Logan Harper isn't looking for redemption. He just wants to live in peace and forget his troubled past. But one morning his quiet life is upended when he interrupts the attempted murder of his father's best friend, Tooney. The next thing he knows, Logan is on his way to Los Angeles, searching for Tooney's missing granddaughter and uncovering a sinister plot connected not only to Tooney's past, but also to the boardrooms of corporate America. As the odds stack up against him, Logan must fall back on old skills from the life he'd rather forget. He's made a promise, and the only way to fulfill it is to bring the girl home alive.

It was supposed to be a fun weekend, a celebration of a marriage and growing family. Alan Lindley couldn't have been happier...until his wife Sara disappeared. Asked by a mutual friend to help look for her, Logan Harper is sure he'd discover a wife who simply wanted out of the marriage.

What would you do for those precious to you?

The Pull of Gravity
From Brett Battles comes a different kind of novel, one Edgar Award-nominated author Tim Hallinan calls "a mesmerizing thriller of the heart." It's a story of love, tragedy, and those searching for redemption.
Jay Bradley thought he could leave the Philippines behind. But though he's started a new life with a woman he loves, he's still tormented by questions from his past.
He returns to Angeles City where he once worked as a papasan watching over bargirls. On the surface, he's there to sell his stake in a bar on the notorious Fields Avenue. In reality, he's come back to find Isabel, one of his old dancers, and the only person who can answer his questions and quiet his demons.
Because death is seldom an ending, and often haunts those left behind.
