Those People Behind Us (2023)
Mary Camarillo
"The stakes are high and the ground unstable in the fictional town of Wellington Beach where even a real estate agent's seemingly innocuous pamphlets are loaded with undercurrents of significance and menace. Yet Camarillo's novel offers hope, and, because of her facility with characters, I found myself unabashedly rooting for the fallible and suffering Wellington community."
