Kennedy T: Welcome to Redemption

Welcome to Redemption

A college professor is offered a chance at redemption—if he can figure out the right thing to do in this thoughtful psychological thriller from the author of The Surrogate.Sociology professor Matthew Larkin is barely holding on. After the death of his toddler son, his wife divorced him, his teenage daughter abandoned him, and he lost a job he loved. Landing a rare tenure track position at a small college in southern Minnesota, he’s trying to cope with the disaster his life has become.While driving down an empty highway in the middle of nowhere one gloomy Sunday evening, Matthew gets caught in a hailstorm. Pulling off the road to find shelter, he spies a disturbing sight. Caught in the car’s headlights is a child curled up beneath a plastic tarp. The boy is alive but unconscious, soaked to the bone and possibly hypothermic. Knowing an ambulance would take too long to reach them, Matthew impulsively puts the boy in his car, intending to get medical help.On the way, the boy awakens and becomes agitated, begging Matthew not to take him to a hospital or to call the police. Matthew sympathizes with the panicked boy, who looks to be the same age his son would have been. Overcome by longing, grief, and a need to make sense of everything that’s happened to him, Matthew makes a dangerous choice—risking everything for a chance to face his past, move on from the pain, and forgive both his family and himself.&nbsp;

The Good Samaritan

Beartown Series

Del autor de Gente ansiosa y Un hombre llamado Ove, bestsellers del New York Times.En el transcurso de dos semanas, todo cambiará en Beartown.Han pasado dos años desde aquellos sucesos que nadie quiere recordar. Todos han intentado seguir adelante, pero hay algo en este lugar que lo impide. La destrucción causada por una feroz tormenta de finales de verano reaviva la vieja rivalidad entre Beartown y el pueblo vecino de Hed, una rivalidad que siempre se ha librado a través de sus equipos de hockey sobre hielo.Maya Andersson y Benji Ovich, dos jóvenes que se marcharon de Beartown en busca de una vida mejor, vuelven a casa y se reencuentran con sus mejores amigos de la infancia. En el pueblo se respira una nueva sensación de optimismo y determinación, encarnada en la nueva e impresionante pista de hielo que se ha construido junto al lago.Los padres de Maya, por su parte, se ven envueltos en una investigación sobre las turbias finanzas del club de hockey; y Amat —quien fuera la estrella del equipo de Beartown— ha perdido el rumbo tras una lesión y un intento fallido de entrar en la NHL. Las tensiones latentes entre los dos pueblos se convierten en intimidación y violencia. Mientras tanto, un chico de catorce años se aleja cada vez más de esta comunidad obsesionada con el hockey y está decidido a vengarse de las personas a las que considera responsables de la muerte de su querida hermana. Tiene un arma y un plan que dejará a Beartwon con una pérdida que es casi más de lo que puede soportar.&nbsp;-----Return&nbsp;to the close-knit, resilient community of Beartown with this “engrossing page-turner” (Woman’s World) about first loves, second chances, and last goodbyes—from the #1&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author of&nbsp;Anxious People&nbsp;and&nbsp;A Man Called Ove. Over the course of two weeks, everything in Beartown will change. Two years have passed since the events that no one wants to think about. Everyone has tried to move on, but there’s something about this place that prevents it. The destruction caused by a ferocious late-summer storm reignites the old rivalry between Beartown and the neighboring town of Hed, a rivalry which has always been fought through their ice hockey teams. Maya Andersson and Benji Ovich, two young people who left in search of a better life, come home and joyfully reunite with their closest childhood friends. There is a new sense of optimism and purpose in the town, embodied in the impressive new ice rink that has been built down by the lake. Maya’s parents, meanwhile, are caught up in an investigation of the hockey club’s murky finances, and Amat—once the star of the Beartown team—has lost his way after an injury and a failed attempt to get drafted into the NHL. Simmering tensions between the two towns turn into acts of intimidation and then violence. All the while, a fourteen-year-old boy grows increasingly alienated from this hockey-obsessed community and is determined to take revenge on the people he holds responsible for his beloved sister’s death.&nbsp;

Laughton Rees

In this gripping suspense novel from the bestselling author of the Sanctus trilogy, lead forensic expert Laughton Rees is back, this time investigating a series of missing women in a small town near the Forest of Dean—where she uncovers a dark and sinister plot, decades in the making.Never go back into the woods. Never go back and never look back…Midsummer’s Eve. Bonfires dot the English countryside and flicker in the ancient Forest of Dean as costumed revelers dance and drink the night away.But when the sun rises, a local girl, Maddie Friar, has vanished, last seen heading to a party in a forest commune called “The Clearing.” Her sister Adele reports her missing but the local police say Maddie was a known party girl and probably ran off with some boy, or maybe the “Cinderman” got her, referring to a local legend of a forest spirit said to haunt the woods in search of a lost daughter.Eminent criminologist and academic Dr. Laughton Rees also knows about the Cinderman. She has found dozens of historical missing persons cases in these woods, all women, all attributed to this legend. But she doesn’t believe in legends; she believes in facts, so she heads to the forest and, with help from Adele, starts questioning everyone, from the mysterious Earl, lord of the crumbling abbey in the heart of the forest, to the charismatic leader of The Clearing.But as Laughton slowly begins to unravel the legend of the Cinderman and realizes it is bound by blood to Adele and Maddies’ dark past, she also discovers too late that the truth is far uglier, and far more dangerous, than any mythical monster.

City in Ruins

Inspired by true events, a thrilling Depression-era novel from the author of&nbsp;The Librarian of Burned Books&nbsp;about a woman's quest to uncover a mystery surrounding a local librarian and the Boxcar Library?a converted mining train that brought books to isolated rural towns in Montana.

Inspired by true events, a thrilling Depression-era novel from the author of&nbsp;The Librarian of Burned Books&nbsp;about a woman’s quest to uncover a mystery surrounding a local librarian and the Boxcar Library—a converted mining train that brought books to isolated rural towns in Montana.When Works Progress Administration (WPA) editor Millie Lang finds herself on the wrong end of a potential political scandal, she’s shipped off to Montana to work on the state’s American Guide Series—travel books intended to put the nation’s destitute writers to work. Millie arrives to an eclectic staff claiming their missed deadlines are due to sabotage, possibly from the state’s powerful Copper Kings who don’t want their long and bloody history with union organizers aired for the rest of the country to read. But Millie begins to suspect that the answer might instead lie with the town’s mysterious librarian, Alice Monroe. More than a decade earlier, Alice Monroe created the Boxcar Library in order to deliver books to isolated mining towns where men longed for entertainment and connection. Alice thought she found the perfect librarian to staff the train car in Colette Durand, a miner’s daughter with a shotgun and too many secrets behind her eyes.&nbsp;Now, no one in Missoula will tell Millie why both Alice and Colette went out on the inaugural journey of the Boxcar Library, but only Alice returned. The three women’s stories dramatically converge in the search to uncover what someone is so desperately trying to hide: what happened to Colette Durand.Inspired by the fascinating, true history of Missoula’s Boxcar Library, the novel blends the story of the strong, courageous women who survived and thrived in the rough and rowdy West with that of the power of standing together to fight for workers’ lives. And through it all shines the capacity of books to provide connection and light to those who need it most.
