Behind you : a novel / by Hernandez, Catherine,1977-author.;
"Alma, a Filipina woman, is a film editor working on Infamous, a cheesy true crime series about the twentieth century's most notorious killers. On the surface she seems to live a good life with her wife, Nira, and teenage son, Mateo. But there is so much left unsaid. It's not until the series' last episode, which features the Scarborough Stalker, that Alma remembers coming of age while the serial rapist and killer was attacking women and girls in Scarborough in the late 80s and early 90s. Two storylines unfold. In the past, young Alma watches as an entire city becomes consumed with the manhunt for an elusive, terrifying suspect, while she herself faces jeopardy from closer corners. In the present, adult Alma must come to terms with her own ideas of consent in order to stop her son's dangerous behaviour toward his girlfriend. Weaving back and forth in time, Behind You is a moving story of one girl's resilience as she enters adulthood and a chilling portrayal of the insidiousness of rape culture. It daringly turns the whodunit genre on its head by asking "Who hasn't done it?" As in, who hasn't been complicit in sexual harm?"--Provided by publisher.

The blood gift / by Davenport, N. E.,author.;
"In this stunning conclusion to N. E. Davenport's fast-paced, action-packed sci-fantasy duology, elite warrior Ikenna and her rogue cohort must outrun bounty hunters, their former comrades, and a megalomaniacal demi-god, all in the hopes of saving their friends and enemies from the racist and misogynistic oppression that threatens the continents from all sides. After discovering the depth of betrayal, treachery, and violence perpetrated against her by Mareen's Tribunal Council and exposing her illegal blood-gift to save her Praetorian squad, Ikenna becomes a fugitive with a colossal bounty on her head. Yet, somehow, that's the least of her worries. Her grandfather's longtime allies refuse to offer help, and the Blood Emperor's Warlord is tracking her. She's also struggling to control the enormous power she was granted by the Goddess of Blood Rites ... and come to terms with the promises she made to get such power. Amidst all of this, the Blood Emperor wages a full-scale invasion against Mareen and leaves a trail of decimated cities, war crimes, and untold death in his wake. As the horrors increase, Ikenna and her team realize they must assassinate the Blood Emperor and quickly end the war. But the price to do so is steep and has planet-shattering consequences. The price to do nothing, though, is annihilation. War has erupted. Alliances are fracturing. And Ikenna is torn between her loyalties, her desires for revenge, and the power threatening to consume her. With the world aflame, only one thing is certain: blood will be spilled."--

The mothers : a novel / by Bennett, Brit,author.;
"A dazzling debut novel from an exciting new voice, The Mothers is a surprising story about young love, a big secret in a small community--and the things that ultimately haunt us most. Set within a contemporary black community in Southern California, Brit Bennett's mesmerizing first novel is an emotionally perceptive story about community, love, and ambition. It begins with a secret. "All good secrets have a taste before you tell them, and if we'd taken a moment to swish this one around our mouths, we might have noticed the sourness of an unripe secret, plucked too soon, stolen and passed around before its season." It is the last season of high school life for Nadia Turner, a rebellious, grief-stricken, seventeen-year-old beauty. Mourning her own mother's recent suicide, she takes up with the local pastor's son. Luke Sheppard is twenty-one, a former football star whose injury has reduced him to waiting tables at a diner. They are young; it's not serious. But the pregnancy that results from this teen romance--and the subsequent cover-up--will have an impact that goes far beyond their youth. As Nadia hides her secret from everyone, including Aubrey, her God-fearing best friend, the years move quickly. Soon, Nadia, Luke, and Aubrey are full-fledged adults and still living in debt to the choices they made that one seaside summer, caught in a love triangle they must carefully maneuver, and dogged by the constant, nagging question: What if they had chosen differently? The possibilities of the road not taken are a relentless haunt. In entrancing, lyrical prose, The Mothers asks whether a "what if" can be more powerful than an experience itself. If, as time passes, we must always live in servitude to the decisions of our younger selves, to the communities that have parented us, and to the decisions we make that shape our lives forever"--Provided by publisher.
