For readers who love speculative fiction with real emotional weight, small-town secrets that take their time unraveling, and an ending that pays off every patient page.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Tatterwell and the Borrowed WinterAt nineteen minutes past two, Tess Farrow had nowhere to sleep and a perfect view of a wall.Then the wall became a door.Twelve years old and newly unplaced, Tess is offered only what the county can prove: one night, one address, no promises past tomorrow. The house is Tatterwell - mismatched roofs, a kitchen slate that won't stay blank, children who keep working while the world arrives. It isn't a school, or a sanctuary, or anywhere trying to look magical. It's a place that has learned, over generations, not to give up on things too soon.The door should not be there. The warmth of the nearby town should not be disappearing. And in Tatterwell, Tess learns, winter is something you can borrow - carried, held, and returned, the way everything else in this house is.But someone has stopped returning it.As the cold deepens and old records surface secrets older than Tess's arrival, she has to decide how far to trust a place that has never promised her forever - and whether belonging is something you're given, or something you choose to risk.Tatterwell and the Borrowed Winter is a quiet, atmospheric middle-grade fantasy about placement, permanence, and the particular ache of loving a place you might have to leave. For readers who want their magic to feel lived-in rather than spectacular, and their found families to be built out of chores, arguments, and small kept promises rather than speeches.If you remember to put it back.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A poisoned pastry. A perfect hostess. And a baker who knows her own bread. Charisma Finnegan has finally found her footing in Cypress Bend, Florida - a stall at the Saturday farmers market, a growing reputation, and a sourdough starter named Vincent VanDough who is, frankly, insufferable about it. When the town's most powerful woman invites Charisma to cater the exclusive Sunflower Charity Brunch, it feels like an arrival. Old money. Donor tables. White linen and orchids. The kind of room that decides who belongs in Cypress Bend and who doesn't. Then Eleanor Waverly collapses after dessert. And Charisma's pastries are on the table. Except Eleanor never touched sugar. Her private plate was prepared separately - Charisma's written instructions made that clear. And when Charisma examines the crumb structure of the brioche Eleanor ate, she knows immediately: the texture is wrong. Mixed too fast. Proofed too short. Someone altered that plate after it left Charisma's hands. Now Charisma is navigating a world of charity boards, inheritance disputes, and social gatekeeping - where everyone smiles beautifully and someone in that room committed murder with a sugar-free glaze.
