October's new titles include fantastic thrillers: Patricia Cornwell introduces us to her brilliant and unusual
heroine, Captain Calli Chase, in the first book of her new series, and A.J. Banner delivers a novel reminiscent of a classic thriller, set in the Pacific Northwest, that will keep you guessing until the end.
In fiction, you'll find Olivia Hawker's novel inspired by her family's experience on the Wyoming frontier in the late 1800s, Elizabeth Laban's story of
marriage and motherhood, and Louisa Treger's
portrait of
Virginia 'Ginie' Courtauld —an
extraordinary woman in an era of great social and cultural change.
