Things You
Save in a Fire: A Novel by Katherine Center
"The novel is at its best in the fire station...its window into
firefighter culture is fascinating. But Things You Save In a Fire has a greater
ambition, too: shedding a light on trauma victims and the devastating effects
of ignoring emotional fallout from a harrowing experience."
Under
Currents: A Novel by Nora Roberts
"[Under Currents] is brilliantly plotted and unrelentingly
propulsive. It is a beautifully written story about the fragility of life and
the power of the past and the need to fight back... a highly recommended novel
for this summer."
Vendetta in
Death: An Eve Dallas Novel (In Death, Book 49) by J. D. Robb
"A rousing futuristic hunt for a serial killer of victims no one
will mourn."
The Turn of
the Key by Ruth Ware
"Let’s just say that if you’ve got an Echo, you’re going to unplug
it as soon as you finish the book… What
Ware does beautifully is infuse The Turn of the Key with a creepy Gothic
sensibility. For all of the novel’s contemporary touches—particularly the
house’s malevolent smart technology—she has delivered an old-fashioned horror
story, peopled by children with ‘eyes full of malice,’ a dour housekeeper
straight out of Rebecca and an inscrutable handyman."
Whisper
Network: A Novel by Chandler Baker
“A delicious and timely thriller...Part soapy shocker (one of the
characters is keeping a very big secret) and part legal thriller (excerpts from
depositions offer a glimpse into the third act). Think Big Little Lies meets
the famous 2017 list of men in the media industry accused of sexual
harassment.”
Window on the
Bay: A Novel by Debbie Macomber
“This heartwarming story sweetly balances friendship and mother-child
bonding with romantic love.”
The World That
We Knew: A Novel by Alice Hoffman
“[A] hymn to the power of resistance, perseverance and enduring love in
dark times…gravely beautiful…Hoffman the storyteller continues to dazzle.”
