Sinossi

This is a story of love between a father and a son.
13-year-old Ved is a sweet, inquisitive boy living in a world where love must hide in plain sight. His adoptive father, Da, is his entire universe — fiercely loving, fiercely protective, harbouring a secret that could destroy them both: Da is gay at a time when Section 377 makes homosexuality a crime. Set in an Indian metropolis in 2013, Da is a tender story of a boy caught between devotion and fear, chronicling the everyday courage it takes to love someone the world refuses to accept.

    Thirty years ago, Sean Coleman's father abandoned his family in the Colorado mountain town of Winston, and was never heard from again. The reason for his disappearance was always a mystery, but a lifetime of blaming himself put Sean on a rough, dark path that took him years to return from. Now content in his life, Sean receives unexpected word that his father has finally reemerged, on the other side of the country in Pawleys Island, South Carolina. . .as a murder victim.
    
    At the wishes of his sister, Sean flies out to retrieve the body, and hopefully find answers to why his father left, and the life he went on to lead. What Sean discovers is a second family, a web of deception, and a brutal killer who's still on the loose. . .and isn't finished killing.

    Rob and the rest of the SIPS (Society for Investigative Paranormal Study) are eager to spend the holidays at the Dead End Inn, a bed and breakfast where a supernatural encounter is guaranteed. When they arrive, though, and find that the inn's proprietor, a certain former Decrypter with a professor boyfriend, has booked a second band of ghost hunters, friendly rivalry threatens to spill into outright hostility.
    To make matters worse, Rob can't stop thinking about a member of the rival group, Edward. And despite trying to stay focused on the job, it seems like fate, or perhaps the resident mischievous ghost, is determined that the two men spend time alone together in rather distracting circumstances. Will Rob be able to help the SIPS find their first proof of the paranormal, or will it be he and Edward who end up going bump in the night?

    In a city powered by the harvested flesh of chained monsters, isolation is the only armor. But some secrets refuse to stay buried. 
    Lyra Lighthaven has survived the plague pits and the brutal ecclesiastical machine of Veyruhn by perfecting the art of invisibility. As a master funeral embroiderer in the subterranean cathedral ward, she sews mourning veils for the city's elite, never asking where the holy beast-oil in her lamps comes from, and never looking twice at the calcified bone architecture that encloses her world. 
    Her fragile, meticulously constructed sanctuary shatters the night Lord Gared Greymantle forces a terrifying commission upon her: the clandestine restoration of an ancient, aristocratic wedding shroud. The fabric is unnaturally warm. The dark, sprawling embroidery is woven entirely from fine, living human hair. And the moment Lyra pierces the cursed silk with her needle, she awakens a devastating phantom resonance—and a horrific vision of a vanished bride. 
    Threads of the Beast pulls listeners into a breathtaking nightmare of dark fantasy and gothic horror. As the hereditary magic of the shroud demands a new sacrifice, Lyra realizes that a young commoner girl has been abducted to wear it. Caught between the ruthless ambition of an untouchable patriarch and the agonizing cries of the chained beasts that power the city, Lyra can no longer simply look away. 
    Step into the macabre, breathtaking world of The Cathedral Bestiary. Survival will require more than a steady hand—it will demand an absolute, bloody rebellion.

    Don’t miss this totally unputdownable psychological crime thriller, guaranteed to have readers up all night turning the pages! Perfect for fans of Frieda McFadden, Daniel Hurst and Lisa Jewell. 
    Would you invite a stranger in? 
    When Megan loses her beloved husband in a tragic car accident, she feels like it’s her own life that has ended. She feels too young to be a widow. Walking around the house that had been their home – so quiet without him – nothing feels the same. 
    But at his funeral, she sees a person she doesn’t know. The heavily-pregnant young woman introduces herself as Emily, her husband’s estranged sister. She explains how she’s been searching for her brother for years, but – as she bursts into noisy sobs – she knows she’s too late now. 
    Megan finds herself taking pity on the sister-in-law she’d never met. And quickly Emily becomes more and more a part of her life, even moving into the spare room of her house. 
    It feels less empty than before, which at first is comforting to Megan. But – even when it’s a relative of the man you loved more than anyone – can you trust a stranger?Readers are loving The Sister in Law:
