New today: Endings by Linda L. Richards, published by Oceanview A woman steeped in tragedy becomes a contract killer, then finds herself on a propulsive journey of vengeance and, ultimately, redemption. PW starred review: “Richards combines a damaged protagonist readers will root for with a twisted, whiplash-fast plot filled with layers of moral ambiguity. This harrowing tale of love, loss, and the value of life is not to be missed.”  

Join me for the virtual launch of Endings, out today from Oceanview Press. "Brilliant. Terrifying. Compulsively readable." — Hallie Ephron - New York Times bestselling author of Careful What You Wish For “An unusually haunting thriller with a complex, seriously badass heroine. Endings brings you into a strange and dark world from page one, and then shows you the light. I highly recommend this book.” — Sheena Kamal author of Fights Like A Girl
