By ELIZABETH BRUNDAGE A rich and complex portrait of a psychopath and a marriage, this is also an astute study of the various taints that can scar very different families, and even an entire community. A dark, riveting, beautifully written book that combines noir and the gothic in a story about two families entwined in their own unhappiness, with, at its heart, a gruesome and unsolved murder. "Succeeding as murder mystery, ghost tale, family drama, and love story, her novel is both tragic and transcendent.” —Publishers Weekly Click for More Information.
By CHRIS PAVONE From the New York Times bestselling author of The Expats and The Accident. When a beautiful woman makes Will Rhodes an offer he can’t refuse, he’s drawn into a tangled web of international intrigue. As he races across Europe, it becomes clear that the network of deception ensnaring him is part of a deadly conspiracy with terrifying global implications—and that the people closest to him may pose the greatest threat of all. "It’s hard to believe this is only Pavone’s third book—he’s already an automatic must-read for me.” –Lee Child, author of the #1 New York Times…
By LYNDSAY FAYE “Reader, I murdered him.” A reimagining of Jane Eyre as a gutsy, heroic serial killer, this satirical romance about identity, goodness, and the nature of lies is a brilliant and deeply absorbing book inspired by Charlotte Brontë’s classic heroine. "Faye’s skill at historical mystery was evident in her nineteenth-century New York trilogy, but this slyly satiric stand-alone takes her prowess to new levels. A must for Brontë devotees; wickedly entertaining for all." —Booklist (starred review) Click for More Information.
A NOVEL By HELEN SIMONSON The bestselling author of Major Pettigrew’s Last Stand returns with a breathtaking novel of love on the eve of World War I that reaches far beyond the small English town in which it is set. “A bright confection of a book morphs into a story of dignity and backbone. . . . This book is beautifully plotted and morally astute.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Click for More Information.
