William Kent Krueger, Spirit Crossing
(Atria)
“Krueger maintains an eerie tone throughout, folding subtle supernatural elements into one of his most puzzling mysteries to date. This long-running series still has plenty of gas in the tank.”
–Publishers Weekly
Jesse Q. Sutanto, You Will Never Be Me
(Berkley)
“Once best friends, the two momfluencers in this searing black comedy compete so greedily for sponsors and popularity that they destroy their relationship — and may stop at nothing to stay on top. Read this instead of doomscrolling.”
–People
Rachel Koller Craft, We Love the Nightlife
(Berkley)
“Disco, broken friendships, and a giant mystery are just the beginning…A bloody good time.”
–Cosmopolitan
Andrea Mara, Someone in the Attic
(Pamela Dorman)
“Bestselling Irish crime fiction writer Mara makes her U.S. debut with a meticulously crafted suspense tale replete with fiendishly clever twists and turns and a claustrophobic sense of menace that will have readers themselves wondering about the odd noise or two they hear at night in their own homes.”
–Library Journal
Kailee Pedersen, Sacrificial Animals
(St. Martin’s Press)
“This novel presents a contemplatively paced supernatural horror tale, centering family, trauma, and revenge, with unease infused into every detail…the tightly coiled tension will eventually explode; when it does, [readers] will be left gasping in awe. Pedersen’s debut skillfully balances character and atmosphere.”
–Library Journal
P.J. Tracy, City of Secrets
(Minotaur)
“Red meat for fans who want their procedurals as densely tangled as a real-life cop’s job.”
–Kirkus Reviews
James Wade, Hollow Out the Dark
(Blackstone)
“Narrative prowess and atmospheric prose echo the works of Ron Rash and Cormac McCarthy, resulting in a rich, character-driven story.”
–Deep South Magazine
Eugenie Montague, Swallow the Ghost
(Mulholland)
“Jane Murphy is a social media start-up worker whose star is on an inevitable rise. Or so it seems. Swallow The Ghost draws readers into Jane’s world only to open a series of trap doors that plunge us into different perspectives and realities, twisting what we think we know into new and unsettling shapes. Eugenie Montague has created a thrilling, intricate ecosystem of ambition, secrecy, and invention in this remarkable debut.”
–Laura van den Berg
Bridget Collins, The Silence Factory
(William Morrow)
“Thanks to its clever speculative twist, this stands out from the pack of Victorian historicals.”
–Publishers Weekly
Katharine Schellman, A Scandal in Mayfair
(Crooked Lane)
“The strong characters will appeal to readers of the Bridgerton romances, as well as those who appreciate Georgette Heyer’s stories.”
–Library Journal
