January Virtual Book Tour for BEHIND THESE FOUR WALLS by Yasmin Angoe

A young woman weaves her way into a billionaire family’s estate to uncover the truth behind the disappearance of her best friend in a nail-biting thriller full of corruption, wealth, morality, and revenge by #1 Amazon bestselling author Yasmin Angoe.

“Author Yasmin Angoe delivers an intriguing novel showcasing an all-POC cast and exploring the horrific power behind the rich, family secrets, found family, and inner perseverance.” —Booklist

A first-generation Ghanian American, recipient of the Eleanor Taylor Bland Award for Emerging Writers of Color, and author of the bestselling (and now optioned for TV series) Nena Knight espionage thriller trilogy, as well as the #1 bestselling psychological thriller, Not What She Seems – Yasmin Angoe is a fan favorite for those who adore suspense fiction. She’s also a critic’s darling. Her books have been praised as “deftly balancing action, interpersonal relationships, issues of trauma, and profound human questions” (Library Journal on Her Name is Knight), “Riveting. Character-driven. A literary thriller you will want to devour in one sitting” (The Washington Independent Review on Books on Not What She Seems), “grounding the plot’s surprising twists with lovable, fully realized characters” (Publishers Weekly on Not What She Seems), and writing “A dazzling, suspenseful tale of international intrigue” (The Guardian on Her Name is Knight).

In her new novel, BEHIND THESE FOUR WALLS (Thomas & Mercer; January 1, 2026), Yasmin Angoe builds upon her stellar reputation and delivers an exquisitely multi-layered psychological thriller full of family secrets, deep-seated revenge, and familial redemption.

Isla Thorne had a rough start in life. Orphaned young, she spent her formative years in a group home where she met her best friend, Eden Galloway. At sixteen, they decide to run away to LA… but Eden never makes it.

It’s been twelve years since Eden vanished. And Isla’s determined to find her.

She begins at the last place Eden visited: the Corrigan mansion in Virginia. Eden claimed to have unfinished business there. Posing as an aspiring journalist, Isla insinuates herself into the wealthy family’s home and begins searching for the truth.

The more she digs, the more Isla discovers Eden isn’t who she thought she was. Was she even a victim, or did Eden plan this all along? Desperate for answers and to keep her identity hidden, Isla finds an ally in one of the Corrigan sons. But as she wades deeper into this power-hungry family’s secrets and lies, she finds herself in the crosshairs of a bloodline that’s more lethal than loyal.


With heart-pounding danger, truly memorable characters, and continuously building tension ultimately resulting in a gasp-worthy conclusion, BEHIND THESE FOUR WALLS will linger in readers’ minds long after they’ve finished the last page. 

We hope you will join us in celebrating the release of BENEATH THESE FOUR WALLS. Follow along with this impressive list of social media influencers as they share reviews, excerpts, Q&As, and, yes, giveaways!

December Virtual Tour for ARTIFICIAL TRUTH by J.M. Lee, translated by Sean Lin Halbert

From J. M. Lee, a bestselling phenomenon in Korea, comes a haunting and mind-bending novel about the revolutionary possibilities of AI and the infinite mysteries of what it means to be human.

Advance Praise for ARTIFICIAL TRUTH:

“AI versus humanity: is it either/or, winner/loser, coexistence/destruction? Lee, convincingly ciphered by Halbert, expertly provokes.” Booklist

Praise for J.M. Lee’s Broken Summer:

“Lee excels at psychological realism, and Hanjo’s quest to learn the truth feels naturally driven by deep, painful emotions. The pace never feels forced, and Lee does a masterly job of selecting the telling detail…This exquisite portrait of minds torn apart by mourning will appeal not just to mystery readers.” Publishers Weekly, starred review

“This is an engrossing and beautifully written mystery, with complex characters that Lee delicately strips bare.” Library Journal, starred review

“This book’s shifting narrative forms a subtle yet beautiful meditation on how we view society and events in our lives from our own subjective vantage points.” Asian Review of Books

An “emotionally wrenching thriller.” New York Times, selected as one of The Best Thrillers of 2022

Known for his gripping plots, compelling characters, and close scrutiny of the nuances of human behavior, J.M. Lee is one of Korea’s most renowned authors and a master storyteller. Since his literary debut over two decades ago, he has sold millions of copies of his books, and some have been made into movies and television series. His latest novel ARTIFICIAL TRUTH is an evocative psychological thriller about artificial intelligence and its impact on humanity. It will be published in English for the first time, skillfully translated by Sean Lin Halbert on December 1, 2025, by Amazon Crossing.

J.M. Lee explains that his new novel began with the question, “What if an AI, trained on evil, began stalking a woman?” He continues, “I wanted to create a world where AI has changed everything from the way humans think and act, to social structures, work environments, and economic systems. In this setting, I wanted to raise questions about the reversed values of life and death, the ambiguity of truth and lies, the blurred lines between good and evil, and the unethical aspects of technical development.”

The result is a haunting story that will stay with you long after you turn the last page.

In the virtual city of Alegria, fantasies are made real, innumerable lifetimes are lived, and even death itself is a survivable experience. An escape from reality that changed the landscape of artificial intelligence, it is home to more than one hundred million people. Though it’s been six years since Alegria’s creator—revolutionary tech genius KC Kim—died of cancer, his legacy is alive in the pinnacle of KC’s genius: an AI named Allen who surges with KC’s memories.

As hard as KC’s widow, Minju, and her new husband, Junmo, try to move on, Minju can’t shake the unnerving feeling that someone is watching her. In the real world, she sees a stranger who bears an uncanny resemblance to KC. A pair of KC’s custom-made shoes arrive at her doorstep. And someone has booked a Tokyo hotel room where she and KC shared happier times. Minju’s fears about who – or what – is toying with her memories increase with each new encounter.

Certain of nothing except KC’s mad innovation, Minju can only imagine what he is accomplishing without even existing. How can she hope to escape KC’s unwavering control? And whose plans are they, really? The possibilities are frightening.

ARTIFICIAL TRUTH raises questions about the meaning of being human in an AI-dominated world. It’s an engrossing and thought-provoking novel you won’t be able to put down.

To celebrate the release of ARTIFICIAL TRUTH, we are hosting a virtual book tour throughout the month of December featuring these amazing influencers who will share reviews, spotlights, and giveaways. We hope you will follow along:

Virtual Book Tour: Nov. 24 – Jan. 9 for THE WONDROUS LIFE AND LOVES OF NELLA CARTER by Brionni Nwosu

“This debut is a testament to the strength of light in dark times, and the necessity of hope. Well-developed characters and a strong sense of place throughout history draw the reader in to the very end.” —Booklist, starred review

“The Wondrous Lives and Loves of Nella Carter is unlike any novel I’ve ever read—and I say that with the utmost praise. Brionni Nwosu is a truly gifted storyteller and I can’t wait to read what she writes next.” —Camille Pagán, bestselling author of Good for You

“A deft tale of love, loss, and reinvention, Nella Carter will have readers eagerly turning pages to the very end. A stunningly lovely debut!” —Nicole Glover, author of The Conductors

An unforgettable novel about eternal life, epic love, and the impossible hope that we’re still worth saving.

In THE WONDROUS LIFE AND LOVES OF NELLA CARTER (Lake Union Publishing; December 1, 2025), debut novelist Brionni Nwosu has penned an exquisite portrait of a young woman at the crossroads of life and death who embarks on an extraordinary journey across time.

Nwosu, a writer, educator and creative who lives in Nashville, poses the question: if Death gave you forever, would you still find reasons to believe in humanity? “This book gave me the opportunity to explore history through the eyes of a formerly enslaved woman—not through her trauma, but through her triumphs, her travels, and her unyielding hope, explains Nwosu. “I’ve always loved speculative stories that cross time and space, but rarely saw a Black woman like Nella at the center. With this book, I wanted to change that.”

Born enslaved in eighteenth-century Georgia, Nella Carter still believes in the will to survive amid the most untenable of conditions, in the glory of life, and in the ultimate goodness of the human race. When Nella strikes a deal with Death to prove humanity’s worth, she’s granted immortality – but across continents, centuries, lovers, and lifetimes, she must decide whether the human heart is resilient enough to be worth saving, or too fragile to survive.

With each new incarnation, Nella records the joys and losses, and the friendships and heartbreaks, throughout her lifetimes. When she meets handsome and passionate professor Sebastian Moore―the first man to whom she has ever revealed her secrets―Nella yearns for the mortality that escapes her. She can’t bear to leave this love behind.

As Death keeps watch, has Nella’s journey come to an end? Or is a new one just beginning?


With hauntingly breathtaking travels from Savannah, New Orleans, Paris, and London to New York, Montgomery, and Buenos Aires, combined with spellbinding prose, Brionni Nwosu weaves a dazzling tale about beauty, hope, endurance, and endless loves. Fans of Tia Williams’ A Love Song for Ricki Wilde, V.E. Schwab’s The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, Esi Edugyan’s Washington Black, and Erin Crosby Eckstine’s Junie will delight in THE WONDROUS LIFE AND LOVES OF NELLA CARTER.

To celebrate the publication of THE WONDROUS LIFE AND LOVES OF NELLA CARTER, we are hosting a virtual book tour with this stellar list of book influencers who will post reviews, features, and giveaways. We hope you will follow along!

December Virtual Tour for SNAKE-EATER by T. Kingfisher

From New York Times bestselling and Hugo Award–winning author T. Kingfisher comes an enthralling contemporary fantasy about a woman trying to escape her past by moving to the remote US desert―only to find herself beholden to the wrath of a vengeful god.

“Hugo and Nebula Award-winner Kingfisher (Hemlock & Silver) provides all the chills, thrills and laughs she’s known for in this dextrous dark fantasy…Kingfisher remains extremely good at what she does.” – Publishers Weekly, starred review

“Readers will enjoy the found family theme but should beware—this roadrunner is nothing like the one from the cartoon.” – Booklist

“Delightful supporting characters, intriguing mythology, and a neurodivergent protagonist come together for an entertaining story. Besides fans of Kingfisher’s (Hemlock and Silver), place it in the hands of readers of Katherine Addison and Lois McMaster Bujold.”    – Library Journal

“The appeal of the tale [is] characterized by Kingfisher’s familiar mix of creeping horror, sharp wit, and ingratiating characters… The bleak setting of Snake-Eater may seem modest compared to Kingfisher’s more baroque fantasies, but its detailed and at times gritty depiction of a real community in a real environment might just make it more affecting.” – Locus Magazine

The Wood-Wife by Terri Windling and The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo meets Black Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse in SNAKE-EATER (47 North; December 1, 2025), the captivating new novel from the beloved fantasy author T. Kingfisher. With a remote desert setting, a house brimming with secrets, a wonderfully eclectic cast of characters including desert spirits and gods, SNAKE-EATER has all of the rich, dark fantasy elements as well as humor and heart that make Kingfisher’s novels unforgettable and unputdownable.  

Kingfisher explains “If I was going to describe the platonic ideal of a Kingfisher horror novel, it would probably be a woman and her dog alone in a house full of creepy family secrets. That was the plot of my first horror novel, The Twisted Ones, and I often find books trying to bend in that direction and having to wrestle them back into line. It was a weird relief with SNAKE-EATER to just embrace it wholeheartedly.”

With only a few dollars to her name and her beloved dog Copper by her side, Selena flees her past in the city to claim her late aunt’s house in the desert town of Quartz Creek. The scorpions and spiders are better than what she left behind.

Because in Quartz Creek, there’s a strange beauty to everything, from the landscape to new friends, and more blue sky than Selena’s ever seen. But something lurks beneath the surface. Like the desert gods and spirits lingering outside Selena’s house at night, keeping watch. Mostly benevolent, says her neighbor Grandma Billy. That doesn’t ease the prickly sense that one of them watches too closely and wants something from Selena she can’t begin to imagine. And when Selena’s search for answers leads her to journal entries that her aunt left behind, she discovers a sinister truth about her new home: It’s the haunting grounds of an ancient god known simply as “Snake-Eater,” who her late aunt made a promise to that remains unfulfilled.

Snake-Eater has taken a liking to Selena, an obsession of sorts that turns sinister. And now that Selena is the new owner of his home, he’s hell-bent on collecting everything he’s owed.

We hope you will follow along on our virtual tour to celebrate the release of SNAKE-EATER with this superb list of influencers as they share reviews, excerpts, features, Q&As, and lots of giveaways!

Virtual Tour for THE LIE SHE WEARS, Elle Marr’s chilling new psychological thriller: November 18 – December 19th!

#1 Amazon Charts bestselling author Elle Marr turns the tables on the classic male serial killer narrative in this taut psychological thriller, set in the art world, that is filled with shocking family secrets and twists at every turn.

“Elle Marr always brings the goods when it comes to family drama and trauma, and she cranks it up to eleven in THE LIE SHE WEARS. She weaves a diabolical tapestry of lies, mystery, and murder from the first letter Pearl receives from her recently deceased mother to the jaw-dropping conclusion. So, make sure your schedule is cleared, because once the twists start coming, you won’t be doing anything else.” —Tony Wirt, bestselling author of Pike Island

“THE LIE SHE WEARS, weaves a chilling tale of murder, obsession, resilience, and the importance of family ties. Elle Marr explores the emotional depths of her complex and compelling characters and what motivates them, good or bad. You’ll leave Marr’s next bestseller feeling both gutted and entirely satisfied.”—Yasmin Angoe, bestselling author of Her Name is Knight and Not What She Seems

“Elle Marr returns with another trademark psychological family thriller. Twisty and heartfelt, THE LIE SHE WEARS keeps readers guessing until the end.” —Tori Eldridge, bestselling author of Kaua‘i Storm

Over the course of the past five years, Elle Marr has skyrocketed to the top of the charts with her signature take on the psychological suspense genre. Marr has stunned critics and readers alike with her deft character development featuring Asian-American protagonists, exceptionally eerie details, and astonishing plot twists. She now returns with her most sensational novel yet, THE LIE SHE WEARS (Thomas & Mercer; November 18, 2025).

Fans of Ashley Flower’s The Missing Half, Lisa Jewell’s Don’t Let Him In, Alafair Burke’s The Note, and Frieda McFadden’s The Tenant will be enthralled by this white-knuckled thriller about a museum curator who inherits her mother’s deadly secrets.  

Pearl Davis always had a strained relationship with her mother, Sally. Growing up, she rarely felt her mother’s love. So many things about her mother’s behavior never added up. But when Sally dies unexpectedly, she leaves Pearl a letter from the grave…confessing to murder.

Suddenly, Pearl has even more questions than she has answers. She suspects the letter is just a sign of her mother’s diminished state of mind―until she finds human remains in Sally’s garden. With the help of a friend, Pearl begins searching for the truth of her mother’s actions―and as she does, more cryptic notes emerge. But these letters aren’t just clues behind a confession. They’re a warning. Sally was terrified of something.

When more remains are discovered, it’s clear whatever secrets Sally died with are now Pearl’s to bear. And as darkness closes in, Pearl fears that her mother’s past could be the death of her.

This intricately woven tale is told alternately between the present and the past, with each chapter adding another layer of intrigue and terror. If you enjoy thrillers packed with nail-biting psychological suspense, breathtaking twists, and unforgettable characters, you won’t be able to turn the pages fast enough to discover the surprising conclusion of THE LIE SHE WEARS. 

We hope you will join us in the festivities we have planned to celebrate the release of THE LIE SHE WEARS! Follow along with this stellar list of social media influencers as they share reviews, excerpts, Q&As, and lots of giveaways!
