Love Transcends Time and Space!Join us for the launch of The Brightness Between Us by ELIOT SCHREFER! Eliot will be in conversation with ERIK J. BROWN, author of The Only Light Left Burning. In the genre-bending YA sequel toThe Darkness Outside Us, we rejoin Ambrose and Kodiak — thousands of years in the past — as one journeys across Earth to find the other. We also meet Owl and Yarrow, the children of Ambrose and Kodiak, who are attempting to survive on the planet Minerva. Separated by time and space, they all learn that their lives are intimately intertwined. They race to uncover the unexpected connections that might save them all... and perhaps humanity as well. In The Brightness Between Us, seventeen years have gone by since the Coordinated Endeavor crashed on a distant exoplanet. Ambrose and Kodiak are now the devoted parents of two teenage children, Owl and Yarrow, in a hardscrabble frontier home. Life is hard, but their family is close, until they learn that the biggest threat to their survival might come from within. More than thirty thousand years in the past, Ambrose wakes on Earth to find that his mission to save his sister was a ruse. His mother betrayed him, and the truth of her plan — to send twenty clones of him to continue human civilization thousands of light years away — sends Ambrose spiraling. When he discovers that another spacefarer is suffering his same fate, he will have to decide whether to risk crossing a world at war to reach him.

Exposure is a dual-voice cat-and-mouse thriller, told from the points of view of a killer who has created his own deadly religion and the only person who can stop him, an embattled young detective who sees the ghosts of his Native victims.

Places in the signing line are reserved for those who purchase a copy from The King's English. About the book In Gallup, New Mexico, where violent crime is five times the national average, a serial killer is operating unchecked, his targets indigent Native people whose murders are easily disguised as death by exposure on the frigid winter streets. He slips unnoticed through town, hidden in plain sight by his unassuming nature, while the voices in his head guide him toward a terrifying vision of glory. As the Gallup detectives struggle to put the pieces together, they consider calling in a controversial specialist to help. Rita Todacheene, Albuquerque PD forensic photographer, is at a crisis point in her career. Her colleagues are watching her with suspicion after the recent revelation that she can see the ghosts of murder victims. Her unmanageable caseload is further complicated by the fact that half the department has blacklisted her for ratting out a corrupt fellow cop. And back home in Tohatchi on the Navajo reservation, Rita’s grandma is getting older. Maybe it’s time for her to leave policework behind entirely—if only the ghosts will let her . . .
