"Juju assassins, alternate history, a gritty New York crime story...in a word: awesome." -N.K. Jemisin, New York Times bestselling author of The Fifth Season The dangerous magic of The Night Circus meets the powerful historical exploration of The Underground Railroad in Alaya Dawn Johnson's timely and unsettling novel, set against the darkly glamorous backdrop of New York City, where an assassin falls in love and tries to change her fate at the dawn of World War II. Amid the whir of city life, a young woman from Harlem is drawn into the glittering underworld of Manhattan, where she's hired to use her knives to strike fear among its most dangerous denizens. Ten years later, Phyllis LeBlanc has given up everything-not just her own past, and Dev, the man she loved, but even her own dreams. Still, the ghosts from her past are always by her side-and history has appeared on her doorstep to threaten the people she keeps in her heart. And so Phyllis will have to make a harrowing choice, before it's too late-is there ever enough blood in the world to wash clean generations of injustice? Trouble the Saints is a dazzling, daring novel-a magical love story, a compelling exposure of racial fault lines-and an altogether brilliant and deeply American saga.

In Document #4 of the Edgar-nominated series detailing an outrageously funny family of detectives, former wild child and private investigator Izzy Spellman finally agrees to take over the family business. But the transition won't be a smooth one...
First among her priorities as head of Spellman Investigations is to dig up some dirt on the competition, slippery ex-cop Rick Harkey--a task she may enjoy a little too much. Next, faced with a baffling missing-persons case at the home of an aging millionaire, Izzy hires an actor friend, Len, to infiltrate the mansion as an undercover butler--a role "he "may enjoy a little much.
Meanwhile, Izzy is being blackmailed by her mother (photographic evidence of Prom Night 1994) to commit to regular blind dates with promising professionals--an arrangement that doesn't thrill Connor, an Irish bartender on the brink of becoming Ex-boyfriend #12.
At Spellman headquarters, it's business as unusual. Doorknobs and light fixtures are disappearing every day, Mom's been spotted crying in the pantry, and a series of increasingly demanding Spellman Rules (Rule #27: No Speaking Today) can't quite hold the family together. Izzy also has to decipher weekly "phone calls from the edge" from her octogenarian lawyer, Morty, as well as Detective Henry Stone's mysterious interest in rekindling their relationsh . . . well, whatever it was.
Just when it looks like things can't go more haywire, little sister Rae's internship researching pro bono legal cases leads the youngest Spellman to launch a grassroots campaign that could spring an innocent man from jail--or land Rae in it.
"The Spellmans Strike Again "is hands down the most hilarious, thrilling, and moving book in this bestselling, award-nominated series. And it proves beyond a reasonable doubt that Isabel Spellman, no matter how much she matures, will never be able to follow Rule #1: Act Normal.

Critics are raving about this deliciously chilling new thriller from Scandanavian crime-writing sensation Camilla Lackberg.

Named by major media outlets, such as "USA TODAY," "The New York Times," and "The Washington Post," as a main successor to Stieg Larsson, Swedish author Lackberg is on the rise. Her new novel, which "The Washington Post" has already named as one of their "Ten Books We Love This Year" and praised as "richly textured and downright breathtaking," continues the story of local detective Patrik Hedstrom and his girlfriend, Erica Falck, the beloved crime-solving duo whose first child has just been born. But while they celebrate this new life, a suspicious drowning claims a little girl they knew well. As the murder's implications widen, Patrik's investigation threatens to tear apart the rural fishing village of Fjallbacka, where a secret lurks that spans generations.
A deeply satisfying third installment in her internationally bestselling series, "The Stonecutter "will establish Lackberg for the U.S. audience once and for all. As "USA TODAY" says, "If you haven't yet read the equally entrancing "Ice Princess" and "The Preacher," what are you waiting for?"
