    A new collection from Jane Routh, author of Circumnavigation, shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection, and Teach Yourself Mapmaking, a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
    After lockdowns have swept calendars clear, leaf-fall, early sunrise and gales are Jane Routh's measures of time, as she goes about her tasks in the hill pasture and woodlands where she has the luck to live.
    With sharp, lyrical description and down-to earth understanding, her poems consider the flora and fauna around her, formative moments and lifespans – as well as the dead who won't be forgotten. Her elegant and informed writing conveys a sense of belonging in a particular place and the care for its future, carrying a universal resonance.

    Me, You, Then Snow by Khashayar Mohammadi is a collection of poetry woven from dreams, memories and deep-seeded longing, a collection of poetry that ranges from ambiguously addressed love-letters, to ekphrastic poems for arthouse cinema, to pieces written near midnight when the day’s experiences rush back into view. Though working in diverse forms and styles, the poetry manifests as a profoundly unified desire to experience and communicate the world.

    He’s seen it all. Until now. 
    Detective Darrius Blue has walked the shadowy streets of New York City for over a decade, chasing justice through blood-stained alleyways and broken dreams. But when a high-profile murder rattles the city’s elite and clues lead to a powerful web of corruption, Darrius finds himself caught in a case that threatens everything he stands for—and everyone he loves. 
    With his sharp instincts, relentless grit, and a past that never quite lets go, Darrius digs deep into a mystery that grows darker at every turn. Each answer raises more questions. Each ally could be an enemy. And the closer he gets to the truth, the more dangerous the game becomes. 
    As the line between justice and vengeance blurs, Darrius must decide how far he's willing to go. Because in a city where secrets kill, some truths are better left buried.
