As another coed goes missing and the darkness closes in, Micki must face a terrifying truth: this time she might not make it. This time the evil they're facing might destroy them all …

As Deputy Coroner Charmaine Digby discovers when she questions Marty's widow about his sudden death, she had ample opportunity to kill him. Victoria McCutcheon even admits as much, right before she asks Char to solve her husband's murder. What? A suspected black widow who wants her husband's murderer brought to justice? Victoria McCutcheon is either the most skillful liar Char has ever encountered or someone else has spun a web of lies to cover their murderous tracks. But who, and why?

With no hard evidence to go on, it's up to Char and her ability as a human lie detector to break this case wide open. Assuming that someone doesn't crack her skull open first!

Cooper knows her future sister-in-law is innocent, so when the police arrest her for the murder, the Bible study group must step in to catch the real killer and prevent a grave injustice. Following a twisted trail of clues that leads to a hit-and-run driver, a homeless veteran, and a park full of suspects who may hold more secrets than solutions, Cooper must hold firm to her spiritual convictions before an innocent woman faces a conviction of a more earthly nature.

The Last Dawn by Joe Gannon, New in Bookstores during January 2016

Today's featured new hardcover mystery, suspense, or thriller title scheduled to be published during January 2016 is …

The Last Dawn by Joe Gannon, A Novel of Suspense

Publisher: Minotaur Books

 

1989. It's been three years since Captain Ajax Montoya cleared the smoke and blood from his last case — and what a three years. The old world order is coming down along with the Berlin Wall, and the Soviet "Evil Empire" is being born to the ash heap of history by its once captive people.

But in a psychiatric hospital in Managua, a near catatonic Ajax missed all that. In 1986, Ajax freed his only remaining friend from a psychotic killer. But his 'methods' were such that he was imprisoned in a nut-house for his pains. And for three years his world stood still.

But ghosts don't know time nor read headlines. So when one of the many phantoms from Ajax's bloody past shows up, he is rescued from his personal nightmare only to be plunged from one hell into another.

El Salvador in 1989 is in a civil war so vicious, they say even the Grim Reaper needs an escort. But when the parents of Ajax's old love beg him to go there and save their son — as he did not save their daughter — Ajax is on the next plane.

And he's not alone. Gladys Darío — the lieutenant whose rescue cost Ajax his freedom and his mind — has been stewing in Miami for three years, and she is ready to back his play, even if it costs her own life.

Now all they have to do is parachute into the hottest war in the Americas and find that one needle of a missing person in a haystack of the disappeared.

— The Last Dawn by Joe Gannon

City of Blades by Robert Jackson Bennett, New on the Mystery Bookshelf during January 2016

New on the Mystery Bookshelf during January 2016 …

City of Blades by Robert Jackson Bennett, A The Divine Cities Mystery (2nd in series)

Publisher: Broadway Books

  

A generation ago, the city of Voortyashtan was the stronghold of the god of war and death, the birthplace of fearsome supernatural sentinels who killed and subjugated millions.

Now, the city's god is dead. The city itself lies in ruins. And to its new military occupiers, the once-powerful capital is a wasteland of sectarian violence and bloody uprisings.

So it makes perfect sense that General Turyin Mulaghesh — foul-mouthed hero of the battle of Bulikov, rumored war criminal, ally of an embattled Prime Minister — has been exiled there to count down the days until she can draw her pension and be forgotten.

At least, it makes the perfect cover story.

The truth is that the general has been pressed into service one last time, dispatched to investigate a discovery with the potential to change the world — or destroy it.

The trouble is that this old soldier isn't sure she's still got what it takes to be the hero.

— City of Blades by Robert Jackson Bennett

In Warwickshire, a popular colonel has been murdered, and the main suspect is a decorated war hero and close friend of the Prince of Wales. The case is a political minefield, and no matter what the outcome, Rutledge may not escape with his career intact. But, win or lose, the cost could be even higher: the one witness who could break the case is himself a shell shock victim, teetering on the edge of reality. And in this war-ravaged man, Rutledge sees his own possible future, should he lose grip on his mind …
