Shortlisted for General Fiction Book of the Year at the ABIA's 2026 Shortlisted for the Audiobook of the Year at the ABIA's 2026 Shortlisted for the ABA Book of the Year Award 2026 For years the boglands of Northern Europe have given up bodies of the long-deceased. Bodies that are thousands of years old, uncannily preserved. Bodies with strange injuries that suggest ritual torture and human sacrifice. When a corpse is found in a bog in Galway, Cormac Reilly assumes the find is historical. But closer examination reveals a more recent story. The dead man is Thaddeus Grey, a local secondary school principal who disappeared two years prior. There's nothing in Grey's past that would explain why he was murdered, or why his body was mutilated in a ritual manner. At first, progress on the case is frustratingly slow and Cormac struggles to keep his mind on the job. His ex-girlfriend, Emma Sweeney, is in trouble, and she's reached out to him for help - Emma's new husband has gone missing in Paris, and the French police are refusing to open an investigation into his disappearance. Cormac is sure that he has found Grey's killer, and is within hours of an arrest, when another mutilated body is discovered on the other side of the country. Two days later, a third body is found. Press attention is intense. Is there a serial killer at work in Ireland? Has Cormac been on the wrong trail? And if so, can he find the murderer before they strike again?

This might be Elizabeth Strout’s best yet’ CLARE CHAMBERS Artie Dam is a man with a secret. He spends his days teaching history to high schoolers, expanding their young minds, correcting their casual cruelties, and lending a kind word to those who need it most. He goes to holiday parties with his wife of three decades, makes small talk with neighbours, and, on weekends, takes his sailboat out on the beautiful Massachusetts Bay. He is, by all appearances, present and alive. But inside, Artie is plagued by feelings of isolation. He looks out at a world gone mad—at himself and the people around him—and turns a question over and over in his mind: how is it that we know so little about one another, even those closest to us? And then, one day, Artie learns that life has been keeping a secret from him, one that threatens to upend his entire world. Once he learns it, he is forced to chart a new course, to reconsider the relationships he holds most dear—and to make peace with the mysteries at the heart of our existence. With exquisite prose and profound insight, Elizabeth Strout captures the way grief reverberates through decades, the comfort found in deep friendships and the freedom that comes when we break free of our secrets. The Things We Never Say is a stunning new novel from one of our most acclaimed observers of the human heart. *** PRAISE FOR ELIZABETH STROUT: 'A terrific writer' ZADIE SMITH 'A superbly gifted storyteller' HILARY MANTEL 'Elizabeth Strout is one of my very favourite writers' ANN PATCHETT 'She gets better with each book' MAGGIE O'FARRELL 'A beautiful read' OPRAH WINFREY 'Strout is, as ever, wonderfully attentive life's escapable cruelties and woes' SUNDAY TIMES

A pirate’s treasure, lost for decades, lures the greedy and adventurer alike. Did someone commit murder to get their hands on it? When the celebrated biographer of the infamous pirate Blackheart takes a suite at the Mayfair Hotel to live out his final months, Goliath the porter is desperate to ask the one question that has haunted treasure hunters for decades: Where is the loot buried? Forbidden to disturb a guest, he instead visits the man writing the author’s own life story, only to discover him dead at his desk. Accused of the crime, Goliath turns to Cleo and Harry to clear his name. As they investigate, the danger escalates when a description of Goliath is splashed across the front page of the newspapers. It’s only a matter of time before someone connects the hotel porter to the manhunt, and to Harry, who is secretly hiding him. The hotel is already under siege from the press, as word spreads that Blackheart’s biographer is in residence. The tantalizing link between the treasure and the murder fuels a frenzy, disrupting the hotel and driving away high-profile guests. With suspects including a titled heir and a man claiming to be Blackheart’s secret grandson, can Cleo untangle fact from fiction before Goliath is discovered and the hotel’s reputation is ruined? And, more importantly for some, will the location of the hidden treasure finally be revealed?

From the New York Times bestselling author of Empire of Pain and Say Nothing - a stunning story of corruption and tragedy in one of the world's great cities: London. "A new book by Keefe means drop everything and close the blinds; you'll be turning pages for hours" Los Angeles Times 'Patrick Radden Keefe [is] one of the top narrative nonfiction authors of his generation' TIME In 2019, a London teenager, Zac Brettler, mysteriously fell to his death from a luxury apartment building on the banks of the Thames. When his grieving parents began their desperate quest to understand how their son had died, they made a terrible discovery: Zac had been leading a fantasy life, posing as the son of a wealthy Russian oligarch. In his inimitably gripping and forensic prose, Baillie Gifford Prize winner and New Yorker writer Patrick Radden Keefe follows Zac's parents on a dark journey to find out what brought Zac to the balcony that night - and how a teenager's world of make-believe drew him into the city's terrifying underworld. London Falling is at once a devastating family tragedy, a riveting story of greed, power and deception, and an indictment of the culture that has transformed London into a haven for the malignant forces that have come to influence us all.

ANN PATCHETT A magnificent new novel from the bestselling, award-winning author of An American Marriage —a novel that sparkles with wit, intelligence and deep feeling about two lifelong friends whose worlds collide in the face of a devastating tragedy. Vernice and Annie, two motherless daughters raised in Honeysuckle, Louisiana, have been best friends and neighbours since earliest childhood, but are fated to live starkly different lives. Raised by a fierce aunt determined to give her a stable home in the wake of her mother’s death, Vernice leaves Honeysuckle at eighteen for Atlanta, where she joins a sisterhood of powerfully connected Black women and discovers a world of affluence, manners, aspiration and inequality. Annie, abandoned by her mother as a child, and fixated on the idea of finding her, sets off on a journey that will take her into a world of peril and adversity, as well as love and adventure, culminating in a battle for her life. A novel about mothers and daughters, friendship and sisterhood, and the complexities of being a woman in the American South, Kin is an exuberant, emotionally rich, unforgettable work from one of the brightest and most irresistible voices in contemporary fiction.

WINNER OF THE CRIME WRITERS' ASSOCIATION DIAMOND DAGGER AWARD 2017 Ann Cleeves Classic Crime - engaging mysteries to savour, beloved characters to meet again A Bird in the Hand is the first novel featuring George and Molly Palmer-Jones by Ann Cleeves, author of the Shetland and Vera Stanhope crime series. In England's birdwatching paradise, a new breed has been sighted-a murderer . . . Young Tom French was found dead, lying in a marsh on the Norfolk coast, with his head bashed in and his binoculars still around his neck. One of the best birders in England, Tom had put the village of Rushy on the birdwatching map. Everyone liked him. Or did they? George Palmer-Jones, an elderly birdwatcher who decided quietly to look into the brutal crime, discovered mixed feelings aplenty. Still, he remained baffled by a deed that could have been motivated by thwarted love, pure envy, or something else altogether. But as he and his fellow "twitchers" flocked from Norfolk to Scotland to the Scilly Isles, in response to rumours of rare sightings, George-with help from his lovely wife, Molly-gradually discerned the true markings of a killer. All he had to do was prove it . . . before the murderer strikes again.

She's the one girl he shouldn't want . . . Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there's no logical reason why I'm so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don't usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I'm flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn't help that he's buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we're roommates? I suppose it doesn't matter. Fitzy has made it clear he's not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I'm not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I'm not about to start. I've got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he's missing? He knows where to find me. *** Why fans love Elle Kennedy ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐! 'Delicious, complicated and drama-filled . . .

Until the day she gets a call that sends her racing back to Barry's Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek - the man she never thought she'd have to live without. For six summers, through hazy afternoons on the water and warm summer nights working in his family restaurant and curling up together with books, Percy and Sam had been inseparable.

But resisting his easy charm and surfer-boy hotness is darn near impossible. Though I'm realizing there's much more to Conor's story than his fan club can see.

Schwab, known for The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue and Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil, proposed an absurd idea to longtime friend and screenwriter Cat Clarke: that they should write a book together. Victoria had made quite a name for herself, but had sworn she’d never co-write a novel. While Cat, following a tumultuous career as an editor and the author of several YA novels, including Girlhood and Entangled, had fled the publishing industry to work in the even more tumultuous film industry, swearing she’d never return to books. And yet, fate – and an irresistible idea – made liars of them both. That night, Evelyn Clarke was born.

Every fifty years, the gates between them open, and fifty challengers are allowed to journey across Starside on a deadly quest for magic that can heal, grant wealth or extend life.

Five years ago I buried my husband. Today I saw him with his new wife.    ‘Thank you for agreeing to be our wedding planner. Theo is on his way,’ Madison says as we meet to plan her dream wedding. The moment her fiancé enters the room, a newborn baby in his arms, my whole world shifts and I grab hold of my desk to stop myself from falling.    Theo shakes my hand as he introduces himself, but I already know who he is. He’s my husband. The man I thought had died five years ago.    ‘Lovely to meet you, Eva,’ he says, carefully avoiding my frozen stare.

A rich, immersive, funny and heartbreaking memoir of the charming bookseller who runs three tiny bookshops in the remote village of Manapouri in Fiordland, in the deep south of New Zealand. 'An extraordinary story.' Shaun Bythell, The Diary of a Bookseller Ruth Shaw weaves together stories of the characters who visit her bookshops, musings about favourite books, and bittersweet stories from her full and varied life. She's sailed through the Pacific for years, been held up by pirates, worked at Sydney's Kings Cross with drug addicts and prostitutes, campaigned on numerous environmental issues, and worked the yacht Breaksea Girl with her husband, Lance. Underlining all her wanderings and adventures are some very deep losses and long-held pain. Balancing that out is her beautiful love story with Lance, and her delightful sense of humour. This will make you weep and make you laugh and make you want to read more books - and make you want to visit Ruth and her two wee bookshops. ' Shaw's writing is pragmatic and restrained; her voice is so strong and assured that when grief appears you gasp at its intrusion and your heart stops a second. ' Alexa Dretzke, Readings Hawthorn 'Amazing! ' Jack Tame, Newstalk ZB 'A fascinating, funny and moving story.' Nicky Pellegrino, New Zealand Woman's Weekly 'Shaw can write about these peaks and troughs [of her life] without a skerrick of maudlin introspection or mawkishness. Battered and emotionally bruised, she marches on. In a word, dauntless, and it's exactly this quality that makes this memoir so readable.' Chris Moore, NZ Listener 'Utterly charming and filled with equal measures of heartbreak and humour, Ruth Shaw's memoir will have you booking the first flight to New Zealand to share a cup of tea at her Wee Bookshops. Shaw has been a cook, a nurse, sailor and world traveller, and endured immeasurable loss. But with Lance, the love of her life, Shaw has found her place bookselling in Fiordland. 'Booksellers' Choice Australia 'Compelling. Shaw tells her own story free of over-sentimentality or self-pity; she's straightforward, frequently humorous... Her resilience, optimism and willingness to help others is to be admired; her remarkable story is to be read and reflected upon as it adds another vital perspective to a NZ life.'

NOW THEY FACE THE WOMAN. The ice is advancing, the Corridor narrowing, and the empire is under siege from the Scithrowl in the east and the Durns in the west. Everywhere, the emperor’s armies are in retreat. Nona faces the final challenges that must be overcome if she is to become a full sister in the order of her choice.

This is no pretty, flowery tale, but one of vastly different people struggling to survive when a hostile government comes to power’ #1 New York Times bestselling author Tamora Pierce ‘This is a book very distinct from everything that came before; what it has in common though is a narrative that pulls no punches, and characters that are beautifully, brokenly, repellently, cleverly human’ Sci-Fi and Fantasy Reviews ‘I had never thought it was possible to find a greater character than the Emperor Jorg Ancrath. I had never even slightly considered that there might be a fantasy world out there toppling that of Τhe Final Empire, and most definitely, I had never thought that I could love a book more than The Night Angel. But here we are’ BookNest ‘Any other author is going to have to smack the ball way, way out of the park to top this read’ Parmenion Books About the author Mark Lawrence was born in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, to British parents but moved to the UK at the age of one.

Molly Henderson drove up to Paradise Valley for forty-eight hours to sell her uncle's cabin and drive back to her bar in Livingston by Saturday night. Instead she found Sawyer Wrangel on the roof, replacing shingles like he belonged there. Which, inconveniently, he does. Cal rented him the cabin six months ago. Sawyer has a lease through February, a truck under the cottonwoods, and no intention of moving because the woman with the U-Haul and the temper says she has plans. Molly owns The Bad Penny, a Livingston bar held together by regulars, stubbornness, and whatever she can still fix with her own two hands. Sawyer is a former fire-jumper who walked out of last year's season and landed in Paradise Valley because quiet looked better than smoke. She picks a fight instead of asking a question. He says he is fine about the one thing he is not fine about. By the time the first frost hits and the cabin's single bed starts making decisions for them, neither of them is operating on the plan they brought. Bar Fight is Paradise Valley book three: autumn weather, one-bed tension, bar-owner competence, and four explicit scenes for readers of Kristen Ashley, Maisey Yates, and Lauren Landish.

He crashes from the sky in a blaze of light. She sees it. He doesn't remember a thing. Lily hasn't spoken to another human in five years. After the people she loved most shattered her trust, she vanished into the Alaskan mountains and built a life where no one can touch her again. A tiny shack. A rifle. The silence. That's all she needs. Until the night the sky splits open. She follows the falling light and finds him, a gorgeous, wounded man half-buried in snow, surrounded by wolves circling for the kill. She knows he didn't just "get lost." Men don't fall from the heavens. But he doesn't remember who he is… or what he used to be. Lily drags him back to her shack, strips off his frozen clothes, and warms him with her own body. She tells herself it's survival. Only survival. But the way he groans at her touch— The way his hands find her hips even in his restless sleep— The way he watches her with raw, hungry fascination once he wakes… Nothing about this is innocent. Prophet may not remember his name, but his body remembers her. Her scent. Her skin. Her voice—rough from years of silence—stirring something deep and primal inside him. He doesn't know he was once an angel. He doesn't know he served the Kings of Anarchy MC as their quiet, lethal Chaplain. He doesn't know something ruthless is tracking him across the mountains. But Lily does. Because tucked inside the snow where she found him was his cut. A heavy leather marked with a name he doesn't recognize and a club she's only heard whispers about. She hid it. She hasn't told him. She's not sure she should. But when the danger hunting him finally reaches her remote mountains… When it threatens the fragile connection growing between them… Lily knows she might have only one choice left: Reveal the truth.

Casey treats Landon like an old friend, even though they've only interacted briefly in the past. He's endlessly charming and completely laid-back in a way that Landon absolutely can't relate to.

As roommates, Casey refuses to be defeated by Landon's one-word answers. As friends, Landon starts to notice a few things about Casey, like his wide, easy smile and sparkling green-blue eyes. Spending the holidays together only intensifies their bromance-turned-romance. But as the new year approaches, the countdown to the end of Landon's time in Calgary is on. Need more Rachel Reid?!

Her longtime crush and first ever kiss (who just happens to be newly-divorced) will be on board, and she decides to woo him during the cruise for some long-delayed closure. Only problem is, her sister's a little busy being a bride at the moment-so JoJo ropes in her childhood bestie, Cooper, to be her wing man. Cooper: who RSVPed no, but then showed up, anyway. Cooper: who left town without a word four years earlier and moved to London. Cooper: who was, if she's honest, the worst heartbreak of JoJo's life.
