Shift by Em Bailey
Shift is a sinister YA psychological thriller that tears through the themes of identity, loss and toxic friendship. Olive Corbett is definitely not crazy. Not anymore. These days she takes her meds like a good girl, hangs out with her best friend Ami, and stays the hell away from the toxic girls she used to be friends with. She doesn't need a boyfriend. Especially not a lifesaver-type with a nice smile. And she doesn't need the drama of that creepy new girl Miranda, who has somehow latched on to Olive's ex-best friend. Yet from a distance, Olive can see there's something sinister about the new friendship. Something almost...parasitic. Maybe the wild rumours are true. Maybe Miranda is a killer. But who would believe Olive? She does have a habit of letting her imagination run away with her...
Special Agent Man by Steve Moore
For decades, movies and television shows have portrayed FBI agents as fearless heroes leading glamorous lives, but this refreshingly original memoir strips away the fantasy and glamour and describes the day-to-day job of an FBI special agent. The book gives a firsthand account of a career in the Federal Bureau of Investigation from the academy to retirement, with exciting and engaging anecdotes about SWAT teams, counter-terrorism activities, and undercover assignments.
High Speed by DC Grant
When Jason Shaw is woken by cops at his front door, he knows instantly that something is wrong. The police - who are also friends of the family - confirm it. Jason's parents have been involved in a high speed crash. Everyone believes it's an accident, but then their home gets turned over as someone seems to be searching for something incriminating. When they find it, Jason finds himself in trouble, and out on his own.
