"One of the most intense--and often enjoyable--reading experiences I've had this year. I will surely be inhaling whatever C. Mallon writes next." --Isaac Fitzgerald, The New York Times Book Review

A singular, devastating debut novel, Dogs traces the fallout of one catastrophic night in the lives of five high school wrestlers, asking what can survive in the blast radius of latent trauma and violence.

As night falls on the city of Carbon, Hal and his friends are cruising the backroads in their terrible car. From the wrestling gym to the gas station, from his mom's kitchen to the mall parking lot, Hal bears quiet witness to the beauty and the horror he perceives in the slow, lonely world of his hometown.

Withdrawn and reticent, Hal is haunted by the specter of violence. Safety and comfort are hard won in Carbon, a town dogged by stories of desperation and brutality, and his own home is a dark vault of troubled and unspoken memory. Hal's greatest peace is found in the company of his dearest friend, Cody John, whose true compassion offers him a window to a better life.

Over the course of a single night, a catastrophic chain of events is set into motion. Its devastating conclusion will explode the fragile balance that once kept the boys together. Unflinching, resolute, and beautifully rendered, Dogs is a stunning exploration of trauma, real love, and the limit of our ability to reach one another.

Aleese Lin's delightful, spooky--or Spük-y?--contemporary romance debut is perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes and Netflix's Wednesday.

Samantha Spük is your go-to wedding planner, be it for werewolf, vampire, or fae!

...even if that's the last thing she would've imagined. Samantha "Sabby" Spük has spent her life trying to escape her family's legacy of supernatural chaos. She's finally graduated and landed a nice, normal 9-5 at a New York accounting firm. But then she gets the call: Grandma Rose is gone, and Sabby has been named executor of her (ahem, magically binding) will.

Now Sabby is stuck in her dreaded hometown of Salem, Massachusetts, taking on odd jobs--some very odd, like wedding planning for not-so-human locals--until she can sell the family home. At least this means a date with Hanry, the mysterious hottie Sabby meets in the neighborhood graveyard. With help from Hanry, a talking-head sidekick, and a manic pixie assistant, Sabby might pull these weddings off in time to salvage her accounting career...but is she ready to say goodbye to her paranormal one?

Experience a sizzling, age-gap romance where passion knows no boundaries and second chances are just the beginning.

Two decades designing couture for the elite, and building a billion-dollar fashion brand, should feel like success. Instead, I have an empty mansion, a fresh divorce settlement, and the sinking feeling that I traded everything meaningful for a life that looks better on social media than it does in the mirror.

When my practically estranged best friend passes away, she leaves me with the one thing my ex-husband never gave me a chance to have--a baby. Well, a soon-to-be baby, currently residing in a surrogate's belly. Surprise!

Guilt-ridden, and scared to face this alone, cue my desperate funeral plus-one hire: Saylor, an escort with bedroom eyes and a smile that makes me forget I'm supposedly "past my expiration date." He's over a decade younger and shouldn't give me a second glance after the check clears.

Only he does.

And while I'm spiraling over surprise motherhood and the thoughts of launching a new fashion empire, away from the clutches of my ex, this way-too-young-for-me man has the audacity to look at me like I'm the only woman in the world.

"Too old" is what society whispers about women my age starting over. Too old for babies. Too old for new beginnings. Definitely too old for Saylor's salacious advances that make me feel like a teenager in lust.

But what if the happily ever after isn't lost, just fashionably late? And what if the unattainable escort couldn't care less about earning his money, because he's making a play for my heart?

Walker fights tooth and nail for his friends, and although he loses a leg and an eye in the process, he manages to save everyone from almost certain doom. But as he adjusts to a new life with permanent injuries, his female comrades, shaken by his near-death experience, begin to act strangely and overprotectively toward him!

Having achieved his every goal, Ryoma returns from the Sea of Trees of Syrus, parting ways with S-rank adventurer Glen and heading safely to Gimul. There, life slows down with peaceful, mundane adventures--reuniting with the Jamils, tending to his laundry business, and showing Eleonora around the city. Meanwhile, with the Jamils' support, Ryoma dives into the study of hexes, quickly proving his talent under the guidance of a brand-new tutor.

Si quieres descubrir la verdad, tendrás que sumergirte en el pasado.

Tras el éxito de la Trilogía de Illumbe y El hijo olvidado, con más de 1.500.000 lectores, vuelve el maestro del thriller: Mikel Santiago.

Quintana Torres es una escritora de éxito. Los medios la apodan «la nueva reina del thriller». Durante una firma de ejemplares en Bilbao, se acerca a ella un antiguo compañero del instituto y le entrega un misterioso sobre negro. Dentro hay una fotografía del diario de Alba, la adolescente muerta en extrañas circunstancias cuya historia inspiró la novela más conocida de Quintana: La chica del lago.

Este hallazgo llevará a la escritora a cancelar su gira promocional y regresar a la vieja casa de su padre en Urkizu, el pequeño pueblo de interior del País Vasco donde ocurrió todo. Fue allí donde, durante la Noche de San Juan de 1999, Alba desapareció para siempre y, con ella, ese enigmático diario que siempre llevaba consigo.

Un thriller al más puro estilo Mikel Santiago, en el que la investigación en el presente irá abriendo puertas que quedaron cerradas en el pasado, dando un nuevo significado a todo lo que sucedió entonces. A lo largo de una trama sin tregua, esta novela llevará al lector por distintos escenarios -Bilbao, Madrid y Urkizu-, tras los pasos de una protagonista que se enfrenta a un secreto oculto durante años.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

If you want to discover the truth, you will have to dive into the past.

After the success of the Trilogía Illumbre and El hijo olvidado, with more than 1,500,000 readers, the master of thriller returns: Mikel Santiago.

Quintana Torres is a successful writer, dubbed "the new queen of thriller" by the media. During a book signing in Bilbao, an old schoolmate hands her a mysterious black envelope containing a photograph of Alba's diary, the teenager who died under strange circumstances and inspired Quintana's most famous novel, "The Girl from the Lake."

This discovery prompts Quintana to cancel her promotional tour and return to her father's old house in Urkizu, the small inland village in the Basque Country where it all happened. It was there, on the night of San Juan in 1999, that Alba disappeared forever, along with her enigmatic diary.

In true Mikel Santiago style, this thriller involves an investigation in the present that opens doors to the past, giving new meaning to everything that happened. The novel takes the reader through various settings--Bilbao, Madrid, and Urkizu--following a protagonist who confronts a secret hidden for years.

A talented heretic and the emperor she both loathes and loves will learn what monsters are really made of in the second installment of the Moon Heresies trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Tessa Gratton.

Iriset--prodigy, outlaw, now sunderer--has broken the Moon-Eater god's prison at the heart of the empire. But the consequences of her actions land her in a city of monsters where the heretical magic of human architecture is freely practiced, and the only person she knows--and can trust--is Lyric, the emperor she's lied to and loved in equal measure.

As scheming kings and capricious gods drive them towards different extremes, they soon realize that to find their way home, they must remake the world ... at the risk of breaking it forever.
