«Un debut absolutamente impresionante... Una autora a la que hay que seguir de cerca y un libro que hay que leer» --Cynthia Pelayo, autora de Vanishing Daughters y ganadora del Premio Bram Stoker.

En 1920, Antonia y sus padres se mudan a La Casona, la opulenta mansión construída por ellos al borde del Salto del Tequendama: una majestuosa cascada a las afueras de Bogotá, que alguna vez adoraron los indígenas muiscas. Lo que comienza como un sueño pronto se convierte en tragedia: mientras decenas de personas van al Salto a quitarse la vida, Antonia empieza a sufrir pesadillas terribles y Estela, su madre, desvaría cada vez más. La estocada final ocurre cuando Estela cae al vacío, y su padre, enloquecido por el dolor, intenta quemar la casa con Antonia todavía dentro.

Tres años después, atormentada por sueños perturbadores y el críptico diario de su difunta madre, Antonia regresa a la casa, ahora convertida en un lujoso hotel. Pero la visita desencadena una serie de visiones y recuerdos fragmentados que la obligan a preguntarse sobre las verdaderas circunstacias de la muerte de su madre. En busca de respuestas, y sin poder confiar en nadie, Antonia se lanzará a desenterrar los secretos más oscuros de La Casona. El horror ancestral que habita entre sus muros ha sido despertado, y ya no hay vuelta atrás.

Un debut inolvidable de Caronlina Flórez-Cerchiaro, la nueva reina del gótico latinoamericano.

On her tenth birthday, Meticulous Jones--known to her friends as Metty--receives her fate, as all children do, in the form of a magical tattoo on her hand. She hopes that her ink will reveal something exciting: a tattoo that will symbolize travel, or discovery, or adventure. What appears is a skull, balanced in the palm of a violet glove.

Metty's fate is to become a murderer.

Metty is swiftly hidden away by her father, Moral Jones, in a remote Welsh farmhouse, with only a miserable housekeeper (who's terrified she'll become Metty's first victim) for company. But when Moral goes missing, his sister, Aunt Magnificent, arrives to sweep Metty off to the glittering city of New London. Metty is mesmerized by the magic and enchantment she discovers there. But when she starts to hear rumors of a mysterious and dangerous organization known as the Black Moths, she wonders if they might be connected to her father's disappearance--and to her own fate. . . .

In the hot, gossipy town of Stony Lonesome, shy eleven-year old Willa interacts with others the only way that feels right to her--the mail. She loves the mail so much that she hopes to become a mail carrier herself one day. But her dreams of delivering birthday cards, thank-you notes, and love letters come crashing down when she's mistaken for the notorious Two Gum Tilly, a bandit rumored to be stealing mail for as long as folks can recall.
Now an outlaw herself, Willa realizes the only way to clear her name is to bring the real crook to justice. But when a chance encounter introduces her to the Gumshoe Gang, a group of runaways looking to right the wrongs of the letter-looting thief, she finds that human connection might be her only path to freedom. Can Willa clear her name and revive her dreams of postal glory, or has she stamped her last letter . . . forever?

"My darlings . . . Not to be too Hollywood about this, but if you're watching this tape, that can mean only one thing: I have shuffled off this mortal coil . . . and you two are going to need each other more than ever. You need to set aside your differences and look out for each other--just like you always used to."

Poppy and Rose used to be close as sisters could be--until everything went wrong. Now in their forties, they haven't spoken in years. But when their vivacious, glamorous, powerhouse of a mother dies, they are both faced with the shock of grief. However, their mother was not one to go shrinking into the night. No, their mother, Andrea, has left them a project to work on together: a sort of scavenger hunt through their lives, which she calls the A to Z of Everything. Her final wish: to heal the fractured relationship between her daughters that broke her heart.

A is for Ashes. C is for champagne. D is for Daddy Issues. But when they get to F for Forgiveness, can they make a start, even when they can barely look at each other?

With Andrea's wicked sense of humor and wild stories from her acting career, she has left the quest in a series of boxes filled with letters, recordings, videos, mementos, and instructions.

From Liverpool to London and even Paris, the sisters follow the trail toward a glimmer of hope: despite loss, there is room for laughter, love, and healing--and for second chances.

A French chateau. A forest with secrets. A magical spring. Welcome to La Chanson, where lost souls are found again...

At the brink of summer, Callie arrives in a secluded village in the South of France with her young daughter, after barely escaping her menacing ex-partner.

Her new home sings with flowing water, rustling olive trees, and whispering poppies--an otherworldly nook of hidden magic. Little by little, she warms to her quirky neighbors--a witchy landlady, an acclaimed truffle hunter, his kind veterinarian son, and their lovable dogs. Oh, and a mischievous ghost boy.

Slowly but surely, her new friends help her discover herself again. Years earlier, she gave up music at the insistence of her ex, but as she reclaims her voice, everyone finds that her songs open hearts and heal old wounds. When her ex tracks her down, the stakes grow deadly, and she must tap into her most powerful self to protect her newfound family.

Whimsical and atmospheric, The River Muse will enchant readers with its myth and music--showing how we can find friendship, love, and our truest selves in the most unexpected places.

The Hollywood Misadventures of a Small-Town Girl

Tales of ambition, delusion, drugs, sex, and misogyny... including selling T-shirts on the Girls Gone Wild bus

GIRL GONE WILD is a collection of exploits and delusions about chasing your dreams with reckless abandon and what happens when their pursuit becomes a new kind of trap. In this memoir-in-essays, Kocak takes readers along on her heady metamorphosis from girl to woman and from dreamer to professional artist, as she is transformed in this unwitting feminist coming-of-age. It's a wild, cringeworthy, and often heartbreaking tale, but with Kocak's wry wit and clear-eyed accounting, it's nothing short of captivating.

Lena Nylander joins Ottawa's Civil Service in 1958, expecting parties and glamour, but finds dullness instead. A leaked document about a proposed atomic test in Alberta raises her fears about the arms race and draws her into a local protest group. The stakes are high - if word gets out, there will be outrage from the Soviet Union, and the moratorium between the global nuclear powers will be in jeopardy.

Lena volunteers to organize a protest at the test site, convincing her estranged birthfather to come with her. Tagging along with them is her new boyfriend, a policeman on his own secret mission. When Lena discovers the protest leader in Ottawa wants her to stop the test, she has to decide if this is the right choice, and if she has the courage to pull it off despite the odds stacked against her and the certainty of a prison sentence as her reward for success.

This novel was inspired by a historical reference to disarmers across the globe who took heart with the signing of the Limited Test Ban Treaty by existing and potential nuclear powers in 1963. The fictional events in this novel attempt to show efforts by disarmers who made that treaty possible.

This book aims to help would-be parents and their supporters better understand how pregnancy loss happens, why it is so uniquely traumatic, how experiences of grief and coping can vary, and how sufferers can move forward after these devastating events.

Anyone who has faced the trauma of pregnancy loss--be it a miscarriage, stillbirth, or other experience of heartbreak--knows how lonely, frightening, and overwhelming it can be. These losses, although tragically common, are rarely spoken about, and can leave bereaved would-be parents feeling guilty, shunned, and full of shame. Their friends and family may also feel helpless and unsure of how to react.

Based on personal and clinical experience and a deep understanding of the research on pregnancy loss, Dr. Jaffe offers a personable, supportive, and caring voice to serve as a companion in those long hours of grief. The book aims to help readers reflect on pregnancy loss and grief, and to find ways of coping and a path to healing and change.

Dr. Jaffe focuses on the concept of the reproductive story: the sometimes conscious, but often unconscious hopes and dreams people internalize about becoming a parent. She shows readers how to uncover and recognize their story--as well as their power to edit that story, write new endings, and continue their journey.
