  Deep in the heart of touristy small-town Spirit Canyon, South Dakota, former journalist Zo Jones runs the Happy Camper gift shop, where she sells everything from locally made souvenirs to memorabilia. She even rents out mountain bikes and dabbles in the adventure industry—and sleuthing. 
   
   
    
  It's Memorial Day weekend in Spirit Canyon, and for Zo that means the return of summer shoppers. It also means the return of her good friend Beth, who's moved back to the area to reopen her family's hotel, Spirit Canyon Lodge. Beth and Zo spent many childhood summers there and Zo can't wait to reconnect and celebrate the Grand Opening. But the festivities go from bad to worse when a power outage knocks out the lights—and morning reveals a competitor's dead body found on the premises. 
   
   
    
  Soon enough, Beth is the prime suspect in the suspicious death. Fortunately, Zo isn't afraid to put her investigative skills to work and prove her friend's innocence. To start digging for information, she appeals to Max Harrington, a local Forest Ranger and unlikely ally. Though they've argued about Happy Camper's tours, they agree on one thing: Beth isn't a murderer. Stranger things have happened than their collaboration. But as the list of suspects grows, Zo will have to keep her guard up if she doesn't want to be the next lodge guest to check out . . .

  Truth is like a lens we apply to everything we see, it is malleable and transformative, we can bend it, mould it, shape it, vanish it. We do this to present the versions of ourselves we want the world to see, and to hide the versions we can't bear to reveal. 
   
  Newly returned to Western Australia, journalist Amy Rhinehart pitches a crime podcast to increase her radio station's ratings. Her idea: to use the listeners of the show as its co-creators, with live-time calls and suggestion boards. The case: Jonah Scott, charged and imprisoned for life for the murder of his girlfriend, transgender woman Casey Williams. 
  Jonah went to great lengths to hide the body - but when arrested, confessed immediately and pleaded guilty, negating the need for a trial. Amy believes there is something darker at the heart of this case and sets about finding the truth, investigating a world of drugs, sex, gender identity and religious cults. 
  Threaded through the main narrative, the podcast transcripts represent a story-within-a-story, exploring the characters of Jonah and Casey and the relationship between them, interwoven with Amy's investigation into the cult run by Jonah's family and its potential involvement in Casey's murder.

  The Return

  He came back. He's polling well. 
  When a man calling himself Emmanuel walks into a failing presidential campaign and claims to be Jesus Christ returned, Sen. George Matthews stops losing. The miracles are real. The base ignites. A long-foretold prophecy appears fulfilled. And the people closest to the candidate begin to disagree about what they are actually witnessing. 
  As Emmanuel bends Scripture to justify immigration raids, the death penalty, and the relentless pursuit of power, chief aide Simon Fuller, Rev. Patricia Mitchell, and staffer Thomas Reid are pulled toward the same question from different directions: when faith and ambition speak in the same voice, how do you tell salvation from manipulation? 
  Drawing its structure from the Stations of the Cross, The Return is a political thriller about the slow, willing surrender of conscience, and about how a movement that has already chosen to believe responds to anyone who asks it to doubt. 
  For readers of Leif Enger, Nicole Cuffy, and Garrard Conley.
