Phantom

Kfir Luzzatto

Tessa never trained as a ghostbuster, but that doesn't stop her from taking a mission involving one. 
Tessa's well-deserved vacation on the island after her last adventure doesn't last. Being the top agent in her organization comes with a price, and her services are soon needed to help an important supporter of the telepaths' cause with a peculiar problem: a death threat that may or may not have something to do with the house ghost. 
"I don't believe in ghosts," I said. I didn't, but the idea still gave me a shiver along the spine, so I had to say that out loud. 
I didn't have to read the entire dossier to understand that I had been chosen for Mission Impossible. Besides McIntosh himself, the house was infested by an incredible assortment of people; those included family members of all kinds, as well as permanent guests, occasional guests, house staff, and a couple of dogs who were the only ones I felt like writing off my list of potential murderers. I dropped the dossier on the table as instructed and added a sticky note on top of it, on which I drew a sad emoji.

Welcome Martians

Evan Hunter

Welcome Martians by Evan Hunter - Only one question seemed important in this huge space venture: Who was flying where?
The only sound was the swish of the jets against the sand as the big ship came down. Slowly, nose pointed skyward, a yellow tail streaming out behind the tubes, it settled to the ground like a cat nuzzling its haunches against a velvet pillow.
Dave Langley peered through the viewport.
"I feel kind of funny," he said.
A tremor of excitement flooded through Cal Manners' thin frame. "Mars," he whispered. "We made it."
Gently, the fins probed the sand, poking into it. Cal cut the power and the big ship shuddered and relaxed, a huge metal spider with a conical head.
Cal peered through the viewport, his eyes scanning the planet. Behind him, Dave shrugged into a space suit, gathered up his instruments.
"I'll make the tests," Dave said. "Keep the starboard guns trained on me."
Cal nodded. He walked Dave to the airlock and lifted the toggles on the inner hatch. Dave stepped into the small chamber, and Cal snapped the hatch shut.
He walked quickly to the starboard guns, wiggled into the plastic seat behind them and pitched his shoulders against the braces. Outside, like a grotesque balloon, Dave stumbled around on weighted feet, taking his readings.
What's out there? Cal wondered. Just exactly what?
He tightened his grip on the big blasters, and trained the guns around to where Dave puttered in the sand. Dave suddenly stood erect, waved at Cal, and started lumbering back toward the ship. Cal left the guns and went to the airlock. He stepped into the chamber closed the toggles on the hatch behind him, and twirled the wheel on the outer hatch. He was ready to move back into the ship again when Dave stepped through the outer hatch, his helmet under his arm.

Before Crown and Kingdom

Melissa Wright

Freedom was more treacherous than she ever imagined. 
Nimona Weston’s debts are paid. Her contract with the dark society known as the Trust is broken. But the magical ties that bind her to a long-ago bargain are rooted deep. 
She’s thrust back into the life she’d been forced from as a girl and now her every move is under the watchful eye of the king. A king who wants her dead. But fate has plans of its own and Nim is helpless to stop them, even as the future of the kingdom is placed in her hands. 
Magical contracts, blood-debt accountants, and a deadly game. An epic fantasy with regency flair, an improper and slightly stabby heroine with a penchant for trouble, clean, slow burn romance, and a dark and twisty plot that pits magic against kings, love against power, and a gothic underworld against a kingdom desperate to survive. Perfect for fans of Sorcery of Thorns and The Shadows Between Us.
