About the book
In a groundbreaking theatrical experience gone horribly wrong, a deadly night reveals the dark consequences of blurring the lines between performance and reality.
When Come Knocking came to Los Angeles, the interactive theater production that took over six floors of an abandoned building was met with raves, lines for tickets, and reviews calling it the “must-see experience of a generation”. After dozens of people were killed and hundreds injured during one bloody night of chaos during the show’s run, the nation was captured by one inescapable question: How could this happen?
As the dust settles, investigative reporter Adam Jakes is tasked with uncovering the truth behind the massacre. Through a series of gripping interviews with survivors, cast members, and witnesses, Jakes pieces together the chilling reality behind what was supposed to be the ultimate theatrical experience.
In Come Knocking, the enthralling and terrifying exploration of human nature under extreme conditions poses unsettling questions about the limits of immersive experiences and the true nature of reality.

About the book
Natalie Sinclair thought moving across the country with her dad, the new pro football coach, would finally give her space to breathe. Instead, she collides with Brady Ryan—her twin brother’s teammate, the golden boy of Kroydon Hills, and the one guy she should keep at arm’s length. Brady is football royalty, but behind the swagger is someone who sees Natalie for exactly who she is. The sparks are undeniable.
Problem is, Natalie isn’t just Brady’s crush. She’s his best friend’s sister. Add in an ex who doesn’t play fair, and suddenly their stolen glances turn into a full-blown battle between desire and consequences.
If Brady can’t convince Natalie that love is worth the risk, he stands to lose not just the girl, but the future he’s dreamed of.
Will she choose him?

Robert Lindsey’s Edgar Award–winning The Falcon and the Snowman tells the true story of two unlikely Cold War traitors.
The Falcon and the Snowman
Biographies & Memoirs · True Crime
Our take
Robert Lindsey’s Edgar Award–winning The Falcon and the Snowman tells the true story of two unlikely Cold War traitors. Christopher Boyce, a disillusioned CIA contractor, and Andrew Daulton Lee, a drug dealer, sold U.S. secrets to the Soviets in a tale so wild it inspired a hit film. With a 4.4 out of 5 stars rating, it’s espionage at its most gripping.
Choose your retailer
About the book
At the height of the Cold War, the CIA’s most sensitive secrets flowed through a vault in Southern California. Christopher Boyce, a young contractor with a genius mind, a love of falconry, and a distaste for his country, had access to them all. Security was lax, temptation was strong, and betrayal soon followed.
With the help of his reckless best friend, Andrew Daulton Lee, Boyce smuggled classified documents to the Soviet embassy in Mexico City. What started as drunken bravado and easy money spiraled into one of the most audacious acts of treason in American history.
Winner of the Edgar Award and the basis for the acclaimed film, The Falcon and the Snowman is a real-life spy thriller as shocking as fiction.

Home Waters
Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
John N. Maclean’s Home Waters is a lyrical memoir of family, loss, and the Blackfoot River that inspired A River Runs Through It. Called “beautiful” by the Washington Post, this reflection on place and legacy traces the Maclean family’s century-long bond with Montana’s waters. With a 4.5 out of 5 stars rating, it’s both intimate and universal.
Choose your retailer
About the book
In Home Waters, John N. Maclean returns to Montana’s Blackfoot River, a place that has shaped his family for generations.
The river is legend. It was immortalized in Norman Maclean’s A River Runs Through It, and it still winds past the cabin John’s grandfather built by hand. Each summer, John returns to cast his line and chase the trout of a lifetime.
But the story here is more than fishing. It is family history marked by triumph, tragedy, and an unbreakable bond to place. John uncovers the real lives behind the characters his father fictionalized, including his luminous but doomed uncle Paul.
Part memoir, part elegy, Home Waters is about the ways land, water, and memory flow together to define who we are.
