KIES, THOMAS RANDOM ROAD (GENEVA CHASE, NO 1) Poisoned Pen Press 2017 1464208026 / 9781464208027 PAPERBACK . Poisoned Pen Press 5/2/2017. New paperback. Store pick: Geneva Chase is a crime reporter and a good one. But to say she is flawed and damaged is an understatement. She has a problem with alcohol and a problem with men – three marriages and currently in love with a married man. She is barely holding on to the only job she could land with a small time paper in CT when a horrific crime occurs. Six people are found naked and hacked to death in a very rich and upscale community called Connor’s Landing. While the murders and the other crimes that are occurring in the town are a major part of the story Genie herself is the other part. She is tough and gutsy and in spite of all she has been through in life she is optimistic and barrels through adversity like it doesn’t exist. She tends to see the world through ‘vodka’ colored glasses but in spite of that she is also a surprisingly likeable character and I can’t wait to see more of her. -Nancy M., store volunteer

KIM, ANGIE MIRACLE CREEK: A NOVEL Picador 2020 1250251303 / 9781250251305 PAPERBACK . Picador 4/7/2020. New paperback. On sale 4/7/20. Pre-order today! Store pick: Wow! What a powerful story and terrific courtroom drama from a debut novelist. Kim’s background as a trial lawyer and a teen aged immigrant from Korea really brought to life the struggles the Yoo family faced trying to get to America for the sake of their daughter and made the courtroom drama so intense that you wished you were there to hear the lawyers’ interrogations in person. She also gave a very heartbreaking look at what parents of special needs children go through and the controversial decisions they must make every day. Miracle Creek is a remarkably written story about families and what sacrifices are made and what lies are told to try and protect those near and dear. But, the lies – which seemed harmless by themselves – stacked up like dominoes and soon cascaded to a tragic end, a tragic end that might not have happened if just one small seemingly insignificant act or one small seemingly insignificant lie had not occurred. -Nancy M., store volunteer
