British sci-fi drama. After an asteroid crashes into Earth, aliens
invade the ravaged planet to depopulate its surface. As the
invaders' spacecraft hangs ominously in the sky above them,

(Gillian MacGregor) frantically search for their missing daughter.
As they embark on their search, the couple's relationship yields to
the conflict of survival in the apocalyptic event's aftermath.
The Project is a pulls-no-punches story from New York Times
bestselling and Edgar Award winning author Courtney Summers, about
an aspiring young journalist determined to save her sister no
matter the cost. The #1 Indie Next Pick and winner of the
International Thriller Writers Award now in paperback with an
exclusive bonus chapter. BELIEVE HIM, BETRAY HER 1998: Six-year-old
Bea doesn't want a sister but everything changes when Lo is born
early. Small and frail, Lo needs someone to look out for her.
Having a sister is a promise, Mom says--one Bea's determined not to
break. 2011: A car wreck, their parents dead. Lo would've died too
if not for Lev Warren, the charismatic leader of The Unity Project.
He's going to change the world and after he saves Lo's life, Bea
wants to commit to his extraordinary calling. Lev promises a place
for the girls in the project, where no harm will ever come to them
again . . . if Bea proves herself to him first. 2017: Lo doesn't
know why Bea abandoned her for The Unity Project after the
accident, but she never forgot what Bea said the last time they
spoke: We'll see each other again. Six years later, Lo is invited
to witness the group's workings, meet with Lev, and--she
hopes--finally reconnect with her sister. But Bea is long gone, and
the only one who seems to understand the depths of this betrayal is
Lev. If it's family Lo wants, he can make her a new promise . . .
if she proves herself to him first. Powerful, suspenseful and
heartbreaking, The Project follows two sisters who fall prey to the
same cult leader--and their desperate fight back to one another.
Available now: I'M THE GIRL, the "brutally captivating" (Publishers
Weekly, starred review) queer thriller from Courtney Summers, based

'Irresistable.' Megan Abbott 'A gory, gorgeous feast of a book.'
Kiran Millwood Hargrave 'This book is crazy. You have to read it.'
Bon Appetit Dorothy Daniels has always had a voracious - and
adventurous - appetite. From her idyllic farm-to-table childhood
(homegrown tomatoes, thick slices of freshly baked bread) to the
heights of her career as a food critic (white truffles washed down
with Barolo straight from the bottle) Dorothy has never been shy
about indulging her exquisite tastes - even when it lead to her
plunging an ice pick into her lover's neck. There is something
inside Dorothy that makes her different from everybody else.
Something she's finally ready to confess. But beware: her story
just might make you wonder how your lover would taste sauteed with
shallots and mushrooms and deglazed with a little red wine. 'An
unapologetic, rollicking satire of one woman's insatiable
appetite.' Irish Times 'Thrilling and awful.' The Times 'One of the
most uniquely fun and campily gory books in my recent memory.' New
York Times 'Riotously funny and deliriously unhinged.' Refinery29
READERS ARE DEVOURING A CERTAIN HUNGER: 'Decadent, sleazy,
visceral, disgusting. I can't believe this is a first novel.' 'If a
female Hannibal starred in Orange is the New Black, it would give
you a pretty good idea of what to expect from this novel. ... I
could write pages about how much I loved this book but it would
still not do it justice. Just read it!' 'This was everything I
wanted from a book. Exciting, funny, gory, and most of all the
absolutely exquisite writing.' 'I loved this book from beginning to
end, it was dark, humorous and also made me a feel a little queasy
in places!'
