  Sarah Golden and Jackie Larsen promised their partners they were out of the detective business. They declared “game over” after both of them almost lost their lives trying to solve their last medical mystery, and they’re happy with that decision: Sarah has finally allowed love and romance into her life, Jackie’s marriage is solid, and Jackie’s son, Wyatt, is still doing great with his year-old kidney transplant.So when they go on their dream trip to Cuba, they are not looking for trouble. But all their plans go out the window when a desperate plea from a Cuban transplant surgeon puts the duo in serious danger with the Cuban government on the same day the four most prominent immunologists in the world—doctors who were on the verge of solving the huge rejection issues that have plagued the transplant community for over fifty years—are killed in a car accident in Chicago.Soon, Sarah and Jackie find themselves dragged into the bowels of investigating venture capitalists and corporate greed—a terrain they know nothing about. As they uncover suspect clinical trials at major US transplant centers, including Sarah’s, their usual friends Biker Bob and Officer Handsome aren’t able to help them much, but they do receive assistance from an unlikely source: Sergio, who they helped to land in prison in Florida (and who is trying to win back his girlfriend), offers his help from the inside. Sarah and Jackie are armed with smarts, humor, and enough persistence to help them face the white-collared demons of corporate America—but with dangerous players gunning for them and death threats being made against their families, will they be able to solve this mystery before someone else gets hurt?

  The Jonathon Island series is created by USA Today bestselling, award-winning author Susan May Warren. 
  The last thing she needs is for some big-city know-it-all to destroy everything she loves… 
  Tourism director Dani Sullivan is desperate to save her island home from bankruptcy—and that means rebuilding the Grand Sullivan Hotel, a once-glorious hotel that burned to the ground ten years ago. And, in the aftermath, tore apart her family. So yes, she’ll bring in an outside developer to help ignite the project. But his too-modern, out-of-touch vision isn’t at all what Jonathon Island needs…or is it? 
  It’s his last chance to get everything he wants…and she’s standing in the way. 
  Architect Liam Stone isn’t a fan of small towns located in the middle of nowhere. But when his about-to-retire father hands him the assignment to rebuild the Grand, it’s his chance to prove he can take over the company. Only problem—the stubborn tourism director-slash-protector of Jonathon Island refuses to see things his way. 
  Maybe Liam can change her mind. Except Dani’s plan is the same. Change Liam’s mind, make him see what he might be missing. Hopefully without getting her heart involved. 
  And when another builder shows up with big plans…suddenly Liam sees what’s at stake, and it isn’t only the Grand Hotel. But is it too late to save everything he’s started to love? 
  It’s a battle for the future of Jonathon Island in this heartwarming fish-out-of-water, rivals, and fresh-starts small-town romance, the first in the Jonathon Island series. 
    
  Great for fans of: 
  City mouse/country mouse (or big-city guy, small-town girl) 
  Opposites attract 
  Fish out of water 
  Reluctant ally

  “Speedy, exhilarating, and smooth. Nobody does it better.” —Washington Post 
  “The man knows how to grab you—and Pronto is one of the best grabbers in years.” —Entertainment Weekly 
  Fans of U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens of the hit TV series Justified are in for a major treat. The unstoppable manhunter with the very itchy trigger finger stars in Pronto, a crime fiction gem from the one and only Elmore Leonard, “the greatest crime writer of our time, perhaps ever” (New York Times Book Review). The Grand Master justifies the overwhelming acclaim he has received over the course of his remarkable career with an electrifying thriller that sends the indomitable Raylan racing to Italy on the trail of a fugitive bookie who’s hiding from the vengeful Miami mob. The legendary Leonard, whom the Seattle Times lauds as the “King Daddy of crime writers,” proves that all comparisons to American noir icons John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, and James M. Cain are well deserved with this tale of very dirty doings and extremely dangerous men coming together in the birthplace of Puccini, Garibaldi, and La Cosa Nostra.

  Local Woman Missing is a nerve-tightening psychological thriller about a quiet suburb shattered by multiple disappearances—and the long echo of secrets that refuse to stay buried. When a young mother vanishes and, days later, a beloved neighbor and her little girl go missing, fear corrodes routines and friendships. Years pass… until a teenager escapes captivity and claims to be the child who disappeared. What follows is a razor-edged unraveling of buried truths, shifting loyalties, and the cost of looking the other way. Told through interlocking timelines and multiple voices, this audiobook explores how ordinary people make extraordinary—and catastrophic—choices, and how persistence, documentation, and courage can bend the arc toward justice. Taut, emotional, and impossible to pause, it’s a masterclass in suspense that asks: how well do you really know the people next door?
