OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK • INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER&nbsp;• SUBJECT OF A SIX-PART SUPER SOUL PODCAST SERIES HOSTED BY OPRAH WINFREY&nbsp;From the New York Times-bestselling author of Cutting for Stone comes a stunning and magisterial epic of love, faith, and medicine, set in Kerala, South India, following three generations of a family seeking the answers to a strange secret“One of the best books I’ve read in my entire life. It’s epic. It’s transportive . . . It was unputdownable!”—Oprah Winfrey, OprahDaily.comThe Covenant of Water&nbsp;is the long-awaited new novel by Abraham Verghese, the author of the major word-of-mouth bestseller Cutting for Stone, which has sold over 1.5 million copies in the United States alone and remained on the New York Times&nbsp;bestseller list for over two years. 
Spanning the years 1900 to 1977,&nbsp;The Covenant of Water&nbsp;is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time. From this unforgettable new beginning, the young girl—and future matriarch, known as Big Ammachi—will witness unthinkable changes over the span of her extraordinary life, full of joy and triumph as well as hardship and loss, her faith and love the only constants.
A shimmering evocation of a bygone India and of the passage of time itself, The Covenant of Water&nbsp;is a hymn to progress in medicine and to human understanding, and a humbling testament to the difficulties undergone by past generations for the sake of those alive today. It is one of the most masterful literary novels published in recent years.

Unfit

I'm infamous for killing someone twenty years ago. Someone I once loved. Lucy Golden is a true crime icon, infamous for killing someone as a teenager while in a cult led by her father. Twenty years later, still coasting on the original success of the memoir she wrote as a teenager, Lucy reluctantly makes a deal with hot documentary filmmaker Isaac Coleman to revisit the trauma of her past. Take a risk. It won't kill you. At The Oasis fifteen-year-old Lucy believed she had finally found acceptance and belonging - only to stumble upon a horrific realization and violently take matters into her own hands... When everyone acts like you have no power, it's important to remind them that you do. Now she must walk a tightrope between feeding Isaac enough material to keep him onside, whilst desperately protecting a long-buried secret that could destroy the story she's been telling and selling all along...

This book will tell the full story of one of the most exciting, dramatic and shocking tales of modern times.

PREORDER THE HEART-STOPPING BOOK EVERYONE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT IN 2024 The extraordinary story that united the nation to bring a mother home On 3 April 2016 Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe was at the airport in Tehran, getting ready to board her flight with her baby daughter. They'd been visiting family in Iran, and were looking forward to getting home and seeing Richard, who would be there to meet them. When a man suddenly appeared and marched Nazanin away, they couldn't know their family was about to be changed forever. That moment would test their love, confront five foreign secretaries and take an ordinary family behind the curtain of international hostage diplomacy and secret debts. Their story galvanised a campaign of hope for millions, which would eventually free Nazanin and bring her home. Six years later, almost to the day, Nazanin landed back in the UK. This is the full account of that long journey, told by Nazanin and Richard for the very first time.

Deception Island

Set in hurricane-ravaged North Carolina, and based on real events, Kill Devil is a gritty, Southern Gothic thriller that will please fans of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Sharp Objects, and The Black Dahlia.

In the days following Hurricane Florence, three boys walk along the beaches of North Carolina’s Barrier Islands. Amidst the wreckage, they stumble upon a wooden box washed up on the shore. And inside that box they find the dismembered remains of a teenage girl. “I saw her teeth,” says one of the boys. “I know she’s real—I saw her teeth.” The grisly scene harkens to a spate of disappearances and unsolved murders from decades past. But with the region clawing to recover from nature’s wrath, the official investigation is delayed and undermanned. And so private investigator Daniel Riley finds himself commissioned by an enigmatic and troubled young woman to make progress where the police can’t—or won’t.
