Her plan is simply to survive senior year unnoticed.\n\nThat plan collapses when she meets James Champlain, whose family owns half the island, including the old mansion known as the Tower. James is drawn to Taylor and she to him, but he can see things other people cannot, and he is careful about what he says. As strange events accumulate around Taylor, it becomes clear that the island sits on a fault line between older forces.\n\nThe book leans on the familiar furniture of YA paranormal romance: the outsider heroine, the wealthy and secretive love interest, a small town with a hidden order beneath it.

When monsters attack during a school field trip, the trio is swept to Camp Half-Blood, a training ground for demigod children of the Greek gods, where they learn the queen of the gods, Hera, has been imprisoned. The three set out on a quest that carries them across the country, from Nevada to Chicago to a frozen palace in the north and finally to California, racing a deadline before a terrible power awakens. Along the way each demigod uncovers a divine parent and a hidden talent: Jason commands the sky, Piper can bend others to her will through her voice, and Leo bends fire and machinery to his purpose. Behind their enemies stirs Gaea, the primordial earth goddess, who is rousing giants and monsters to overthrow Olympus. As Jason recovers fragments of his past, he begins to suspect his origins lie somewhere stranger than Camp Half-Blood, and that his arrival is part of a much larger design.

His father Zeus has cast him down as punishment, and the only road back to Olympus runs through a series of ancient Oracles that have fallen silent. Bound into servitude by a fierce, garbage-flinging twelve-year-old demigod named Meg McCaffrey, the deflated former deity makes his way to Camp Half-Blood, where he learns that campers have been vanishing and that the camp's link to the outside world has gone dark. With old friends offering uneasy help and a shadowy corporate power working behind the scenes, the god who once commanded worship must relearn how to be brave, how to fail, and how to depend on others. The narration, delivered in Apollo's own gloriously self-absorbed voice and punctuated by his terrible haiku, turns a story of humbling into something funny and surprisingly tender. As the mystery of the missing campers tightens around Meg's hidden past, the unlikely pair confront an enemy far older and crueler than either expected. Mortality forces the god to reckon with centuries of careless cruelty toward the humans and demigods who served him, and the lessons land harder than any arrow he once loosed.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktq07xmfhdr1phxwtd17z9qz.jpg?v=0638671ddc","LCGuwJ9G00?H%fXAM{xZ00t8~WM{",384,[612],{"id":461,"slug":462,"name":463},[614,615,616,620,621],{"id":467,"name":468,"slug":469,"is_fiction":20},{"id":87,"name":471,"slug":472,"is_fiction":20},{"id":617,"name":618,"slug":619,"is_fiction":20},17,"Children's Books","childrens",{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},{"id":474,"name":475,"slug":476,"is_fiction":20},[623],{"id":624,"slug":625,"name":626,"position":127,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kndaxgzch974symavkvbkkbs","the-trials-of-apollo-y3nu","The Trials of Apollo",{"pace":348,"complexity":7,"audience":487,"mood":628,"themes":629,"setting_period":7,"summary":633,"content_warnings":7},[489,351,490,598,130],[181,630,132,492,602,631,632],"redemption-arc","coming-of-age","mentor-figure","The mighty god Apollo has been cast out of Olympus and stripped of his divine powers, forced to live as a mortal teenager in New York City.

The stranger lives just long enough to murmur a single baffling question before he dies, and that question lodges itself in Bobby's mind. When an inquest swiftly closes the matter as an accident, Bobby is inclined to let it rest, until an attempt is made on his own life and the loose threads refuse to lie flat. Joined by his spirited childhood friend Lady Frances Derwent, known to everyone as Frankie, he sets out to make sense of the dying words and the curious people who seem connected to them. The two adopt disguises, stage a motor accident to gain entry to a suspicious household, and trade quick banter as the stakes climb from idle curiosity toward genuine peril. Wit and recklessness carry them where caution would not, and their amateur sleuthing brushes against forces far more dangerous than either anticipated. Working without a famous detective to guide them, Bobby and Frankie must rely on nerve, luck, and each other. Set among country houses, a nursing home, and the cliffs of the Welsh coast, the story moves at a brisk pace, balancing genuine menace with a light, conversational charm and a puzzle that keeps circling back to one teasing question.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz59hvmkkrx7fm91bjva5br.jpg","L6D9q[00T}E2N4ocoMWB0;WE]yjY",1935,252,[731],{"id":732,"slug":733,"name":734},"01kjq7prh50ekz5eybgdhd9q51","agatha-christie-t6d5","Agatha Christie",[736,737,738,742,743],{"id":276,"name":277,"slug":278,"is_fiction":20},{"id":701,"name":702,"slug":703,"is_fiction":20},{"id":739,"name":740,"slug":741,"is_fiction":20},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":20},{"id":163,"name":164,"slug":165,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":348,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":746,"themes":747,"setting_period":7,"summary":748,"content_warnings":7},[95,489],[256,493],"A dying man found on a golf course leaves behind only one cryptic question: \"Why didn't they ask Evans?\" When his identity and the meaning of that phrase are lost to time, Bobby Jones and Lady Frances Derwent set out across England chasing clues through old photographs, forgotten addresses, and tangled family secrets.

As long as everything is in its proper place, she is content.\n\nThen Molly lets herself into the suite of the wealthy, frequently unpleasant Mr. Black and finds him dead in his bed. Because she behaves nothing like people expect a witness to behave, and because she knows more about the hotel's guests and staff than she lets on, Molly quickly becomes the police's prime suspect. To clear her name, she will have to accept help from an unlikely group of allies and learn to tell the difference between the people who mean her well and those who don't.\n\nNita Prose's debut is a warm, twisty contemporary mystery with the comfort of a cozy and a genuinely original narrator.

For a decade she was content raising her daughter in the quiet suburbs of New Jersey. But now that Joy is grown and gone, life has gotten far too quiet.\n\nWith a little cajoling from Madame, the Blend's flamboyant elderly owner, Clare agrees to return to her old job, and right from the start she gets one heck of a jolt. On her first morning back as manager she unlocks the front door to find her beautiful young assistant manager, Anabelle, unconscious in the back of the store, coffee grounds strewn everywhere.\n\nAs Anabelle is rushed to the hospital, police arrive to investigate, but Detective Mike Quinn finds no sign of forced entry or foul play and deems it an accident. Clare disagrees. After Quinn leaves there are questions she can't get out of her mind: why was the trash bin in the wrong place? If this wasn't an accident, are her other baristas in danger? On What Grounds is the first Coffeehouse Mystery.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kxer0vttzy6rmc67n9gax996.jpg?v=38e58bee12","LDJa1Fxv0O^IMwD*I^$y~JM{K8tQ","3.50",275,[897],{"id":898,"slug":899,"name":900},"01kqpbv53a1nrjhjvr9nwzyvjy","cleo-coyle-qvxm","Cleo Coyle",[902,903,904,905,906],{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":20},{"id":428,"name":429,"slug":430,"is_fiction":20},{"id":276,"name":277,"slug":278,"is_fiction":20},{"id":163,"name":164,"slug":165,"is_fiction":20},{"id":701,"name":702,"slug":703,"is_fiction":20},[908],{"id":909,"slug":910,"name":911,"position":127,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kqpbz7368t64qhxm228ja02v","coffeehouse-mystery-jpyt","A Coffeehouse Mystery",{"pace":91,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":913,"themes":914,"setting_period":7,"summary":915,"content_warnings":7},[178,95,130],[],"Ten years after walking away, Clare Cosi returns to manage the historic Village Blend coffeehouse in Greenwich Village.
