NEW BOOKS

Angel of Vengeance by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child. A desperate bargain is broken… Constance Greene confronts Manhattan’s most dangerous serial killer, Enoch Leng, bartering for her sister’s life – but she is betrayed and turned away empty-handed, incandescent with rage. A clever trap is set… Unknown to Leng, Pendergast’s brother, Diogenes, appears unexpectedly, offering to help-for mysterious reasons of his own.

An Insignificant Case by Phillip Margolin. When a minor theft case becomes a major double homicide and more, Charlie Webb — an insignificant lawyer assigned to an insignificant case — is faced with the most important, and deadliest, case of his life.

Christmas in Bethel by Richard Paul Evans. Leigh Beth Stilton has never liked the holidays. After growing up in an unstable home, escaping an abusive marriage, and witnessing daily tragedies as an EMT, Leigh just can’t bring herself to care about Christmas cheer. In fact, she’s so convinced she’s not worth loving that one winter’s eve, she decides she can’t go on—until she comes across a book called Bethel and starts to read.

The House of Cross by James Patterson. Supreme Court candidates are being murdered—and only Alex Cross and John Sampson can take the case in The House of Cross.

If Only I Had Told Her by Laura Nowlin. If Only I Had Told Her is a love story brimming with truth, tragedy, and the unexpected bonds that heal us.

The Mirror: The Lost Bride Trilogy by Nora Roberts. When Sonya MacTavish inherits the huge Victorian mansion on the coast of Maine, she has no idea that the house is haunted. The footsteps she hears at night, the doors slamming, the music playing, are not figments of her imagination. In her dreams she sees glimpses of the past. In the present she finds portraits of brides. And when she has visions of an antique mirror, she is drawn to it, sensing it holds dark family secrets.
