The Boy with the Star Tattoo (2024)
Talia Carner
"Historical novels don't get much better than The Boy with the Star Tattoo, and it's obvious that the author did her homework, then sat down to a labor of love. The mark of a great historical novel is where the fictional characters become more real than the historical events they are living through. Talia Carner is a writer's writer and a reader's delight."
thumb
The Siberia Job (2023)
Josh Haven
"A ground-breaking novel that redefines the conventional action/adventure, chase and escape genre."
thumb
The Lindbergh Nanny (2022)
Mariah Fredericks
"A bold and creative retelling of the Lindbergh baby kidnapping, a masterful blending of fact and fiction that is as compelling as it is entertaining. We know how this tragedy ends, but Mariah Fredericks takes us on an extraordinary journey along a different path to get there. The writing is superb and the characters--real and fictional--come alive on every page."
