John McMahon recommends

When Cicadas Cry (2024)
Caroline Cleveland
"A twisty narrative of secrets and lies, I flew through When Cicadas Cry in a day. A haunting case from the past. A racially tinged murder in the present. And a small South Carolina town about to erupt like a powder keg. Equal parts courtroom thriller and gripping mystery."
thumb
Hollywood Hustle (2024)
Jon Lindstrom
"Lindstrom delivers a wild ride in technicolor."
thumb
Above the Rain (2021)
Víctor del Árbol
"A dark, vividly descriptive tale of two complicated people whose troubled pasts motivate a road trip full of winding turns, unexpected plot twists, and retribution. Adeptly plotted, an examination of our own pasts, of what we cannot change about them, and what we do with the time we have left."
