Normandy Gold by Megan Abbott (January, Titan Comics) - I've been waiting for this since the days of the Vertigo Crime graphic novels. It took a while but the book finally found a home with publisher Titan Comics. Can't wait.
Redemption Point by Candice Fox (February, Penguin Random House) - I loved Crimson Lake
Help I Am Being Held Prisoner by Donald Westlake (February, Hard Case Crime) - Another Westalke book gets the reprint treatment by Hard Case Crime.
The Line Becomes A River by Francisco Cantu (February, Penguin Random House) - A memoir from a Mexican-American US Border Patrol guard. I've always been fascinated by these tales and look forward to reading more about this dangerous border posting.
Hellbent by Gregg Hurwitz (February, Penguin Random House) - Orphan X was my new series find of 2017 and this third installment looks just as promising as the earlier books in the series in Orphan X and The Nowhere Man.
The Last Stand by Mickey Spillane (March, Hard Case Crime) - billed as the last complete novel by Mickey Spillane.
Side By Side: A Novel of Bonnie Parker by Jenni L. Walsh (June, Forge) - Becoming Bonnie was great. I'll be getting the audiobook edition (finger crossed Susan Bennett narrates once again).
Felix Culpa by Jeremy Gavron (June, Scribe) - I like to take a chance on a book or two (usually many more) that's a little outside my already eclectic tastes and this is one. You had me at the blurb:
In Felix Culpa, Jeremy Gavron has conjured up a work of extraordinary literary alchemy: a detective novel made out of phrases and sentences from a hundred other books. It follows a writer on the trail of a dead boy recently released from prison. But in searching for the boy's story, will be lose his own?
Give Me Your Hand by Megan Abbott (July, Pan MacMillan) - a new Megan Abbott book? I don't even need to read the blurb. Instant pre-order. The recent book You Will Know Me was great by the way.
