Breathtakingly frightening and hugely entertaining. . .a knockout debut. Ryan Lockwood is a talent to watch!" --Tripp Whetsell, NY Daily News

In the bestselling tradition of Jaws, from the depths of the sea comes a new kind of terror.
In all his years as a professional diver, Will Sturman has never encountered a killing machine more ferocious than the great white shark or as deadly as the piranha. Now, off the coast of California, something is rising from the deep--and multiplying. Voracious, unstoppable, and migrating north, an ungodly life form trailed by a gruesome wake of corpses. With the help of the brilliant and beautiful oceanographer Valerie Martell, Will finds himself in a race against time to stop the slaughter--by a predator capable of devastating the world's oceans.

SOMETIMES WHEN THE NIGHTMARE ENDS - THE TERROR IS ONLY JUST BEGINNING

For Hannah Shapiro, a beautiful young American student, this particular nightmare began eight years ago in Los Angeles, when Jack Morgan, owner of Private - the world's most exclusive detective agency - saved her from a horrific death. She has fled her country, but can't flee her past. The terror has followed her to London, and now it is down to former Royal Military Police Sergeant Dan Carter, head of Private London, to save her all over again.
In central London, young women are being abducted off the street. When the bodies are found, some days later, they have been mutilated in a particularly mysterious way. Dan Carter's ex-wife, DI Kirsty Webb, is involved in the investigation and it looks likely that the two cases are gruesomely linked.
Dan Carter draws on the whole resources of Private International in a desperate race against the odds. But the clock is ticking... Private may be the largest and most technologically advanced detection agency in the world, but the only thing they don't have is the one thing they need - time.
James Patterson's white-knuckle rollercoaster has just reached London. Buckle up, it's one hell of a ride! Un autre excellent Patterson -  page turner

Heureuse Fête de Saint-Valentin

Justin and Libby Denbe have the kind of life that looks good in the pages of a glossy magazine. A beautiful fifteen-year old daughter, Ashlyn. A gorgeous brownstone on a tree-lined street in Boston’s elite Back Bay neighborhood. A great marriage, admired by friends and family.  A perfect life.This is what I know:  Pain has a flavor…
When investigator Tessa Leoni arrives at the crime scene in the Denbes’ home, she finds scuff marks on the floor and Taser confetti in the foyer.  The family appears to have been abducted, with only a pile of their most personal possessions remaining behind.  No witnesses, no ransom demands, no motive.  Just an entire family, vanished without a trace.
This is what I fear:  The worst is yet to come…
Tessa knows better than anyone that even the most perfect façades can hide the darkest secrets.  Now she must race against the clock to uncover the Denbes’ innermost dealings, a complex tangle of friendships and betrayal, big business and small sacrifices.  Who would want to kidnap such a perfect little family?  And how far would such a person be willing to go?
This is the truth:  Love, safety, family …it is all touch and go. (Excellent; page turner)

Now the proud-ish owner of the ugly duckling of the trio, she plans to open her own pediatric office on the first floor, just as soon as her hunky contractor completes the work.

Lindsay Boxer is pregnant at last! But her work doesn't slow for a second. When millionaire Chaz Smith is mercilessly gunned down, she discovers that the murder weapon is linked to the deaths of four of San Francisco's most untouchable criminals. And it was taken from her own department's evidence locker. Anyone could be the killer - even her closest friends.
Lindsay is called next to the most bizarre crime scene she's ever witnessed: two bodiless heads elaborately displayed in the garden of a world-famous actor. Another head is unearthed in the garden, and Lindsay realises that the ground could hide hundreds of victims.
A reporter launches a series of malicious articles about the cases and Lindsay's personal life is laid bare. But this time she has no one to turn to - especially not Joe.

 crèpes jambon et fromage et pour dessert pralines et crème glacée .
Kissimmee, Fl.  :  26.C / retour de Suzanne à Mtl   vers 17h30

Un virevoltant[1] ou tumbleweed (de l'anglais, littéralement « l'herbe qui tourne ») est, chez certaines plantes poussant dans les déserts du nord des États-Unis, la partie hors du sol qui, une fois mûre et sèche, se sépare de la racine. L'ensemble de tiges ramifiées, de forme approximativement sphérique, peut alors se mettre à rouler au gré du vent.
À l'automne, la plante formant le virevoltant atteint sa taille maximale (entre 30 cm et quelques mètres) et se dessèche. Elle casse alors au niveau de la racine et peut se mettre à rouler. Le mécanisme est utile à la reproduction : en roulant, certaines espèces répandent environ 250 000 graines de semence. Cette boule errante est typique des paysages arides, et bien connue dans les westerns. (Wikipedia)

Le saviez-vous?

Le 2 février est le jour de la marmotte. Pourtant, il y a maintenant 4 marmottes en Amérique du Nord : Phil en Pennsylvanie, Willie en Ontario, Sam en Nouvelle-Écosse et, depuis 2010, Fred, de Val d'Espoir au Québec.

Au Canada, la marmotte ontarienne Wiarton Willie est d'accord avec Phil. Mais la néo-écossaise Shubenacadie Sam a prédit un printemps hâtif, ne voyant pas son ombre, tout comme sa collègue de Val-d'Espoir, en Gaspésie, Fred.

.Peu après 7 h samedi matin, à Val-d'Espoir en Gaspésie, Fred, la marmotte officielle du Québec a confirmé ce que tous redoutaient : l'hiver durera encore six semaines!

Au Canada, la marmotte Shubenacadie Sam, en Nouvelle-Écosse, a différé d'opinion. Elle a prédit un printemps hâtif, ne voyant pas son ombre.
