J T Ellison recommends

Fog and Fury (2025)
(Haven , book 1)
Rachel Howzell Hall
"Rachel Howzell Hall has done it again with Fog and Fury. This is a story with depth, heart, and terror, and it cements her as one of the strongest voices in crime fiction today. Newly minted PI Alyson 'Sonny' Rush is a character to root for. Add in her extended family, the dark secrets in the town of Haven, the messy relationships and social growing pains, all at once familiar and frightening, and you have the recipe for a stellar thriller. Don't miss it!"

Splinter Effect (2025)
(Splinter Effect, book 1)
Andrew Ludington
"A smart, inventive, wildly original adventure featuring a chrono-archeologist who is tasked with going back in time to save a famed menorah from ancient Rome, Splinter Effect combines time travel, archeology, history, and a dash of romance to great effect. Fans of Indiana Jones will flock to this rollicking story. A superb debut!"
thumb
Gothictown (2025)
Emily Carpenter
"Carpenter has a spectacular voice, and I was drawn into this story immediately. With all the gothic spookiness layered into a suspenseful family drama, this pulse-racing story of a New York family relocating to an idyllic southern town with a dark secret is timely, intense, and terrifyingly good."
