Megan Davis, The Messenger
(Pegasus Crime)

“An intelligent, gripping, and stylish literary thriller—I couldn’t put it down. Megan Davis is a major new talent.”
–Sophie Hannah

Mindy Mejia, To Catch a Storm
(Atlantic Monthly Press)

“[P]ropulsive . . . Mejia sets things up nicely for further teamwork and conflict between Jonah and Eve, at the nexus point of what we can — and choose to — believe in.”
–New York Times

David Joy, Those We Thought We Knew
(Putnam)

“[A] searing stunner of a book…It’s like a Nina Simone song that contains ‘an infinite sort of sadness,’ yet closes with a promise of hope.”
–Minneapolis Star Tribune

Naomi Hirahara, Evergreen
(Soho)

“Hirahara humanizes the struggles of Japanese Americans rebuilding their lives from scratch. Her evocation of Little Tokyo haunts will bring a flood of memories for some Angelenos while introducing a new generation of readers to a pivotal period in L.A. history.”
–Paula Woods, The Los Angeles Times

Kyle Dillon Hertz, The Lookback Window
(Simon and Schuster)

“The prose is remarkable, alternating from lush sensuality to unsparing brutality to quick cutting asides. This marks the arrival of a vital new talent.”
–Publishers Weekly

Peter Heller, The Last Ranger
(Knopf)

“Heller offers an immersive story of a dedicated Yellowstone park ranger and the threats he faces down….Strong characterizations, a vivid sense of place, enough wolf lore to fill several NatGeo specials, and a Boy Scout Handbook’s worth of wood-crafting tips. Fans of fiction about the outdoors are well served.”
–Publisher’s Weekly

Sabine Durrant, Sun Damage
(Harper)

“Claustrophobic and suspenseful, with an engaging narrator and a satisfying twist: perfect poolside reading.”
–The Guardian (UK)

Gillian McAllister, Just Another Missing Person
(William Morrow)

“A twisty exploration of professional and familial responsibility, the anonymity of the internet, and the slippery slope to criminality.”
ºKirkus Reviews

Yepoka Yeebo, Anansi’s Gold
(Bloomsbury)

“For two decades, a Ghanaian con man surfed a wave of lies and luck, living large on multiple continents while swindling ‘millions upon millions of dollars’ … Even as [Yeebo] catches readers up in what often reads like a breathless caper, the author takes care to ground them in what matters most: Ghana and its sadly ‘fragile’ history … Utterly absorbing.”
–Kirkus Reviews

Catherine Ryan Howard, The Trap
(Blackstone)

“Howard’s propulsive new thriller is inspired by a spate of unsolved disappearances in Ireland in the 1990s…This scary, twisting, and psychologically incisive commentary on the recent increase in missing and murdered women in Ireland will leave readers guessing until the gut-punching reveal.”
–Library Journal

Lynn Hightower, The Beautiful Risk
(Severn House)

“Sensitive characterizations match the imaginative plot. Readers will compulsively turn the pages to see how it all ends.”
–Publishers Weekly
