Samantha Downing, Too Old For This
(Berkley)
“Wryly funny and clever… Downing’s impressive ability to have readers rooting for her anti-heroes is on full display in this propulsive cat-and-mouse thriller.”—Library Journal
Katie Collom, Peter Miles Has to Die
(Bantam)
“What happens when three women decide to avenge the murder of their best friend?…I couldn’t put down this thriller and was stunned by a plot twist that was a complete shock and yet made perfect sense.”—Amanda Eyre Ward, New York Times bestselling author of The Jetsetters
Mike Phillips. Dancing Face
(Melville House)
“This book is brutal, deep, cunning and unbearably beautiful”– The Independent
Jo Morey, Lime Juice Money
(Harper)
“Suspenseful . . . Morey’s sumptuous imagery and intricate plotting underscore the power of nature as a corrupting influence. Those familiar with The Mosquito Coast (1981) by Paul Theroux and The Beach (1996) by Alex Garland will appreciate this book’s similarly unsettling atmosphere lurking beneath the veil of paradise.” — Booklist
Daphne Fama, House of Monstrous Women
(Berkley)
“Themes of political oppression, intergenerational trauma, and feminine power reflect in both the real-world and supernatural horrors Josephine must survive. This is a sharp, scary read….”—Booklist (starred review)
Jimmy Juliano, 13 Months Haunted
(Dutton)
“Inventive…Juliano’s premise is fresh, the central puzzle is intriguing, and a present-day frame narrative told by one of Piper’s distant cousins raises the stakes.” —Publishers Weekly
Cleyvis Natera, The Grand Paloma Resort
(Ballantine)
“One of the most compelling stories you will read this year.”—Charmaine Wilkerson
Alexis Soloski, Flashout
(Flatiron)
“Soloski smoothly transfers her masterful journalistic writing to this novel, creating a classic yet entirely modern noir. Fast-paced, funny, sexy, and witty, Here in the Dark is a satisfying read to the very last word.”—Chicago Review of Books
Archer Sullivan, The Witch’s Orchard
(Minotaur)
“A tough heroine who refuses to quit uses her own troubled background to crack the case.” –Kirkus Reviews
Karin Slaughter, We Are All Guilty Here
(William Morrow)
“This intense novel starts big and never lets up, as layer after layer is revealed and peeled away. Another suspenseful winner from Slaughter.” — Library Journal (starred review)
