  DISCOVER A BREATHLESSLY TWISTY NEW THRILLER, FROM A BESTSELLING AUTHOR. 
   
  The truth can be a bitter pill . . . 
   
  Michelle will never get tired of the view from her office window. Jagged mountains - and the wintry streets of Reykjavik, Iceland. It's a perk of her new job at Kimia Pharmaceuticals. 
   
  Her old life - a dreary 9-to-5 and a cheating ex back in London - already feels a million miles away. 
   
  Still, there's something strange about Michelle's new colleagues. They're all young, beautiful . . . and aloof. But then Michelle meets Lars, a jittery researcher from the restricted upper floors. 
   
  She thinks she's alone in the elevator, until he squeezes between the doors. Just in time. The elevator whirs into action - and judders to a sickening halt. 
   
  That's when it happens. Lars locks eyes with Michelle. Thrusts a folder into her hands. 
   
  This is evidence. Hide it . . . I discovered something and I'll be silenced because of it. 
   
  Michelle's already run from her past. This time, she'll be running for her life . . .

  “Mixing Romance and Mystery in a Fizzy 1930s Cocktail!” 
  In this seventh book of the series, Clive and Henrietta return to England to find Castle Linley in financial ruin. When Clive’s cousin, Wallace, invites an estate agent in to assess the home’s value, the agent is later found poisoned, throwing all of the Castle’s guests into suspicion. Clive and Henrietta are soon drawn into an investigation, which is slowed by an incompetent local inspector and several unexplained phenomena―the cause of which many, especially the frail Lady Linley, believe to be the workings of the ghost of a hanged maid. 
  Meanwhile, Gunther and Elsie have begun life on a farm in Omaha. Circumstances are difficult, but they are content―until Oldrich Exely appears, proposing an option Elsie finds difficult to ignore. Melody Merriweather, still masquerading as a nun to aid Elsie’s escape, likewise finds it difficult to ignore a letter with tragic news from home, while Julia, on the other hand, receives a very different sort of letter from Glenn Forbes. 
  Back in England, Clive is called away to London on suspicious business, leaving Henrietta to carry on with the investigation alone. When she is mysteriously locked in the study one night, however, things take on a more deadly, supernatural feel, leaving her to fear that Lady Linley's “ghost” might just be real after all…

  “A deliciously insider-y peek into the music industry and fame — Layden has a gift for making the world and her characters feel wonderfully real. You won’t be able to put it down.” -- Rufi Thorpe, author of Margo's Got Money Troubles 
  A propulsive, ""immersive"" (Washington Post) novel about the meteoric rise of a legendary pop star and the secret she’s kept hidden for fifteen years, for fans of Megan Abbott and Daisy Jones & the Six. 
  Everyone in America knows Dylan Read, or at least has heard her music. Since releasing her debut album her senior year of high school, Dylan’s spent fifteen years growing up in the public eye. She’s not only perfected her skills when it comes to lyrics and melody; she’s also learned how to craft a public narrative that satisfies her fans, her label, and the media. In the circles of fame and celebrity in which she now travels, the careful maintenance of Dylan Read pop star is often more important than the songs themselves. 
  And so lots of people think they understand everything about Dylan Read. But what no one knows is the part of her origin story she has successfully kept hidden: her childhood best friend Kelsey vanished the year before Dylan became famous. Now, as Dylan’s at the height of her career, Kelsey’s body is found at the bottom of their hometown lake—forcing Dylan to reckon with their shared past, her friend’s influence on her music, and whether there’s more to their story than meets the eye. 
  Layered, page-turning, and psychologically astute, Once More from the Top is a riveting and keenly observant novel about friendship, ambition, and the cost of fame.
