How he got into electronic music, partying, drugs, festivals... How he got into dealing because the Tories slit his mum’s throat. How he earned more money than he could have ever imagined. How he lied to everyone. How he got out of control.
And he asks himself, Was it all worth it?
Of course it fucking was.

Shadow Ballet- Betrayal
Shadow Ballet- Betrayal Izabell Key
"I'm trapped. They want my blood. They want my head.
I feel a rat walking on my corpse. The blood on my skin… I can smell the soil. There is a song in my ears disturbing with insolence the silence of the forest. It is not your beautiful voice. I want to cover my ears… but I can not move."
Jerry opens his eyes in a cell, accused of the murder of the most feared gangster in Atlantic City: His dad.
On his way to jail, Jerry bursts out for vengeance, but whoever set him up placed a large bounty on his head. Head hunters, police and detectives on the payroll are after him. It is not very easy to survive the night. So, he does not. Jerry gets shot.
A beautiful prostitute, Lin, finds Jerry and shelters him. However, she has no idea who Jerry is and what kind of trouble he brings.

Shadow Ballet- Betrayal by Izabell Key. To me it seemed like a female revision of 'Sin City' (movie): Jerry, the son of a crime-boss gets hamstrung during the powerplays of organized crime, gets shot, and left for dead. But an angel of the night, a prostitute named Lin, has mercy on Mr. Amnesia, and grants him shelter. That is a daring recipe, full of potential and social, or amorous, intricacies! Izabell Key challenges our expectations, keeps us guessing about a happy end, or a downward spiral, and chose a cover style reminding of noir-classics, or modern noir sub-genres.

Kindred Intentions
Kindred Intentions Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli
24 hours. 2 people. 1 target.
It was 10 a.m. when undercover agent Amelia Jennings arrived at the law firm Goldberg & Associates for a job interview. Her mission was to investigate a series of murders involving some well-known lawyers in the City. Her target, an elusive hired killer who had been of interest to the police for months.
But her plan is doomed to fall apart before it even starts.
In less than twenty-four hours Amelia will be the prey in a man hunt and her destiny will become entwined with Mike Connor’s.
Their intentions, apparently similar, may prove to be opposite, but the affinity binding them goes beyond what they think they know about each other.
One day to survive. One day to let go of the past.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.
