The choice / by Roberts, Nora,author.;
"The conclusion of the epic trilogy from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Awakening and The Becoming. Talamh is a land of green hills, high mountains, deep forests, and seas, where magicks thrive. But portals allow for passage in and out-and ultimately, each must choose their place, and choose between good and evil, war and peace, life and death ... Breen Siobhan Kelly grew up in the world of Man and was once unaware of her true nature. Now she is in Talamh, trying to heal after a terrible battle and heartbreaking losses. Her grandfather, the dark god Odran, has been defeated in his attempt to rule over Talamh, and over Breen-for now. With the enemy cast out and the portal sealed, this is a time to rest and to prepare. Breen spreads her wings and realizes a power she's never experienced before. It's also a time for celebrations-of her first Christmas in both Talamh and Ireland, of solstice and weddings and births-and daring to find joy again in the wake of sorrow. She rededicates herself to writing her stories, and when his duties as taoiseach permit, she is together with Keegan, who has trained her as a warrior and whom she has grown to love. It's Keegan who's at her side when the enemy's witches, traitorous and power-mad, appear to her in her sleep, practicing black magick, sacrificing the innocent, and plotting a brutal destruction for Breen. And soon, united with him and with all of Talamh, she will seek out those in desperate need of rescue, and confront the darkness with every weapon she has: her sword, her magicks-and her courage ...

The last thing she saw / by Laurin, Nina,author.;
"After a flood destroys the historic center of a rural Quebec town, a child's body is discovered. The remains are decades-old and nearly impossible to identify, yet the whole town knows at once who they belong to. Nine-year-old Michelle Fortier vanished without a trace in 1979, and her fate remained unknown--until now. Stephanie O'Malley grew up in her mother's crumbling trailer listening to stories of Michelle's vanishing-stories she once tried to turn into a podcast without much success. Although Stephanie left Marly fifteen years ago and vowed never to return, she finds herself back with her tempestuous mother Laura, her high school sweetheart Luc, and the entire town in an uproar as it grapples with its long-buried secrets. While Stephanie struggles to separate the truth from wild rumors about witchcraft and town-wide conspiracies, Laura is consumed by the strange feeling that all this has happened before. But as the story takes a turn for the sordid, the bombshell drops: the body might not be Michelle after all"--
