Admin_99 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Another week, another batch of books for your TBR pile. Happy reading, folks. * Sarah Ochs, The Resort (Sourcebooks) “An escapist up-all-night thriller that holds you under and doesn’t let you surface for air.” –Lucy Clarke Brandy Schillace, The Framed Women of Ardemore House (Hanover Square) “Twisty, engaging, and thoroughly unexpected, The Framed Women of Ardemore House is a must-read for any mystery lover. Featuring a unique cast of characters and a village full of dirty little secrets, this book delivers a fresh take on the English cozy.” –Deanna Raybourn Kit Frick, The Split (Atria/Emily Bestler) “A knotty Sliding Doors–esque thriller about two sisters who share a dark secret. . . Frick keeps readers deliriously off-balance, tossing out just enough breadcrumbs to make the truth seem obvious only in hindsight. The format gives new life to the unreliable narrator trope. This is an exhilarating puzzle.” –Publishers Weekly Iris Yamashita, Village in the Dark (Berkley) “[A] compelling story, perfect for readers of crime novels set in isolated areas or those that feature strong, independent characters.” –Library Journal Jack Clark, Nobody’s Angel (Hard Case Crime) “My favorite fiction novel this year was written by a taxi driver who used to hand it out to his passengers. It’s a terrific story and character study…Kudos to Hard Case Crime for publishing Mr. Clark’s book.” –Quentin Tarantino Tom Baragwanath, Paper Cage (Knopf) “Baragwanath’s debut is both social novel and thriller, spinning the tensions between the white and Māori populations, the chokehold of street gangs, and the toll of drug addiction on young families into a suspenseful crime drama. . . . Just the kind of dark, disturbing, gritty, and unusual treat thriller lovers are looking for.” —Kirkus Reviews Gwenda Bond, The Frame-Up (Del Rey) “A clever art heist, a smoldering old flame, an irresistible found family tied together through magic . . . Gwenda Bond’s The Frame-Up is a twisty, riveting, and fantastically original story.” –Elle Cosimano Casey Sherman, A Murder in Hollywood (Sourcebooks) “A well-researched and new take on one of Hollywood’s most notorious mysteries. True-crime fans and celebrity mavens will enjoy.” –Library Journal Amitav Ghosh, Smoke and Ashes (FSG) “A scintillating and kaleidoscopic vision of opium’s role in the past several centuries of global history . . . Exquisitely written and packed with astonishing insight, this is a must-read.” –Publishers Weekly Ronald Drabkin, Beverly Hills Spy (William Morrow) “A beguiling tale of espionage and double-dealing in the years leading up to World War II. . . . Drabkin’s expertly narrated yarn, based on a trove of recently declassified documents, is constantly surprising, and it’s just the thing for thriller fans who enjoy kindred fictions of the Alan Furst variety. Strap in for a narrative that demands a suspension of disbelief—and richly rewards it.” –Kirkus Reviews 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.
