Description Things Too Big To Name by Molly Best Tinsley


Margaret Torrens trades academia for early retirement and the solitude of a cabin in the Oregon mountains. Four months later, she is locked in a ward for the criminally insane undergoing assessment, and a charge of murder is in the air. Pried out of her by an impatient young psychologist, Margaret’s story features Jane Farrow–a former student, who showed up at the cabin uninvited with an odd, mute child in tow–and Victor–Margaret’s alleged victim, who put his claim on both. As Margaret works to control this narrative of the recent past, she is waylaid by secrets, borne by the ghost of her young husband, lost decades before.

Guest Review Things Too Big To Name by Molly Best Tinsley


Guest review by Bessie Z.

“Things Too Big To Name” by Molly Best Tinsley begins with the equivalent of an authorial punch. The main character, Margaret, is driving down a dark highway when she hits a deer. Confused and disoriented, she manages to make it back to her house where she is immediately confronted by what may (or may not) be the spirit of her late husband. What follows after this is nearly 300 pages of a fascinating descent into Margaret’s mind as she questions her sanity and everything that she has come to know as true throughout her life.

This book was so well written that there were points where it had me questioning my own sanity. I’ve never read Tinsley’s work before, but she has such a seemingly effortless way of twisting and turning a narrative so it distracts you just enough that her well-toned action scenes can sneak up behind you and rob you blind. You can bet I’ll be tracking down more of her books after this! What an exciting and enthralling reading experience this was all around. This is the kind of book that leaves you thinking about it for a long time afterward.

Tinsley’s short, clipped sentences and respect of the reader’s intelligence is exactly my cup of tea in a novel. I’m not sure what else I can say except that I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for something that will keep you guessing and that you absolutely cannot put down until it’s finished. I know I couldn’t. I give this book +5stars.

Stranger Inside by Lisa UngerStranger Inside by Lisa Unger


Thanks to Roxanne Jones of Park Row Books/Harper Collins, I am giving away one print copy of ‘Stranger Inside’ by Lisa Unger.

Description Stranger Inside by Lisa Unger


Even good people are drawn to do evil things…

Twelve-year-old Rain Winter narrowly escaped an abduction while walking to a friend’s house. Her two best friends, Tess and Hank, were not as lucky. Tess never came home, and Hank was held in captivity before managing to escape. Their abductor was sent to prison but years later was released. Then someone delivered real justice–and killed him in cold blood.

Now Rain is living the perfect suburban life, her dark childhood buried deep. She spends her days as a stay-at-home mom, having put aside her career as a hard-hitting journalist to care for her infant daughter. But when another brutal murderer who escaped justice is found dead, Rain is unexpectedly drawn into the case. Eerie similarities to the murder of her friends’ abductor force Rain to revisit memories she’s worked hard to leave behind. Is there a vigilante at work? Who is the next target? Why can’t Rain just let it go?

Introducing one of the most compelling and original killers in crime fiction today, Lisa Unger takes readers deep inside the minds of both perpetrator and victim, blurring the lines between right and wrong, crime and justice, and showing that sometimes people deserve what comes to them.

Vanished Bride: Bronte Sisters Mystery by Bella Elli-Giveaway

Vanished Bride: Bronte Sisters Mystery by Bella ElliVanished Bride: Bronte Sisters Mystery by Bella Elli


Thanks to Dache J. Rogers of Berkley Publishing, I am giving away one print copy of ‘Vanished Bride: Bronte Sisters Mystery’ by Bella Elli.

Description Vanished Bride: Bronte Sisters Mystery by Bella Elli


Before they became legendary writers, Charlotte Brontë, Emily Brontë, and Anne Brontë were detectors in this charming historical mystery…

Yorkshire, 1845. A young wife and mother has gone missing from her home, leaving behind two small children and a large pool of blood. Just a few miles away, a humble parson’s daughters–the Brontë sisters–learn of the crime. Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë are horrified and intrigued by the mysterious disappearance.

These three creative, energetic, and resourceful women quickly realize that they have all the skills required to make for excellent “lady detectors.” Not yet published novelists, they have well-honed imaginations and are expert readers. And, as Charlotte remarks, “detecting is reading between the lines–it’s seeing what is not there.”

As they investigate, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne are confronted with a society that believes a woman’s place is in the home, not scouring the countryside looking for clues. But nothing will stop the sisters from discovering what happened to the vanished bride, even as they find their own lives are in great peril…

Praise Vanished Bride: Bronte Sisters Mystery by Bella Elli


“Appropriately gothic touches as well as the author’s solid research on the lives and works of the Brontës—including cameos by their dissolute brother, Branwell; their good-hearted father, Patrick; and Charlotte’s clumsy future husband, Arthur Nicholls—enrich a diverting adventure. Brontë aficionados won’t want to miss this one. “—Publisher’s Weekly

“Move over, Jane Austen, for the latest literary ladies who snoop…[a] lively series debut.”—Kirkus
