NIGHT PREY

When he needed a woman, he captured one, played with her for a while, then disposed of her. His victims were always so disappointing. They would never perform that final act they knew would please him.
He would have them both-and spare only one.
She would be his ultimate fantasy...

Roberta Paxton had a pleasant,challenging job, a man who loved her, and a host of good friends, but anxiety gnawed at her. At the back of her mind, at the edge of her vision, something was threatening her...something or someone. She tried to talk about it, but nobody wanted to listen, not even her thirteen-year-old sister, Tobie. Roberta had had these premonitions before. Tobie reminded her. She was just being paranoid.

But there was someone watching. Deep in the Tahoe forest, emerging only to stalk his prey, to watch and listen, to plot his final move, a vicious killer waited. Each glimpse of Roberta fired his need, but still he waited.

Until he saw Tobie...

NIGHT PASSAGE

"COME HOME AND HELP ME,"
BEGGED A FRIEND.

In the Nevada mining town of Eagletown, where the
bodies and their shocking secrets are buried deeper
than the precious gold, a benevolent woman named
Caroline Holt once took a lonely teenager named
Roni Mayfield under her wing. Now Caroline is
dead-the victim of a bloody, shattering act of
voilence. The police call it suicide. Roni calls it
time to come home.
"COME HOME AND DIE,"
INVITES A KILLER.

Roni knew Caroline. She knows Eageltown. And, as an investigation reporter, she knows murder. To avenge her dead friend and mentor, she will hunt down justice. To protect Caroline's traunmatized young son, she will risk her own life. And with James Glazer, her only ally in a town that's slowly rotting from within, she will wage war against the killer who stalks her through the dark, endless tunnels of night...

NIGHT STALKER

Things were looking up for Alexandra Carison. She had finally gotten her life back together again. She'd moved into a wonderful, secluded house on a mountainside, in Reno, her paintings were beginning to sell, and there was even a hint of romance on the horizon. Then things began to happen. Little things. Anonymous phone calls full of heavy breathing. A broken tree branch outside her bedroom window. Her cat, Blackie-gone without a trace. A moving shadow above the skylight. Surely it was all her imagination...Then one day she picked up the phone and therewas somebody there - somebody who knew her childhood nickname. In the background she could hear a scratchy record - an old song that brought dark memories out of the shadows. That night something woke Alexandra out of a sound sleep. This time, the heavy breathing wasn't coming from the telephone. Someone was in the house with her. And she was at his mercy.

NIGHT GAME

Sparks, Nevada. The exclusive King's Club
resort casino is a glittering playground for
gamblers with everything to gain...
and the hunting ground for a shadowy
killer with nothing left to lose. So far, the
odds are in his favor. Until casino owner
Jay King places his bets on a beautiful
private investigator...

Kasey Atwood is an expert at undercover
surveillance, and no stranger to this
dazzling world of high stakes and low
morals. Her attraction to the sensual,
enigmatic King is immediate-and
incendiary. As their love affair heats up,
she becomes a pawn in a danergously
seductive game of passion and revenge.
Then more innocent blood is shed, and
Kasey knows she can't afford to make
one false move. At rish is nothing less
than her heart-and her life...
