Look what we bought!

Lots of interesting new books are now part of Schlow's collection.

Two books happen to have watery deaths in their titles: Drowned by Therese Bohman is set in the lovely Swedish countryside in an ominous thriller with changing alliances between the three main chracters. In The Drowning Girl by Caitlyn Kiernan, schizophrenic India Morgan Phelps (she goes by Imp) tries to write her memoir while dealing with the shifting realities in her mind. Fantasy, art, ghosts and mental illness mix together to create a suspenseful, original story.

Two noir books: Three A.M. by Steven John takes place in a world that just had a deadly plague and is also covered by a mysterious fog. People can only see a few feet in front of them and have to navigate by touch and dim lights. A beautiful woman in a red dress needs help solving a murder from P.I. Tom Vale. Can he fumble his way to solve the underlying conspiracy?  Budapest Noir by Vilmos Kondor is set in the fear-inducing and freedom-tightening time before World War II. Crime reporter Zsigmond Gordon works the streets to solve the mystery of a Jewish prostitute. "Dark and edgy, with interesting characters and locales," says Kirkus Reviews.

Jane Austen the vampire is back for a third book in Janes Vows Vengeance by Michael Thomas Ford. Can she defeat her vampire nemesis Charlotte Bronte? Will she find Crispin's Needle, a relic that will make her human again and able to live a mortal life with her sweet fiance Walter?

Kirkus Reviews says "Never mind if you're a baseball fan. This is a damn fine read," about The Might Have Been by Joseph Schuster. A story about a baseball player who never makes it to the big time but continues to love the game despite his missed opportunities. A realistic character you'll root for.
