  For retired San Diego detective Rick “Chase” Chasen, week-long walks in the English countryside are an enjoyable new pastime. But sometimes these outings take deadly detours… 
   
  Chase is disappointed that his partner Mike won’t be joining him on his tour of the rocky Cornish coast—but like long-distance walks, long-distance relationships can require an occasional break. He still has his friend Billie for company, though, and a few more fellow Americans, from a New Orleans restaurateur to a New York travel writer, joining them on their jaunt. 
   
  When the group hears before their departure that local landowners have been sabotaging the trail with booby-traps, their walk leader dismisses it as rumor—but some in the group are worried, especially after a terrifying incident on a bridge the very next morning. As they bravely continue their expedition, twelve-year-old chatterbox Ivy, who’s already spilled some of her mother’s secrets, continues gossiping to Chase about the group members. She’s been researching online and thinks they’re not all as they seem. When one of them nearly plunges to her death during a visit to a 16th-century castle, Ivy’s sure a killer walks among them. 
   
  That turns out to be a real possibility when the near miss is followed by a suspicious death during a meal break. Did a Cornish property owner take a prank too far? And is Ivy just a drama-obsessed internet addict, or is ignoring her warnings a fatal misstep? If murder is truly afoot, Chase will have to rely on his investigative wits to trip the killer up.

  Readers of Black Cake and Family Lore will be captivated by this sweeping, multicultural family story of keen observation and the supernatural in which one man’s journey to wholeness—both emotionally and physically—is shaped by the lands of his childhood and those of his ancestors, still reeling from the effects of colonialism and immigration. 
    
  Before the oracular gadèt-zafè came to warn his mother she would die, 6-year-old Fidel knew only the everyday mystery of the Guadeloupe around him. The lush greenery, the dusty roads, the sugar cane growing and the neighbors arguing, the push and pull of love and resentment between people who rely on each other—his world is small but full. Until a few moments of violence change his life forever. 
    
  Orphaned, Fidel returns to his mother’s native Dominica and whirls from one relative and reality to another, learning pieces of his own story. His heritage is one of layered secrets and sharp divisions—between the grandmothers who love him and the aunt who wants him dead, the Catholic orthodoxy of his school and the Obeah knowledge of his grandfather, and the indigenous and the colonial. The violence he’s witnessed inhabits not only strangers but himself. The spirits of the dead visit him with advice, threats, and explanations. And when he sees a path toward happiness in Canada, he must reconcile his intense, bittersweet love of his home with the possibility of leaving it. 
    
  “Tall Is Her Body is a memorable, generous, and vivid addition to a Caribbean lineage inaugurated by the likes of Kincaid, Selvon, Roumain and Lovelace. Tender and unsparing, de la Chevotière’s triumphant entrance more than meets the bill. A soaring work.”—Canisia Lubrin, acclaimed poet, editor, and author

At the beginning of the twentieth century, Europe is in the grip of bitter and bloody war.

But Robert Preston flees America and joins the French Army to escape heartbreak. Placed in the elite 5th Aeronautic Corps, he learns to use high-tech jetpacks to leap over trenches—and the deadly no man’s land between them. It’s a dangerous job with a low survival rate, but Preston is determined to make a difference.  There, he meets a man he calls his best friend, and a woman he believes is the love of his life. But a top-secret mission behind enemy lines, and a heart full of jealousy, threatens to tear the three of them apart forever.

  He will do whatever it takes to save himself. 
  Their marriage is the last hope for peace. 
  In a world where mortals and Olympians are at war, Hebe has only known suffering. Her fate changes completely, though, when she goes to the altar to sacrifice herself for the sake of her village. Suddenly, she is wed to a god who dislikes her almost as much as she can't stand him. However, their marriage might just be the one thing that can prove peace is possible between their peoples . . . if they don't kill each other first. 
  Prometheus is fighting on the wrong side. That is, the one that isn't the most beneficial to him. Before he can free himself from the one immortal campaigning for humanity, though, he finds himself bound to the most frustrating of mortals. He has no intention of making their marriage work as he plays the long game. But when they are sent to Olympus in search of a new weapon Zeus intends to release on the mortals, Prometheus sees his chance to steal a new life for himself. That is, if his new wife doesn't steal his heart first. But only the most foolish of immortals lets themselves fall in love. And only complete and utter folly could drive anyone to steal from the King of Olympus himself . . .
