The Atlas of Untold Stories

Editorial: Revell

Sinopsis

A literary journey beckons them . . . and may profoundly rewrite their stories.  
 
Chloe Vance, dreamer of the family, needs to tell her pragmatic mom, Edie, that she has accepted a low-paying art instructor role at a Christian school in Prague. Her older sister, Lauren--the "responsible one"--is doing all she can to hide the fact she's been fired for a foolish mistake and is desperately seeking her next career move. Meanwhile, Edie, estranged from her own sister following their mother's recent death, is frankly in no mood for anything else to change.   
 
The one thing they can all agree on? Life in books sure is easier to navigate than life in the real world. As the three women embark on a nine-day road trip to visit significant literary sites throughout America's heartland, they hope to find inspiration through the works and lives of literary greats. As they experience firsthand the adventure and wonder of the classics, they'll discover the value of being honest with themselves--and their family--about their losses and failures. Only then can they come to terms with their own needs and desires and find support from the most important women in their lives--each other.  
 
Book clubs will relish this trek through America's classic literature as award-winning author Sara Brunsvold pens an inspirational novel of mother-daughter relationships, sisterhood, literary themes, a cross-country road trip, and books about books.

Black Mirror - A Cait Reagan...

Aoibh Wood

Terror stalks from beneath the Streets of Boston.
Detective Cait Reagan, forever changed by her relationship with Marcella Carson, has survived the opening of the Black Gate and the vampire curse. Now, seemingly cured, Cait has a new lease on her mortal life, but difficulties beset her at every turn. Cait’s mother, Róisín, is neurologically devastated, unable to function without constant supervision, and her reunion with Morgan Kennedy, the first woman she ever loved, is downright awkward. In the meantime, Cait struggles to raise Katie, the sixteen-year-old vampire she turned in a desperate bid to save her life. Once Cait’s enemy, Elizabeth is helping with Katie, but Cait’s relationship with Liz is tenuous and strange. And eight-hundred-year-old vampire Nastasia Volkova, the acting head of the vampire council, seems to have her eye on Cait, refusing to remove her from the roll of known vampires.
As if all of this turmoil wasn’t enough for one woman to handle, Marcella is missing, and someone is murdering the remaining vampires who survived the battle of the Black Gate. Nastasia has made it crystal clear that she wants the culprits found and brought to her brand of justice. Meanwhile, something sinister stalks from the Black Gate deep beneath Boston.
Cait must juggle her increasingly complicated personal life with the needs of her job, Nastasia’s strange fixation, and the whirlwind of her own desperate search for self as she grasps for answers to the question, ‘What is true evil?’

A Dark and Stormy Tea

Laura Childs

A possible serial killer on the loose sends tea maven Theodosia Browning into a whirlwind of investigation in this latest installment of the New York Timesbestselling series. 
 
It was a dark and stormy night, but that was the least of Theodosia Browning’s troubles. As she approaches St. Philips Graveyard, Theodosia sees two figures locked in a strange embrace. Wiping rain from her eyes, Theodosia realizes she  
has just witnessed a brutal murder and sees a dark-hooded figure slip away into the fog. 
 
In the throes of alerting police, Theodosia recognizes the victim—it is the daughter of her friend, Lois, who owns the Antiquarian Bookshop next door to her own Indigo Tea Shop. 
 
Even though this appears to be the work of a serial killer who is stalking the back alleys of Charleston, Lois begs Theodosia for help. Against the advice of her boyfriend, Detective Pete Riley, and the sage words of Drayton, her tea  
sommelier, amateur-sleuth Theodosia launches her own shadow investigation.  
 
And quickly discovers that suspects abound with the dead girl’s boyfriend, nefarious real estate developer, private-security man, bumbling reporter, and her own neighbor who is writing a true-crime book and searching for a big ending. 
 
Includes delicious recipes and tea time tips!
