1) Gone by Jonathan Kellerman (Alex Delaware #20)
"It’s a story tailor-made for the nightly news: Dylan Meserve and Michaela Brand, young lovers and fellow acting students, are found in the remote mountains of Malibu -battered and terrified after a harrowing ordeal at the hands of a sadistic abductor.
But doubts arise about the couple’s story, and as forensic details unfold, the abduction is exposed as a hoax.
Michaela is examined by Alex Delaware, who is certain that there are hidden layers in this sordid psychodrama that he hasn’t been able to penetrate.
Nevertheless, the case is closed–only to be reopened when Michaela is murdered. When the police look for Dylan, they find that he’s gone. Is he the killer or a victim himself? Delaware and Sturgis unearth more questions than answers–including a host of eerily identical killings. What really happened to the couple? And what bizarre and brutal epidemic is infecting the city with terror, madness, and sudden, twisted death?"
2) The Apprentice by Tess Gerritsen (Rizzoli & Isles #2)
"It is a boiling hot Boston summer. Adding to the city’s woes is a series of shocking crimes, in which wealthy men are made to watch while their wives are brutalized. A sadistic demand that ends in abduction and death.
The pattern suggests serial killer Warren Hoyt, recently removed from the city’s streets. Detective Jane Rizzoli can only assume an acolyte is at large, a maniac basing his attacks on the twisted techniques of the madman he so admires. Forced to confront the killer who scarred her—literally and figuratively—she is determined to finally end Hoyt’s awful influence.
But Rizzoli isn’t counting on the government’s interest. Or on meeting Special Agent Gabriel Dean, who knows more than he will tell. Most of all, she isn’t counting on becoming a target herself . . .
