You Are Here (2023)
Karin Lin-Greenberg
"In her gorgeous debut novel You Are Here, Karin Lin-Greenberg shines her magical light on ordinary characters whose lives intersect at the local mall - the most ordinary place in America - to show how remarkable and singular those lives actually are. Every page carries the author's trademark fusion of poignancy, humor, insight, and yearning, along with the powerful reminder of how the seemingly random connections among us can lead to unexpected grace."

Book of Knives (2022)
Lise Haines
"Lise Haines' Book of Knives is an utterly absorbing, extremely suspenseful, and elegantly written literary ghost story. I was intrigued, and scared, and ultimately deeply moved by this compelling novel about family and the love that transcends death."

Little Comfort (2018)
(Hester Thursby Mystery, book 1)
Edwin Hill
"In his compelling debut, Edwin Hill spins layer upon layer of intrigue as Hester Thursby, in the business of finding people who don’t want to be found, takes on a job that turns out to be far more surprising and dangerous than she bargained for. This smart, complex, and suspenseful New England thriller will keep you turning pages far into the night."
