The day of the dead : a novel / by French, Nicci,author.;
"LOUISE PENNY says the Frieda Klein novels are"fabulous." JOSEPH FINDER says they're "in the rich vein of Kate Atkinson."And TAMI HOAG calls them "truly unique." Now the final book in this extraordinary series is here. And it's an ending you'll never forget ... A decade ago, psychologist Frieda Klein was sucked into the orbit of Dean Reeve -- a killer able to impersonate almost anyone, a man who can disappear without a trace, a psychopath obsessed with Frieda herself. In the years since, Frieda has worked with -- and sometimes against -- the London police in solving their most baffling cases. But now she's in hiding, driven to isolation by Reeve. When a series of murders announces his return, Frieda must emerge from the shadows to confront her nemesis. And it's a showdown she might not survive. Criminology student Lola Hayes has tracked Frieda down with a single-minded pursuit: she wants to delve inside the mind of a woman besieged by darkness. But in following every move Frieda makes, Lola is exposing herself to the same terrors--and the same twisted fixation of a diabolical psychopath. This gripping cat-and-mouse thriller pits one of the most fascinating characters in contemporary fiction against an enemy like none other. Smart, sophisticated, and spellbinding, it's a novel to leave you breathless"--

Privacy : a novel / by Sadowsky, Nina,author.;
"You never know who's watching ... A successful therapist's world is upended when her patients are targeted in a campaign of twisted psychological harassment in this propulsive novel from the author of Convince Me. What is the cost of carrying not only your own pain, but others' too? Dr. Laina Landers is good at her job. She's an accomplished marriage and family therapist, dedicated and compassionate. When she is summoned by the police after one of her patients holds his wife hostage at gunpoint, she is able to intervene and dissuade him. Laina becomes a media sensation. But as her star rises, a target is placed on her back. How much can a person bear before breaking? Not everyone is impressed by Laina's achievements. In fact, someone has it in for her, and is targeting what matters most to her: her patients. One by one, Laina's patients spiral after they receive unsettling gifts that mock their deepest fears and hidden traumas. Laina herself is the target of a home invasion, and when the perpetrators flee, they leave behind the same message that was left for her patients: Watching you. Enlisting Cal Murray, the ambitious and charismatic investigative journalist with whom she has an explosive attraction, Laina must examine her patient's lives and her own in order to identify the culprit. All she knows for sure? It's someone with access to her patient records. Someone who wants to destroy her stellar reputation, her newfound success, and even, perhaps, her life"--

Unrealistic expectations / by Christopher, Andie J.,author.;
"When a relationship therapist gets dumped right before her new dating handbook hits shelves, she fake dates to save face in this spicy romantic comedy. There are a lot of things that can go wrong on an author's publication day, but breaking up with her long-term boyfriend might just be top of Jessica Gallagher's list. She also didn't expect to run into her old crush, Galvin Baker, the very next day. When Jessica goes into crisis mode about the PR nightmare, she proposes the first solution that comes to mind: fake dating. Luckily, Galvin seems game. Galvin Baker is used to being a constant disappointment, which is why he can't -- and won't -- commit to a relationship. Unfortunately for him, his last girlfriend used her vast social media power to make sure everyone knows how much Galvin "underperforms." Fake dating for Jessica's book promotion seems like the perfect cover -- and maybe she can teach him something along the way. Hookups "for science" and some seriously sweet gestures later, Jessica and Galvin's fake dates are feeling more authentic than any previous relationship did. Have they replaced unrealistic expectations with unexpected realness?"--

The brink of being : talking about miscarriage / by Bueno, Julia,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Though approximately one in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage, it remains a rarely talked about, under-researched, and largely misunderstood area of women's health. This profoundly necessary book-the first comprehensive portrait of the psychological, emotional, medical, and cultural aspects of miscarriage-aims to help break that silence. With candor, warmth, and empathy, psychotherapist Julia Bueno blends women's stories (including her own) with research and analysis, exploring the effect of pregnancy loss on women and highlighting the ways in which our society fails to effectively respond to it. The result is a galvanizing, urgent, and moving exploration of a too-often-hidden human experience, and a crucial resource for anyone struggling with--or seeking to better understand--miscarriage."--Back cover.
