The Senator's Wife

by

Liv Constantine

In this town, anyone is replaceable....


After a tragic chain of events led to the deaths of their spouses two years ago, D.C. Philanthropist Sloane Chase and Senator Wit Montgomery are finally starting to move on. The horrifying ordeal drew them together, and now they're ready to settle down again—with each other.


As Sloane returns to the world of White house dinners and political small talk, this time with her new husband, She's also preparing for an upcoming hip replacement-- the latest reminder of the Lupus diagnosis shes managed since her twenties. With both of their hectic schedules, they decide hiring a home health aide will give Sloane the support and independence she needs post-surgery. And they find the perfect fit in Athena Karras.


Seemingly a godsend, Athena tends to Sloane, and even helps her run her charitable foundation, But Sloane slowly begins to deteriorate—a complication, Athena explains o Sloane's Lupus. As weeks go by, Sloane becomes sicker, and her uncertainty quickly turns to paranoia as she begins to suspect the worst. Why is Athena asking her so many probing questions about her foundation—about her past? And could Sloane be imagining the sultry looks between Athena and her new husband?.

The Ferryman

by

Justin Cronin

Founded by the mysterious genius known as the designer, the archipelago lies hidden from the horrors of a deteriorating outside world. In this island paradise, Prospera's lucky citizens enjoy, long, fulfilling lives until the monitors embedded in their forearms, meant to measure their physical health and psychological well-being, fall below 10 %. Then they retire themselves, embarking on a Ferry ride to the island known as the Nursery, where their failing bodies are renewed, their memories are wiped clean, and they are readied to restart life afresh.

Proctor Bennet, of the Department of Social Contracts, has a satisfying career as a ferryman, gently shepherding people through the retirement process-- and, when necessary, enforcing it. But all is not well with Proctor. For one thing, he's been dreaming-- which is supposed to be impossible in Prospera. For another, his monitor percentage has begun to drop alarmingly fast. And then comes the day he is summoned to retire his own father, who gives him a disturbing and cryptic message before being wrestled into the ferry.


Meanwhile, something is stirring. The Support Staff, Ordinary men and women who provide the labour to keep Prospedia running, have begun to question their place in the social order, Unrest is building, and there are rumours of a resistance group-- known as the “Arrivalists”-- who may just e fomenting revolution.


Soon Proctor finds himself questioning everything he once believed, entangled with a much bigger cause than he realized—and on a desperate mission to uncover the truth.

Martha Wells


After being murdered, his consciousness dormant and unaware of the passing of time while confined in an elaborate water trap, Kai wakes to find a lesser mage attempting to harness Kai's magic to his advantage. Tat was never going to go well.


But why was Kai imprisoned in the first place? What has changed in the world since his assassination? And why does the Rising World Coalition appear to be growing in influence?.


Kai will need to pull his allies close and draw on all his pain magic if he is to answer even the least of these questions.


He's not going to like the answers.
