Join host Victoria Carthew as she speaks with bestselling author Riley Sager about his latest novel, “With a Vengence”.In 1942, six people destroyed Anna Matheson's family. Twelve years later, she's ready for retribution. Under false pretences, Anna has lured those responsible for her family's downfall onto a luxury train from Philadelphia to Chicago, an overnight journey of fourteen hours. Her goal? Confront the people who've wronged her, get them to confess their crimes, and deliver them into the hands of authorities waiting at the end of the line. Justice will at last be served. But Anna's plan is quickly derailed by the murder of one of the passengers. As the train barrels through the night, it becomes clear that someone else on board is enacting their own form of revenge—and that they won't stop until everyone else is dead. With time running out before the train reaches its destination, Anna is forced to hunt the killer in their midst while protecting the people she hates the most. To destroy her enemies, she must first save them—even though it means putting her own life at risk. Purchase “With a Vengeance” from your local QBD Books store or online today: https://www.qbd.com.au/with-a-vengeance/riley-sager/9781399742085/ Follow along with QBD Books here: QBD Books on Facebook: www.facebook.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on Instagram: www.instagram.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@qbdbooksaustralia

Vivi's little sister, Alice, is flying from Brisbane with her sixteen-year-old twins in tow. Ex-colleague Pete and his new husband Nick are coming from Boston, and old friend Caroline is driving from Turin. Every one of them is hiding a shameful secret. Vivi's plans for a relaxing holiday surrounded by those closest to her are soon overshadowed by an anonymous blackmail threat, and she begins to wonder if someone she thought she could trust might just as easily betray her. Amid a suffocating heatwave, the holiday ignites an explosive cocktail of obsession, jealousy and greed. Before the week is over, secrets will be exposed and the gathering will turn deadly, leaving one victim, a handful of suspects, and a murderer in their midst.Purchase “The Palazzo” from your local QBD Books store or online today: https://www.qbd.com.au/the-palazzo-a-thrilling-destination-murder-mystery-from-the-internationally-bestselling-author-of-the-silk-house-and-the-botanists/kayte-nunn/9781460767047/ Follow along with QBD Books here: QBD Books on Facebook: www.facebook.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on Instagram: www.instagram.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@qbdbooksaustralia

Over their summer break, her mother plans to finish her novel, her father wants to grill and watch cricket, and her fifteen-year-old sister hopes to catch the eye of a local lifeguard. With everyone around her distracted, she teams up with a new friend to solve a mystery that haunts this vacation community: they'll close the case of what happened to Charlotte, a child who was presumed drowned two years earlier. But things aren't quite as they seem, and as the children look for clues, they inadvertently dislodge information they wish they'd never uncovered. Are her parents happy together?

Join host Victoria Carthew as she speaks with actor and author Darcy Tindale about her latest novel, “Burning Mountain”.In April 2006, fifteen-year-old Oliver went hiking to the lookout on Burning Mountain - and vanished without trace. His four schoolmates were the last ones to see him on the trek, yet the teenagers were never able to explain his disappearance. Almost twenty years later, Detective Rebecca Giles is called to bushland on nearby Mount Wingen. A skull has been dug up, reviving the mystery that has haunted the Upper Hunter area for years. Giles is convinced that they have finally found the missing boy, and that his four friends - all now in their mid-thirties - have always known much more than they revealed. But when she discusses the case with her father, retired Superintendent Benjamin Giles, another suspect is thrown into the mix. One that for Giles is uncomfortably close to home.Purchase “Burning Mountain” at your local QBD Books store or online today: https://www.qbd.com.au/burning-mountain/darcy-tindale/9781761049774/Follow along with QBD Books here: QBD Books on Facebook: www.facebook.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on Instagram: www.instagram.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@qbdbooksaustralia

Join Victoria Carthew as she speaks with internationally bestselling author Dervla McTiernan about her highly-anticipated new novel in the Cormac Reilly series, “The Unquiet Grave”.For years the boglands of Northern Europe have given up bodies of the long-deceased. Bodies that are thousands of years old, uncannily preserved. Bodies with strange injuries that suggest ritual torture and human sacrifice.When a corpse is found in a bog in Galway, Cormac Reilly assumes the find is historical. But closer examination reveals a more recent story. The dead man is Thaddeus Grey, a local secondary school principal who disappeared two years prior.There's nothing in Grey's past that would explain why he was murdered, or why his body was mutilated in a ritual manner. Two more bodies are found. Press attention is intense. Is there a serial killer at work in Ireland? Has Cormac been on the wrong trail? Purchase “The Unquiet Grave” from your local QBD Books store or online today: https://www.qbd.com.au/the-unquiet-grave/dervla-mctiernan/9781460766828/ Follow along with QBD Books here: QBD Books on Facebook: www.facebook.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on Instagram: www.instagram.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@qbdbooksaustralia

We'll hear him as an archeologist who may have found a lost treasure in “Door of Gold” (originally aired on CBS on February 10, 1957) and as a mental patient who escapes from the hospital with revenge on his mind in “Madman of Manhattan” (originally aired on CBS on March 8, 1959). Plus, he plays detective in “No Time for Murder” from Crime Club (originally aired on Mutual on September 25, 1947).

Join host Victoria Carthew as she speaks with crime fiction author S.R. White on his latest novel, “Pacific Heights”.In the courtyard of the Pacific Heights building, a local waitress is found dead. Five apartments overlook the murder scene. Five people witnessed a crime take place. Finding the killer should be simple. Except none of the witnesses' stories match. They all saw something - from a different angle, at a different time. None of them saw everything. Anyone could be the killer. Detectives Carl "Bluey" Blueson and Lachlan Dyson, each with their own careers in peril, must solve what others assume is a straightforward case. But to unmask a killer they must unpick a complex puzzle - where the motivations of the witnesses are as mystifying as the crime itself. How can you solve a crime if anyone could be lying?Purchase “Pacific Heights” from your local QBD Books store or online today: https://www.qbd.com.au/pacific-heights/s-r-white/9781035426546/ Follow along with QBD Books here: QBD Books on Facebook: www.facebook.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on Instagram: www.instagram.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@qbdbooksaustralia

QBD's host Victoria Carthew speaks with broadcaster and author Jane Caro about her latest suspenseful thriller, “Lyrebird”.Twenty years ago, ornithology student Jessica Weston filmed a lyrebird mimicking the dying screams of a woman in the Barrington Tops National Park. Terrified, she took her recordings to the Maitland police to report a murder. Despite support from newly minted detective, Megan Blaxland, no one was reported missing in the area and no body found, so Jessica's claims were mocked and dismissed. Twenty years later, a body is unearthed. Exactly where Jessica said it would be. Jessica and Megan are appalled that the dead woman, whose last moments were heard by only a lyrebird and her killer, has been ignored and forgotten for so long. They both feel they have let the victim down, and are determined to find the killer, whatever it takes. What they do not realise is it is not just their own lives that may be in danger.Purchase “Lyrebird” from your local QBD Books store or online today: https://www.qbd.com.au/lyrebird/jane-caro/9781761471537/ Follow along with QBD Books here: QBD Books on Facebook: www.facebook.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on Instagram: www.instagram.com/qbdbooks QBD Books on TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@qbdbooksaustralia

He's busy – caring for his dad, recovering from a broken heart and eating himself into a bigger pair of pants. Then the police turn up. Is Claire's disappearance connected with the body found next door thirteen years ago? Does Jamie's father, now grappling with dementia, know more about these events than he should? And then there's Tess, equal parts mysterious and charming, who just moved in at number thirty-five... As Jamie asks around, an unsettling picture begins to form.

Our heroes this week encounter hypnosis and meet those who have fallen under its spell and who have used it to try and conceal their crimes. First, Boston Blackie suspects a woman's murder confession was driven by hypnosis rather than guilt. Then, a woman is hypnotized to help solve a murder in "Cupid Can Be Deadly" from Crime Club (originally aired on Mutual on October 16, 1947). In "The Voice of Darkness," Chandu the Magician investigates a bombing where the eyewitness was hypnotized into losing her memory (originally aired on Mutual on April 14, 1949). And finally, Bob Bailey stars as George Valentine in "Eleven O'Clock" from Let George Do It, where a woman's recent odd behavior may be tied to the experiments of a psychology professor (originally aired on Mutual on July 17, 1950).
