In Cameron’s Tom Clancy Command and Control, a coup erupts when President Jack Ryan flies to Colombia to support its embattled president, and soon the Russians are taking advantage by planning to assassinate Ryan. Asked to represent a woman convicted of killing her husband, a sheriff’s deputy, defense attorney Mickey Haller calls on retired LAPD Detective Harry Bosch for help in Connelly’s Resurrection Walk (750,000-copy first printing). Following a particularly bloody Halloween, Cornwell’s Kay Scarpetta investigates not one Unnatural Death but two, and the couple involved were about to be busted for cybercrimes (400,000-copy first printing). Author of Clive Cussler’s The Devil’s Seam and coauthor of eight previous Dirk Pitt adventures, Cussler returns for more adventure with Clive Cussler The Corsican Shadow. In Deaver’s The Watchmaker’s Hand, Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs get busy after a deadly crane collapse in New York City; a political group claims responsibility and threatens further sabotage if their demands go unmet. In The Girl in the Vault, from long-standing Patterson coauthor Ledwidge, Wall Street intern Faye Walker’s dreams come crashing down after a nasty betrayal, but she comes up with a pretty fierce backup plan (50,000-copy first printing). Having won the lottery, childhood sweethearts Nicole and Tom live luxuriously in a custom-built Glass Barn on the grounds of a Gloucestershire Manor House, and all’s well until Tom is found floating dead in the pool; following the New York Times best-selling Macmillan’s The Long Weekend (100,00-copy first printing). When a plane crashes on a DC runway, brought down by a remote-controlled Vietnam War–era machine gun, Dr. Alex Cross and Det. John Sampson are called on to help prevent more violence in Patterson’s Cross Out (500,000-copy first printing). Ignored by CIA high-ups when she warns them about the possible assassination of a U.S. senator, agent Amanda Cole is quickly asked to investigate when the killing actually takes place in Pitoniak’s The Helsinki Affair; what’s worse, she finds evidence that her agent father might be implicated. Forsaking her New York Times best-selling paranormal romance series to write a third thriller, Singh convenes seven friends in a rundown house with expectations of a confession—because There Should Have Been Eight.
