About the book
A desperate race to revive an alien buried on an icy moon. A fringe cult tuned into signals from the stars. And two extraordinary women willing to risk everything to forge humanity’s destiny.
The second and final entry in the electrifying series from multimillion-copy international bestselling authors Douglas E. Richards and Joshua T. Calvert.
Four years after the world-changing events of Frequency, the fragile hope born on Europa has fractured under cults, conspiracy theories, and misread alien wisdom. When a remote group in Patagonia begins displaying synchronized brainwave patterns that match nothing on Earth, Alexandra and Ethan Calloway race to investigate. What they find is astonishing: signals from a distant star system channeled through something hidden in the Patagonian wilderness—something that shouldn’t exist.
On Jupiter’s frozen moon, Milo Daven and Elena Vasquez lead a desperate mission to reach the alien whose message changed the world. In an environment that makes Antarctica seem like paradise, they’ll attempt the unthinkable: a rescue that could rewrite humanity’s place in the universe.
As parallel threads of discovery converge, Alexandra, Elena, and their teams confront questions that push the boundaries of science, consciousness, and the interconnectedness of all things. Are we ready for what comes next?
A mind-bending journey into hidden frequencies that bind minds across worlds, Frequency 2 delivers the jaw-dropping payoff to one of the most visionary first-contact series ever written.

REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK | #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“This fast-paced read has everything you could want in a thriller: secret identities, a mysterious boss and a cat & mouse game that kept me guessing the whole way through.” —Reese Witherspoon
Evie Porter has everything a nice Southern girl could want: a doting boyfriend, a house with a white picket fence, a tight group of friends. The only catch: Evie Porter doesn’t exist.
The identity comes first: Evie Porter. Once she’s given a name and location by her mysterious boss, Mr. Smith, she learns everything there is to know about the town and the people in it. Then the mark: Ryan Sumner. The last piece of the puzzle is the job.
Evie isn’t privy to Mr. Smith’s real identity, but she knows this job isn't like the others. Ryan has gotten under her skin, and she’s starting to envision a different sort of life for herself. But Evie can’t make any mistakes—especially after what happened last time.
Evie Porter must stay one step ahead of her past while making sure there's still a future in front of her. The stakes couldn't be higher—but then, Evie has always liked a challenge. . . .

About the book
“Phantoms is gruesome and unrelenting…It’s well realized, intelligent, and humane.”—Stephen King
They found the town silent, apparently abandoned. Then they found the first body, strangely swollen and still warm. One hundred fifty were dead, 350 missing. But the terror had only begun in the tiny mountain town of Snowfield, California.
At first they thought it was the work of a maniac. Or terrorists. Or toxic contamination. Or a bizarre new disease.
But then they found the truth. And they saw it in the flesh. And it was worse than anything any of them had ever imagined...

About the book
A detective's fall from grace. A rookie's baptism by fire. A town's secrets laid bare.
“…reads like the real deal—a tale of trial and redemption…”—Craig Johnson, author of the Walt Longmire Mysteries
In the unforgiving wilderness of Maine, a disgraced detective must confront his past to solve a chilling murder.
Detective Brock Justice's career is on thin ice. Once the golden boy of Maine State Police, Brock now finds himself exiled to the remote northeastern wilderness, punishment for crossing the thin blue line. Assigned to the Major Crimes Unit—North, he suffers the added indignity of partnering with newly-minted Detective Chloe Wright, a rookie with her own hidden struggles.
The pair’s uneasy alliance is put to the test almost immediately when a routine snowmobile retrieval in the coastal town of Blue Hill unexpectedly escalates into a full-blown murder investigation. Even as the case exposes the darkest corners of the town, their fragile partnership threatens to undermine the investigation at every turn.
Brock and Chloe's hunt draws them into the lives of several intriguing locals: the town doctor, a biker gang involved in drug trafficking, a politically connected sheriff, and Brock’s own father. With each revelation, the line between ally and enemy blurs, compelling Brock and Chloe to question their trust in everyone around them, including each other.
Even as winter's icy grip loosens from Blue Hill, the noose of suspicion tightens. Brock must navigate not only a shaky partnership and a town harboring deadly secrets, but also the shadows of his own past. Can he and Chloe piece together the puzzle before Maine's wilderness swallows them whole?
Retired Detective Sergeant Bruce Robert Coffin delivers a masterful blend of police procedural and small-town intrigue in this page-turning thriller. Perfect for fans of Craig Johnson's Longmire series and C.J. Box's Joe Pickett novels.

About the book
The #1 international bestselling author of Twenty Years Later and The Girl Who Was Taken delivers a twisting suspense novel about a murdered law school student, the reporter assigned to her story—and the intimate connection that comes when the living walk in the footsteps of the dead…
“A gem of a mystery, fast-paced and suspenseful.” —Catherine Coulter, # 1 New York Times bestselling author on Summit Lake
No suspects. No persons of interest. Just a girl who was alive one day and dead the next.
Some places seem too beautiful to be touched by horror. Summit Lake, nestled in North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains, is that kind of place. But two weeks ago, Becca Eckersley, a first-year law student and daughter of a powerful attorney, was brutally murdered there. Now the town is reeling with grief, and the police are baffled.
At first, investigative reporter Kelsey Castle thinks of the assignment as a fluff piece. But the savagery of the crime, and the efforts to keep it quiet, hint at something far more sinister than a random attack by a stranger. As Kelsey digs deeper, despite danger and warnings, she feels a growing connection to the dead girl. And the more she learns about Becca’s friendships, her love life—and her secrets—the more convinced she becomes that walking in Becca’s footsteps could lead her out of her own dark past…
