FICTION
The Twist of a Knife by Anthony Horowitz (Hawthorne and Horowitz Mystery #4)

'Our deal is over.' That's what reluctant author Anthony Horowitz tells ex-detective Daniel Hawthorne in an awkward meeting. The truth is that Anthony has other things on his mind. His new play is about to open in London. On opening night, critic Harriet Throsby gives the play a savage review. The next morning, she is found dead, stabbed in the heart with an ornamental dagger which belongs to Anthony and which has his finger prints all over it. Anthony is arrested, charged with Throsby's murder, thrown into prison and interrogated. Alone and increasingly desperate, he realises only one man can help him. But will Hawthorne take his call?

The Serpent in Heaven by Charlaine Harris (Gunnie Rose #4)

NONFICTION
True Reconciliation: How to Be a Force for Change by Jody Wilson-Raybould. There is one question Canadians have asked Wilson-Raybould more than any other: “What can I do to help advance reconciliation?” People want to take action that will make real change. They just need to know how to get started. True Reconciliation is broken into three core practices: Learn, Understand, and Act. Based on historical and contemporary experiences of Indigenous peoples and with deep understanding about what has been effective in the past, what we are doing today, and what our collective future requires. True Reconciliation is about building transformed patterns of just and harmonious relations between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples at all levels of society.

HORROR
Midnight Storm Moonless Sky by Alex Soop. Blackfoot storyteller Alexander Soop plunges us into a shocking well of imagination in his collection of short stories. From hauntings on the Highway of Tears to fearful gatherings of ghosts and the sorrows of racism, Soop combines the social anxieties of Indigenous life with spellbinding flights and frights of speculative fiction. Through these enthralling stories of reality mixed with terror, readers get a wicked glimpse into the genre of Indigenous Horror - a combination of First Nations legends, dark fantasy, apocalyptic and paranormal enchantment, and monstrous secrets.
