Synopsis The Watcher in the Shadows by : Carlos Ruiz Zafon

A chilling, compelling mystery from the internationally bestselling author of The Shadow of the Wind. When fourteen-year-old Irene Sauvelle moves with her family to Cape House on the coast of Normandy, she's immediately taken by the beauty of the place--its expansive cliffs, coasts, and harbors. There, she meets a local boy named Ishmael, and the two soon fall in love. But a dark plot is about to unfold involving a reclusive toymaker who lives in a gigantic mansion filled with mechanical beings and shadows of the past. As strange lights shine through the fog surrounding a small, barren island, Irene's younger brother dreams of a dark creature hidden deep in the forest. And when a young girl is found murdered, her body at the end of a path torn through the woods by a monstrous, inhuman force, Irene and Ishmael wonder--has a demonic presence been unleashed on the inhabitants of Cape House? Together, they'll have to survive the most terrifying summer of their lives.

Henry and Isabelle have secretly sworn to marry despite his lowly station as a carpenter, but his devotion to her drives him to commit an unthinkable act that may cost both of them their lives. At the same time, a secret, dark prophecy has set in motion events that will affect not only them, but the thrones of rulers throughout all of Atolas, threatening to eclipse the world in shadow.

Synopsis Watcher in the Shadows by : Geoffrey Household

After an assassination attempt, an ex-spy must run for his life As far as the police are concerned, Charles Dennim is a zoologist, and there is no reason anyone would want to kill him. And yet, one afternoon when Dennim is working at his desk, death knocks at his door. It is the postman, and he has a package slightly too large to fit through the mail slot. He tries to force it—and triggers the bomb that lies within. When Dennim emerges from the smoking ruin of his doorway, he sees the innocent postman, ripped in half on his front stoop. The police are baffled, but Dennim is not—for he was once a spy. This mild-mannered scientist spent World War II embedded deep in Nazi Germany, feeding secrets back to Great Britain. He buried that side of himself long ago, but a nameless killer has decided to dig it back up. To survive, Dennim must remember what it means to be a spy.
