Описание: "Propulsive... Not only is the book difficult to put down, it's also an adroit exploration of the ethical quandaries of true-crime storytelling, particularly in podcasts."
--The New York Times Book Review

Elle Castillo once trained as a social worker, supporting young victims of violent crime. Now she hosts a popular true crime podcast that focuses on cold cases of missing and abducted children.

After four seasons of successfully solving these cases in Minnesota's Twin Cities, Elle decides to tackle her white whale: The Countdown Killer. Twenty years ago, TCK was terrorizing the community, kidnapping and ritualistically murdering three girls over seven days, each a year younger than the last. Then, after he took his eleven-year-old victim, the pattern--and the murders--abruptly stopped. No one has ever known why.

When Elle follows up on a listener tip only to discover the man's dead body, she feels at fault. Then, within days, a child is abducted--a young girl who seems to fit suspiciously into the TCK sequence halted decades before. While media and law enforcement long ago concluded that TCK had suicided, Elle has never believed TCK was dead. She had hoped her investigation would lay that suspicion to rest, but her podcast seems instead to be inciting new victims.

"A masterful, heart-pounding suspense that ushers in an astonishing new voice in crime fiction."
--Samantha M. Bailey, internationally bestselling author of Woman on the Edge

"A tale of obsession, dark histories, and one woman's quest to bring a terrifying killer to justice, GIRL, 11 is delivered with poise, style, and cunning - making it impossible to put down."
--Alex Segura, acclaimed author of Miami Midnight and Blackout

Описание: Action packed third and last novel in the series that includes Death by Design and Lost Art. High-schoolers Adam and Rachel Fuller are swept up in the chase to destroy a Tijuana, Mexico drug and kidnapping ring. In the process, the siblings immerse themselves in saving the world's oceans. They visit a haunting archeological site in ancient Mexico where they discover the rich cultural history of this complex land. Mr. Anthony Volpini, their science teacher, assists them with technical issues like which Chianti wine is to be preferred and how to identify cocaine in the science lab. Adam is finishing his senior year at Seaside High School in San Diego. He lands a summer job at Mexican-American Freightways, drug-proofing their fleet of trucks by applying science and technology. In the process, Adam is kidnapped and may not escape with his life during a 'night swim' to the bottom of the ocean. Rachel's persistence, artistic skills, theory of the crime and photographic memory bail Adam out and nail the hombres who wreak such havoc. An award winning parent and educator has this to say about Run for the Money: 'Run for the Money, part mystery and part adventure, follows Adam and Rachel Fuller as they outmaneuver their parents and the Mexican drug cartel. The author's quest for learning, passion for classic cars and boats, as well as his love of teenagers is clearly evident in this absorbing, fast paced adventure.
