Lorenzo Carcaterra Chasers Pbk published May 2007 by Simon Schuster at £11.99 ISBN: 0743285387


This is the return of the Apaches - a cadre of controversial, adrenaline-junkie former NYPD cops, first introduced in Lorenzo Carcaterra's previous novel APACHES. In this sequel, set three years after the events in the first novel, the surviving members of the team reunite to continue their battle against crime. Their new adventure starts with the machine-gun murder of innocent bystanders in a Manhattan restaurant. This incident ultimately propels our heroes into an investigation of a Colombian drug cartel responsible for the selling and distribution of millions of kilos of cocaine. Joining the group in this mission are three new Apaches: Ash, a wounded female Hispanic cop with a speciality in arson investigations; Quincy, an HIV-positive recruit who is a specialist in forensics; and Bruno, a retired police dog who is a gold-shield detective, highly decorated for his skills at sniffing out illegal drugs. It's the Apaches versus the drug lords in an all-out New York City street war.

Lorenzo Carcaterra is the author of the bestselling Sleepers, Apaches, Gangster and Paradise City. He has written scripts for film and television and is currently at work on his next novel. He lives in New York.

John Sandford Invisible Prey (Prey 18) Published June 2007 by Simon Schuster at £18.99 ISBN: 0743276248

In the richest neighbourhood of Minneapolis, two elderly women lie murdered in their home, beaten to death with a metal pipe, the rooms ransacked, only small items stolen. It's clearly a random break-in by someone looking for money to buy drugs. But as he looks more closely, Davenport begins to wonder if the items are actually so small or the victims so random, if there might not be some invisible agenda at work here. Gradually, a pattern begins to emerge - and it will lead Davenport to somewhere he never expected. Which is too bad, because the killers - and there is more than one of them - the killers are expecting him.
