All the Dangerous Things – Stacy Willingham   Following up her instant New York Times bestseller, A Flicker in the Dark, Stacy Willingham delivers a totally gripping thriller about a desperate mother with a troubled past in All the Dangerous Things.  One year ago, Isabelle Drake's life changed forever: her toddler son, Mason, was taken out of his crib in the middle of the night while she and her husband were asleep in the next room. With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally.  Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn't slept in a year.  Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can't go on this way forever. In hopes of jarring loose a new witness or buried clue, she agrees to be interviewed by a true-crime podcaster—but his interest in Isabelle's past makes her nervous. His incessant questioning paired with her severe insomnia has brought up uncomfortable memories from her own childhood, making Isabelle start to doubt her recollection of the night of Mason's disappearance, as well as second-guess who she can trust... including herself. But she is determined to figure out the truth no matter where it leads.  Cold People – Tom Robb Smith  From the brilliant, bestselling author of Child 44 comes a suspenseful and fast-paced novel about an Antarctic colony of global apocalypse survivors seeking to reinvent civilization under the most extreme conditions imaginable.  The world has fallen. Without warning, a mysterious and omnipotent force has claimed the planet for their own. There are no negotiations, no demands, no reasons given for their actions. All they have is a message: humanity has thirty days to reach the one place on Earth where they will be allowed to exist…Antarctica.  Cold People follows the perilous journeys of a handful of those who endure the frantic exodus to the most extreme environment on the planet. But their goal is not merely to survive the present. Because as they cling to life on the ice, the remnants of their past swept away, they must also confront the urgent challenge: can they change and evolve rapidly enough to ensure humanity's future? Can they build a new society in the sub-zero cold?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don't forget to follow us on instagram @bestfriendsandtheirbooks  Google Book Synopsis: from debut author Stacy Willingham comes a masterfully done, lyrical thriller, certain to be the launch of an amazing career. A Flicker in the Dark is eerily compelling to the very last page. When Chloe Davis was twelve, six teenage girls went missing in her small Louisiana town. By the end of the summer, her own father had confessed to the crimes and was put away for life, leaving Chloe and the rest of her family to grapple with the truth and try to move forward while dealing with the aftermath. Now twenty years later, Chloe is a psychologist in Baton Rouge and getting ready for her wedding. While she finally has a fragile grasp on the happiness she's worked so hard to achieve, she sometimes feels as out of control of her own life as the troubled teens who are her patients. So when a local teenage girl goes missing, and then another, that terrifying summer comes crashing back. Is she paranoid, seeing parallels from her past that aren't actually there, or for the second time in her life, is Chloe about to unmask a killer?

No salgas de noche, nos decían nuestros padres cuando jugar queríamos. Pero de eso no se trata el episodio de esta semana, más bien es una historia con muchos giros al inicio que mareado te empiezas a sentir. Any no decidía que libro reseñar y Mixtega no fue de mucha ayuda en la elección. Sin embargo, se sorprendió del título que Any escogió.Imagina que descubres que tu padre ha sido condenado por una serie de asesinatos y que, estando él tras las rejas, suceden otros asesinatos relacionados con el mismo método. De eso trata esta novela de la autora Stacy Willingham.Chloe Davis solo tenía doce años cuando se encontraron evidencias que culpaban a su propio padre del asesinato de seis niñas del pueblo. Ya nunca más sería su protector, sino un asesino en serie. Desde ese momento, Chloe ha tenido que afrontar las consecuencias de los actos de aquel monstruo: el acoso y vandalismo de sus vecinos, la destrucción de su familia y su propia adicción a los ansiolíticos. Veinte años después ha logrado iniciar una nueva vida. Es psicóloga en BatonRouge y está organizando su boda. Todo marcha bien hasta que una adolescente es asesinada, y luego otra. Alguien está matando chicas del mismo modo que lo hacía su padre, y que ella las conoce. Su pasado la persigue y la historia, que creía enterrada, parece repetirse.Libro mencionado: Motel Discordia

Hello, the books mentioned in this podcast are, Julia Quinn Bridgerton series "An Offer From a Gentleman".  Also, a thriller by Stacy Willingham titled "A Flicker in the Dark".  Thanks for listening. Elisa :)

Stacy Willingham has just published her debut novel, 'A Flicker in the Dark'. The novel follows Chloe Davis, whose world was torn apart at 12 years old when her father confessed to the murder of six teenage girls in their small Louisiana town. 20 years later, Chloe is a successful psychologist in Baton Rouge. But when a local girl disappears, she starts to unravel. The rights have been optioned by the actress Emma Stone, and it's currently being developed for HBO Max. We talk about how it feels to have so many writers dreams seem to be coming true. Stacy worked full-time in marketing and copywriting before publishing novels and we discuss how writing snappy slogans has affected the way she tells stories. You can hear about her specifically designed writing space, also why she moves around for the second draft, and how other authors inspire what she writes.You can support the show at patreon.com/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

An edge-of-your-seat tale of suspense.

By the end of the summer, her own father had confessed to the crimes and was put away for life, leaving Chloe and the rest of her family to grapple with the truth and try to move forward while dealing with the aftermath. But twenty years later, a string of new disappearances brings back old memories for Chloe that she'd rather not face, jeopardizing the peace she's worked so hard to build for herself.
