A deadly rivalry.
A chilling secret.
One woman who can decipher the truth.
On a frigid, windswept day in Scotland's Western Isles, Eleanor Bruton's body is discovered on the shore. To her family Eleanor was an ordinary middle-aged woman.

Unbeknownst to Anya she's been recruited at great personal danger to translate ancient texts that the Fellowship believes critical to their mission.
Meanwhile at Scotland Yard, Detective Constable Clio Spicer begins a private investigation into the death of Eleanor Bruton.

Curious Calling of Leonard Bush
WINNER of the Willie Morris Award for Southern Fiction
Young Leonard Bush buries his lost leg and saves his whole East Tennessee town in this winsome and miracle-making novel.
When twelve-year-old Leonard Bush loses his leg in a freak accident, he decides to give his leg a proper burial in the hilltop cemetery of his East Tennessee town. This event somehow sets off a chain of miraculous and catastrophic events--upending the lives of Leonard's rigidly God-fearing mother, June; his deeply conflicted father, Emmett; and his best friend, Azalea, and her mother, Rose, who is also the town prostitute. While the local Baptist minister passes judgment on events and promises dire consequences, the people of this small community on the banks of Big Sugar move together toward awakening.
Susan Gilmore's love of storytelling flows naturally from her Tennessee roots. She's the daughter of a revival preacher's son, brought up on the land and streams that populate this novel that is, as Appalachian novelist Lee Smith says, a "homespun Pilgrim's Progress."

Madness to Manifestation: From Breakdown to Breakthrough
"Lesley's story is a rare and powerful bridge between trauma psychology and lived experience. She shows us how unprocessed pain can masquerade as instability and how healing requires both science and compassion. This book will give language to people who have felt misunderstood by diagnosis alone."
--Dr. Maggie Vaughan, founder and executive director, Happy Apple
Lesley Yvonne Hunter appeared to have it all-public poise, professional achievement, a crown, a marriage, and a life marked by discipline and grace. But beneath the polish lived a nervous system shaped by childhood sexual trauma, inherited sensitivity, and silent survival. When psychological breakdowns in adulthood forced her into hospitalization, medication trials, and intensive trauma therapy, Lesley faced a terrifying question: Was her mind broken or was it trying to tell her something?
In this courageous and deeply reflective memoir, Lesley traces her journey from collapse to coherence. Through EMDR, nervous system regulation, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and relentless self-inquiry, she transforms what once felt like madness into integration. Along the way, she reclaims the intuitive gifts inherited from her grandmother, the empathy modeled by her mother, and the discipline instilled by her father, refining sensitivity into strength.
Blending neuroscience and spirituality, artistry and accountability, Lesley offers readers more than a story of survival. She provides a framework for manifestation grounded in regulation, alignment, and daily practice. Foreword by Maureen Lippe.

Some Bright Nowhere
AN OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB PICK
"Extraordinary. Books like this are why I love reading. This novel about marriage and friendship and life and dying is a marvel." --Elin Hilderbrand
"Profound and moving and real."--Andrew Sean Greer
"Some Bright Nowhere is a novel that draws you in deeply and holds you there. Wonderful."--Meg Wolitzer
The bestselling, beloved author returns with her first novel in over a decade, an intimate and profoundly moving look at a long marriage and the ways in which a startling request can change a couple's understanding of who they are, together and apart.
Eliot and his wife Claire have been happily married for nearly four decades. They've raised two children in their sleepy Connecticut town and have weathered the inevitable ups and downs of a long life spent together. But eight years after Claire was diagnosed with cancer, the end is near, and it's time to gather loved ones and prepare for the inevitable.
Over the years of Claire's illness, Eliot has willingly--lovingly--shifted into the role of caregiver, appreciating the intimacy and tenderness that comes with a role even more layered and complex than the one he performed as a devoted husband. But as he focuses on settling into what will be their last days and weeks together, Claire makes an unexpected request that leaves him reeling. In a moment, his carefully constructed world is shattered.
What if your partner's dying wish broke your heart? How well do we know the deepest desires of those we love dearly? As Eliot is confronted with this profound turning point in his marriage and his life, he grapples with the man and husband he's been, and with the great unknowns of Claire's last days.
Ann Packer makes a triumphant return with this powerful novel that is tender and raw, visceral and unexpected. Emotionally vibrant and complex, Some Bright Nowhere explores the profound gifts and unexpected costs of truly loving someone, and the fears and desires we experience as the end of life draws near.
