USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR
True crime writer Wylie Lark doesn’t mind being snowed in at the farmhouse where she’s
retreated to write her new book. It would be perfect, if not for the fact that decades earlier,
at this very house, two people were murdered and a girl disappeared without a trace. As
the storm worsens, Wylie finds herself trapped inside the house, haunted by the secrets
contained within its walls — haunted by secrets of her own. When she discovers a child in
the snow just outside, she brings the child inside and begins to search for answers. Soon it
becomes clear that the farmhouse isn’t as isolated as she thought, and someone is willing to
do anything to find them.

CUBA
AN AMERICAN HISTORY
Ada Ferrer
“A fluid, consistently informative history of the long, inextricable link between Cuba and the U.S., well rendered
by a veteran Cuban American historian.” — starred, Kirkus
In 1961, at the height of the Cold War, the United States severed diplomatic relations with
Cuba, where a momentous revolution had taken power three years earlier. The stand-off
continued through the 50-year rule of Fidel Castro. His death in 2016 spurred questions
about the country’s future. Meanwhile, politics in Washington have made the relationship
between the two nations a subject of debate once more. Now, award-winning historian Ada
Ferrer delivers an ambitious and moving chronicle written for a moment that demands a new
reckoning with both the island’s past and its relationship with the United States.

THE OTHER ME
Sarah Zachrich Jeng
“Jeng’s debut is a page-turner with well-developed characters . . . A good pick for fans of modern women’s
fiction about controlling one’s destiny.” — Library Journal
One minute Kelly’s a free-spirited artist in Chicago going to her best friend’s art show. The
next, she opens a door and mysteriously emerges in her Michigan hometown. Suddenly
her life is unrecognizable: She's got 12 years of the wrong memories in her head, and she's
married to Eric, a man she barely knew in high school. In this life, she loves Eric and wants to
trust him, but everything she discovers about him tells her she shouldn't. The closer Kelly gets
to putting the pieces together, the more her reality seems to shift. If she can't figure out what
happened, the next change could cost her everything.

“Satisfying . . . [It] will please fans of police procedural.” — Kirkus
In the coronary care unit at one of Copenhagen’s leading medical centers, a nurse fills a
syringe with an overdose of heart medication and stealthily enters the room of an older male
patient. Six days earlier, a paperboy on his route stumbles upon the naked body of a dead
woman lying in a fountain. Cause of death? Exsanguination — the draining of all the blood in
her body. Investigator Jeppe Kørner takes on the case. As the investigation ventures into dark
corners, it uncovers the ambition and greed that festers beneath the surface of caregiving
institutions — all the more shocking for their depravity — and what Jeppe discovers will turn
his blood as cold as ice.
