Un parc d'attractions délabré. Quatorze concurrents. Sept jours pour gagner. Partout où se cacher, mais nulle part où fuir...
Mack a passé toute son existence à se cacher, elle est experte en la matière - c'est sans doute pour cela qu'elle est toujours en vie, contrairement à sa famille. Aussi, lorsqu'on lui propose de participer à une compétition de cache-cache avec une très belle somme à la clé, elle y voit une opportunité en or pour changer de vie. Gagner sera un véritable jeu d'enfant.
Seulement, lorsque ses adversaires commencent à disparaître mystérieusement les uns après les autres, Mack comprend que cette fois-ci, le seul moyen pour elle de survivre est peut-être d'affronter en groupe ce qui les pourchasse. Mais comment s'assurer la victoire lorsque l'on a partout où se cacher et nulle part où fuir ? -
Le jeune Obi-Wan Kenobi face au vertige existentielle de l'adolescence !
Nouvel apprenti de Qui-Gon Jinn depuis peu, Obi-Wan Kenobi ne peut s'empêcher de se demander si leur association n'est pas une erreur. Le Padawan excelle au maniement du sabre laser, mais Qui-Gon veut surtout qu'il travaille la méditation. Et tandis que d'autres Padawans accompagnent leur maître pour des missions lointaines et passionnantes, Qui-Gon et son élève restent sur Coruscant. Aussi, lorsqu'Obi-Wan découvre des indices concernant une affaire restée en suspens sur une planète mystérieuse, il convainc Qui-Gon d'aller y enquêter. Mais le matin du départ, son maître demeure introuvable. Furieux et blessé, Obi-Wan décide de partir seul pour accomplir cette mission.
Arrivé sur Lenahra, il découvre que les seuls habitants de la planète sont de jeunes utilisateurs de la Force. Plus il passe de temps avec eux, loin du quotidien du Temple, plus il doit affronter sa plus grande crainte : peut-être n'a-t-il jamais été destiné à devenir un Jedi ? Pourtant il ne peut s'empêcher de sentir que quelque chose ne va pas sur Lenahra. Obi-Wan parviendra-t-il à rétablir son lien avec la Force à temps pour se sauver, ainsi que tous ceux qui l'entourent ? -
La princesse Guenièvre arrive à Camelot pour épouser le charismatique Roi Arthur, mais elle n'est pas celle qu'elle prétend être. Son vrai nom et sa véritable identité sont un secret.
La magie a été interdite dans le royaume et le sorcier Merlin qui en a été banni a trouvé un moyen de protéger le roi : faire de Guenièvre sa femme... et sa protectrice contre ceux qui veulent voir la ville du jeune souverain tomber.
Pour sauver la vie d'Arthur, sa nouvelle épouse va devoir naviguer dans une cour où les anciennes valeurs qui s'opposent au changement côtoient de nouvelles voix qui se battent pour un monde meilleur.
Mais au coeur de la forêt et dans les sombres profondeurs des lacs, la plus terrible des menaces attend pour récupérer ce qui lui est dû...
Les chevaliers d'Arthur croient qu'ils sont assez forts pour faire face à n'importe quel danger, mais Guenièvre sait qu'il faudra bien plus que des épées pour garder Camelot libre.
Des joutes meurtrières aux trahisons et aux romances interdites, La duperie de Guenièvre propose une lecture inédite et fascinante de la plus grande des légendes. Le combat entre la magie et le fer, le bien et le mal. Une oeuvre forte, novatrice et indispensable.

Jurant de découvrir la vérité sur son passé avec ou sans l'aide de Merlin, Guenièvre s'associe à l'ensorceleuse Morgane et à Mordred, tout en faisant face aux sentiments déroutants et interdits qu'elle nourrit encore pour lui.
Alors qu'elle fait une découverte terrifiante sur son identité, elle va devoir choisir entre défaire les erreurs du passé ou sauver Camelot, quitte à y laisser la vie... -
NATIONAL BESTSELLER Who is Mister Magic? Former child stars reunite to uncover the tragedy that ended their show-and discover the secret of its enigmatic host-in this «skin-crawling story of pop culture fandom and '90s nostalgia» (Melissa Albert, author of The Hazel Woods) from the author of Hide.
«[A] propulsive, exciting, often genuinely scary, endlessly compelling mystery.»-Terry Miles, author of Rabbits
A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: PopSugar, Polygon, Chicago Public Library, CrimeReads
Thirty years after a tragic accident shut down production of the classic children's program Mister Magic, the five surviving cast members have done their best to move on. But just as generations of cultishly devoted fans still cling to the lessons they learned from the show, the cast, known as the Circle of Friends, have spent their lives searching for the happiness they felt while they were on it. The friendship. The feeling of belonging. And the protection of Mister Magic.
But with no surviving video of the show, no evidence of who directed or produced it, and no records of who-or what-the beloved host actually was, memories are all the former Circle of Friends has.
Then a twist of fate brings the castmates back together at the remote desert filming compound that feels like it's been waiting for them all this time. Even though they haven't seen each other for years, they understand one another better than anyone has since.
After all, they're the only ones who hold the secret of that circle, the mystery of the magic man in his infinitely black cape, and, maybe, the answers to what really happened on that deadly last day. But as the Circle of Friends reclaim parts of their past, they begin to wonder: Are they here by choice, or have they been lured into a trap?
Because magic never forgets the taste of your friendship....

Alors que Brangien pleure son amour perdu, que Lancelot essaie de s'affirmer en tant que chevalière et qu'Arthur règne, la jeune femme réalise à quel point son existence est vide. Elle n'a aucun souvenir de qui elle était avant de jouer ce rôle de composition.
Après un évènement tragique, Guenièvre revient à Camelot pour y trouver la plus grande des menaces. Pas sous les traits de la Reine Noire ou d'une armée d'invasion, mais en la personne de la petite soeur de la vraie Guenièvre. Pourra-t-elle maintenir l'illusion ou va-t-elle faire face à un danger sans précédent ?
