her, even loves her. She left him before he could leave her. HER BROTHER CAUGHT IN THE CROSSHAIRS Lada needs the support of her diplomatic younger brother, Radu. But Mehmed has sent him to Constantinople—and it’s no diplomatic mission. Mehmed wants control of the city, and Radu has earned an unwanted place as a double-crossing spy behind enemy lines. And for the first time in his life, when Lada asks him for help, he refuses . . . leading his sister to make the darkest of choices. THE ULTIMATE POWER PLAY Torn between loyalties to faith, to the Ottomans, and to Mehmed, Radu knows he owes Lada nothing. If she dies, he could never forgive himself—but if he fails in Constantinople, would Mehmed ever forgive him? As nations fall around them, the Dracul siblings must decide: what will they sacrifice to fulfill their destinies? Empires will topple, thrones will be won . . . and souls will be lost.
