    • "Une semaine à bord d'un yacht luxueux, à sillonner les eaux du Grand Nord avec seulement une poignée de passagers. Pour Laura Blacklock, journaliste, c'est l'occasion rêvée de s'éloigner de la capitale anglaise. D'ailleurs, le départ tient toutes ses promesses : le ciel est clair, la mer est calme et les invités de l'Aurora rivalisent de jovialité. Le champagne coule à flots, les conversations ne manquent pas de piquant et la cabine est un véritable paradis sur l'eau. Mais dès le premier soir, le vent tourne. Laura, réveillée en pleine nuit, voit une passagère être passée par dessus bord. ..." (Extrait du résumé de quatrième de couverture)

      A Witch in Love
    • From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of In a Dark, Dark Wood, The Woman in Cabin 10, and The Lying Game comes Ruth Ware’s highly anticipated fourth novel. On a day that begins like any other, Hal receives a mysterious letter bequeathing her a substantial inheritance. She realizes very quickly that the letter was sent to the wrong person—but also that the cold-reading skills she’s honed as a tarot card reader might help her claim the money. Soon, Hal finds herself at the funeral of the deceased…where it dawns on her that there is something very, very wrong about this strange situation and the inheritance at the center of it. Full of spellbinding menace and told in Ruth Ware’s signature suspenseful style, this is an unputdownable thriller from the Agatha Christie of our time.

      AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES and GLOBE AND MAIL BESTSELLER What should be a cozy and fun-filled weekend deep in the English countryside takes a sinister turn in Ruth Ware’s suspenseful, compulsive, and darkly twisted psychological thriller. Sometimes the only thing to fear…is yourself. Leonora (Lee to some, Nora to others) is a reclusive writer, but when an old friend unexpectedly invites her to a weekend away in an eerie glass house, she reluctantly agrees to make the trip. But a haunting realization creeps in to the party: they are not alone in the woods. Forty-eight hours later, Nora wakes up in a hospital bed with the knowledge that someone is dead. Wondering not “What happened?” but “What have I done?” she tries to piece together the events of the past weekend. In order to uncover secrets and reveal motives, Nora must revisit parts of herself that she’d rather leave buried where they belong: in the past. This gripping thriller will have readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.
