“Meltzer has come up with a gem of a plot….It breezes along in high gear….[A] highly recommended suspenser.” —Chicago Tribune
In this second novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Meltzer, husband and wife face off in a legal thriller that poses the most chilling question of all: How far would you go to save the one you love?
Sara Tate, a Manhattan assistant DA, is on the brink of losing her job. But then she takes a case that may be able to secure her future. Trouble is, it’s much more complicated—and deadly—than it initially appears. While forces within her own office plot against her, an outside threat takes things to another level: Win the case or her attorney husband, Jared, will die. But Jared has received threats, too. Forced to defend the opposition, he learns that, if he loses the case, Sara will be killed. With everything on the line for both of them, husband and wife battle it out—at court and at home—while maintaining the terrible secret behind their motives. Caught in a struggle of rollercoaster emotions and shocking betrayals, Jared and Sara must face the unthinkable: No matter who wins, one of them may die.

A gritty, mind-warping blend of cosmic horror and sci-fantasy noir—perfect for fans of N.K. Jemisin, Tamsyn Muir, and Brian Evenson.
THIS IS HOW THE GOD CYCLE BEGINS… AND ENDS.
WITH DARYL, who wakes with no memory in a crumbling asylum where darkness strains against the mirrors reflecting a past he cannot face.
WITH SUSAN, his therapist—whose quiet influence might be his only hope… or his undoing.
WITH WERNER, a former physicist who speaks of patterns, infinite worlds, and things best left alone.
AND WITH HUBBLE, an invisible gnome who appears when reality cracks—usually with his pet chicken.
This is his reckoning—haunted by a small girl with terrible eyes, Daryl can no longer outrun the noose of a past that will choke the life from him even as it tears him apart.
Either the world is broken, or he is.
The truth may lie just beyond the glass.

For fans of One Dark Window and From Blood and Ash comes a haunting, slow-burn fantasy romance about villains. It follows a formerly magicless elf as she suddenly comes into powers that her kingdom has never seen and the duplicitous prince she must bargain with to save them at whatever cost—even her soul.
After her grandmother’s execution, a formerly magicless elf is suddenly the most powerful witch in her village. Magic is disappearing, though, and Imani is thrust into the treacherous court of her kingdom, forced into trials against the most lethal witches in the world.
As she unravels the perilous plan her grandmother plotted before her death to save magic, Imani unwittingly dives deeper into a web of magical and political intrigue that puts her on a collision course with dangers beyond anything she imagined.
But Imani is harboring illicit knowledge of her own—a forbidden dark magic that’s getting more difficult to hide by the day. Now, she must decide whether to make herself a threat and an enemy to her country or risk becoming a pawn and the realm losing magic forever.
Stuck in this predicament, Imani sees only one path forward: a dangerous deal with the duplicitous prince—one she might be falling for.
