Jane Harper, Exiles
(Flatiron)
“Falk’s investigation is a terrific one, but what makes the book memorable is Harper’s skill at plumbing personal mysteries.”

David James Keaton, Head Cleaner
(Polis)
“A fun, fast, crazy sci-fi romp.”
–Amber Sparks
Elle Cosimano, Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun
(Minotaur)

–Library Journal
C. J. Tudor, The Drift

“[A] tour de force . . . This is a masterpiece of its kind.”
–Publishers Weekly
Jumata Emill, The Black Queen
(Delacorte)

Jeff Guinn, Waco: David Koresh, the Branch Davidians, and A Legacy of Rage
(Simon and Schuster)
“Riveting. . . . As the author did in previous reports on Charles Manson and Jonestown, Guinn dives deeply into his subject to present a vivid combination of well-researched facts, personal testimonials, and controversial perspectives. A convincing and chilling coda to this investigation is the correlations Guinn draws among the Davidian compound raid, the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, and the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection.”
–Kirkus Reviews

“Amid the classic noir elements, author Sterling Watson slow-rolls a moving reflection on the costs to the human heart of vast social and economic change.”
