The October List by Jeffrey Deaver
Gabriela waits desperately for news of her abducted daughter.
At last, the door opens.
But it's not the negotiators. It's not the FBI.
It's the kidnapper.
And he has a gun.
How did it come to this?
Two
days ago, Gabriela's life was normal. Then, out of the blue, she gets
word that her six-year-old daughter has been taken. She's given an
ultimatum: pay half a million dollars and find a mysterious document
known as the "October List" within 30 hours, or she'll never see her
child again.
A mind-bending novel with twists and turns that
unfold from its dramatic climax back to its surprising beginning, THE
OCTOBER LIST is Jeffery Deaver at his masterful, inventive best.

White Fire by Douglas Preston
Pendergast Series Book # 13
Past and present collide in Preston and Child's most thrilling novel ever...WHITE FIRE.
Special
Agent Pendergast arrives at an exclusive Colorado ski resort to rescue
his protégée, Corrie Swanson, from serious trouble with the law. His
sudden appearance coincides with the first attack of a murderous
arsonist who--with brutal precision--begins burning down
multimillion-dollar mansions with the families locked inside. After
springing Corrie from jail, Pendergast learns she made a discovery while
examining the bones of several miners who were killed 150 years earlier
by a rogue grizzly bear. Her finding is so astonishing that it, even
more than the arsonist, threatens the resort's very existence.
Drawn
deeper into the investigation, Pendergast uncovers a mysterious
connection between the dead miners and a fabled, long-lost Sherlock
Holmes story--one that might just offer the key to the modern day
killings as well.
Now, with the ski resort snowed in and under
savage attack--and Corrie's life suddenly in grave danger--Pendergast
must solve the enigma of the past before the town of the present goes up
in flames.
