  From the Arthur Ellis Award–winning Grand Master of Crime Writers comes the next installment in the Joanne Kilbourn series
  		 
  When Joanne Shreve’s former student, Val Masluk, writes the biography of acclaimed novelist Steven Brooks, Val once again becomes part of Joanne’s life. The biography is already raising troubling questions about Brooks’s past, and the wedding of Brooks’s daughter and Joanne’s son is scheduled for the day before the biography is published.
  		 
  Both Joanne and her former student are haunted by memories of the seminar that led to the deaths of two people and the murder conviction of a third. The publication of the Brooks biography poses a threat not only to the future of the man and woman about to be married but also to the futures of those who love them. Joanne is certain that the threat is rooted in either her past or in that of Steven Brooks. The collateral damage caused by exposing that link will bring pain to both families, but life has taught Joanne that the only thing worse than knowing is not knowing.

  I made it home. But something came with me … 
  From hero to outcast. From saviour to biohazard … 
  As hollow victories go, this one is hard to beat. 
  When Driver and I saved Earth from the Anomaly's suffocating radiation, we thought it was all over. 
  Our triumphant return from the occupied alien world of Bayzen was supposed to draw a line under everything. 
  The problem is, we didn't come home alone. 
  No one has ever seen anything like this. 
  What they're calling it sends shivers down my spine: a parasitic alien pathogen. 
  It could be a virus, a toxin, or maybe something even worse. And believe me: what we don't know definitely can hurt us. 
  It's too late for me—I've been exposed. But this has never been about me. 
  It's going to take some incredible risks and another long-shot space mission to get to the bottom of this, but I'll fight until my last breath to undo the damage I've done. 
  As a horrible question echoes in my mind, I'll do anything to make sure the answer is the right one: 
  Am I Earth's last hope … or the man who sealed its fate?

  Eleanor Moss is eighty-four years old. She has lived in the same house for sixty years. Her husband, Harold, built the porch with his own hands. They raised two children, paid off the mortgage, and did everything America asked of them. She has paid $131,400 in property taxes on a house that cost $24,500. It isn't enough. When the county triples her assessment, Eleanor can't keep up. The notices pile up in a shoebox in her closet. She tells no one. She is not going to be a burden. By the time her granddaughter, Mel, finds the shoebox, the debt has been sold to an investor in Chicago. The foreclosure clock is running. And Eleanor has made a decision: she will die in her home before she lets them carry her out. The Hidden Rent follows one family's fight against a system designed to extract wealth from those who have the least. It follows the investor who approves a foreclosure in four seconds. The process server who knocks on the door and walks away. The councilwoman who cries but cannot act. The son paralyzed by shame. The daughter armed with solutions no one wants. And it follows Mel, who cannot save her grandmother's house - but refuses to let her grandmother's story disappear. A home paid for should be a home kept. This is the story of what happens when that promise breaks.

    Ron Green had made a mistake, but it wasn't one that millions of other guys hadn't made before him. And maybe he deserved some sort of punishment, like his wife leaving him or his kids hating his guts. But this? Being the main suspect in a single murder was bad enough, but at the same time knowing he was a potential victim of a serial killer was even worse. However, before Green could convince the cops of his innocence, he first had to convince them the serial killer existed, and now they weren't believing a thing he said.

  Against the wishes of her stepfather, Mary Sutherland has become engaged to Hosmer Angel. On the morning of their wedding Hosmer elicits a promise that Mary will remain faithful to him "even if something quite unforeseen" occurs, then mysteriously disappears en route to the church. Holmes deduces that Hosmer was Mary's stepfather in disguise, the charade a bid to keep Mary a spinster and thus maintain access to her inheritance. Holmes does not reveal the truth to Mary because "There is danger for him who taketh the tiger cub, and danger also for whoso snatches a delusion from a woman"; he had already advised her to put the matter behind her, though she responded that Hosmer "shall find me ready when he comes back."
