#1 New York Times bestseller Charlaine Harris returned “with
a vengeance”* with the start of her Midnight, Texas novels. Now,
the story continues with a wild-new hardcover...
DAY SHIFT
A Novel of Midnight,Texas
Charlaine Harris
There is no such thing as bad publicity, except in Midnight,
Texas, where the residents like to keep to themselves. Even in
a town full of secretive people, Olivia Charity is an enigma.
She lives with the vampire Lemuel, but no one knows what
she does; they only know that she’s beautiful and dangerous.
She’s just the kind of person psychic Manfred Bernardo
needs on his side, now that he’s been accused of murder...

Nikolai has been a contract
killer since he was a boy. He has
always been the hunter, never
the prey. But with Daisy, he is
the mark, ready to lie down and
let her capture him. Opening his
scarred heart to her brings out
his enemies, so he will carry out
one last hit. But if they hurt her,
he will bring the world down
around their ears…
Daniel has turned paid hit
man and befriended criminals
across the globe, all to find
his kidnapped sister. In every
brothel he raids and every
human trafficking truck he stops,
he hopes the next face he finds
will be her’s. Instead in a hidden
brothel in Rio, he finds Regan
Porter, bruised but not broken,
and still sane despite her weeks
in captivity. The last thing either
of them needs is to get involved.
But with every passing minute,
he finds he can’t let her go...
Russian crime lord Vasily has
clawed—and killed—his way to
the top. But to unify his fractured
organization, he needs the
help of a technological genius.
That Naomi is breathtaking,
determined, and vulnerable
makes her more dangerous than
all his enemies combined. But
only he can keep her safe from
the world she now inhabits...

It is the winter of 1945, seven months after the Nazi defeat.
Munich is in ruins and a killer is stalking the devastated city…
RUINS OF WAR
John A. Connell
Mason Collins—former Chicago homicide detective, U.S.
soldier, and prisoner-of-war—is now a U.S. Army criminal
investigator in the American Zone of Occupation. And his
job just became much more dangerous. A killer is stalking
Munich—one who has knowledge of human anatomy,
enacts mysterious rituals with his prey, and seems to pick
victims at random. But what Mason doesn’t know is that the
killer he’s chasing is stalking him as well…
“A thrilling hunt…gripping and gruesome.”
—James Becker, bestselling author of The Lost Testament
“Ruins of War is a well-crafted, classic police tale set in
postwar 1945 Munich, a city that could double as the living
room of hell.”

Glenn Burke with Erik Sherman
Foreword by Billy Beane
Before Jason Collins made headlines coming out as the first
openly gay NBA player in 2013, and before the media frenzy
that surrounded Michael Sam and the 2014 NFL draft, there
was Glenn Burke: a talented Los Angeles Dodger whose
career was cut short by his refusal to hide his identity as a
proud gay man back in the 1970s.
Nearly two decades after his death, Burke was finally
honored by Major League Baseball. This is his story, as told
to Erik Sherman.

SILVER BASTARD
Silver Valley
Joanna Wylde
It’s been five years since ex-con biker Puck Redhouse
destroyed Becca Jones—and saved her, all in one night.
She’s been terrified of him ever since, but she’s even more
terrified of what he still protects her from. Then she gets a
phone call from the past she can’t ignore. She has to go back
home, and Puck is the only man she trusts to return with her.
He’s willing to help her again but this time on his terms. No
more lies, no more tears—and no more holding back what
he really wants.
Praise for the Reapers Motorcycle Club novels:
“Badass bikers and hot sex abound.”
“A gritty, smoking-hot erotic romance.”

From the author of the popular New York Times Well Blog series,
a coming-of-age memoir about finding emotional nourishment
through healthy home cooking.
MY FAT DAD
A Memoir of Food, Love, and Family, with Recipes
Dawn Lerman
Dawn Lerman spent her childhood constantly hungry. She
craved good food as her father, 450 pounds at his heaviest,
pursued endless fad diets. Dawn’s mother, on the other hand,
could barely be bothered to eat a can of tuna over the sink.
It was chaotic and lonely, but Dawn had someone she could
turn to: her grandmother, Beauty, who cultivated Dawn’s
love of wholesome food and taught her how to make her
own way in the world—one recipe at a time.
In My Fat Dad, Lerman reflects on her culinary-centric
childhood, exploring how her associations with food shaped
her relationships with her family, herself, and her future. Told
with humor, compassion, and insight, this is an ode to a love
of cuisine and the satisfaction that comes with learning to
feed those you love—mind, body, and soul.

A stirring portrait of a Holocaust survivor, American immigrant, and
Korean War hero who received the Medal of Honor for acts of valor
beyond the call of duty.
SINGLE HANDED
The Inspiring True Story of Tibor “Teddy” Rubin—
Holocaust Survivor, Korean War Hero, and
Medal of Honor Recipient
Daniel M. Cohen
In 1944, a thirteen-year-old Hungarian boy named Tibor
Rubin was captured by the Nazis and sent to the notorious
Mauthausen concentration camp, where he survived for over
a year. After the war, he arrived penniless in America. In 1950,
he volunteered for service in the Korean War and engaged
in outstanding acts of heroism before being captured. As a
P.O.W., he called on his experience in Mauthausen to help
fellow G.I.s survive. But it wasn’t until 2005, at age 76, that
Tibor’s heroism was officially recognized with the Medal of
Honor. And Rubin, the former Hungarian refugee, became

A moving debut novel about two mothers—one biological
and one adoptive—from a compelling new voice in Southern
women’s fiction.
DEAR CAROLINA
Kristy Woodson Harvey
Frances “Khaki” Mason has it all: a thriving interior design
career, a loving husband and son, homes in North Carolina
and Manhattan—everything except the second child she
has always wanted. Jodi, her husband’s nineteen-year-old
cousin, is fresh out of rehab, pregnant, and alone. And as
Jodi struggles to be the mother she knows her daughter
deserves, she will ask Khaki the ultimate favor…
Written to baby Carolina, by both her birth mother and her
adoptive one, this is a story that proves that life circumstances
shape us but don’t define us—and that families aren’t born,
they’re made…
“Characters with rich, complicated lives...beautifully shows

“A delicious treat for readers, full of unexpected delights
and magical storytelling” (New York Times bestselling
author Beatriz Williams).
THE CAKE THERAPIST
A Novel
Judith Fertig
Claire “Neely” O’Neil is a pastry chef of extraordinary talent.
Every great chef can taste shimmering, elusive flavors that most
of us miss, but Neely can “taste” feelings—cinnamon makes
you remember; plum is pleased with itself; orange is a wake-up
call. When flavor and feeling give Neely a glimpse of someone’s
inner self, she can customize her creations to help one celebrate
love, overcome fear, and even mourn a devastating loss.
Maybe that’s why she feels the need to go home to Millcreek
Valley at a time when her life seems about to fall apart. The
bakery she opens in her hometown is perfect, intimate, just
what she’s always dreamed of—and yet, as she meets her new
customers, Neely has a sense of secrets, some dark, some
perhaps tempting possibilities. A recurring flavor of alarming
intensity signals to her perfect palate a long-ago story that must
be told.

PEOPLE AND PLACES CAN BE MADE UP OF LAYERS,
STORIES THAT GIVE SHAPE TO LIVES, LOVES, AND SECRETS.
From The Cake Therapist:
It wasn’t often that I had difficulty tasting
something. Flavor was the way people like me
made sense of the world.
We knew that there was a flavor that explained you—
even to yourself. A flavor whose truth you recognized
when you tasted it. A flavor that answered the
question you didn’t know you had.
Perhaps it was a voluptuous vanilla that your sharpedged self could sink into like a pillow. Or homesick
pomegranate, each seed like a ruby slipper that would
take you back to the place where you were loved
and where people had missed you.
That’s where I was going. If only I could taste it.

In the wake of a tragedy that stripped her life down to the

she’s summoned to Napa to care for her ailing father, she’s
not sure she has anything to offer him—or anyone else.
But as Ali becomes part of her father’s community, makes
new friends of her own, and hears the stories of a generation
who survived the Second World War, she begins to find
hope again...
Praise for the novels of Jane Porter:

Real estate broker Lanie Howard figures she has the perfect
man, the perfect job, and the perfect life. Then she stumbles
across her old Someday Jar, the forgotten glass relic where
she stashed all her childhood wishes—no matter how crazy.
When an attractive stranger saves her from choking, Lanie
decides to throw caution to the winds, and carry out
everything she had once hoped to do, even if it means
leaving her perfectly “perfect” life behind…

STUFF BRITS LIKE
A Guide to What’s Great About Great Britain
Fraser McAlpine
British native Fraser McAlpine set out to do for his

you might expect from the people who gave you Noël
Coward and Eddie Izzard.

From the bestselling, Christy award-winning author of
The Secret of Pembrooke Park comes a new novel of gothic twists
and spellbinding historical romance.
LADY MAYBE
Julie Klassen
“God almighty, help us!”
One final cry and suddenly her world shifted
violently…until a blinding collision scattered her
mind and shook her bones. Then, as all sensation
drifted away, a hand reached for hers, before all faded
into darkness…
Hannah has awakened in a warm and welcoming room she
has never seen before—tended to by kind, unfamiliar faces.
But not all has been swept away. She recalls fragments of the
accident. She remembers a baby. And a ring on her finger
reminds her of a lie. But most of all, there is a secret. And
in this house of strangers she can trust no one but herself to
keep it...

THE FORSAKEN
A Quinn Colson Novel
Ace Atkins
Thirty-six years ago, a nameless black man wandered into
Jericho, Mississippi. Less than two days later, he was accused
of rape and murder, hunted down by a frenzied posse, and
lynched. Now evidence of his innocence has surfaced, and
county sheriff Quinn Colson sets out to identify the stranger’s
remains and charge those responsible for the lynching. But
as he starts to uncover old lies and secrets of corruption, he
runs up against fierce opposition from those with the most to
lose—and they’re not afraid to play dirty.

to support, Champion—in his secret identity as Michael
Midas—makes ends meet as a garbage collector.
Even with all his super-abilities, Michael finds being a
husband and father more challenging than beating up bad
guys. Torn between fulfilling his great responsibilities, he
wishes Champion had the power to correct the mistakes of
his past—and fix his two lives once and for all.
“Delivers a dynamic narrative and spectacular
illustration…I truly enjoyed reading this story.”

humanity’s only hope lies in the bravery of one woman…
THE RAVEN’S CHILD
Thomas E. Sniegoski
When the Throng came, the human race never stood a
chance. It only took a few months for them to take over and
leave the surviving humans cowering in terror. But even
the monsters fear something: the dark goddess known as
the Raven’s Child. Whoever wields her name and image
could become the bane of the Throng and an inspiration to
humankind—even if she were only a young woman, like

POOR MAN’S FEAST
A Love Story of Comfort, Desire,
and the Art of Simple Cooking
Elissa Altman
Born in New York to a food-phobic mother and a foodfanatical father, Elissa learned early that fancy cuisine is

it, forever. Tender, funny, and honest, this book reveals how
our stories are inextricably bound up with how we feed
ourselves and those we love.

In 1944, hundreds of Allied soldiers were trapped in POW camps
in occupied France. One man had the courage to get them out . . .
BEHIND NAZI LINES
My Father’s Heroic Quest
to Save 149 World War II P.O.W.s
Andrew Gerow Hodges, Jr.,
and Denise George
Andy Hodges had been excluded from military service due
to a lingering shoulder injury, so he joined the Red Cross,
volunteering for the toughest assignments. In the fall of
1944, Andy was tapped for what sounded like a suicide
mission: a desperate attempt to aid the Allied POWs in
occupied France. Andy did far more than deliver muchneeded supplies. By the end of the year, he had negotiated
the release of an unprecedented 149 prisoners—leaving no
one behind. This is the true story of one man’s selflessness,
ingenuity, and victory in the face of impossible adversity.

multiple award-winning Who Fears Death.
THE BOOK OF PHOENIX
Nnedi Okorafor
Phoenix was grown and raised in New York’s Tower 7 among
other human genetic experiments. She is an accelerated
woman with unusual abilities. Only two years old, but with
the body and mind of an adult woman, Phoenix has never
been outside and has spent her short life reading e-books,
running on her treadmill, and basking in the love of Saeed,
another ward of Tower 7.
Then one day, Saeed sees something he was never meant
to see, and takes his own life. Devastated by his death and
Tower 7’s refusal to answer her questions, Phoenix finally
begins to yearn for her freedom. But obtaining that freedom
comes with a heavy, highly destructive price that not only
changes Phoenix forever, but seals the fate of her world.

Praise for Nnedi Okorafor and Who Fears Death:

of paranormal people and battles are disturbingly vivid and palpable.”

exploring issues of race, gender, and cultural identity, Okorafor blends
future fantasy with the rhythm and feel of African storytelling.”

First in a new compelling and thought-provoking
science fiction series from a major new voice in the genre.
NOVA
Margaret Fortune
Lia Johansen is not human. She is a genetically engineered
bomb in the shape of a sixteen-year-old girl.
Her mission was simple: Hide among a group of recentlyreleased POWs, sneak onto New Sol Space Station, wait for
her internal countdown clock to reach zero...and blow the
place up. But her clock malfunctions, and Lia’s mission is
dead in the water—she’s a dud.
With no Plan B, no memories of her past, and no identity
besides a name stolen from a dead POW, Lia doesn’t know
what to do with the life she was never meant to have. Then
she meets Michael, the childhood best friend of the real Lia
Johansen, and she begins to learn what it means to have
friends and a family. To be human. To live.
But when her clock starts shedding seconds, Lia must
discover a way to save her new family—and herself...

Don’t miss the launch of science fiction’s
brightest new star...
Nova is the explosive, pulse-pounding first novel from debut author Margaret
Fortune. This vivid and gripping science fiction adventure launches a five-book series.
Each novel features a different protagonist in a stand-alone story, but all installments
revolve around the Spectres, an incorporeal alien species bent on infiltrating and
destroying the human race.
*36:00:00*
From Nova:
The clock activates so suddenly in my mind, my head involuntarily jerks a bit
to the side. The fog vanishes, dissipated in an instant as though it never was.
Memories come slotting into place, their edges sharp enough to leave furrows
in my mind, and suddenly I know. I know exactly who I am.
My name is Lia Johansen, and I was named for a prisoner of war. She lived in
the Tiersten Internment Colony for two years, and when they negotiated the
return of the prisoners, I was given her memories and sent back in her place.
And I am a genetically engineered human bomb.

THE TWICE AND
FUTURE CAESAR
A Novel of the U.S.S. Merrimack
R.M. Meluch
The U.S.S. Merrimack space battleship was on the galaxy’s
edge, patrolling the Perseid arm. Rumor said it had become
home to an underground subversive faction of the followers
of Romulus. The United States was not an ally of Rome, who
had declared war two years ago and caused great devastation
before its defeat.
Then the Merrimack suffered an unprovoked attack by what
seemed to be a Roman ship. Was it an unexpected move
by Rome’s Caesar Numa, or the opening salvo by the forces
of Romulus?
