PRE-SALE Vermilion Sunrise (Hard Cover) Lydia P. Brownlow
$33.95
Same galaxy, different view.
Seventeen-year-old Leigh awakens from cryosleep to discover she’s part of the first human colony in another solar system. The cryosleep is flawed. It kills adults and causes partial amnesia. As a result, the nations of Earth have launched into space an unlikely group—teenagers with no memory of volunteering for the mission.
Ten light-years from home, they land on a planet largely covered by water. The good news: some water is drinkable. The bad news: none of their technology works. As the colonists struggle to survive, strange debris washes ashore, and a surprising discovery challenges everything they thought they knew. With a makeshift raft and meager supplies, Leigh and a small band of explorers venture across the open ocean in search of answers.
But the truth may be more than they bargained for, especially for Leigh, who’s been lying to everyone since she arrived ….

PRE-SALE All the Memories that Remain by E.M. Liddick (hard cover)
$29.95
Dad’s eyes peer into an infinite black hole.
He’s lost … and I with him.
When E.M. Liddick, a legal advisor to a special operations task force, returns from another tour in Afghanistan, he finds his formerly idyllic life in shambles. He’s haunted by the decisions he made overseas, he’s just told his wife of eleven years he’s no longer in love with her, and his father––the person whom he would have turned to for advice—is ten-years deep into a battle with younger-onset Alzheimer’s. Broken and lost, Liddick wonders, How can I possibly find my way without you, Dad?
Then he remembers his father’s letters to him during Marine Corps bootcamp. In those letters, scrawled in indelible script, he discovers old memories and new ways to heal, along with the enduring image of his father—and, perhaps, Liddick’s old self as well.
An unflinchingly vulnerable memoir, All the Memories That Remain stands witness to one man’s fall from grace and his journey to find meaning in what remains.

The Alphabet Woods (Hard Cover) by Jenny Poelman
$33.00
The process was messier than she had anticipated, a mixture of tears and runny noses and dirt and ash, but that was perfectly appropriate. Life when lived, truly lived, was messy.
After a series of life-changing events, fifty-seven-year-old Key North breaks with her usual conventional, acquiescing nature and impulsively purchases a house situated above a patch of woods in rural North Carolina. The move surprises everyone, even herself, and irritates her possessive friend Iris.
Key’s just getting acquainted with this change when she’s visited by her cousin Guy, whom she hasn’t heard from in nearly a decade. With him comes a shocking and difficult challenge, one she’s not sure she’s equipped to handle.
As Key slowly unravels the many complexities that accompany her decision, she finds herself far from her former predictable, unfulfilled life. It’s as though she’s stepped into an alternate world where a little boy’s backpack holds dangerous secrets, an unseen hand is guiding her, and the trees provide the answers she seeks.
