Deborah Goodrich Royce’s Reef Road (debuting in January 2023) 

When a severed hand washes ashore in the wealthy enclave of Palm Beach, Florida, the lives of two women—a lonely writer obsessed with the unsolved murder of her mother’s best friend and a panicked wife whose husband has disappeared with their children—collide as the world shutters in the pandemic lockdown of 2020.

Luanna Rice’s The Shadow Box 

The Amazon Charts bestselling author of Last Day delivers a haunting thriller about how far one wife is willing to go to expose the truth—and the lengths someone will go to stop her.

Aggie Blum Thompson’s I Don’t Forgive You 

Perfect for book clubs or the beach, Aggie Blum Thompson’s I Don’t Forgive You is a page-turning, thrilling debut “not to be missed.” -Wendy Walker

Stewart O’Nan’s Ocean State 

Set in a working-class town on the Rhode Island coast, O’Nan’s latest is a crushing, beautifully written, and profoundly compelling novel about sisters, mothers, and daughters, and the terrible things love makes us do.

John David Mann’s Cold Fear

“A brilliant blend of procedural mystery and geopolitical thriller,” (Jeffery Deaver) from the New York Times bestselling writing team Webb & Mann, combat-decorated Navy SEAL Brandon Webb and award-winning author John David Mann.

Christa Carmen’s We Are Providence: Tales of Horror from the Ocean State

A terrifying collection of short stories set in Rhode Island, home of the weird, the hometown of horror, the haunted, and the hunted.
