Where the Forest Meets the Stars
By Glendy Vanderah
Lake Union Publishing, the Book Club Fiction Imprint of Amazon Publishing; 351 pages; hardcover, $24.95; Kindle eBook, $4.99; available today, Friday, March 1
Glendy Vanderah worked as an endangered bird specialist in Illinois before she became a writer. Originally from Chicago, she now lives in rural Florida with her husband, and many friends, mostly the many birds, butterflies, and wildflowers she can lure to her land.
Where the Forest Meets the Stars is Vanderah's debut novel, and she tackles complex and profound themes with lightness, humor, and love.
After the loss of her mother and her own battle with breast cancer, Jo Teale returns to her graduate research on nesting birds in rural Illinois, with the determination to prove that her recent hardships have not broken her. She throws herself into her work from dust to dawn, until her solitary routine is disrupted by the appearance of a mysterious child who shows up at her cabin barefoot and covered in bruises.
The young girl calls herself Ursa, and she claims to have been sent from the stars to witness five miracles. With concerns about the child's home situation, Jo reluctantly agrees to let her say, just until she can figure out what to do with her.
Jo seeks help from her reclusive neighbor, Gabe Nash, to solve the mystery of the charming child. The more time they spend with her, the more mysterious and special this girl reveals herself to be. Ursa is exceedingly bright, and good things just seem to happen when she is around.
Jo, Gabe, and Ursa form an incredible bond and they are brought closer by each of their own personal struggles. However, in the back of their minds, they know difficult choices must be made. Ursa has a home, they just have to figure out where that home was.
As summer nears its end and Ursa gets closer to her fifth miracle, her dangerous past closes in. When it finally catches up to them, all of their painful secrets will be forced into the open, and their fates will be left to the stars.
Debris Line: The Gibson Vaughn Series
By Matthew Fitzsimmons
Thomas & Mercer; hardcover, $24.95; paperback, $15.95; eBook, $5.99
This is the fourth book in the Wall Street Journal bestselling Gibson Vaughn series. Here we find the protagonist lying now on the sun-kissed coast of Portugal, which is a far cry from twenty-four hour lockdown in a CIA black-site prison. Even though he is seemingly in paradise, Vaughn is a long way from being home free.
With the feds hot on his heels, he and his crew of fellow fugitives know they can't hide in a sunny beach town forever. Before they can go on the run again, their host, a wealthy drug smuggler, expects to be paid for his hospitality, and actually paid double.
His price? A nearly impossible operation that Gibson and his gang must pull off to retrieve a king's ransom in hijacked narcotics. Even if they make it out alive, they will have to face the wrath of a ruthless Mexican cartel that plays dirty, and is used to winning.
When Gibson discovers that there is far more than drugs at stake, the heist becomes a daring mission of rescue and mercy, as well as righteous vengeance.
Prior books in the Gibson Vaughn series include The Short Drop, Poisonfeather, and Cold Harbor. Fitzsimmons was born in Illinois, raised in London, England, and he now lives in Washington, DC, where he taught English literature and theater at a private high school for more than a decade.
