New Books for a New Year

HAPPY NEW YEAR! 

Well, here we are in 2013!  Having survived the Mayan apocalypse of 12/21/12, we can now leap into the new year with a list of brand new mysteries.  This month's selection includes  offerings from favorite authors as well as some interesting pairings such as Blood Gospel by James Rollins and Rebecca Cantrell.  Rollins is the bestselling author of scientific and historical thrillers as well as the Sigma Force novels.  Ms. Cantrell has won numerous awards for her series featuring journalist Hannah Vogel set in Berlin on the eve of World War II.  Enjoy!
