  In this third book of the Maria series, young attorney Luke Smith enlists the help of Maria, now 16, to find his ex-fiancée Becca and her baby daughter who he thinks may be his. Mother and daughter are in the Philippines with the rogue federal agent Brent Danes, the man who broke up Luke's engagement to Becca through a series of missteps and accidental encounters. 
  Are Brent and Becca now together, together, or are they just two friends with big troubles helping each other out? Maria arranges a missionary trip to Manila to give Luke cover to travel discreetly. Luke needs to find Becca without outing Danes' location to the authorities. 
  Luke's hunt for his ex-fiancée and possible daughter begin to merge with events of the missionary trip raising the stakes for several of the players. Can Luke stay out of the crosshairs of the feds looking to catch Danes, while at the same time not break Becca's rules that he must follow if he wants to meet his possible child? 
  Meanwhile, Brent Danes needs to walk the tightrope of working with a Russian operative who is his current benefactor, without being forced to work for him. 
  If you've read books one and two, The Timing of Maria and The Gone Side of the Fence, this third installment will bring the excitement and suspense to even greater levels. Valentyna: The Foreign Connection, is also a thrilling stand-alone book.

  On the Subject of Blackberries

  Winner of the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in Poetry 
  Welcome to the garden. Here we poison our fruits, pierce ourselves with thorns, and transform under the light of the full moon. Mad and unhinged, we fall through rabbit holes, walk willingly into fairy rings, and dance in the song of witchcraft, two snakes around our ankles, the juice of berries on our tongues. 
  Inspired by Shirley Jackson’s We Have Always Lived in the Castle, these poems are meditations on female rage, postpartum depression, compulsion, and intrusive thoughts. They pull from periods of sleep deprivation, soul exhaustion, and nightmarish delusions, and each is left untitled, a nod to the stream-of-conscious mind of a new mother. 
  Using found poetry and under the influence of bibliomancy, Wytovich harnesses the occult power of her imagery and words and aligns it with a new, more vulnerable, darkness. These pieces are not only visions of the madwoman in the attic, but ghostly visitations that explore the raw mental torture women sometimes experience after giving birth. 
  This collection heals as much as it scars, and is an honest look at how trauma seeps into the soil of our bodies. Her poems are imagined horrors, fictional fears, and all the unspoken murmurs of a mind lost between reality and dream. What she leaves in her wake is nothing short of horror—the children lost, the garden dead, the women feral, ready to pounce.

  From the author of The Baudelaire Fractal, a poetry classic, with new work
  		 
  In 2004, boldly original poet Lisa Robertson published a chapbook, Rousseau’s Boat, poems culled from years of notebooks that are, nevertheless, by no means autobiographical. In 2010, she expanded the work into a full-length book, R’s Boat. During the pandemic, she was drawn back into decades of journals to shape Boat. These poems bring fresh vehemence to Robertson’s ongoing examination of the changing shape of feminism, the male-dominated philosophical tradition, the daily forms of discourse, and the possibilities of language itself.
