Book Description
A mysterious group of killers-the Wolves-terrorize the nation. No one knows where they came from or why they murder thousands of innocent civilians. Resi Kepler is a nurse who cares for those injured in the attacks. The Wolves left her without parents, famously taking them as their first victims. When Resi is knocked out during an attack, she discovers a startling ability. She sees the memories of dead Wolf victims in her sleep. Which is insane. And a little awkward considering the number of people dropping dead around her lately. She taps into her favorite defense mechanism: avoidance. She ignores it; acts like it's not happening. If she doesn't acknowledge it, it can't be real. Right? But another person she loves is taken. So, Resi accepts the insanity and dives into the memories of the dead to find the Wolves, save her friend, and avenge her parents. As Resi gets closer to uncovering the mysteries surrounding the Wolves, however, she finds herself undeniably connected to them. She begins to wonder if the killing sprees are really all that bad. In fact, if she stops the terrorists, she thinks more people may die. Is Resi being brainwashed? Are the killings justified? Will she find out why she has this creepy gift? Is she really the one endangering the nation by attempting to disarm the Wolves? ***A new thriller/suspense novel. This action-packed book is simultaneously dark and disturbing, yet fun and comedic. It is sure to keep you glued to every last page!*** ***Editorial Review*** "The Afterthoughts is a truly one of a kind supernatural thriller. Resi Kepler is shocked and outraged by the violence of a domestic terrorist group known as The Wolves. Their violence seems to know no limits as they target men, women, children, and most noteworthy - the hospital. In the midst of violence, something else is happening... One night, Resi has a peculiar dream, as if she is watching first-person memories. The dreams become a startling reality when Resi realizes that the person whose memories she was seeing is dead. "A gripping page-turner, The Afterthoughts will keep you wanting more. Author Rene Fenner skillfully crafts action, suspense, and raw emotion with each word. Vivid characters and exceptional dialogue will envelope you in the story and send your imagination running wild. Rene Fenner is a master of storytelling. You have never read a book like The Afterthoughts and never will again!" - The Lost Chapter Book Review

Book Description
In the middle of nowhere, amidst the endless blackness of a forever night, there is a train. Ordinarily it speeds along in the empty darkness. As much as a train can speed along, when it has no track to speed upon and no landscape to speed through. Motion, like time, reason and destination, is an affectation here. An unnamed narrator wakes suddenly to find himself in the compartment of a train he cannot remember boarding. His fellow passengers are both strange and familiar. Together, they must work out the truth of their situation. Are they memories of long, forgotten souls, or something else? And what links them through the mists of time. They are the afterthoughts, trapped in their past, searching for a future.

Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
“This timely novel takes on friendship, desire, fear, and vulnerability in one incisive, witty, and powerful package.” —People “Astonishes with the force of its unexpected beauty.” —The New York Times Book Review The author of the “graceful and compassionate” (People) New York Times bestseller Carry the One presents a new and long-awaited novel exploring what happens when untested people are put to a hard test, and in its aftermath, find themselves in a newly uncertain world. It’s the fall of 2016. Cate, a set designer in her early forties, lives and works in Chicago’s theater community. She has stayed too long at the fair and knows it’s time to get past her prolonged adolescence and stop taking handouts from her parents. She has a firm plan to get solvent and settled in a serious relationship. She has tentatively started something new even as she’s haunted by an old, going-nowhere affair. Her ex-husband, recently booted from his most recent marriage, is currently camped out in Cate’s spare bedroom, in thrall to online conspiracy theories, and she’s not sure how to help him. Her best friend Neale, a yoga instructor, lives nearby with her son and is Cate’s model for what serious adulthood looks like. Only a few blocks away, but in a parallel universe we find Nathan and Irene—casual sociopaths, drug addicts, and small-time criminals. Their world and Cate’s intersect the day she comes into Neale’s kitchen to find these strangers assaulting her friend. Forced to take fast, spontaneous action, Cate does something she’s never even considered. She now also knows the violence she is capable of, as does everyone else in her life, and overnight, their world has changed. Anshaw’s flawed, sympathetic, and uncannily familiar characters grapple with their altered relationships and identities against the backdrop of the new Trump presidency and a country waking to a different understanding of itself. Eloquent, moving, and beautifully observed, Right after the Weather is the work of a master of exquisite prose and a wry and compassionate student of the human condition writing at the height of her considerable powers.
