  The Tyler Garrett scandal rocked the Spokane Police Department two years ago. Now, a consent decree governs the agency with Washington D.C. directing its reform. It’s a tumultuous time in the city, and public outcry over local and national events is high. 
   Change is in the air. 
   Officer Lee Salter is a third-generation cop who bleeds blue. Amid the departmental chaos, he does the only thing he can—be a good officer. That means showing up for every shift, responding to calls for service, and always doing the right thing. All the while, the Department of Justice and its local supporters hope to catch another officer in its net of reform. 
   Salter refuses to be that officer. 
   Melody Weaver is a teacher and activist who believes in a better way. Despite her demanding profession, she dedicates herself to the cause of reshaping policing in her city so that the terrible events—both local and national—can stop. To understand what needs to change, she needs to see the reality of the job up close. 
   That means a ride-along on the graveyard shift. 
   One night. 
   Two people. 
   And a nation’s problems.

  A grieving doctor fights back against the world’s growing inhumanity… 
  “Rubin’s revenge thriller is fast-paced and full of plenty of unexpected twists and turns…a true page-turner”—Kirkus Reviews  
  To her Boston patients, Dr. Hope Sullivan is a conscientious doctor with a caring bedside manner. To her victims, she is a fierce protector of those who have been wronged. After losing everyone close to her, these revenge “tune-ups” are the only thing that make her feel...well...feel anything at all.  
  Until one day, a mysterious email threatens to expose her. I know what ur doing, it says.  
  At first, Hope ignores the electronic stalking, but when the threats become increasingly personal, she knows she must act. It isn’t until the stalker gives Hope a taste of her own medicine that she uncovers a far greater danger, both to herself and to the patients she cares for. 
  Content Warning: This book contains references to suicide and grief that might be triggering to some readers.

  Four years ago, a young heiress survived an attack that claimed the lives of both her parents. The crime made headlines all over Los Angeles, both for the vicious nature of the killings and the seemingly random nature of the attack: nothing was stolen, and the van Aust family had no obvious enemies. Melia van Aust fled the city soon after the murders—which were never solved—but her brother Jasper has not been seen since. After a childhood spent in the shadow of her famous parents, Rainey Hall understands dysfunctional families. She still hasn’t recovered from a tragedy that tore her own family apart six years earlier. It's part of why she started her own private investigation agency—to aid victims of crimes that might otherwise go unsolved. When Melia returns to LA and moves back into her family home, someone begins sending her increasingly violent messages that allude to her parents' murders. She hires Rainey to track down the culprit and find her missing brother. Touched by their similarities, Rainey feels compelled to protect Melia, even as their relationship becomes more than professional. Soon, Rainey finds herself falling down the rabbit hole of Melia’s life. Her quest to find Melia’s stalker will bring her in contact with disgraced royals, seedy neighbors, violent ex-boyfriends, and former staff—each one with their own secrets. As the threats against Melia escalate and the two women are drawn together, it’s only a matter of time before another victim turns up...

  Normally, spooky season is Bailey Briggs's favorite time of year, and her Halloween-themed small town's time to shine. But between managing Lazy Bones Books, working on her graphic novel-in-progress, and running the Spooky Season Literary Festival, Bailey hardly has a moment to enjoy Elyan Hollow's spot-on seasonal vibes. Not to mention, at every turn she seems to be tripping over the contentious crew of Gone Ghouls, a ghost-hunting reality TV show currently filming around town. Bailey tries to stay focused on the Lit Festival, which is supposed to kick off Elyan Hollow's annual Halloween Fair; instead, this year's festival begins with a murder . . . 
   
   
   
  It's bad enough Bailey discovered the victim, but now, as a lead suspect with some (admittedly) damning evidence pointing her way, she's got to clear her name! With the help of her librarian friend, Colby, and Jack Skeleton, her world-class bookshop dog (and the absolute bestest boy ever), Bailey sets out to solve a murder . . . 
   
   
   
  As her investigation weaves through family secrets, professional rivalries, and town feuds, the list of suspects is growing fast . . . and unfortunately, so is the list of victims. If Bailey doesn't find the killer soon, Elyan Hollow's haunted reputation will get a little too real . . .

  My name is Nora Black. I'm fifty-six years old, and I'm having the midlife adventure of my life. 
   
   
   
  I'm all set for the ultimate winter escape: an adults-only cruise with my sweetheart Ezra, and my best friends Gilly and Pippa, along with their husbands. We are ready to hit the high seas for sun, fun, and definitely no crime-solving. The plan is simple . . . cocktails, sunsets, and endless laughter. 
   
   
   
  But you know what they say about the best-laid plans . . . 
   
   
   
  When one of our tablemates ends up face down in the hydrotherapy pool, it's looking more and more likely his suspicious death will be declared an accidental drowning. 
   
   
   
  But my psychic nose says otherwise—this is murder. 
   
   
   
  Now, with the clock ticking before we reach foreign soil, I'll have to use my aroma mojo to sniff out the truth. It looks like it's up to us to unravel the mystery before the killer gets away with murder. 
   
   
   
  So much for smooth sailing!

  The Mission is a sweeping historical investigation into the rise and global influence of American intelligence and covert operations. Spanning more than a century, the book traces how U.S. military and intelligence agencies extended their reach far beyond the battlefield, shaping foreign policy through coups, propaganda, surveillance, and secret interventions. From World War I to the War on Terror, it explores how ideals of democracy were often compromised by the realities of power, leaving a complex legacy of ambition, overreach, and unintended consequences.
