Another week, another batch of books for your TBR pile. Happy reading, folks.
Natalie Moss, The Night Hunter
(Berkley)
“Brutal and shrewd in equal measure, this scintillating closed-circle thriller marks Moss as an author to watch.”
–Publishers Weekly
Lauren Nossett, Indie Darling
(Flatiron)
“Nossett’s multifaceted mystery intrigues from the jump, with fraught band dynamics and music industry power plays adding dimension and drama to Kelly’s investigation. Kelly’s charming first-person narration, meanwhile, injects the tense proceedings with humor and hope. Fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid should take note.”
–Publishers Weekly
Sarai Walker, Furious Violet
(Harper)
“This claustrophobic, pulse-pounding tale of paranoia rivets from start to cathartic finish.”
–Kirkus Reviews
Shari Lapena, Getting Away with Murder
(Pamela Dorman)
“Classic Lapena—tense, twisted, [and] dark . . . With revealing insights into the lives of the haves and the have-nots and thought-provoking questions about morality, greed, envy, and punishment, Lapena serves up another surefire hit.”
–Booklist
Gloria Chao, The Mortal Enemy Murder Club
(Park Row)
“Laugh-out-loud funny, balanced with just the right amount of warm and fuzzies. Fans of cozy mysteries are going to devour The Mortal Enemy Murder Club. I adore how Chao shows women showing up for one another at their glorious, messiest best.”
–Bianca Marais
Catherine Ryan Howard, Buyer Beware
(Simon & Schuster)
“Howard’s latest delightfully wicked novel is a mesmerizing thriller filled with love, betrayal, paranoia, and revenge.”
–Library Journal
Chelsea Iversen, The Whisper
(Sourcebooks Landmark)
“Atmospheric, magical, and deliciously twisty, The Whisper is a haunting, witchy thriller about the bonds of friendship and the dangers of returning to the past. Equal parts enchanting and chilling, I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough!”
–Nichelle Giraldes
Victoria Thompson, Ellen Thompson, City of Promises
(Berkley)
“Set in 1921 in New York City, this book is rich in period detail of a time when newly won women’s suffrage and the Ziegfeld follies occupied minds in the metropolis.”
–Booklist
Philippa Perry, Shrink Solves Murder
(Crown)
“The first novel from psychotherapist and nonfiction bestseller Perry bears all the hallmarks of a Richard Osman-style cosy: a small community with a picturesque setting; prickly-but-lovable middle-class types who turn to crime-solving in later life. . . . An enjoyable blend of mystery and gentle satire.”
–The Guardian
Marc Cameron, Backtrack
(Kensington)
“Great storytellers aren’t made. They’re born. It’s in their DNA. And Marc Cameron is one of the great ones. Cameron’s novels hook you from the first line, cement your eyes to the page, and grip your heart in a vice. His characters are raw and real, their complexity shaped by Cameron’s deep understanding of human frailty. His plot lines are so cleverly twisted you never see the switchbacks coming. Honest to God, I can’t think of another writer whose work I admire more.”
–William Kent Krueger
