Sunsetter - A Novel

Curtis LeBlanc

Sinopsis

A fast-paced literary thriller that peels back the layers of small-town police corruption, drugs, and teen disillusionment to expose unlikely heroes and unexpected villains
		 
When two teens, Dallan and Hannah, attend the opening night of the infamous Sunsetter rodeo, they find themselves entangled in the suspicious deaths of their two closest loved ones. Driven by loss, rage, and their gut instincts for justice, they channel their grief and confusion into uncovering the criminal truth about their small town of Perron, a prairie community that has been long deserted by industry, leaving a ghostly emptiness of abandoned gravel pits, golf courses, and storefronts. They soon discover that Perron — with its population of bored and discontented youth, as well as police officers who are only looking out for themselves — is the ideal place for a mysterious and omnipresent drug trade to flourish. Soon enough, Dallan and Hannah are being tailed by Deputy Arnason, who has been tasked with protecting the reputation of the local police, even as his conscience screams in protest with every move he makes.
		 
Equal parts crime novel and literary fiction, Sunsetter is an unflinching story about the opioid crisis, teen isolation, police brutality, and the fickleness of late-stage capitalism.

The Hostage

A.F. Carter

In this new thriller from the author of The Yards, a cop tracks the kidnapped teenage daughter of a wealthy developer in a transitioning Rust Belt town. 
 
 
 
A new Nissan plant is coming to the depressed Rust Belt town of Baxter, and Captain Delia Mariola has been busy cleaning up the crime-addled city ever since the deal was announced. But when the fifteen-year-old daughter of the lead bidder on the construction project—a wealthy out-of-towner—suddenly disappears, and it becomes clear that a professional kidnapping ring may be responsible, Delia realizes that the factory's influx of cash could bring with it an entirely new sort of danger, never before considered in this working class milieu. 
 
 
 
Though Elizabeth's abduction was well-planned and bearing the mark of an experienced team, her captors could not have anticipated the quick and clever brilliance of the exceptionally smart teen. From the trunk of the car where she is held, she soon devises a clever trick to get cryptic messages to those who love her back down the highway in Baxter. The only problem is that the messages might be too cryptic even for their recipients to decipher. If Delia has any hope of bringing the girl home unharmed, she'll have to crack the code and discover the meaning behind the message. And unless she does it fast, there may be nobody left to save . . .

The Blood of Birds - A King...

Jay Bailey

A historically-grounded thriller about the dangerous cost of justice, the weight of an oath, and the thin line between sanctuary and prison.  
In the shadow of King David's rising throne, as fractured tribes struggle toward nationhood, a new institution takes form: the city of refuge – part sanctuary, part courthouse, part cage.  
Two men. Two murders. One impossible alliance. Bound by separate tragedies and driven by overlapping vengeance, they forge a wary partnership built on lies neither can afford to expose.  
Around them moves a cast caught in their own desperate gambles: a wounded Philistine warrior clinging to vanished glory, a pregnant bride enduring silent brutality, and a priest's daughter digging toward freedom. Each navigates a rapidly changing society, ancient in its patriarchy yet ruthlessly pragmatic in its survival.  
From blood-soaked shepherd hills to Jerusalem's rising walls to Shechem's protected quarter, The Blood of Birds pulls back the gate on what these sacred cities truly were – their markets and night watches, their whispered bargains and iron-bound oaths, their collision of divine law and human desperation.
