Alice Feeney, His and Hers
(Flatiron)
“[A] cunningly constructed psychological thriller…This is a masterpiece of misdirection.”
–Publisher’s Weekly
Unspeakable Acts, edited by Sarah Weinman
(Ecco)
“With nuance and sensitivity, Weinman curates essays that consider the explosion of interest in true crime, stories from the perspectives of victims, and tales that present new information about notorious killers. . . . This enthralling volume insists that there can and should be humanity within true crime.”
–Library Journal
Jon Land, Strong From the Heart
(Forge)
“[A] very timely novel in which the good guys are in short supply and drastically underfunded compared to their adversaries. A fine entry in an excellent series.”
–Booklist
Stan Parish, Love and Theft
(Doubleday)
“Love and Theft is the caper thriller we’ve all been waiting for–lean, sophisticated, ice-cold, endlessly surprising. What took it so long to get here?”
–Lincoln Child
Alexander McCall Smith, The Geometry of Holding Hands
(Pantheon)
The thirteenth installment in the author’s internationally popular Isabel Dalhousie series.

–Publisher’s Weekly
Suzanne Rindell, The Two Mrs Carlyles
(Putnam)
“A gripping, twisting novel of historical suspense set in the aftermath of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, The Two Mrs. Carlyles explores trust and deception among lifelong friends.”
–Shelf Awareness
Jax Miller, Hell In the Heartland
(Berkley)
“A captivating ride through the frustrating twists, turns, and dead ends of a horrifying murder case…. This is as much an exploration of the underlying social issues that feed into a system of fear and violence as it is about the crime itself.”
–Publisher’s Weekly
Lindsey Davis, The Grove of the Caesars
(Minotaur)
“The audacious Flavia Albia returns…this one ends with a surprising conclusion that will make fans adore Flavia even more, if that is possible.”
–Booklist
Shari Lapena, The End of Her
(Viking)
“The fast pace will keep those fond of mischief and murder in suburbia turning the pages.”
