Book Description
From New York Times bestselling adult author Joseph Fink comes a wickedly fun middle grade novel about a Halloween-obsessed girl named Esther Gold, who goes out trick-or-treating for one last year, only to find her town under the thrall of a mysterious presence. Esther Gold loves Halloween more than anything in the world. So she is determined to go trick-or-treating again this year despite the fact that her parents think she is officially too old. Esther has it all planned out, from her costume to her candy-collecting strategy. But when the night rolls around, something feels . . . off. No one is answering their door. The moon is an unnatural shade of orange. Strange children wander the streets, wearing creepy costumes that might not be costumes at all. And it seems like the only people besides Esther who are awake to see it all are her best friend, her school bully, and her grown-up next-door neighbor. Together, this unlikely crew must find a way to lift the curse that has been placed upon their small town before it’s too late. Because someone is out to make sure Halloween never comes to an end. And even Esther doesn’t want to be trapped in this night forever.

Book Description
Michael O'Brien, a somewhat spoiled 12-year-old, is puzzled when his workaholic mom insists on a two-month road trip, to New Mexico, in the middle of the school year. While exploring in Roswell, they encounter the Timizhon family, aliens from the planet Loam. During a tour of the spaceship, Michael accidentally causes it to take off on a nonstop course for Loam. Upon arrival, the O'Briens and the Timizhons are met by Looster, a sinister Avarian who is temporarily ruling Loam. Looster refuses to allow the O'Briens to return to Earth, and places them under compound detention at the Timizhon's vast estate. Michael and his mother have many good and bad experiences on Loam, including being subjected to medical examinations and experimentations to determine their compatibility for existing on Loam. Overtime, the O'Briens uncover and thwart Looster's diabolical plan to takeover Loam as well and all the other planets in its universe, before moving on to conquer Earth.

Book Description
"'Daingerfield Island' puts the ''i'' in danger: intelligent, imaginative, intriguing. The book is a timely metaphor about the power of alternative facts in a post-truth world.'' --Michael Neff, author of All The Dark We Will Not See ''Wasowicz's promising legal thriller series launch introduces savvy Washington, D.C., defense attorney Mo Katz. Mo is retained by Nate Harding, who the police believe was involved in the drowning of Libby Lewis, the chief of staff for the Senate Intelligence Committee, who was found floating in the Potomac River near Daingerfield Island. But Mo doesn't know that Harding has been working with a shady CIA operative, Jack Smith, who planned to lure a lone wolf terrorist into a trap on the island with Lewis's help. Lewis was going to pass him a flash drive that ostensibly contained details to facilitate a hit on a 'flamboyant Arabian sheik,' but that daring covert operation went awry. Smith convinces Harding to offer himself up as a temporary murder suspect, to give Smith a chance to cover his tracks and to develop a new plan to catch the terrorist. Mo must look beyond his new client s questionable representation to learn the truth about the congressional staffer's death. Wasowicz's experience as a trial attorney is put to good use in courtroom scenes, and he's equally adept with action sequences.'' --Book Life/Publisher's Weekly
