  Tabby the comfort pet? 
  When I wake up in a residential home with little memory of how I got there, I’m forced to rely on my succubus cat, Tabitha, for support. Talk about a nightmare. 
  It turns out we’re in Whisperwood Manor, where my intuitive friend, Kayla, believes something sinister is making the residents disappear—by devouring them. Is it the cold-blooded administrator? Her staff of ex-cons? Or has the predator melded into the resident population, licking its chops in plain sight? 
  I need to find out fast, and without getting devoured myself. A challenge given my scant memory and shaky magic, not to mention my outsized dependence on Tabitha, who’s already acting like the Queen of Sheba. 
  Pray for me. 
  Croft & Tabby is a spinoff of the popular Prof Croft series, set before the main books. If you like snarky cats, fledgling mages, and supernatural investigations, you'll love Croft & Tabby!

  It is 1963, one year after Independence, and Trinidadians are beginning to wonder what they can expect. Anna takes a temporary post at a remote post office in a small coastal town, hoping to escape a failed relationship, and the drama, pressures and politics of her city life. But neither time or space is granted, as the life of Macaima passes through the post office, and Anna reluctantly begins to take on the villagers' stories – which prove to be just as complicated and enmeshed in the social, cultural and political issues that divide the nation as her own. Long before the year is up, Anna has been immersed in an intense seasoning in Macaima that will change her for ever. Macaima is a magical place of intense and unforgettable characters, which Jennifer Rahim draws with exceptional psychological subtlety. And Anna herself – flawed, a little prickly and sometimes too ready to jump to conclusions – is a complex narrator whom we ultimately trust and care for. As an historical novel it asks probing questions about the nature of the means and ends of the project of Independence and its failures with respect to race, class, gender and sexuality.
  Goodbye Bay is simply one of the very best Caribbean novels to have been written, and not just in recent years. Written in a seamless mix of sharply observed realism with moments of rich humour, and of numinous poetic intensity, it tells a gripping story with room for surprise, humour, tragedy and redemption.

  Millie and the crew on board Siren of the Seas have their hands full when a group of cowboys and cowgirls board their ship for an action-packed, fun-filled cruise. Andy Walker, the ship’s cruise director, is pulling out all the stops since one of the passengers, Colt Kenworth, has close ties to Majestic Cruise Lines’ CEO, Ted Danvers. 
  The cowboys are spending big bucks on lavish parties and special events including a bull riding competition. Andy has assigned Millie to oversee their events and the cruise starts out smoothly until one of the cowboys takes a hard fall after being thrown from a mechanical bull. 
  Brushing it off, the man refuses to be checked out at the medical center. Within hours he’s dead. Unfortunately, the deceased is the passenger with close ties to Ted Danvers and is also part of a powerful and wealthy family. Suspicions about why the man sustained deadly injuries soon swirl and Danvers dispatches staff from corporate to conduct an investigation of their own. 
  Rumor has it there could be a major shakeup among the officers and crew onboard Siren of the Seas if they are found negligent. For Millie, it’s a race against time to figure out if the cowboy recklessly put his life in danger or if something much more sinister is afoot.
