The Marsh King's Daughter
Summary
Praised by Lee Child and Karin Slaughter, and sure to thrill fans of The Girl on the Train and The Widow, The Marsh King's Daughter is mesmerizing psychological suspense, the story of a woman who must risk everything to hunt down the dangerous man who shaped her past and threatens to steal her future: her father. At last, Helena Pelletier has the life she deserves. A loving husband, two beautiful daughters, a business that fills her days. Then she catches an emergency news announcement and realizes she was a fool to think she could ever leave her worst days behind her. Helena has a secret: she is the product of an abduction. Her mother was kidnapped as a teenager by her father and kept in a remote cabin in the marshlands of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. No electricity, no heat, no running water, not a single human beyond the three of them. Helena, born two years after the abduction, loved her home in nature - fishing, tracking, hunting. And despite her father's odd temperament and sometimes brutal behavior, she loved him, too...until she learned precisely how savage a person he could be. More than 20 years later, she has buried her past so soundly that even her husband doesn't know the truth. But now her father has killed two guards, escaped from prison, and disappeared into the marshland he knows better than anyone else in the world. The police commence a manhunt, but Helena knows they don't stand a chance. Knows that only one person has the skills to find the survivalist the world calls the Marsh King - because only one person was ever trained by him: his daughter.

Freezing Point
Summary
Salvation and annihilation meet at one degree. One man's dream of providing clean drinking water for millions, tapped from the polar ice, sparks a conflict of humanity, science, big business, and environmental extremism. But no one can foresee the true danger hidden deep within the ice, an enemy more deadly than any could imagine, and an apocalyptic horror mankind may not survive.

Dyndkongens datter
Summary
Helena elskede sin far og den store, vide natur, der omgav deres bjælkehus. Han lærte hende alt om at overleve. At jage og bevæge sig hurtigt og lydløst gennem Michigans sumpede marskland. Det var alt, hun kendte til, indtil hun som 12-årig opdagede sandheden om ham: At han havde kidnappet hendes mor som teenager og holdt hende fanget siden da. At hun var datter af et monster. I femten år har Dyndkongen, som pressen kaldte ham, siddet bag lås og slå. Da Helena hører om hans flugt fra fængslet, tager hun sagen i egen hånd. Hun alene ved, hvor han gemmer sig, og hun må bruge alt, hvad hun lærte som barn for at fange sin far. Undervejs går det op for hende, at han ikke kun er på flugt - han er også på jagt. Karen Dionne er en erfaren skribent og forfatter og medlem af International Thriller Writers. Hun har udgivet flere bøger, "Dyndkongens datter" er første bog på dansk. Hun bor med sin mand i Detroit.

The Wicked Sister
Summary
She thought she'd buried her past. But what if it's been hunting her this whole time? From the best-selling and award-winning author of The Marsh King's Daughter comes a startling novel of psychological suspense as two generations of sisters try to unravel their tangled relationships between nature and nurture, guilt and betrayal, love and evil. You have been cut off from society for 15 years, shut away in a mental hospital in self-imposed exile as punishment for the terrible thing you did when you were a child. But what if nothing about your past is as it seems? And if you didn't accidentally shoot and kill your mother, then whoever did is still out there. Waiting for you. For a decade and a half, Rachel Cunningham has chosen to lock herself away in a psychiatric facility, tortured by gaps in her memory and the certainty that she is responsible for her parents' deaths. But when she learns new details about their murders, Rachel returns, in a quest for answers, to the place where she once felt safest: her family's sprawling log cabin in the remote forests of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. As Rachel begins to uncover what really happened on the day her parents were murdered, she learns - as her mother did years earlier - that home can be a place of unspeakable evil and that the bond she shares with her sister might be the most poisonous of all.
