A Graces Novel

Picking up the pieces after the chilling events of the previous year isn't easy, but the Graces are determined to do it. Wolf is back after a mysterious disappearance, and everyone's eager to return to normal. Except for Summer, the youngest Grace. Summer has a knack for discovering the truth--and something is troubling her. After a trail of clues leads her to what could be the key to both her family's mysterious past and the secret of Wolf, she's determined to vanquish yet another curse. But exposing secrets is a dangerous game, and it's not one Summer can win alone. At Summer's behest, the coven comes back together, reluctantly drawing their erstwhile friend River back into the fold. But Wolf's behavior becomes unpredictable even as Fenrin's strength fades, and Summer must ask herself whether the friend she so loves is also planning her family's ultimate, cursed demise. This riveting sequel to The Graces is saturated with magic, the destructive cost of power, the complications of family, and the nature of forgiveness.

Magical Cat Mystery #9

With a well-placed paw on a keyboard or a pointed stare, Kathleen's two cats, Hercules and Owen, have helped her to solve cases in the past-so she has learned to trust their instincts. But she will need to rely on them more than ever when a twenty-year-old scandal leads to murder...

The arrival of the Janes brothers has the little town of Mayville Heights buzzing. Everyone of a certain age remembers when Victor had an affair with Leo's wife, who then died in a car accident.

Now it seems the brothers are trying to reconcile, until Kathleen finds Leo dead. The police set their sights on Leo's son and Kathleen's good friend Simon, who doesn't have much of an alibi. To prove her friend innocent, Kathleen will have to dig deep into the town's history-and into her sardine cracker supply, because Owen and Hercules don't work for free...

Three Dark Crowns meets Wicked Saints in this queer #ownvoices retelling of "The Firebird," a Russian folktale, by debut author Alexandra Overy. When twin heirs are born in Tourin, their fates are decided at a young age. While Izaveta remained at court to learn the skills she'd need as the future queen, Asya was taken away to train with her aunt, the mysterious Firebird, who ensured magic remained balanced in the realm. But before Asya's training is completed, the ancient power blooms inside her, which can mean only one thing: the queen is dead, and a new ruler must be crowned. As the princesses come to understand everything their roles entail, they'll discover who they can trust, who they can love--and who killed their mother.

Carmer and Grit, Book One

A stunning debut about a magician’s apprentice and a one-winged princess who must vanquish the mechanical monsters that stalk the streets and threaten the faerie kingdom. Aspiring inventor and magician’s apprentice Felix Carmer III would rather be tinkering with his latest experiments than sawing girls in half on stage, but with Antoine the Amazifier’s show a tomato’s throw away from going under, Carmer is determined to win the cash prize in the biggest magic competition in Skemantis. When fate throws Carmer across the path of fiery, flightless faerie princess Grit (do not call her Grettifrida), they strike a deal. If Carmer will help Grit investigate a string of faerie disappearances, she’ll use her very real magic to give his mechanical illusions a much-needed boost against the competition. But Carmer and Grit soon discover they’re not the only duo trying to pair magic with machine – and the combination can be deadly. In this story perfect for readers of the Lockwood & Co and Wildwood series, Sarah Jean Horwitz takes readers on a thrilling journey through a magical wooded fairyland and steampunk streets where terrifying automata cats lurk in the shadows and a mad scientist’s newest mechanical invention might be more menace than miracle.

All eleven-year-old Jason Adrian wanted to do this summer was go to soccer camp with his best friend. The one thing he didn’t want to do was get sent off to Grandma McIntire’s while his stepparents were off on a vacation for two, and his stepsister got to go to a camp that was perfect for her. But when two of the school bullies took Jason out during soccer tryouts, leaving him with a bad sprain that would take far too long to heal, it looked like Grandma McIntire’s was exactly where he was headed. Then opportunity knocked at Jason’s door-or more accurately, it rapped at his window. He probably should have guessed how weird things were going to get when a big crow attacked the window of his attic bedroom, and then went after Jason himself when he was foolish enough to take a look outside. That was the moment when everything started to go wrong. First a fall from the roof, then getting locked out, then the sprain that left him on the sidelines watching other kids being chosen for camp. And the really bizarre thing was that the crow had been clutching a torn off piece of paper with the message: “You may already have won….”But just when Jason was certain he was doomed for the summer, his English teacher, Mrs. Cowling, unexpectedly came to his rescue. Without telling Jason or his family, Mrs. Cowling had entered an essay of Jason’s in a special contest. And now he was being offered the chance to go to Camp Ravenwyng, a small place that was offering a free summer stay to kids with creativity and imagination. It sounded crazy but it was sure better than staying with an old lady who refused to get cable TV and thought jello was the high point of dessert. And with his English teacher’s assurances that it was a wonderful opportunity, even his overprotective stepmother couldn’t refuse. So a few days later Jason found himself boarding a funky little bus with a small group of kids and two very eccentric-looking counselors. The ride to Ravenwyng was the first tip-off that this was not going to be your run-of-the-mill camp, not when they suddenly went from nowhere to somewhere and time itself seemed to become totally confused in the process. And that was only the beginning. Before Jason’s time at Ravenwyng was done, he was going to make some great new friends, encounter some terrifying enemies that were out of this world, and discover things about himself and his own unique talents that he never would have believed. For Camp Ravenwyng was built on the border of some very unusual territory, land that was about to become a battleground between the Ravenwyngers-otherwise know as the Magickers-and their ancient enemies, the Dark Hand of Brennard. And the only chance the Magickers had of winning was if they could teach their new recruits to master their magical powers before the Hand attacked…
