HUMANS<br />

HAIG, MATT<br />

The Humans is a compulsively readable novel about alien abduction, mathematics and that most<br />

interesting subject of all: ourselves. Our hero, Professor Andrew Martin, is dead before the book even<br />

begins. As it turns out, though, he wasn’t a very nice man—as the alien imposter who now occupies his<br />

body discovers. Sent to Earth to destroy evidence that Andrew had solved a major mathematical problem,<br />

the alien soon finds himself learning more about the professor, his family and “the humans” than he ever<br />

expected. When he begins to fall for his own wife and son—who have no idea he’s not the real Andrew—<br />

he must choose between completing his mission and finding a new home, right here on Earth.<br />

HUNTED<br />

ROBARDS, KAREN<br />

Caroline Wallace is one of New Orleans PD’s top hostage negotiators, and she’s never failed to get every<br />

hostage out alive. But this time, it’s different. This time, the hostages include her boss—the chief of<br />

police—and the mayor. And this time, she’s trying to negotiate with Reed Ware, a former co-worker who<br />

left the force disgraced, under investigation by Internal Affairs, and worst of all, considered to be volatile<br />

and extremely dangerous. As police snipers arrive on the scene and manage to get a clear shot of Reed,<br />

Caroline knows she only has a few moments left to persuade the hot-headed, reckless (and extremely<br />

handsome) Reed to let the hostages go and turn himself in before anyone gets hurt. When the SWAT<br />

team runs out of patience and launches an attack, Reed takes Caroline hostage and manages to escape<br />

with her in the chaos. During the escape, Reed reveals to Caroline that he’s uncovered corruption at the<br />

highest levels of the police department and New Orleans city government, and those involved will stop at<br />

nothing to keep him from exposing what he knows…including murder.<br />

THE HUSBAND'S SECRET<br />

MORIARTY, LIANE<br />

Imagine that your husband wrote you a letter, to be opened after his death. Imagine, too, that the letter<br />

contains his deepest, darkest secret—something with the potential to destroy not just the life you built<br />

together, but the lives of others as well. Imagine, then, that you stumble across that letter while your<br />

husband is still very much alive. . . . Cecilia Fitzpatrick has achieved it all—she’s an incredibly successful<br />

businesswoman, a pillar of her small community, and a devoted wife and mother. Her life is as orderly and<br />

spotless as her home. But that letter is about to change everything, and not just for her.<br />
