Allen Eskens recommends
Distant Sons (2023)
Tim Johnston
"Tim Johnston's Distant Sons is the kind of novel that inspires writers like me to want to step up our game. His prose is both elegant and raw, with characters so real you want to sit down and have a beer with them. Mr. Johnston is a writer with a gift, and if you haven't had the pleasure to read him, I highly recommend picking up this book."
Finding Grace (2022)
Maren Cooper
"Finding Grace is a heartrending story of a father's unconditional love for his daughter, the strength of that bond over time and distance, and the fortitude of a community to band together in difficult times. Maren Cooper skillfully leads her readers through a labyrinth of love, hope, commitment, and the complexity of relationships. This is an emotional must-read that will make you feel sad, happy, grateful, and hopeful."
All We Buried (2020)
(Sheriff Bet Rivers Mystery, book 1)
Elena Taylor
"A wonderful protagonist [and] a stellar mystery with a current of tension and suspicion powerful enough to quicken your pulse."
