Amanda DuBois  /  The Complication
​
        

Seattle lawyer and activist Amanda DuBois makes her authorial debut with The Complication (Girl Friday Press/IPS), the first book in a new mystery series featuring Seattle attorney Camille Delaney. What starts as a simple investigation into Camille’s friend’s surgery gone wrong unravels something much darker—a trail of unexplained deaths at the hands of two unscrupulous surgeons. Amanda DuBois is a practicing attorney and founder of the Full Circle Scholarship, which provides students whose lives have been impacted by the justice system with tuition assistance to Seattle University Law School. ​

Sarah Penner  /  The London Séance Society    

Best-selling author Sarah Penner follows her blockbuster debut, The Lost Apothecary, with The London Séance Society (Park Row/HarperCollins), a spellbinding gothic whodunit featuring a talented and much sought-after medium and her understudy who team up with the powerful men of the Séance Society to solve a high-profile murder. As the case goes on, they begin to suspect that they are not merely there to solve a crime, but they are perhaps becoming entangled in one themselves. The London Séance Society will be published in April, 2023.​
