  🏺 The new "Curse of the Pharaohs" exhibit at the local museum is the talk of the town—until the lead curator is found dead in the sarcophagus of the main attraction, a recently unearthed mummy. The police are quick to call it a tragic accident, but museum archivist and part-time history professor Dr. Eliza Sands knows better. The scene is a perfect replica of an ancient Egyptian ritual murder, and the clues point to someone with intimate knowledge of both the museum and Egyptology. To uncover the truth, Eliza must decipher hieroglyphic hints and follow a trail of ancient artifacts and modern motives. With help from her clever cat, Anubis, and a handsome archaeologist who knows more about the mummy than he's letting on, Eliza uncovers a web of stolen artifacts, academic rivalry, and a family secret someone is willing to kill to protect. Can she solve this ancient puzzle before the killer decides to add another body to the exhibit?

  Gabriela Menchaca and Edwin Saucedo are hardworking, undocumented employees at the Detmer Foods chicken plant in Springdale, Arkansas, just a stone’s throw from the trailer park where they’ve lived together for seven years.  
   
  While dealing with personal tragedies of their own, the young couple endures the brutal, dehumanizing conditions at the plant in exchange for barebones pay. 
   
  When the plant manager, Luke Jackson, fires Edwin to set an example for the rest of the workers—and to show the higherups that he’s ready for a major promotion—Edwin is determined to get revenge on Luke and his wife, Mimi, a new mother who stays at home with her six-month-old son. Edwin’s impulsive action sets in motion a devastating chain of events that illuminates the deeply entrenched power dynamics between those who revel at the top and those who toil at the bottom. 
   
  From the nationally bestselling and Edgar Award–winning author of Don’t Know Tough and Ozark Dogs comes another edge-of-your-seat noir thriller that exposes the dark, bloody heart of life on the margins in the American South and the bleak underside of a bygone American Dream. 
   
  “Taut, harrowing, and charged with profound insight, Broiler pushes four unforgettable characters to the brim. What happens when hard work isn’t enough? Exploring class, ambition, mobility, and desire, Eli Cranor uses bolts of linguistic electricity to show how the things we want can sometimes blind us.”—Danya Kukafka, author of Notes on an Execution

  Is it a social experiment, a prison, or a tool for driving one man mad? 
  The dome city is all those things. For Ef and his followers in City of England, it’s a kind of laboratory, a place to test Ef’s theories about how to give humanity a new way forward. For the founders of the Happiness-Program, awakened from stasis, the dome city is a prison where they are fed bizarre lies about the state of the world. For Iris, the dome city is the perfect opportunity to take revenge on the man who assaulted her, distorting his perception of reality until he cracks under the strain. 
  For Owena and Pickle, the dome city is a curiosity at most. Owena’s childhood was stolen from her, and now she intends to take it back – one bad movie and bag of popcorn at a time.

  There is something about the number 3.  
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. 
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes. 
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
  From their pens to your your ears.
