Hidden in the Silence
Journalists don’t just end up dead. Not without someone making it happen. FBI Special Agent Domini Walker is off duty when her friend Vivienne Preston—a fearless investigative reporter—answers a call that ends in terror. Panicked shouting. Shattering glass. Then silence. Minutes later, Viv finds her colleague dead in his Chinatown apartment. The NYPD calls it a break-in gone wrong. Dom calls it what it is: a cover-up. The victim was chasing a story with teeth—one that rattled the wrong cages. Now Dom is picking up the trail. The leads are murky, Viv is shaken, and someone’s keeping tabs on their every move. With her team at her back—razor-sharp analyst Lea Peck and reclusive genius Mila Pascale—Dom starts pulling threads. What she finds is a network of buried secrets, corporate rot, and power structures built to resist exposure. The deeper she digs, the more dangerous it gets. And this time, the next target may be someone she can’t afford to lose. A gritty, emotionally charged FBI thriller perfect for fans of Tana French, Sharon Bolton, and readers who crave sharp characters, dark conspiracies, and justice with teeth. ____________________________________ Praise for the Dom Walker Series: ? “Dom fights for justice—she never backs down.” ? “Reads like a movie.

Benevolence
?How good it is to hear a Darug voice speaking of Darug history.??Kate Grenville, author of The Secret River, winner of the Commonwealth PrizeBlending the mythical power of Téa Obreht and the epic scope of Min Jin Lee, a searing historical novel that tells a story of colonization, survival, and resistance in a way never done before?a beautiful, brilliant, and brutal reimagining of the first contact between Indigenous people and white British settlers and the far-reaching consequences for one Aboriginal girl coming of age in an unsteady and dangerous world.For all known time, Muraging?s people, the Darug, have lived on this land between the river and the sea. But change comes swiftly in the early years of the nineteenth century when White settlers begin to arrive, laying claim to the continent, long inhabited by Aboriginal tribes like Muraging?s, for the British empire. At ten years old, Muraging is given over to the Parramatta Native School by her father, where the missionaries call her Mary James, force her to abandon her culture and language, and teach her subjects they believe will save her soul: English, Christianity, and housework. Six years later, seeking a brighter future, Muraging flees the school, embarking on a journey of discovery and a search for a safe place in an unfamiliar and unsteady new world?an odyssey far more winding and treacherous than she ever dreamed. Spanning two decades, from 1816-1835, and set around the Hawkesbury River area, the home of the Darug people in Parramatta and Sydney, Benevolence sheds light on the heartbreaking violence and erasure of colonization, as well as remarkable survival and resistance?a vivid and compelling portrait of the Aboriginal Australians whose way of life is forever altered. Award-winning Australian writer Julie Janson?s draws on historical events to recreate this pivotal time?things that may have happened to her own ancestors?giving voice to an Aboriginal experience of early-settlement in Australia.

And Then There Was The One
From Martha Waters, the author of the “enchanting” (Entertainment Weekly) Regency Vows series, a new historical romance set in 1930s England with a murder mystery twist. In a quaint village in the Cotswolds, Georgiana Radcliffe has accidentally become an amateur detective after helping solve four murders in a single year. When the chairman of the village council turns up dead, everyone agrees with the official ruling of a heart attack, but Georgie can’t help but suspect that the council chairman is a fifth victim. Now, murder tourists are flocking from around the country, in hopes of becoming sleuths themselves. Along with her reporter friend, she reaches out to a famous London detective for assistance in ascertaining why they have become a magnet for murder. But the fancy detective is simply too busy—or can’t be bothered—to help, and instead dispatches his secretary, Sebastian Fletcher-Ford—a posh womanizer who, truthfully, is just trying to get out of his hair, much to practical, no-nonsense Georgie’s dismay. But as they investigate in the charming Buncombe-upon-Woolly—with plentiful scones, sheep on the village green, and murder tourists at every turn—Georgie finds that her previous assessment of Sebastian may have been wrong, and rather than solving a murder, she may be solving for love instead.
