New Fiction
Come spring by Tim F. LaHaye.
This is the first volume in a trilogy, and it is a tale of faith belief and encouragement. Like the best of Jan Karon, this is a small-town story with warmhearted charm, sure to appeal to a wide readership.
Honeymoon by James Patterson.
When rich men begin to die mysteriously, FBI agent John O'Hara is on the case. After a young writer succumbs to an apparent heart attack, John turns a probing eye to the man's ambitious widow.
The lost mother by Mary McGarry Morris.
Abandoned by his beautiful wife, Irene, Henry and their two young children, Thomas and Margaret, spend that summer in a tent on the edge of Black Pond. Henry, an itinerant butcher, struggles to provide for them, but often must leave them alone as he travels the county in search of work. And while Henry loves his children deeply, he is devastated by their mother's desertion. He has not told them why she left or if she'll return. When Mrs. Phyllis Farley, a prosperous neighbor, begins to woo the children as companions for her strange, housebound son, Henry must weigh an unusual proposition, the consequences of which may cost him everything. Powerfully imagined and intensely felt, The Lost Mother is a haunting masterwork and McGarry Morris's strongest novel to date.
Nightcrawlers by Bill Pronzini.
Bill Pronzini's "Nameless" detective has become one of the longest-lived, and consistently highly praised, private investigators in the annals of American crime fiction and the award-winning author proves, once again, that his skills are unmatched.
Sentenced to die by J. A. Jance.
This single volume contains Jance's Until Proven Guilty, Injustice for All, and And Trial by Fury.
