I realize it may feel a bit early to start thinking about October, but not when you're looking forward to great new titles from your favorite authors!
Origin, by Dan Brown. Readers rejoin Brown's unlikely hero, Harvard professor of symbology and religious iconography Robert Langdon, as he attends a meticulously choreographed evening at the ultramodern Guggenheim Museum Bilbao where a former student and current billionaire futurist Edmond Kirsch is presenting a breakthrough concerning human origin. The order descends into chaos, however, putting Kirsch's discovery and Langdon's very life at risk. Langdon and an associate flee to Barcelona, where they begin the momentous task of unraveling Kirsch's secret before Kirsch is silenced by his enemies. Also available in Large Print.
Two Kinds of Truth, by Michael Connelly. Connelly's Harry Bosch series continues to win more and more fans with each new entry. In his latest, Bosch is back as a volunteer working cold cases for the San Fernando Police Department. When he's called out to the scene of a young pharmacist's murder, he and the department's 3-person detective squad sift through the evidence, quickly finding themselves in over their heads in the big business world of pill mills and prescription drug abuse. To make matters worse, a case from Bosch's troubled past with the LAPD comes back to haunt him, too. Also available in Large Print.
The Rooster Bar, by John Grisham. Three friends came to law school to make the world a better place. But now, in their third year, they realize that they've been duped. They all have significant student loans but they've learned that their school is on the mediocre side: the graduates rarely pass the bar exam, let alone get good jobs. And when they discover that their school is one of a chain owned by a shady New York hedge-fund operator (who happens to own a bank that specializes in student loans), the three realize that they've been caught up in The Great Law School Scam. But is there a way out? Can they expose the scam and escape their crippling debt? This should be quite a page-turner.
