Book excerpt: “Full of revelations, surprises and shocks,” the fifth Leo Maxwell mystery pits the underdog defense attorney against an unforgiving prison gang (Bookreporter). Lachlan Smith’s Shamus Award–winning series continues with attorney-detective Leo Maxwell seeking an exit strategy from his family’s deepening entanglement with a ruthless prison-based gang. Caught between the criminals and the FBI, Leo charts his own path in defending a young woman who was manipulated into brazenly murdering a member of the Aryan Brotherhood in San Francisco’s Tenderloin neighborhood. When the consequences strike heartbreakingly close to home, Leo, his brother Teddy, and the rest of the family are forced into a winner-takes-all confrontation with men who don’t care how many innocents they harm in achieving their goals. As Leo’s world collapses, long-held secrets are revealed, transforming his perspective on the aftermath of the tragedy that derailed his childhood and fractured his family twenty-one years ago. The question then becomes who will get revenge first—the Maxwells or the sadistic gang leader who pursues them? “In its complexity, Wolf’s Revenge might remind a reader of a John le Carré novel; few are who they seem to be. Spies and double agents abound. This novel has action, some violence, but its real strengths are its intricacy and some rather dispiriting revelations about our criminal justice system.” —Tuscaloosa News “Operating at the top of his game, Smith is as good as anyone writing today at combining a mystery with the overlay of existential dread that noir fans relish.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Book excerpt: Los Angeles, a city where vampires and shifters live and maintain an uneasy peace with humans. It's a city where violence simmers just below the surface, ready to erupt at the slightest provocation. Lieutenant Christine Humber of the LAPD's robbery homicide division is well aware of that potential. She has worked for years in the city's most violent district, known locally as Monster Central. Called to a murder scene, Chris and her partner learn that their latest victim is a werewolf and shifters are very hard to kill. Who or what can kill a werewolf and leave no trace? With the body count mounting among the shapeshifter community, and the media screaming about police incompetence, Chris and her partner race to find answers to calm things down before a war breaks out and spills on to the streets. A new Urban Revolt feels imminent, with non-humans of all kinds lining up ready and willing to oppose human aggression and prejudice. The fragile peace teeters on the edge while a very special serial killer takes down Monster Central's bad boys one by one with impunity. Desperate for a break in the case, and frustrated at every turn by closed mouthed shifters unwilling to deal with the police who they perceive as the enemy, Chris is stunned when the FBI take a hand and threaten to take her case. Determined not to hand things over quietly, she accepts the inevitable, and together with the overly slim and beautiful Agent Flint, Chris and her now smitten partner work together to find some answers. One night while on a stakeout that she hopes will bear fruit, Chris comes face to face with the reality of hunting a werewolf, and her life is forever changed. Ripped to pieces and left barely alive, she wakes in the hospital to discover she's become one of the monsters that she hunted. With no way back, her humanity stolen, and with nothing left to live for but revenge, she enters a paranormal world of night club owning vampires and sexy alpha werewolves. Lawrence Bailey is certainly that, but she's looking for payback not werewolf romance, and she doesn't need a man no matter how buff to fight her battles for her. She had never been shy about fighting her own, she wasn't going to start now. Author's note: "For best enjoyment, read these shifter books in order.

Book excerpt: He’ll risk it all to bring her home. Morgan Carter witnessed her sister’s murder, has been turned into a werewolf and is now raising her young niece. Then her fiance, Greyson Crawford, proves he wants to be with her for the wrong reasons, and she knows her life couldn’t be any stranger. Devastated, she retreats to her cozy house in the city with her sister’s little girl, Lana. There, they’ll have normalcy, and maybe eventually, even happiness. But Morgan’s the only living silver wolf. Her uniqueness—the ability to produce werewolf offspring—means, without Grey’s protection, she’s unknowingly put herself and Lana in deadly danger. Other werewolves want to claim her for their pack, and she’s the easiest, most tempting prey ever. When they strike, Grey has to find her and rescue her before it’s too late. Not so simple a task; he has only the uncontrollable beast inside him, Wolf, and an unlikely pack of allies he’s forced to rely on. Can he get to her in time? And if he does, can he convince her he’s there for the right reasons, saving them both? 38,201 Words

And while the surgeon's jealous lover vows to kill him, a violent envy also stirs in the soul of a lonely craftsman. Desire meets with impulse and erupts, attracting the attention of the surgeon's neighbor---who is drawn to a decaying residence that is now home to instruments of human torture. Murderers and mourners, mothers and children, lovers and innocent bystanders---their fates converge in an ominous and darkly beautiful web. Yoko Ogawa's Revenge is a master class in the macabre that will haunt you to the last page. An NPR Best Book of 2013
