James Lee Burke, Don’t Forget Me, Little Bessie
(Atlantic)

“Kaleidoscopic…This is another winner from a crime writer at the top of his game.”
–Publishers Weekly

Mailan Doquang, Ceylon Sapphires
(Mysterious Press)

“Gripping . . . Doquang’s evocative descriptions of Europe’s backstreets and Rune’s fast-thinking strategic moves will appeal to both espionage and heist fans, especially those seeking a cat burglar with depth.”
–Booklist

Katia Lief, Women Like Us
(Atlantic)

“Lief explores the effects of family trauma on a trio of strong, flawed women [and] . . . celebrates the power of female friendship, especially in middle age.”
–Kirkus Reviews

Ashley Weaver, One Final Turn
(Minotaur)

“There’s a definite swoon factor from the love and espionage angle here—readers will be reminded of Hitchcock’s Notorious (1946) and Curtiz’s Casablanca as Electra uses all her skills to once again thwart the secret plans of the Nazis. A rip-roaring finale for a terrific series.”
–Booklist

Julie Clark, The Ghostwriter
(Sourcebooks Landmark)

“Clark effortlessly delivers on her clever, metatextual premise in this devilish thriller…keeps readers guessing about Taylor’s motives and guilt, all while playing scrupulously fair with the reader. It adds up to a deeply satisfying shocker in the vein of Riley Sager’s The Only One Left.”
–Publishers Weekly

Maggie Stiefvater, The Listeners
(Viking)

“The true story of Axis diplomats detained in the U.S. at the start of World War II is transformed into a dazzling historical novel set at a sumptuous West Virginia hotel. . . . A novel that will remind readers of why they fell in love with reading in the first place. . . .This luxurious novel is set to take the world by storm.”
–Kirkus Reviews

Kimberly Belle, The Expat Affair
(Park Row)

“Writing with authenticity and grace, Kimberly Belle provides a deliciously chilling look at the lives of two women – an expat in Amsterdam, and the woman who seems determined to ruin her. Twisty, glitzy and oh so fun!”
–Sarah Pekkanen

Olivia Worley, So Happy Together
(Minotaur)

“Propulsive and extremely tense…for fans of Ruth Ware, Riley Sager, and Freida McFadden.”
–Booklist

Thomas E. Ricks, We Can’t Save You
(Pegasus)

“Ricks nimbly weaves together elements of political thriller, whodunit, and domestic drama.”
–Publishers Weekly

Rory Power, Kill Creatures
(Delacorte)

“Power masterfully seeds Nan’s narrative with subtle clues to her unreliability that will keep readers hooked until the full truth is told—and it is a doozy. This gripping, smartly plotted thriller has high appeal.”
–Booklist
