THE GLASS WOMAN
by
Alice McIlroy
When you wake up without your memories, who can you really trust?
Pioneering scientist Iris Henderson chose to be her own first test-subject for an experimental therapy, placing a piece of technology into her brain. At least, this is what everyone tells her. Trouble is, Iris is now without her memories so she doesn't know what the therapy is or why she would ever decide to volunteer for it.
Everyone warns her to leave it alone,but Iris doesn't know who to trust, As she scratches beneath the surface of her seemingly happy marriage and successful career, a catastrophic chain of events is set in motion. Secrets will be revealed that have the capacity to destroy her whole life, but Iris can't stop digging.
The Glass woman's expected release is on January 2nd 2024 by publishers Datura Books
WOMB CITY
by
Tlotlo Tsamaase
But
the secret claws its way into Nelah's life from the grave. As her
victim's vengeful ghost begins exacting a bloody revenge on everyone
Nelah holds dear, she'll have to unravel her society's terrible
secrets to stop those in power, and become a monster unlike any other
to quench the ghost's violent thirst.
Nelah seems to have it all: wealth, fame, a husband, and a child on the way. But in a body her husband controls via a microchip and the tailspin of a loveless marriage, her hopes and dreams come to a devastating halt. A drug fuelled night of celebration ends in a hit-and-run. To dodge a sentencing in a society that favours men, Nelah and her side-piece, Janith Koshal, finish the victim off and bury the body.
But the secret claws its way into Nelah's life from the grave. As her victim's vengeful ghost begins exacting a bloody revenge on everyone Nelah holds dear, she;ll have to unravel her society's terrible secrets to stop those in power, and become a monster unlike any other to quench the ghost's violent thirst.
Womb City's expected release is on January 23rd 2024 by publishers Erewon Books
AVA ANNA ADA
by
Ali Miller
The between days were days of pure white heat.
Summer is swelling around the village. Heat is surging, people are whispering about a great hungry wave and in the garden Anna is kicking her dying dog on the grass.
But someone is watching her. The Girl. Ava.
Outside, the brutal summer blisters on. Inside over the course of one claustrophobic week, Anna and Ava become caught in their own world. Become swallowed by each otherness. But what does Ava really want.
As faces fray and secrets splinter, the past casts the presents anew, and Anna and Ava are forced to reckon with who they truly are. Because who we are, Ava Anna Ada warns us, is not always the same as what we are to each other.
Ava Anna Ada's expected release is on January 18th 2024 by Publishers Orion Publishing group Limited.
