Robert Jackson Bennett, A Drop of Corruption
(Del Rey)
“Wonderfully clever and compulsively readable . . . another winning blend of fantasy and classic detection.”
–Publishers Weekly
Julia Bartz, The Last Session
(Emily Bestler/Atria)
“Dark and entertaining, THE LAST SESSION had me compulsively flipping pages. Julia Bartz’s latest thriller explores the allure of wellness cults, the nature of trauma and healing, and all of the ways in which therapy can go wrong. If you enjoyed THE WRITING RETREAT as much as I did, you will love Bartz’s latest as well!”
–Lauren Ling Brown
Bryan Gruley, Bitterfrost
(Severn House)
“Visceral, vivid, and suspenseful, Bitterfrost immerses readers in a chilly ― and chilling ― world of lost dreams and deadly feuds. I was instantly and completely engrossed. Masterfully done.”
–Meg Gardiner
Sara Foster, When She Was Gone
(Blackstone)
“Foster is back! When She Was Gone is a master class of suspense, an edge-of-your-seat story that kept me up all night.”
–Dervla McTiernan
Jordan LaHaye Fontenot, Home of the Happy
(Mariner)
“Simultaneously lurid and lyrical, gothic and graceful, surreal and serene. . . [Home of the Happy is] memoir, reportage, and investigative journalism, wrapped in a propulsive narrative that tells the tale of a family and a place across time.”
–Country Roads
Lise Olsen, The Scientist and the Serial Killer
(Random House)
“Lise Olsen is not only a masterful investigative reporter, she’s one hell of a storyteller. Her sentences are completely dramatic, her character descriptions spot on. I felt a pit in my stomach reading this book.”
–Skip Hollandsworth
Shalini Abeysekera, This Monster of Mine
(Union Square)
“A relentless and beautifully balanced romantasy/legal thriller, offering blood and hope in equal measures.”
–Library Journal
