Summer's Never Over (2026)
Darby Bozeman
"Darby Bozeman has the perfect beach read in this sinister summer camp thriller, where the paradisical woods of Dread's Cove hide not only hot bodies and cold waters, but dark secrets. Summer's Never Over is like the best campfire s'mores: layered, singed by flame around the edges, a little dark, a little sweet, and a whole lot addictive. Thriller lovers will gobble this up."

The Last Time We Saw Her (2026)
Jaclyn Goldis
"The Last Time I Saw Her is a brilliant, sharply-written destination thriller that ingeniously combines two cherished tropes - an exotic setting and a documentary poised to unravel a cold case - into a book that delivers on every level, narrated by an incredible cast of characters, each with their own compelling voice. Juicy secrets, tension that simmers on every page, and a stunning conclusion make this a can't-miss book. Jaclyn Goldis just became an auto-buy author for me. What a star!"

The Disaster Gay Detective Agency (2026)
Lev AC Rosen
"There is no cast I'd rather solve mysteries with than these clever, fierce, hilarious, and endearing disasters, characters bursting with heart and laugh-out-loud wit. While these detectives might be messes (complimentary), Rosen is at the top of his game, crafting not only a brilliant mystery but an ensemble that radiates queer joy and freedom. A balm for the soul and a knockout suspense."
