To escape the loop, he must identify Evelyn's killer before the day is done; if he fails, his memory is wiped and the day begins again, in a new host, with the clock reset to morning.\n\nEach host gives Aiden new memories, new relationships, and new physical constraints, and the murder itself keeps revealing new angles as he pieces together fragments across bodies who each glimpse only part of the truth. He is not the only guest trying to solve it, and not everyone at Blackheath wants the mystery to be solved at all.\n\nStuart Turton's genre-bending debut fuses a golden-age country-house murder mystery with the puzzle-box structure of a time loop, rewarding readers who track clues across shifting, unreliable vantage points toward a solution that recontextualizes everything that came before.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fcontributions\u002Fwork\u002F01\u002F01kmsznh4zzthx1kvm5awx2rrs_69cd2cd70dcb1.jpg","LFN]toD$00oe~Dxtm+jF.mt6?Gs.",2018,"4.11",528,[162,166,170],{"id":163,"slug":164,"name":165},"01kmsznh6tsjtm6gy90jn500st","stuart-turton-pm5c","Stuart Turton",{"id":167,"slug":168,"name":169},"01kmsznh6xehepn8bpp6tzy2rj","james-cameron-stewart-sl5v","James Cameron Stewart",{"id":171,"slug":172,"name":173},"01kmsznh71zn5jsdfjkkg7hyw4","fabrice-pointeau-idps","Fabrice Pointeau",[175,178,181,185,189,190,194],{"id":76,"name":176,"slug":177,"is_fiction":19},"Mystery","mystery",{"id":68,"name":179,"slug":180,"is_fiction":19},"Thriller","thriller",{"id":182,"name":183,"slug":184,"is_fiction":19},8,"Historical Fiction","historical-fiction",{"id":186,"name":187,"slug":188,"is_fiction":19},30,"Time Travel","time-travel",{"id":132,"name":133,"slug":134,"is_fiction":19},{"id":191,"name":192,"slug":193,"is_fiction":19},47,"Gothic","gothic",{"id":47,"name":48,"slug":49,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":7,"complexity":7,"audience":7,"mood":197,"themes":198,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[],[],{"id":200,"slug":201,"title":202,"description":203,"primary_cover_url":204,"cover_blurhash":205,"first_publish_year":206,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":207,"authors":208,"genres":213,"series":229,"enrichment":234},"01kmfhe6vv82dwgkvtb83mjy1a","catfishing-on-catnet-2c56","Catfishing on CatNet","For sixteen-year-old Steph, who is always on the move with her mother, her only stable community is CatNet, an online group for cat lovers.

They ration the scant food and supplies through a lottery system, mandate daily doses of virus suppressant, and even monitor future timelines to stop crimes before they can be committed. Brilliant but autistic, sixteen-year-old Clover Donovan has always dreamed of studying at the Waverly-Stead Academy. Her brother and caretaker, West, has done everything in his power to make her dream a reality. But Clover's refusal to part with her beloved service dog denies her entry into the school. Instead, she is drafted into the Time Mariners, a team of Company operatives who travel through time to gather news about the future. When one of Clover's missions reveals that West's life is in danger, the Donovans are shattered. To change West's fate, they'll have to take on the mysterious Company. But as its secrets are revealed, they realize that the Company's rule may not be as benevolent as it seems.

By turns darkly enthralling and relentlessly surprising, The Keepsake showcases an author at the peak of her storytelling powers. For untold years, the perfectly preserved mummy had lain forgotten in the dusty basement of Boston's Crispin Museum. Now its sudden rediscovery by museum staff is both a major coup and an attention-grabbing mystery. Dubbed \"Madam X,\" the mummy--to all appearances, an ancient Egyptian artifact--seems a ghoulish godsend for the financially struggling institution. But medical examiner Maura Isles soon discovers a macabre message hidden within the corpse--horrifying proof that this \"centuries-old\" relic is instead a modern-day murder victim.To Maura and Boston homicide detective Jane Rizzoli, the forensic evidence is unmistakable, its implications terrifying. And when the grisly remains of yet another woman are found in the hidden recesses of the museum, it becomes chillingly clear that a maniac is at large--and is now taunting them.Archaeologist Josephine Pulcillo's blood runs cold when the killer's cryptic missives are discovered, and her darkest dread becomes real when the carefully preserved corpse of yet a third victim is left in her car like a gruesome offering--or perhaps a ghastly promise of what's to come.The twisted killer's familiarity with post-mortem rituals suggests to Maura and Jane that he may have scientific expertise in common with Josephine. Only Josephine knows that her stalker shares a knowledge even more personally terrifying: details of a dark secret she had thought forever buried.Now Maura must summon her own dusty knowledge of ancient death traditions to unravel his twisted endgame. And when Josephine vanishes, Maura and Jane have precious little time to derail the Archaeology Killer before he adds another chilling piece to his monstrous collection.From the Hardcover edition.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kwzxb5323j2103bjc5smzjzw.jpg?v=30d2fd03d2","LZJ[5#%LIAM{xrxVt5t6}~IW-pxt","4.50",412,[653,657,661],{"id":654,"slug":655,"name":656},"01kjstpfs1w19ze8dg68dssdgh","tess-gerritsen-cg6a","Tess Gerritsen",{"id":658,"slug":659,"name":660},"01kwzxb4zx6vdwgcv66za3p8g7","alyssa-bresnahan-cme9","Alyssa Bresnahan",{"id":662,"slug":663,"name":664},"01kwzxb504fcn55q6wb4vt12gq","carolyn-mccormick-3581","Carolyn McCormick",[666,667,668,669],{"id":132,"name":133,"slug":134,"is_fiction":19},{"id":76,"name":176,"slug":177,"is_fiction":19},{"id":625,"name":626,"slug":627,"is_fiction":19},{"id":68,"name":179,"slug":180,"is_fiction":19},[671],{"id":672,"slug":673,"name":674,"position":675,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjstpfxjcyrz3eesj64t8007","rizzoli-isles-5oqe","Rizzoli & Isles","7.00",{"pace":141,"complexity":7,"audience":81,"mood":677,"themes":678,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[145,144],[87,642,609],{"id":680,"slug":681,"title":682,"description":683,"primary_cover_url":684,"cover_blurhash":685,"first_publish_year":549,"community_rating_avg":686,"community_rating_count":102,"page_count":368,"authors":687,"genres":692,"series":695,"enrichment":700},"01kx2j7xasf0dc31ba3fepxjss","forever-in-blue-jfkr","Forever in Blue","Four best friends — Lena, Tess, Bridget, and Justin's ex-girlfriend Cleo — reunite for one last summer together as they navigate relationships, a broken engagement, and the aftermath of an abusive relationship.

Available for a limited time while supplies last. From award-winning and USA Today bestselling author Kosoko Jackson comes his adult speculative debut, a stand-alone novel blending time travel and globe-hopping adventure, art history, and dark fantasy about magical paintings and the lengths people will go to collect them, destroy them...or be destroyed. A picture is worth a thousand nightmares. Art has always been an escape for struggling painter Lewis Dixon. But other than his mom, who has recently passed away, no one has ever praised his work. If he is being honest, there's really no one in his life. So he is shocked when the British Museum shows an unusual interest in his art. This is his chance to show the world what he's capable of...he just has no idea that he might also be saving the world at the same time. As Lewis soon learns, he has not been invited to participate in a curated show, but rather a test: to see if the fugue-like exhilaration he experiences when painting is actually magic, a power that allows him to enter nine very special paintings--paintings made by his great-grandfather. Spread across the globe, these paintings have unbelievable eldritch abilities...and not necessarily beneficial ones. In terms of power, these are the most valuable works of art in the world, and there are those out there who would do anything to possess just one. And Lewis, upon passing the test, has been asked to destroy them all. Partnered with an alluring agent in museum's employ, Noah Rao, Lewis must travel to Japan, Australia, Nigeria--and the past--plunging himself into a world of black markets, gothic magic, ancient history, and cursed objects to save those unlucky enough to call any of the paintings their own--or to free the world from those who would misuse the power of the paintings. In doing so, he will need to discover if he has what it takes to truly be an artist, the confidence to finally open himself up to someone who could give his lonely life meaning, and the strength to enter and navigate a reality where magic is everywhere.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx24mm81hfsjb6x81bdp1b01.jpg?v=455895d161","LWMQYE%h_NbIxDozt7j[.9IUIUoJ",2025,[1099],{"id":1100,"slug":1101,"name":1102},"01kqpthkfazaj29y17nhwbj030","kosoko-jackson-zqch","Kosoko Jackson",[1104,1108,1112,1113,1114,1115,1116,1117,1118,1122,1123],{"id":1105,"name":1106,"slug":1107,"is_fiction":19},24,"Dark Fantasy","dark-fantasy",{"id":1109,"name":1110,"slug":1111,"is_fiction":19},48,"Body Horror","body-horror",{"id":345,"name":346,"slug":347,"is_fiction":19},{"id":76,"name":176,"slug":177,"is_fiction":19},{"id":47,"name":48,"slug":49,"is_fiction":19},{"id":186,"name":187,"slug":188,"is_fiction":19},{"id":80,"name":915,"slug":916,"is_fiction":19},{"id":453,"name":454,"slug":455,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1119,"name":1120,"slug":1121,"is_fiction":19},22,"Magical Realism","magical-realism",{"id":562,"name":563,"slug":564,"is_fiction":19},{"id":919,"name":920,"slug":921,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":141,"complexity":7,"audience":81,"mood":1126,"themes":1127,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[145,144],[148,150],{"id":1129,"slug":1130,"title":1131,"description":1132,"primary_cover_url":1133,"cover_blurhash":1134,"first_publish_year":1135,"community_rating_avg":587,"community_rating_count":102,"page_count":1136,"authors":1137,"genres":1142,"series":1153,"enrichment":1158},"01kx24d1mmfy5rrzcene8q722v","castle-murders-fiht","Castle Murders","Partying to death ?A parlous party at the Castle Perilous comes to a dead halt when the body of viscount Oren is discovered and foul play is suspected.
