The Black Book, by James Patterson & David Ellis. The son of Chicago's chief of detectives, whose twin sister is also on
the force, Billy Harney plays it by the book. Alongside Detective Kate Fenton,
Billy's tempestuous, adrenaline-junkie partner, there's nothing he
wouldn't sacrifice for his job. Enter Amy Lentini, a hard-charging
assistant state's attorney hell-bent on making a name for herself-who
suspects Billy isn't the cop he claims to be.
A horrifying murder leads investigators to an unexpected address-an
exclusive brothel that caters to Chicago's most powerful citizens.
There's plenty of incriminating evidence on the scene-but what matters
most is what's missing: the madam's black book. Now shock waves are
rippling through the city's elite, and everyone who is anyone is desperate to find it. The city has never been more dangerous.

The Cutthroat, by Clive Cussler & Justin Scott. The year is 1911. Chief Investigator Isaac Bell of the Van Dorn
Detective Agency has had many extraordinary cases before. But none quite
like this. Hired to find a young woman named Anna Pape
who ran away from home to become an actress, Bell gets a shock when her
murdered body turns up instead. Vowing to bring the killer to justice,
he begins a manhunt which leads him into increasingly more alarming
territory. Anna Pape was not alone in her fate—petite young blond women
like Anna are being murdered in cities across America. If Bell is right about his fears, then he is on the trail of one of the greatest monsters of his time.
The Devil’s Triangle, by Catherine Coulter & J.T.
Ellison. FBI Special Agents Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine are the
government’s Covert Eyes—leading a top-notch handpicked team of agents
to tackle crimes and criminals both international and deadly. But their
first case threatens their fledgling team when the Fox calls from Venice
asking for help. Kitsune has stolen an incredible artifact from
the Topkapi Museum in Istanbul, and now the client wants her dead. She
has a warning for Nick and Mike: she’s overheard talk that a devastating
Gobi desert sandstorm that’s killed thousands in Beijing isn’t a
natural phenomenon, rather is produced by man. The Covert Eyes team
heads to Venice, Italy, to find out the truth.
