  For years Jorie Camden has been quietly helping her police friends pursue cold cases. She's paid the price over and over again, her talent for Finding stretched to the limit. Now something different is stalking the streets, taking children—something old, and foul, and Dark. The cops won't admit there's a problem, so what can a Lightbringer do but solve the mystery on her own?
  Caleb is a Watcher of Circle Lightfall, and his mission is simple: protect the witch he's assigned to—the witch who just happens to be able to touch him without causing agonizing pain. It's his one shot at redemption, and it'll take every weapon he has, plus his willingness to play dirty. Even if his witch seems to be chasing something no one can see.
  Yet something Dark is indeed in their city. And now that it's aware of pursuit, it has plans for Jorie and her talent—plans not even Caleb might be able to stop . . .

  Description：
  Everyone believes Robin Maddox is fragile — a soft-spoken survivor of a brutal childhood, saved by the powerful man who adores her.
  
  When the girl who once tormented Robin walks free, Robin's fiancé Adrian Kane swears vengeance on her behalf. But vengeance curdles. Adrian's certainty wavers, the bully whispers poison, and soon Robin finds herself the one accused of lying, locked away while her tormentor takes her place.
  
  Adrian thinks he's holding all the power. He has no idea the quiet, trembling woman in his house has been three moves ahead of him from the day they met — and that every tear, every flinch, every plea is a weight on a scale she alone controls.
  
  A glacial, jaw-dropping psychological revenge novel about a woman the world underestimated, and the terrible patience of someone with nothing left to lose.

  World's Edge - A haunting...

  James Sallis' collection of five novellas.
  'James Sallis is a superb writer ' - Times
  James Sallis' World's Edge presents five masterful novellas—Dayenu, Carriers, Settlers, Allotments, and Reconstruction—exploring fractured societies, human resilience, and the fragile intersections of morality and survival. Sallis's prose, as sharp as it is evocative, captures the nuances of his dystopian and near-future settings, resonating with themes of dislocation and identity. Widely regarded as a pivotal voice in contemporary US fiction, Sallis's work aligns with literary giants such as Cormac McCarthy and Denis Johnson, weaving the poetic bleakness of the former with the incisive character studies of the latter. These stories draw readers into a world both intimate and unyielding, where existential questions lurk beneath stark, elegant narratives.
