"Nothing can wait like an untold secret. And, it's possible that the secrets themselves know the most terrible secret... that just because you are invisible doesn't mean that you're not there. It doesn't mean that someone can't by sheer coincidence, stumble upon you. And, with each year that passes, they grow just a little bit bigger. Just a little bit deadlier. And, still, they wait." - Molly Stevenson, Amelda Tartan Contest EntryAmelda Tartan is coming to town. Never before has the little town of Springgate hosted such a celebrated author, and, in honor of her coming, a book contest has been announced. Molly and Natalie are in hot competition to write a mystery worthy of the skills of Amelda Tartan, when Molly gets the regrettable curse of...writer's block.No one ever told Molly about the dangers of writing. Words have power, and to her horror and dismay, her (self-admittedly) brilliant opening paragraph detailing the lives of secrets creates a monster that no one can control. Because, now... Molly sees secrets everywhere... Carolyn. Ryan. Natalie. Even Mrs. Goldmyer. Is it possible that Mrs. Goldmyer, the ultimate knitpicker, has been hiding a deep and terrible secret for years and years? Is it possible that Mrs. Goldmyer is an... axe murderer? What started as a humorous hypothesis, soon becomes all too frighteningly real. Deadly real. Because, somehow, Molly has stumbled upon an invisible secret with feet sunk deep in the past and rotten, gnarled fingers firmly gripping the present. Some secrets, it seems, should stay buried.

Is Raspberry Hill haunted by more than old regrets and lost chances? Natalie Wolcott, one third potential beneficiary, is about to find out. When Grandma Rose passes away, she leaves her magnificent, if slightly sinister, mansion on the edge of town to her three estranged relatives who, according to the terms of the will, must live on site for one year, three months and four days for before they can inherit. It is obvious that Raspberry Hill, although given, still comes at a high price. Whispers of murder and a town with a long memory have Natalie wondering one thing... Who was Grandma Rose?... because it's all too apparent that someone doesn't want them there. When things start to go bump in the night, Natalie is convinced that someone from town, or perhaps even one of her co-inheritors, is trying to force her out. That is, until she meets the ghost in the basement. Her only comfort is her new job at Crabapple Yarns. Unfortunately, the shadows of the past are knitted together with the present and before she has a chance to fit in disaster strikes the sweet little yarn shop. The plan to save Crabapple Yarns unwittingly sets into motion a chain of events that just might end with another murder at Raspberry Hill.
Poetry Book Society Summer Choice, Recommended Translation 2019. In The Cancer Journals Audre Lorde wrote, ‘I do not wish my anger and pain and fear about cancer to fossilise into yet another silence, not to rob me of whatever strength can lie at the core of this experience, openly acknowledged and examined.’ Founded on this same principle, The Following Scan Will Last Five Minutes was written in the three months following Dutch writer Lieke Marsman’s cancer diagnosis. A series of short poems anchored by an essay that speaks directly to Lorde’s journal entries and personal reflections on cancer, Marsman considers, among other things, the state of contemporary Dutch politics and – via Susan Sontag’s Illness as Metaphor – the rhetoric surrounding her disease. A work of poetry, social criticism and autobiography, The Following Scan is an honest and dryly comic account of a period in the author’s life that elides pretension in search of autonomy and self-knowledge. Beautifully translated by the poet Sophie Collins, the book also includes a translator’s note in the form of a letter to her author and friend.
