Admin_99 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Another week, another batch of books for your TBR pile. Happy reading, folks. * Anthony Horowitz, The Twist of a Knife (Harper) “This humorous homage to golden age closed-circle mysteries is not to be missed.” –Publishers Weekly Amita Murray, Arya Winters and the Cupcakes of Doom (Agora) “A captivating blend of mystery and romance that explores themes of diversity and social dysfunction with subtlety and empathy but also with wacky, sometimes ribald humor. Offbeat, irreverent, funny, and boasting a broad, multifaceted plot, this one will appeal to fans who enjoy quirky, genre-defying reads.” –Booklist Sevgi Soysal (transl. Maureen Freely), Dawn (Archipelago) “The fluid shifts in points of view underscore the precariousness of the characters’ lives during a tumultuous and violent period following a recent coup . . . [Dawn] powerfully underscores how the threat of violence drives all the characters into suspicion and paranoia. This story of persecution convinces with its urgency and humanity.” –Publishers Weekly Craig Henderson, Welcome to the Game (Atlantic Monthly Press) “Henderson makes his flawed and troubled lead easy to sympathize with, and fleshed-out characters match satisfying plot twists. Fans of the Fast & Furious movie franchise will be riveted.” –Publishers Weekly Chuck Wendig, Wayward (Del Rey) “If King had written a sequel to The Stand, it might look something like this monumental epic of a story.” –James Rollins Loren D. Estleman, Paperback Jack (Forge Books) “Estleman, who got his own start writing paperbacks, peppers the action with delicious period ambience (dive bars where ‘sots blubbered in their Schlitz’) and a wealth of scrumptious detail on the salad days of drugstore paperbacks.” –Booklist Elly Griffiths, Bleeding Heart Yard (Mariner) “Stunning…Jaw-dropping red herrings, headbanging twists and turns, and Rashomon-like alternating narratives add to the briskly paced plot, which builds to a reconstruction of the original crime and a bombshell revelation.” –Publishers Weekly Ewan Morrison, How To Survive Everything (Harper Perennial) “Hilarious, foreboding with all of the brilliance and brutality of life in between. Haley is the hero of our times—bold, bewitching, and superbly drawn. Her voice rang in my ears long after I reluctantly turned the last page.” –Diane Cook Mariah Fredericks, The Lindbergh Nanny (Minotaur) “A poignant crime novel… Fredericks creates suspense for even those familiar with the case by suggesting the real-life culprit had accomplices, thus rendering everyone a suspect. Betty’s distress and distrust are palpable, heightening anxiety. Historical mystery fans and true crime aficionados will be well pleased.” –Publishers Weekly Alice Henderson, A Ghost of Caribou (William Morrow) “Henderson manages to marry both suspense and mystery in this book, featuring a classic, suspense-driven fight-and-flight with several overarching mysteries. It’s even better than the excellent first book in the series, A Solitude of Wolverines.” –First Clue 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.
