Mystery, Thriller, & Suspense

Besieged by A. J. Tata
Checking in on the schoolteacher daughter of a colleague, former Delta Captain Jake Mahegan finds himself face to face with a merciless gunman rigged as a suicide bomber. Without warning, the school is attacked from the outside as well -- and all hell breaks loose. The teacher shoots the gunman, Mahegan is knocked unconscious, and a twelve-year-old autistic girl named Misha is kidnapped. When the smoke clears, Mahegan is left with a long list of unanswered questions -- and a deeply personal mission to rescue Misha. Racing against the clock, his search will take him from the tech-fueled think-tanks of a North Carolina factory to the top-secret nerve centers of embedded Iranian agents. It's all part of a bigger, darker conspiracy that's taking domestic terrorism to a whole new level. And it's up to Mahegan to stop what could be the most devastating attack in U.S. history...

The Second Mrs. Hockaday by Susan Rivers
This is an amazing book, I simply loved everything about it. Any fan of historical fiction, novels about human failings and dialog that is almost poetic should read this book. The depiction of the Civil War on a very personal level to one woman is stirring and hard to take in. The book is a series of letters to and from various family members and by then end of the first 30 pages you feel invested in every member involved. In some ways it is a revisit to the time when letters were the form of communication that existed and what a picture they could paint. It is hard to believe this is a debut novel, the writing is wonderful.

I Will Send Rain by Rae Meadows
Though set in Oklahoma at the beginning of the Dust Bowl, I Will Send Rain reminds me of One Foot in Eden by Ron Rash, and I think it will greatly appeal to Southern book clubs. Rae's novel centers around the Bell family and their own personal tragedies (a flighty teenage daughter, a couple grown apart after the death of a child years before) amid the greater hardship of the Dust Bowl and Great Depression that are affecting the Bells and their entire community.
