Camila Lackberg, The Golden Cage
(Random House)
“Läckberg outdoes herself with this delectable tale of revenge… Sexy… exquisite… scorching.”
–Publisher’s Weekly
John Fram, The Bright Lands
(Hanover Square)
“Fram’s ambitious debut takes a critical, terrifying look at a small town in Texas, where high school football reigns supreme and puts a double bind on those who are desperate to get out.”
–Publisher’s Weekly
Jasper Dewitt, The Patient
(HMH)
“A clever cocktail of psychological thriller and supernatural horror.”
–Kirkus Reviews
Kristen Lepionka, Once You Go This Far
(Minotaur)
“Expertly plotted. Roxane, with her vibrant narrative voice, stands as a worthy successor to Sue Grafton’s Kinsey Millhone.”
–Publisher’s Weekly
Ravi Somaiya, The Golden Thread
(Twelve)
“[An] impressive debut…This is an eye-opening account that could lead to renewed public interest in this tragedy.”
–Publisher’s Weekly

–Booklist
James Carlos Blake, The Bones of Wolfe
(Mysterious Press)
“Hold on to your hats. The Wolfe family saga continues in Blake’s newest Border Noir… An action-packed story of family loyalties with some surprisingly sentimental undertones.”
–Kirkus Reviews
Jay Stringer, Marah Chase and the Fountain of Youth
(Pegasus)
“Stringer, author of the Sam Ireland and Eoin Miller mysteries, has a winner here with Marah Chase—pulse-pounding adventure, in the best Indiana Jones tradition, with a charismatic gay woman fueling the action.
–Booklist
David Hill, The Vapors
(FSG)
“The Vapors is a deeply researched work … full of organized crime, cons, bootleggers, and all kinds of other seedy characters you hope for in a colorful history book.”
–Thrillist
Christina Shwarz, Bonnie
(Atria)
“Expertly magnifies the characters’ desperation and intertwines the excitement of eluding the law with their magnetic sexual attraction. Schwarz’s rich narrative brings fresh life into the notorious tale of two American outlaws.”
–Publishers Weekly
