About the book
Practical Magic meets Gone Girl in Ava Morgyn's instant USA Today bestseller, a dark, spellbinding novel about a woman who is more than a witch—she's a hunter.
Piers Corbin has always had an affinity for poisonous things—plants and men. From the pokeweed berries she consumed at age five that led to the accidental death of a stranger, to the husband whose dark proclivities have become… concerning, poison has been at the heart of her story.
But when she fakes her own death in an attempt to escape her volatile marriage and goes to stay with her estranged great aunt in the mountains, she realizes her predilection is more than a hunger—it’s a birthright. Piers comes from a long line of poison eaters—Bane Witches—women who ingest deadly plants and use their magic to rid the world of evil men.
Piers sets out to earn her place in her family’s gritty but distinguished legacy, all while working at her Aunt Myrtle’s cafe and perpetuating a flirtation with the local, well-meaning sheriff to allay his suspicions on the body count she’s been leaving in her wake. But soon she catches the attention of someone else, a serial killer operating in the area. And that only means one thing—it’s time to feed.
In Ava Morgyn’s dark, thrilling novel, The Bane Witch, a very little poison can do a world of good.

Identity fractures long before the system admits anything is wrong.
A Scanner Darkly
Sci-Fi · Literary Fiction · Cyberpunk · Psychological Fiction · Speculative Fiction
Our take
Identity fractures long before the system admits anything is wrong. In A Scanner Darkly, an undercover agent hunts a drug dealer without realizing they are the same man, as Substance D erodes memory, loyalty, and any stable sense of self. The novel blends dystopian surveillance, psychological collapse, and drug-fueled paranoia into a sci-fi classic that feels disorienting, intimate, and devastating.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Winner of the British Science Fiction Association Award for Best Novel, Philip K. Dick's A Scanner Darkly is a semi-autobiographical novel of drug addiction set in a future American dystopia — and the basis for the Hugo Award finalist film starring Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, and Robert Downey, Jr.
"A Scanner Darkly is about a descent into the deep fears of our 24-hour consumer society: the twilight of intellectual and emotional collapse...A fascinating portrait of 70s Californian counter-culture."—The Guardian
Bob Arctor is a junkie and a drug dealer, both using and selling the mind-altering Substance D. Fred is an undercover agent, tasked with bringing Bob down. It sounds like a standard case. The only problem is that Bob and Fred are the same person. Substance D doesn’t just alter the mind, it splits it in two, and neither side knows what the other is doing or that it even exists. Now, both sides are growing increasingly paranoid as Bob tries to evade Fred while Fred tries to evade his suspicious bosses. In this dystopian future, friends can become enemies, good trips can turn terrifying, and cops and criminals are two sides of the same coin. Caustically funny and somberly contemplative, Dick fashions a psychological thriller that is as unnerving as it is enthralling.
"Dick is Thoreau plus the death of the American dream."—Roberto Bolaño

About the book
Stockholm, 1793. A mutilated corpse rises from the rancid waters of the Larder, a grotesque puzzle that could unravel the city itself. With the monarchy collapsing and whispers of conspiracy everywhere, the investigation falls to Cecil Winge, a brilliant lawyer whose health is failing, and Mikel Cardell, a cynical watchman drowning his past in drink.
Together, they descend into Stockholm’s underworld: thieves’ dens, brothels, workhouses, and palaces alike, where corruption festers behind every door. Each clue peels back another layer of the city’s rot, revealing lives destroyed by greed, cruelty, and desperation.
Time is running out—for Winge’s body, for Cardell’s soul, and for justice itself. This is no simple murder. It is Stockholm laid bare, in all its blood, brilliance, and ruin.

About the book
Robin Loxleigh and his sister Marianne are the hit of the Season, so attractive and delightful that nobody looks behind their pretty faces.
Until Robin sets his sights on Sir John Hartlebury's heiress niece. The notoriously graceless baronet isn't impressed by good looks or fooled by false charm. He's sure Robin is a liar, a fortune hunter, and a heartless, greedy fraud - and he'll protect his niece, whatever it takes.
Then, just when Hart thinks he has Robin at his mercy, things take a sharp left turn. And as the grumpy baronet and the glib fortune hunter start to understand each other, they also find themselves starting to care - more than either of them thought possible.
But Robin's cheated and lied and let people down for money. Can a professional rogue earn an honest happy ever after?
