James Wolff, The Man in the Corduroy Suit
(Bitter Lemon)
“A memorable voice in the genre, Wolff’s prose, all sharp edges and abrupt surprises, keeping the reader in a state of edgy discomfort.”
–New York Times
Riley Sager, The Only One Left
(Dutton)
“Perennial thriller favorite Riley Sager is back with another page-turner this summer, this one riffing on one of America’s most famous and most notorious true crime cases. . . . The kind of book you’ll stay up late into the night trying to finish.”
–Paste Magazine
Clémence Michallon, The Quiet Tenant
(Knopf)
“A gripping psychological suspense novel . . . Michallon’s riveting tale shows a killer through the eyes of the women in his life.”
–The Washington Post
Melissa Adelman, What the Neighbors Saw
(Minotaur)
“In the armful of suburban domestic thrillers publishing this summer, this debut—with its wild, super-spin of a plot, in which everything is turned upside down—is one not to miss.”
–Brian Kenney, First Clue
Sarah Stewart Taylor, A Stolen Child
(Minotaur)
“The bucolic setting, emphasis on family and leisurely pace make for a nice end run around traditional police procedurals.”
–The New York Times Book Review
Julia Heaberlin, Night Will Find You
(Flatiron)
“This gripping page-turner from Heaberlin conceals its secrets from even the cleverest readers…Vivian is an intelligent, perceptive character who’s a pleasure to spend time with, and when the plot kicks into gear, it’s nearly impossible to stop reading. This is Heaberlin at her best.”
–Publishers Weekly
Andrea Bartz, The Spare Room
(Ballantine)
“The novel is delightfully salacious and rampant with suspense and sex, and there’s a reason why Bartz is known as a hitmaker in the field.”
–Shondaland
Ruth Ware, Zero Days
(Gallery/Scout)
“The action and tension are relentless from the opening to the conclusion, which will astonish, but certainly not dismay, readers, who will be captivated by this very original and very real protagonist. It has been said that in Ruth Ware’s books the pages just turn themselves. She has been heralded as ‘the new Agatha Christie’ for good reason.”
–Booklist
Rebecca McKanna, Don’t Forget the Girl
(Sourcebooks)
“A heartbreaking story of female friendship, first love, and betrayal, Rebecca McKanna explodes onto the thriller scene with her debut, Don’t Forget the Girl. Absolutely phenomenal!”
–Julie Clark
Jon Bassoff, Beneath Cruel Waters
(Blackstone)
“Jon Bassoff never wastes a word in this pitch-perfect tooth-chipper of a novel about the frayed realities of the human condition. His prose crafts a claustrophobic and haunted past in order to decipher the pieces of a tortured present. A mesmerizing and satisfying display of storytelling.”
–Frank Bill
