The Ridge by John Rector, New on the Mystery Bookshelf during April 2017

New on the Mystery Bookshelf during April 2017 …

The Ridge by John Rector, A Novel of Suspense

Publisher: Thomas & Mercer

  

With its manicured lawns, pastel houses, and quiet, tree-lined streets, Willow Ridge seems to be the perfect place for Megan and Tyler Stokes to start a new chapter in their lives together. But soon after settling in, Megan begins to notice cracks in the neighborhood's bright suburban facade — cracks that reveal a darker secret hidden just beneath the surface.

After an angry encounter with a neighbor takes a horrifying turn, Megan's waking nightmare truly begins — growing ever more chilling and bizarre with each shocking twist. Suddenly forced to question everything around her, Megan finds herself trapped between the specter of madness and the shadow of something far worse. Her only hope is to expose the community's pretty lies and discover the truth about what is really going on in Willow Ridge — a truth so devastating that her life will never be the same.

— The Ridge by John Rector

Burntown by Jennifer McMahon, New in Bookstores during April 2017

Today's featured new hardcover mystery, suspense, or thriller title scheduled to be published during April 2017 is …

Burntown by Jennifer McMahon, A Novel of Suspense

Publisher: Doubleday

 

Ashford, Vermont, might look like your typical sleepy New England college town, but to the shadowy residents who live among the remains of its abandoned mills and factories, it's known as "Burntown."

Eva Sandeski, known as "Necco" on the street, has been a part of this underworld for years, ever since the night her father Miles drowned in a flood that left her and her mother Lily homeless. A respected professor, Miles was also an inventor of fantastic machines, including one so secret that the plans were said to have been stolen from Thomas Edison's workshop. According to Lily, it's this machine that got Miles murdered.

Necco has always written off this claim as the fevered imaginings of a woman consumed by grief. But when Lily dies under mysterious circumstances, and Necco's boyfriend is murdered, she's convinced her mother was telling the truth. Now, on the run from the man called "Snake Eyes," Necco must rely on other Burntown outsiders to survive.

— Burntown by Jennifer McMahon

Echo of Danger by Marta Perry, New on the Mystery Bookshelf during April 2017

New on the Mystery Bookshelf during April 2017 …

Echo of Danger by Marta Perry, A Novel of Suspense

Publisher: HQN Books

  

In peaceful Pennsylvania Dutch country, a young mother discovers a shocking danger — and an unexpected ally …

A whisper of a threat looms over widow Deidre Morris. She and her young son have unwittingly become prisoners of her intimidating father-in-law's power. One wrong step could find her son torn from her and in the hands of the influential judge. But when Deidre collides with an intriguing stranger, the prospect of a new friendship gives her renewed hope … until a devastating murder rocks the quiet community of Echo Falls and Deidre learns first impressions can't be trusted.

Attorney Jase Glassman's assignment is straightforward: befriend Deidre, gather incriminating evidence … and allow her dogged father-in-law to take custody of her child. Anything else, including losing himself in her honest charm, will compromise the job he was hired to do. Yet when a murderer ushers danger into the town, Jase's only instinct is to protect Deidre and her son — no matter the sacrifice.
