Book excerpt: Many people of Portuguese descent take pride in claiming that the word saudade is untranslatable. In reality, we come close with a melding of bittersweet nostalgia, bone--deep longing, and an endless yearning for what one can never have again--or indeed may never have had. Adelaide Freitas dipped her pen in saudade to tell of family separation and bonds that never loosen. In her authentic Azorean voice, she recounts the immigrant experience and centrifugal impulses that force people apart in spite of their desperation to cling to one another. In their sensitive rendering, the translators have captured the nuances of Freitas's novel Smiling in the Darkness, with special care for those who have her native language in their heritage and heartfelt saudade for its loss.

Book excerpt: “A cannot-put-down thriller that’s dark, edgy and intense . . . Another great addition to this stunning series” from the author of Dark Places (Fresh Fiction). Die Young Hilde Swensen is a beauty pageant queen with a face to die for and a body to kill for. But by the time Detective Claire Morgan finds her in a shower stall—posed like a grotesquely grinning doll—Hilde is anything but pretty. She’s the victim of a sick, deranged killer. And she won’t be the last . . . Die Beautiful Brianna Swenson is the beauty queen’s sister—and the girlfriend of Claire’s partner. She tells Claire that Hilde had plenty of enemies, including a creepy stalker, an abusive ex-boyfriend, and a slew of jealous competitors. But what she doesn’t say is that they both shared a dark, disturbing secret. A secret that refuses to die . . . Die Smiling From the after-hours parties of a sinister funeral home to the underworld vendettas of the Miami mob, Claire follows the trail with her lover, a psychiatrist with secrets of his own. But it’s not until she uncovers evidence of unspeakable acts of depravity that Claire realizes she’s just become a diabolical killer’s next target . . .

Book excerpt: Have you ever looked into a mirror and felt your blood run cold and your hairs stand on end? As if the person looking back is someone…something…different? "The mirror had developed an icy glaze on its dark surface, and the reflection that now faced Lucy, was not her own. It was so real and so terrifyingly clear - as if the mirror had just been freshly polished. Instead of her hazel eyes staring back, Lucy saw something else behind the ominous glass, something that made her skin crawl." Sarah Bell's daughter has been taken by the entity that lives on the other side of that mirrored glass, and she will do anything to get her back!
