The stranger lives just long enough to murmur a single baffling question before he dies, and that question lodges itself in Bobby's mind. When an inquest swiftly closes the matter as an accident, Bobby is inclined to let it rest, until an attempt is made on his own life and the loose threads refuse to lie flat. Joined by his spirited childhood friend Lady Frances Derwent, known to everyone as Frankie, he sets out to make sense of the dying words and the curious people who seem connected to them. The two adopt disguises, stage a motor accident to gain entry to a suspicious household, and trade quick banter as the stakes climb from idle curiosity toward genuine peril. Wit and recklessness carry them where caution would not, and their amateur sleuthing brushes against forces far more dangerous than either anticipated. Working without a famous detective to guide them, Bobby and Frankie must rely on nerve, luck, and each other. Set among country houses, a nursing home, and the cliffs of the Welsh coast, the story moves at a brisk pace, balancing genuine menace with a light, conversational charm and a puzzle that keeps circling back to one teasing question.",1935,"en","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz59hvmkkrx7fm91bjva5br.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kjt76xrh3ny40g7t50p7r0gj.png?v=9a1898533b","L6D9q[00T}E2N4ocoMWB0;WE]yjY",0,252,286,"complete",false,true,[21],{"id":22,"slug":23,"name":24,"role":25,"bio":26},"01kjq7prh50ekz5eybgdhd9q51","agatha-christie-t6d5","Agatha Christie","author","Dame Agatha Christie (1890-1976) is the best-selling novelist of all time and the writer the world calls the \"Queen of Crime.\" Born Agatha Miller in Torquay, Devon, she came to fiction on a dare: her sister Madge bet she could not write a convincing detective story, and the result, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, introduced the Belgian detective Hercule Poirot.

Beside each body lies a copy of the ABC Railway Guide, opened to the page of the town where the victim died. Before every killing, Hercule Poirot receives a typed, mocking letter signed only with the initials A.B.C., naming the next place and daring him to intervene in time. With his old friend Captain Hastings narrating events, Poirot works alongside Chief Inspector Japp and the sceptical young Inspector Crome, but the police are left chasing a murderer who appears to choose strangers at random and strike across half of England. As the toll mounts, the relatives of the dead band together, determined to help the detective who cannot seem to get ahead of the next letter. Poirot grows convinced that the apparent madness conceals a precise design, and that the answer lies not in where the killer will go next, but in why these particular names were chosen. Christie tests her detective against a new kind of adversary, building a methodical puzzle around the unsettling idea of murder without obvious motive, and pressing Poirot to read the mind behind the alphabet before the list runs out.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz5qnsg0ydjz60rfrbwn89x.jpg","L8G~I5E4M|P7~VSeRjjI+~TENbnS",1936,"4.50",194,[294,295],{"id":22,"slug":23,"name":24},{"id":296,"slug":297,"name":298},"01krp08npx911jr4wac88rp9hw","rajni-thindiath-zwx9","Rajni Thindiath",[300,304,305,306,307,311],{"id":301,"name":302,"slug":303,"is_fiction":19},5,"Thriller","thriller",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},{"id":308,"name":309,"slug":310,"is_fiction":19},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",{"id":45,"name":46,"slug":47,"is_fiction":19},[313],{"id":314,"slug":315,"name":316,"position":317,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kkwz9p4n93hgbfc311q4ap41","hercule-poirot-wiqp","Hercule Poirot","13.00",{"pace":277,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":319,"themes":323,"setting_period":7,"summary":326,"content_warnings":7},[320,321,322,279],"tense","intellectual","dark",[324,325,241,240],"secret-identity","morally-grey","A killer is working through the alphabet.

But now that Joy is grown and gone, life has gotten far too quiet.\n\nWith a little cajoling from Madame, the Blend's flamboyant elderly owner, Clare agrees to return to her old job, and right from the start she gets one heck of a jolt. On her first morning back as manager she unlocks the front door to find her beautiful young assistant manager, Anabelle, unconscious in the back of the store, coffee grounds strewn everywhere.\n\nAs Anabelle is rushed to the hospital, police arrive to investigate, but Detective Mike Quinn finds no sign of forced entry or foul play and deems it an accident.

The new bride, young, insecure, and nameless throughout the novel, becomes convinced she can never measure up to Rebecca's beauty, sophistication, and charm — until the truth about Rebecca's death, and about her marriage to Maxim, comes violently to light.\n\nDaphne du Maurier's Gothic masterpiece is a study in psychological suspense, jealousy, and the way the dead can dominate the living. Its famous opening line — \"Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again\" — has become one of the most recognized in English literature, and the novel remains a defining work of romantic suspense.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kjrg2sdnkj7w5mzsk1db6wbv.jpg","LAE1{qa001o}0Lt7~CRj%MJo4:wb",1938,410,[832],{"id":833,"slug":834,"name":835},"01kjrg2sfa7kncp4hgs8jsq3mf","daphne-du-maurier-esmc","Daphne du Maurier",[837,838,842,843,847,848,849,850],{"id":345,"name":346,"slug":347,"is_fiction":19},{"id":839,"name":840,"slug":841,"is_fiction":19},10,"Folklore","folklore",{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},{"id":844,"name":845,"slug":846,"is_fiction":19},47,"Gothic","gothic",{"id":187,"name":648,"slug":649,"is_fiction":19},{"id":436,"name":437,"slug":438,"is_fiction":19},{"id":644,"name":645,"slug":646,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":853,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":854,"themes":855,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"slow",[322,237],[],{"id":857,"slug":858,"title":859,"description":860,"primary_cover_url":861,"cover_blurhash":862,"first_publish_year":863,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":864,"authors":865,"genres":870,"series":880,"enrichment":881},"01kjq7xnxesvqebvgge8w7txss","the-complete-sherlock-holmes-fzbb","The Complete Sherlock Holmes","Step into the fog-laden streets of Victorian London with the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes and his loyal companion Dr. Watson.

Their honeymoon, however, is shadowed at every stop by Jacqueline de Bellefort, Linnet's former friend and Simon's discarded fiancee, who trails the couple from hotel to temple to riverboat with an intensity that curdles into menace. The other passengers carry their own grievances and secrets: a trustee whose accounts may not bear scrutiny, a kleptomaniac dowager and her companion, a fading novelist and her watchful daughter, a mother and son with reasons to stay close to the rich. When a shot rings out in the dark and one of the party is found dead in a locked cabin, Poirot, aided by the soldierly Colonel Race, must untangle a knot of jealousy, money, and old wounds. Everyone aboard had motive; few had opportunity; and the obvious answer is the one Poirot trusts least. Drawing on Christie's own voyages along the Nile, the novel sets a tightly constructed puzzle against the heat and grandeur of ancient Egypt, where the detective sifts every alibi until the truth surfaces.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kmdhggy0cwmc0kqavmr80kdb.jpg","LDM5{#$z05-m*w}?nnxW~T9vsqIp",1937,[926],{"id":22,"slug":23,"name":24},[928,929,930],{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":37,"name":38,"slug":39,"is_fiction":19},[932],{"id":314,"slug":315,"name":316,"position":933,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"18.00",{"pace":277,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":935,"themes":936,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[237,320,279],[937,240],"love-triangle",{"id":939,"slug":940,"title":941,"description":942,"primary_cover_url":943,"cover_blurhash":944,"first_publish_year":863,"community_rating_avg":478,"community_rating_count":181,"page_count":292,"authors":945,"genres":950,"series":964,"enrichment":973},"01kjrg45fwrr5cgryybervtmve","the-secret-of-the-old-clock-h2eb","The Secret of the Old Clock","When a wealthy old man passes away, his will mysteriously vanishes, leaving his relatives in a lurch.

Loosened by cocktails and a wound he can't stop pressing, Ted admits that his wife is cheating on him — and that, some nights, he thinks he could kill her for it. To his surprise, Lily doesn't flinch. She calmly agrees that some people simply deserve to die, and offers to help him do it.\n\nWhat starts as an abstract game between two strangers becomes a meticulous plan, and then something far more dangerous. Because Lily is not a bored socialite indulging a fantasy. She has killed before, she has her own reasons for everything she does, and the tidy scheme she and Ted are building has more moving parts — and more hidden players — than either of them will admit.\n\nA modern homage to Patricia Highsmith, Peter Swanson's The Kind Worth Killing is a coiled psychological thriller told through shifting, unreliable points of view. Every chapter recalibrates who is manipulating whom, building toward a game of murder in which trusting the wrong person is the only truly fatal mistake.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfjhddwa1yebkm9bhnc9tck.jpg","LH9aT,_L?t%L_M?v.7xtOukso$s:","3.86",320,[992],{"id":993,"slug":994,"name":995},"01kkfjhddrz67f4y79e301r8ey","peter-swanson-tbik","Peter Swanson",[997,998,999,1000,1001,1002],{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":301,"name":302,"slug":303,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":436,"name":437,"slug":438,"is_fiction":19},{"id":308,"name":309,"slug":310,"is_fiction":19},{"id":910,"name":911,"slug":912,"is_fiction":19},[1004],{"id":1005,"slug":1006,"name":1007,"position":275,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kkfjhdfa77fzhmx6sgxzkza2","henry-kimballlily-kintner-zm8g","Henry Kimball\u002FLily Kintner",{"pace":232,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":1009,"themes":1010,"setting_period":7,"summary":1013,"content_warnings":7},[322,320,237,585],[1011,241,325,1012,657],"unreliable-narrator","revenge","A chance airport-bar meeting turns lethal when Ted confesses he'd like his cheating wife dead — and the poised stranger beside him, Lily, offers to help.

Then, one evening, her husband Gabriel returns home late and Alicia shoots him five times in the face — and from that moment never speaks another word.\n\nHer refusal to explain, or even to talk, turns a domestic tragedy into a public sensation and hardens into an unsolvable mystery. Alicia is confined to the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London, where she paints and stays silent. Theo Faber, a criminal psychotherapist who has been fascinated by her case for years, engineers a job at the unit and sets out to reach her, convinced that if he can only get Alicia to speak, he can uncover the truth of that night.\n\nTold through Theo's obsessive investigation and Alicia's own private diary, Alex Michaelides's debut is a tautly plotted psychological thriller that draws on Greek tragedy and builds to one of the genre's most talked-about twists.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ksxn51w268j0at5kteg1gx1n.jpg","LXPPZCI:InRi_4xaV?V@S$ozahj[",19,338,[1156],{"id":1157,"slug":1158,"name":1159},"01kjq77dyksetajsedf6dp3qqw","alex-michaelides-vigb","Alex Michaelides",[1161,1162,1163,1164,1165],{"id":436,"name":437,"slug":438,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":301,"name":302,"slug":303,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":308,"name":309,"slug":310,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":232,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":1168,"themes":1169,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[322,237,320],[1011],{"id":1171,"slug":1172,"title":1173,"description":1174,"primary_cover_url":1175,"cover_blurhash":1176,"first_publish_year":1073,"community_rating_avg":291,"community_rating_count":1153,"page_count":1177,"authors":1178,"genres":1183,"series":1190,"enrichment":1194},"01kjq708p23t2ry31w7hm60a9b","a-good-girls-guide-to-murder-cdxc","A Good Girl's Guide to Murder","Five years ago, Andie Bell was murdered in the quiet town of Little Kilton. Everyone knows the story: her boyfriend, Sal Singh, killed her and then took his own life. The case is closed. But Pippa Fitz-Amobi has never quite believed it. When she chooses the murder as the subject of her senior capstone project, she tells herself she is only reopening old questions for a school assignment.\n\nThe deeper Pip digs, the less the official version holds together. With the help of Ravi Singh, Sal's younger brother, who has spent years living under the weight of his brother's supposed guilt, she starts tracing the last hours of Andie's life through interviews, old messages, and secrets the town would rather keep buried. Someone notices. As anonymous threats begin to arrive, it becomes clear that the truth is still dangerous, and that the real killer may be much closer than anyone imagined.\n\nTold through Pip's project log, transcripts, and maps alongside the narrative, Holly Jackson's debut is a tightly plotted whodunit that helped define a wave of modern young-adult crime fiction. It is a story about the cost of certainty, the pull of an unsolved case, and how far an ordinary teenager will go to be sure she has found the truth.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6w5vgmqycxdp0ef1n13tz.jpg","L29GR9xG0etRnis:aKR*2@Sf~Cw{",416,[1179],{"id":1180,"slug":1181,"name":1182},"01kjq708qaq6gwrvex7vbawj8b","holly-jackson-sfps","Holly Jackson",[1184,1185,1186,1187,1188,1189],{"id":436,"name":437,"slug":438,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":301,"name":302,"slug":303,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":952,"name":953,"slug":954,"is_fiction":19},{"id":957,"name":958,"slug":959,"is_fiction":19},[1191],{"id":1192,"slug":1193,"name":1173,"position":275,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjq708tq2w4nycb8n6dgczx3","a-good-girls-guide-to-murder-m9hd",{"pace":232,"complexity":7,"audience":1195,"mood":1196,"themes":1197,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"young_adult",[237,320,322],[],{"id":1199,"slug":1200,"title":1201,"description":1202,"primary_cover_url":1203,"cover_blurhash":1204,"first_publish_year":598,"community_rating_avg":1205,"community_rating_count":952,"page_count":1206,"authors":1207,"genres":1212,"series":1222,"enrichment":1223},"01kjq7te00e1c1w3h3vj67a7hn","gone-girl-a6u8","Gone Girl","On the morning of their fifth wedding anniversary, Amy Dunne disappears from the Missouri house she shares with her husband, Nick.

Nick, evasive and strangely composed under the cameras, quickly becomes the prime suspect in his wife's disappearance.\n\nGillian Flynn tells the story in two alternating voices. Nick narrates the investigation from the present as suspicion tightens around him, while Amy's diary traces the couple's courtship and the slow souring of their marriage. The two accounts refuse to line up, and the widening gap between them keeps the reader guessing about who is lying, who is telling the truth, and what really happened on the anniversary.\n\nBeneath the missing-person case, Gone Girl is a caustic anatomy of a modern marriage and the performances it demands. Flynn dissects the roles spouses play for each other and for the outside world, the machinery of a media spectacle, and the resentments that accumulate when two clever, image-conscious people stop being honest with each other. Sharp, cynical, and ruthlessly plotted around a pair of unreliable narrators, it became one of the defining psychological thrillers of its era.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktkx3dk6k3s6syphedc5mc2x.jpg?v=2f60cfe167","L35;,O~p%#-:MxIUM{Rj029GMxIV","4.02",486,[1208],{"id":1209,"slug":1210,"name":1211},"01kjq7te064746m1ayvtbsbyh4","gillian-flynn-liux","Gillian Flynn",[1213,1214,1215,1216,1217,1218],{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":301,"name":302,"slug":303,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":436,"name":437,"slug":438,"is_fiction":19},{"id":308,"name":309,"slug":310,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1219,"name":1220,"slug":1221,"is_fiction":19},43,"Domestic Thriller","domestic-thriller",[],{"pace":232,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":1224,"themes":1225,"setting_period":7,"summary":1226,"content_warnings":7},[322,320],[1011,589],"On their fifth wedding anniversary, Nick Dunne's wife, Amy, vanishes, leaving behind a trail of clues that suggest a struggle.

As the clues accumulate, Langdon and Sophie edge toward a revelation that a powerful institution has spent two thousand years trying to bury—one that could reshape how millions understand faith and history.\n\nA breathless overnight chase across Paris and London, The Da Vinci Code weaves cryptography, symbology, and religious history into a puzzle-driven thriller. It is the second novel featuring Robert Langdon and the book that made Dan Brown a global phenomenon.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6hg4bj85xmzpemc2cswcp.jpg","LCH,^QENxYS4.lWXt6sn9gj[R,WC","4.31",454,[1270],{"id":1271,"slug":1272,"name":1273},"01kjq7nrb18rgx9m126z6hryqe","dan-brown-pwui","Dan Brown",[1275,1276,1277,1278,1279,1283,1284],{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":301,"name":302,"slug":303,"is_fiction":19},{"id":436,"name":437,"slug":438,"is_fiction":19},{"id":876,"name":877,"slug":878,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1280,"name":1281,"slug":1282,"is_fiction":18},75,"Philosophy & Religion","philosophy-religion",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":773,"name":774,"slug":775,"is_fiction":18},[1286],{"id":1287,"slug":1288,"name":1289,"position":384,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjq7nrssg9jm7at57d8e2wh2","robert-langdon-nnyu","Robert Langdon",{"pace":232,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":1291,"themes":1292,"setting_period":7,"summary":1293,"content_warnings":7},[320,237,321],[240],"A murder inside the Louvre pulls symbologist Robert Langdon into an overnight chase across Paris and London, chasing a trail of clues hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci.",{"id":1295,"slug":1296,"title":1297,"description":1298,"primary_cover_url":1299,"cover_blurhash":1300,"first_publish_year":1301,"community_rating_avg":1302,"community_rating_count":514,"page_count":1303,"authors":1304,"genres":1309,"series":1320,"enrichment":1321},"01kjvxssdfpzhjw109f2ah30vn","the-girl-on-the-train-simk","The Girl on the Train","Rachel Watson takes the same commuter train into London every morning, and every morning it pauses at the same signal, giving her a clear view of a house four doors down from the home she once shared with her ex-husband. From the window she watches a young couple she has never met, inventing perfect lives for them and clinging to the fantasy as her own life falls apart under the weight of divorce and drinking.\n\nThen one morning she sees something shocking from the train, and days later the woman she has been watching is reported missing. Convinced she holds a piece of the puzzle, Rachel inserts herself into the investigation and into the lives of the people involved, even as her blackouts leave her unable to trust her own memory of that night.\n\nTold in the alternating, unreliable voices of three women, Paula Hawkins's debut is a taut psychological thriller about addiction, obsession, and the gap between the lives we imagine and the ones people actually live behind closed doors.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ksy95yjcetbm092fdnmkbvhb.jpg","L49i;PC1HwkS~L-QNeWEE6^1pEn+",2016,"3.48",349,[1305],{"id":1306,"slug":1307,"name":1308},"01kjvxsspkhv8rs9t8jfpxvqry","paula-hawkins-8xsb","Paula Hawkins",[1310,1311,1315,1316,1317,1318,1319],{"id":187,"name":648,"slug":649,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1312,"name":1313,"slug":1314,"is_fiction":18},85,"Travel","travel",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":436,"name":437,"slug":438,"is_fiction":19},{"id":308,"name":309,"slug":310,"is_fiction":19},{"id":301,"name":302,"slug":303,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":232,"complexity":7,"audience":235,"mood":1322,"themes":1323,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[322,320,237],[1011,241],[]]
