    “Broken Angels” is the UK title; esewhere aka “Merciless”.
    “Play Dead” is the UK title; elsewhere aka “Badlands”

    I don’t know why they do it. It is extremely annoying (understatement) to find a title one hasn’t read only to discover that it was published under a different title. Quite frankly, I think it is a scam to make people buy books unnecessarily.

      Boy do I agree with you! It is difficult enough to find books through my library without different titles in other countries.
