Admin_99 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 A look at the week’s best new releases. * Catherine McKenzie, Please Join Us (Atria) “I devoured this book in one sitting! The First Wives Club meets The Firm in a chilling, serpentine ride that will leave you breathless. Please Join Us belongs at the very top of your TBR stack.” –Liv Constantine William Kent Krueger, Fox Creek (Atria) “Fox Creek is the best book in the series yet.” –Minneapolis Star Tribune Cate Holahan, The Darkness of Others (Grand Central) “The Darkness of Others is a deftly plotted, smartly observed page-turner that manages to thrill at the same time as capture the emotional chaos of the early pandemic years.” –Attica Locke Ella King, Bad Fruit (Astra House) “A compelling debut that fizzes with tension from start to finish, blending the subtle erudition of literary fiction with the drama and suspense of the very best thrillers. Masterful in its evocation of the complexity of mother-daughter relationships, this is a darkly fascinating, tightly plotted narrative from a writer to watch.” –Harper’s Bazaar (UK) David Lagercrantz (transl. Ian Giles), Dark Music (Knopf) “Rekke [is a] gem of a character . . . Kudos to Lagercrantz and translator Giles for a compelling read.” –Kirkus Reviews Jincy Willett, Amy Among the Serial Killers (St. Martin’s Press) “Delightfully mind-bending…a riotous, breathless, winking, strangely feel-good romp.” –Kirkus Reviews Mindy Quigley, Six Feet Deep Dish (Minotaur) “Every now and again a cozy comes along in which the author not only checks off all of the boxes but does such an excellent job in the process that the book totally stands out from the crowd. This is the case with Six Feet Deep Dish….Droll and witty, sophisticated and credible, this is a series to watch out for.” –First Clue Joyce Carol Oates, Babysitter (Knopf) “Unsettling, mysterious, deft, sinister, eerily plausible.” –Margaret Atwood Benjamin Cunningham, The Liar: How a Double Agent in the CIA Became the Cold War’s Last Honest Man (PublicAffairs) “The glamour of espionage usually gets more attention than the flawed and fascinating people who practice it. By focusing his story on the rich and multilayered lives of Karel and Hana Koecher, Cunningham gets as close to the heart of the spy as it’s possible to get.” –Joe Weisberg Lauren Young, Hitlers Girl: The British Aristocracy and the Third Reich on the Eve of WWII (Harper) “Defense analyst Young explores the pro-Nazi sentiments of ‘an influential segment of [Britain’s] elite’ in this . . . intriguing history . . . The brisk narrative contains many shocking revelations.” –Publishers Weekly View the full article Michael Neff Algonkian Producer New York Pitch Director Author, Development Exec, Editor We are the makers of novels, and we are the dreamers of dreams.
