  In the darkest corners of crime, it's the game that decides who lives and who dies. 
  When your cover is an illusion and your life hangs by a thread, every card counts. Janice, masquerading as Cynthia Quan, faces her most daunting challenge yet—a high-stakes game with deadly players and even deadlier stakes. Invited by a madman known as "The Joker," she’s not just risking her cover but her very existence. 
  In this twisted web of deceit and danger, a room filled with familiar faces might be her undoing. An enigmatic ringleader, an unknown treasure, and an ominous final showdown await around the poker table. The Joker's maniacal game is laced with taunts, terror, and treachery—one misstep, and it’s over. 
  As alliances falter and tensions rise, Janice must rely on all her skills to navigate a perilous path between shadowy organizations and ruthless adversaries. But when two bullets silence the room, the real game begins. Amidst chaos and cunning, Janice discovers the ultimate gamble isn’t for money or jewels, but survival itself. 
  Welcome to the Solitaire Series’ most chilling episode yet. In this world, luck is fickle, trust is scarce, and every decision could be your last. Can Janice outwit the Joker and seize control, or will she become just another casualty in this lethal deck of cards? Listen if you dare, but remember: the stakes are life, death, and whatever lies beyond the vault door.

  Jim Yarrow, a wounded World War II vet, sees his luck change when he finds work as a police officer. He now thrives in his beloved hometown on the Merrimack River. Content with his job, his long-term friendships, and his wife and kids, he never expected the girl he loved in high school to reappear in his life. 
  Becky Bivens fled Riverbend, Massachusetts, in 1941, after her mother’s crimes were exposed. She’s lived a hardscrabble life ever since, and those struggles now help her understand her mother’s troubling choices. 
  In 1951, Becky returns, intent on building a simple produce stand on the land where she once lived. She intends to raise bees, sell honey, and restore her shattered life, while also helping other displaced women. 
  Riverbend, like many small towns, is entering a period of great economic expansion, while still recovering from a war that wreaked death and havoc on soldiers and families. However, the town’s growth comes with strict social rules and crippling class divisions. The war widows and homeless people who find refuge at Becky’s farm become social outcasts who face unsettling choices. Becky turns a blind eye to the "services" some of them offer as they squat on her property. 
  Local Honey is a story of America’s haves vs have-nots. It’s part love triangle, part class struggle, and part dreamy window into the lost New England of the 1950s. The backdrop includes seashore towns, rural farms, the gritty slums of Boston, and brief flashbacks of battlefields. 
  In a community that should be basking in the “winner’s aftermath” of a terrible war, all should be good for everyone. But it isn’t.

  Shawn P. McCarthy is a Massachusetts-based author who explores the history of New England’s mountains, lakes, rivers, and seashores.

  From the Arthur Ellis Award–winning Grand Master of Crime Writers comes the next installment in the Joanne Kilbourn series
  		 
  When Joanne Shreve’s former student, Val Masluk, writes the biography of acclaimed novelist Steven Brooks, Val once again becomes part of Joanne’s life. The biography is already raising troubling questions about Brooks’s past, and the wedding of Brooks’s daughter and Joanne’s son is scheduled for the day before the biography is published.
  		 
  Both Joanne and her former student are haunted by memories of the seminar that led to the deaths of two people and the murder conviction of a third. The publication of the Brooks biography poses a threat not only to the future of the man and woman about to be married but also to the futures of those who love them. Joanne is certain that the threat is rooted in either her past or in that of Steven Brooks. The collateral damage caused by exposing that link will bring pain to both families, but life has taught Joanne that the only thing worse than knowing is not knowing.
