Eaton N: The Harrow

The Harrow

The funny, gripping thriller shortlisted for The Orwell Prize 2025

INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER!Sisters? Forever. Friends? NEVER. Who knew a reunion weekend could be so deadly? Meet the sorority sisters of Theta Gamma Mu: <ul><li>Roxy Callahan Gentry, the ruthless former sorority president and current hostess who has painstakingly choreographed every detail of this weekend-even matching the cocktails to her couture-to prove that she remains their undisputed queen</li><li>Amelia Dell, the widow drenched in old money and alcohol, with her big pot-stirring spoon and uninvited boy-toy in tow</li><li>Jamie Vale, the double-legacy pledge, straight-A student with no sparkle, now a top cardiologist with a picture-perfect family-and a well-guarded bad habit</li><li>Beth Harrison, the scholarship student who never quite fit in and was only admitted because her best friend Sunny insisted that the two were a package deal</li><li>Sunny Spencer, the carefree and beloved friend to all, or so it seemed-until she wasn't</li></ul> They've been summoned to Roxy's luxurious Palm Springs vacation home to celebrate the engagement of her son to Beth's daughter. But the refurbished 1920s estate is eerily reminiscent of the hotel where tragedy struck during Spring Break twenty-five years ago. Long-simmering tensions and shocking secrets begin bubbling to the surface like bodies-because while the weekend was supposed to be about celebrating the future, it's not so easy to bury the past... For fans of Shari Lapena, Mary Kubica, and B. A. Paris, We Were Never Friends is an unputdownable, riveting train wreck full of dark humor and bad behavior.

We Were Never Friends

Frau Appeldorn

Frau Appeldorn und ihrem Kulturverein ist es gelungen, die große Operndiva Constanze Wegemann zu einem Konzert in die Stadt zu holen. Doch als sie zum Auftritt auf die Bühne kommen soll, findet man sie tot in der Garderobe. Frau Appeldorn erkennt sofort: Es war Mord.

Gemeinsam mit ihrem Nachbarn Alican Büyüktürk macht sie sich daran, die Hintergründe zu ermitteln. Die Diva war als schwierig verschrien und hat sich im Laufe der langen Karriere viel Feinde gemacht. War vielleicht ihr Manager Helmut Lehnert genervt von ihren ständigen Allüren? Wieso erscheint überraschend der ehemalige Geliebte der Sängerin beim Konzert auf?

Je tiefer sie in die Geschehnisse eintauchen, desto mehr Fragen tauchen auf. Aber Frau Appeldorn lässt sich nicht beirren und taucht tief in das Leben der Diva ein. Dabei trägt sie stets ihren roten Hut.

Lost Boys

From USA Today bestselling author Emma Scott comes the second book in an emotional series of interconnected, coming of age YA romances. At Santa Cruz Central High School, they called them the misfits, the outcasts, the weirdos. But most of us knew them as the Lost Boys... Holden Parish survived his parents' horrific attempts to make him "the perfect son." After a year's stint in a Swiss sanitarium to recover, he has vowed to never let anything - or anyone - trap him again. Brilliant but broken, he seeks refuge behind alcohol, meaningless sex, and uses his wicked sense of humour to keep people away. He only has to ride out one year in the coastal town of Santa Cruz with his aunt and uncle before he inherits his billions and can make his escape. Disappear. Falling in love is not in the plans. River Whitmore. Star quarterback of the Central High football team, Prom King, Mr. Popular, ladies' man. He leads the perfect life...except it's all a lie. His father has River's future in the NFL all planned out, while River's dream is to run the family business in the town that he loves. But his mother's illness is tearing the family apart, and River is becoming the glue that holds them together. How can he break his father's heart when it's already shattering? River's carefully crafted façade explodes when he meets Holden Parish. A guy who dresses in coats and scarves year-round, drinks expensive vodka, and spends his free time breaking into houses for the fun of it. They're complete opposites. River seeks a quiet life, away from the spotlight. Holden would rather have dental surgery than settle down. Holden's demons and River's responsibilities threaten to keep them apart, while their undeniable attraction crashes them together again and again, growing into something deep and real no matter how much they resist...until one terrible night changes everything. The second chapter in Emma Scott's interwoven Lost Boys series is a beautiful YA romance that balances angst, humour and raw honesty, culminating in a powerful message of healing and hope.

One Way Witch

Fünf Leben, in denen sich die jüngste europäische Geschichte widerspiegelt

Bosnien Anfang der 90er. Fünf Personen treten vor die Bühne: Zwei Bosniaken, zwei Serben und eine Kroatin. Eindrucksvoll erzählen sie von der Tragik, dem Zauber und den Sehnsüchten in ihrer Heimat. Dabei kreisen ihre Gedanken stets um Familien, um Liebe und ums Überleben. 
"Senada oder Der Tag trägt die Last" vereint diese fünf bewegenden Novellen, die von vielschichtigen Lebensschicksalen aus dem ehemaligen Jugoslawien erzählen. Mit eindringlicher Kraft und sprachlicher Präzision gelingt es Karsten Dümmel, individuelle Erfahrungen von Krieg, Flucht, Verlust und Identität zusammenzuführen und dem Unsagbaren eine Stimme zu geben. Zwischen Zerbrechlichkeit und Widerstandskraft ensteht so ein Raum für Erinnerung und Mitgefühl. Ein Buch, das Brücken schlagen kann und dem Vergessen mutig entgegentritt.

The Girl In Cell A

Devon Mysteries

When Juno Browne purchased a car for her lover, Daniel Thorncroft, she was not expecting that the previous owner would lock a dead body in the boot. Who the dead man could be is a persistent question, as is the whereabouts of the seller, Amber Horrell. While Inspector Ford and the Ashburton police are on the case, Juno's insatiable curiosity and concern for the missing Amber lead her to start sleuthing on her own. It turns out that the Horrells, Amber's family, are notorious in this corner of Devon, with an ancient murder and vanishing red diamond in their past and a shady antiques business very much in their present. With a second murder, Juno's involvement in the investigation becomes more complicated and the line between reality and fiction also become blurred. But the truth, she discovers, is far more complicated than it seems.

How to Get Murdered in Devon

The latest novel from the winner of the 2021 European Union Prize for Literature.

Teddý lives with her parents on a farm in the Icelandic wilderness. It's 1962, and the world is changing, although you wouldn't know it from the stark quiet of the lava fields and mountains that mark the boundaries of the young woman's existence. But after two chance encounters, Teddý's dreams of a world beyond begin to crystallise, albeit in strange and unexpected ways, as we follow one woman's life over five decades, from farm to city to the skies. Taking us from the grandeur of rural Iceland to the glossy, sticky world of 1970s air travel, via check fraud, thwarted ambition and lost astronauts, Boudoir is a novel about reinvention, dislocation, and the forceful gravity of the lives and selves we think we've left behind.

Boudoir

In this hugely original blend of thriller, sci-fi and horror, a trio of Blockbuster employees discover they may be able to change the endings of popular films and, thus, the world around them. The last Blockbuster video store in the United States is hanging on by a thread. And after a crazy night attempting to track down a lost VCR rental to collect the record-setting and internet-famous late fee, three employees, idealistic Eva, cinephile Jerry, and their tyrannical manager Randy, discover that this machine may actually have the power to change the endings of popular films, which, depending on the historical basis of the film, might also be changing the real world around them. Or could this just be an elaborate, increasingly deadly prank? When they begin receiving videotapes and voicemails seemingly depicting their deaths, Eva, Jerry, and Randy scramble to keep the VCR from falling into the wrong hands. And as one action-packed evening begins to seemingly repeat itself (or does it?), scores are settled and unwanted confessions begin to fly, until a Final Girl finally unravels a grand psychological experiment orchestrated at the highest levels of a crumbling social media empire.
