“Meticulously crafted and deeply satisfying...a first-class psychological thriller.”​ —Charlotte Philby, author of Part of the Family A twisty, whip-smart debut thriller, as electrifying as the #1 New York Times bestseller The Girl on the Train, about impending motherhood, unreliable friendship, and the high price of keeping secrets. Helen’s idyllic life—handsome architect husband, gorgeous Victorian house, and cherished baby on the way (after years of trying)—begins to change the day she attends her first prenatal class and meets Rachel, an unpredictable single mother-to-be. Rachel doesn’t seem very maternal: she smokes, drinks, and professes little interest in parenthood. Still, Helen is drawn to her. Maybe Rachel just needs a friend. And to be honest, Helen’s a bit lonely herself. At least Rachel is fun to be with. She makes Helen laugh, invites her confidences, and distracts her from her fears. But her increasingly erratic behavior is unsettling. And Helen’s not the only one who’s noticed. Her friends and family begin to suspect that her strange new friend may be linked to their shared history in unexpected ways. When Rachel threatens to expose a past crime that could destroy all of their lives, it becomes clear that there are more than a few secrets laying beneath the broad-leaved trees and warm lamplight of Greenwich Park.

The Child in Cabin 13

Nina Sadowsky

"A charismatic man's death leaves his family asking questions and exposing secrets, revealing the man they loved as an unrepentant pathological liar in this explosive thriller from film producer and author Nina Sadowsky. Justin Childs is handsome, likeable, smart. A devoted son to his mother, Carol; a loving husband to his wife, Annie; and a surefooted, savvy business partner to his best friend from college, Will. To so many, the perfect man. He's also a liar. And now he's dead. When Justin's body is retrieved from the wreckage of a car accident, his death leaves his loved ones with more questions than answers. In the weeks before, he had been acting strangely--Annie suspected Justin was having an affair, Will assumed it was the pressure of their company's launch--but it was nothing his promises and assurances couldn't fix. But with Justin gone, the cracks begin to show: a secret apartment, disturbing discrepancies in the company's financials. And the woman Annie thought he was sleeping with? She's been missing for a week. As the lies and secrets pile up, Annie, Carol, and Will realize their beloved Justin was not the man they thought he was. When the police come knocking on Will's door to ask about the missing woman, it looks like Justin may be trying to lay his dark secrets at Will's feet. One final lie from beyond the grave. Convince Me is a chilling look at what makes a sociopath in an age of untruth--and a high-octane, surprising read to its very last page"--

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “A stunning debut.” —Washington Post “Haunting [and] powerful.” —The New York Times “A modern-day classic.” —Jeffery Deaver, New York Times bestselling author of The Bone Collector “Fantastic, I loved it.” —Paula Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl on the Train She thought she had escaped her past. But there are some things you can’t outrun. Lex Gracie doesn't want to think about her family. She doesn't want to think about growing up in her parents' House of Horrors. And she doesn't want to think about her identity as Girl A: the girl who escaped, the eldest sister who freed her older brother and four younger siblings. It's been easy enough to avoid her parents--her father never made it out of the House of Horrors he created, and her mother spent the rest of her life behind bars. But when her mother dies in prison and leaves Lex and her siblings the family home, she can't run from her past any longer. Together with her sister, Evie, Lex intends to turn the home into a force for good. But first she must come to terms with her siblings--and with the childhood they shared. What begins as a propulsive tale of escape and survival becomes a gripping psychological family story about the shifting alliances and betrayals of sibling relationships--about the secrets our siblings keep, from themselves and each other. Who have each of these siblings become? How do their memories defy or galvanize Lex's own? As Lex pins each sibling down to agree to her family's final act, she discovers how potent the spell of their shared family mythology is, and who among them remains in its thrall and who has truly broken free. For readers of Room and Sharp Objects, an absorbing and psychologically immersive novel about a young girl who escapes captivity–but not the secrets that shadow the rest of her life.

In this twenty-fifth in the electrifying, landmark #1 bestselling thriller series chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta hunts an ingenious killer who has mastered cutting-edge science for the most nefarious ends. Forensic pathologist Kay Scarpetta has returned to Virginia as the chief medical examiner. Finding herself the new girl in town once again after being away for many years, she's inherited an overbearing secretary and a legacy of neglect and possible corruption. She and her husband Benton Wesley, now a forensic psychologist with the U.S. Secret Service, have relocated to Old Town Alexandria where she's headquartered five miles from the Pentagon in a post-pandemic world that's been torn by civil and political unrest. Just weeks on the job, she's called to a scene by railroad tracks where a woman's body has been shockingly displayed, her throat cut down to the spine, and as Scarpetta begins to follow the trail, it leads unnervingly close to her own historic neighborhood. At the same time, a catastrophe occurs in a top secret private laboratory in outer space, and at least two scientists aboard are found dead. Appointed to the highly classified Doomsday Commission that specializes in sensitive national security cases, Scarpetta is summoned to the White House Situation Room and tasked with finding out what happened. But even as she works the first crime scene in space remotely, an apparent serial killer strikes again. And this time, Scarpetta could be in greater danger than ever before. In this latest novel in her groundbreaking Kay Scarpetta series, Patricia Cornwell captivates readers with the shocking twists, high-wire tension, and forensic detail that she is famous for, proving once again why she's the world's #1 bestselling crime writer.

Debbie Howells

A blighted memory. A child who seems never to have existed. A watcher in the shadows. When they find Evie Sherman, battered and left for dead in a maize field, the young woman has no recollection of who she is. After three days in a hospital bed, the fog in her head begins to lift, and she remembers two names: her own, and that of her three-year-old daughter, Angel. The police can find no evidence of the girl's existence. But in the depths of her amnesiac darkness, Evie knows her daughter's voice, her chameleon eyes, every precious hair on her head--and that Angel is in grave danger. So how can she be losing her mind? As Evie's grasp on reality slips away, she finds herself haunted by the same three-word warning: Trust no one. But whom is she being warned against? The police? The doctors and nurses? Or the mysterious figure who's been watching her, who knows all her secrets, has a hidden agenda--and perhaps their own twisted version of reality.

INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR Q: What Makes The Adam Lapid Historical Mysteries Series Unique? A: I wanted to write a historical murder mystery series that takes place in the early days of the State of Israel, starting in 1949, right after Israel became independent. As far as I know, there is no other mystery series that takes place in Israel at that time. Adam Lapid is a private detective like no other.

So you can expect an emotional and exciting reading experience, one that will stay with you long after you turn the last page. Q: Do I need to read the books in a specific order? A: Each of the books in the Adam Lapid series is a standalone mystery. You can pick any book and start reading. That being said, you may find it better to read the books in chronological order. I recommend the following sequence: Ten Years Gone The Dead Sister The Auschwitz Violinist A Debt of Death Q: What sort of reader will enjoy reading Ten Years Gone? A: If you like crime fiction, especially private investigator mysteries with a dash of vigilante justice, you will love Ten Years Gone. If you have a particular interest in historical mysteries, Israeli history or Jewish mysteries, then this book is definitely for you.

Jeannette Walls

A Memoir

MORE THAN EIGHT YEARS ON THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER LIST

The extraordinary, one-of-a-kind, "nothing short of spectacular" (Entertainment Weekly) memoir from one of the world's most gifted storytellers.

The Glass Castle is a remarkable memoir of resilience and redemption, and a revelatory look into a family at once deeply dysfunctional and uniquely vibrant. When sober, Jeannette's brilliant and charismatic father captured his children's imagination, teaching them physics, geology, and how to embrace life fearlessly. But when he drank, he was dishonest and destructive. Her mother was a free spirit who abhorred the idea of domesticity and didn't want the responsibility of raising a family.

The Walls children learned to take care of themselves. They fed, clothed, and protected one another, and eventually found their way to New York. Their parents followed them, choosing to be homeless even as their children prospered.

The Glass Castle is truly astonishing--a memoir permeated by the intense love of a peculiar but loyal family.

The memoir was also made into a major motion picture from Lionsgate in 2017 starring Brie Larson, Woody Harrelson, and Naomi Watts.
