April Henry recommends
Dead Below Deck (2024)
Jan Gangsei
"Dead Below Deck is twisty and thrilling! I read the whole thing on a single plane ride, desperately turning the pages. It's also so much more than just a mystery - an examination of wealth and privilege, a critique of our social-media obsessed culture, and even a look at the aftermath of combat.' -"
That's Not My Name (2023)
Megan Lally
"Secrets. Lies. Betrayal. Get ready for a roller coaster ride where nothing is what it seems. That's Not My Name begs to be read in a single adrenaline-fueled sitting."
