https://stores.barnesandnoble.com/event/9780062156056-0 Join us for a panel discussion and signing with Author Karen Katchur and Editor Melissa Frain. Q&A session with the relationship of Author & Editor. When a kidnapping goes awry, three desperate characters find themselves trapped inside a remote cabin with a baby and a bag full of money. Noah is a kidnapper, hired to buy a baby from a human trafficking ring and smuggle her across the Canadian border for a cool half a million dollars. Eve is a teenage runaway, who takes the infant-and the sack full of cash-away from him. Hester is an outcast, living alone in a backwoods cottage, harboring secrets of her own. When their paths cross, it's anyone's guess who'll come out on top. With the law hot on their trail and the traffickers' hired guns closing in, this unlikely trio is soon holed up together-and at one another's throats. They'll stop at nothing to save their own skins and escape with the loot and child. But which of the greedy three will be the last one standing? One thing's for sure: no one will emerge unscathed . . . Wildly inventive and darkly comic, this new thriller from the bestselling author of River Bodies is perfect for fans of Jane Harper, Jennifer Hillier, Mare of Easttown, and the Coen brothers.  Praise for The Greedy Three "Tense, darkly funny, and deeply entertaining, with quirky characters that are wholly original. Katchur's clever crime thriller surprised me in all the best ways and kept me riveted till the very last page." -Laura McHugh, award-winning author of What's Done in Darkness "A darkly funny mystery with a cast of quirky characters, a scintillating premise, and a beating heart. It's the perfect book for fans of the Coen brothers and Tarantino films." -Robyn Harding, bestselling author of The Perfect Family Praise for Karen Katchur "Karen Katchur is a master at writing into the dark spaces of our intimate family relationships." -Mindy Mejia, author of Everything You Want Me to Be "I'm entranced by Karen Katchur's direct, well-crafted prose, artful plotting, and characters that leap from the page." -Marissa Stapley, bestselling author of Things to Do When It's Raining "Karen Katchur knows how to write and write well about ordinary people stretched to their limits." -David Bell, bestselling author of The Forgotten Girl

Join us for John Winn Miller in conversation with Tom Eblen discussing and signing The Hunt for the Peggy C. Location & Time: Saturday, February 4, 2023 - 4:00pm Joseph-Beth Booksellers 161 Lexington Green Circle Lexington, KY 40503 Event link: https://www.josephbeth.com/event/john-winn-miller-conversation-tom-eblen-discussing-and-signing-hunt-peggy-c John Winn Miller's The Hunt for the Peggy C, a semifinalist in the Clive Cussler Adventure Writers Competition, captures the breathless suspense of early World War II in the North Atlantic. Captain Jake Rogers, experienced in running his tramp steamer through U-boat-infested waters to transport vital supplies and contraband to the highest bidder, takes on his most dangerous cargo yet after witnessing the oppression of Jews in Amsterdam: a Jewish family fleeing Nazi persecution. The normally aloof Rogers finds himself drawn in by the family's warmth and faith, but he can't afford to let his guard down when Oberleutnant Viktor Brauer, a brutal U-boat captain, sets his sights on the Peggy C. Rogers finds himself pushed to the limits of his ingenuity as he evades Brauer's relentless stalking, faces a mutiny among his own crew, and grapples with his newfound feelings for Miriam, the young Jewish woman whom, along with her family, he must transport to safety. When Rogers is seriously wounded, Miriam must prove she is as tough as her rhetoric to save everyone as the U-boat closes in for the kill. The Hunt for the Peggy C is a masterpiece laced with nail-biting tension and unexpectedly heartwarming moments that any reader, not just fans of naval fiction, will enjoy.
