Death Cloud by Andrew Lane



Before he became a famous detective, young Sherlock Holmes honed his skills with a series of adventures that begin when he is sent to live with his eccentric uncle and aunt. Used to a life of classical study at boarding school, Sherlock is unprepared for life in Hampshire, but he is quickly pulled into a case of murder, kidnapping, and corruption that almost get him killed when he discovers a Death Cloud controlled by a master villain.




His adventures continue in Rebel Fire, Black Ice, and Fire Storm.

Pivot Point & Split Second

Pivot Point & Split Second by Kasie West

Hidden deep in the mountains in Texas is the Compound, a place where Paranormals live and develop their talents undetected by Normals. Addison Colman’s gift makes her a Searcher, able to see two paths to the future when faced with a decision. But she never guessed she would have to make a choice between staying in the Compound with her mother or moving Outside with her father when her parents separate. In Pivot Point, Addie is faced with two impossible choices as she searches six weeks into the future, neither one a choice she wants to make. Told in alternating chapters of her two search paths, West has put together an outstanding first installment in Addie’s story.





In the follow-up, Split Second, Addie has made her choice and her friend Leila has Erased all memories of her path not chosen. Winter break finds Leila trying to learn how to restore Addie’s memories, while Addie is trying to connect with a boy on the Outside while visiting her father. Unlikely partnerships form as both Addie and Leila, in alternating chapters, attempt to master new abilities and find their own paths to happiness.
