Megan Walsh is running for her life, but only so that she can end it as she chooses and not at the hands of 'them.' She escaped her children's home after being raped by one of her care workers, only to be found by Jo, the one adult she once dared to trust. Jo learns that Meg is the victim of a Child Sexual Exploitation gang whose tentacles reach far and wide within the police force, social care and all the way to Parliament. In a gripping race against time, Meg fights off terrifying flashbacks while attempting to identify her attackers before they can find her and silence her forever. Meg suffers the severe mental and physical repercussions of her abuse whilst struggling to trust Jo and her husband. Then, when their children come home from university at Christmas, Meg has to deal with an added layer of chaos, surprising hilarity, mood-lifting laugh-out-loud moments, and something she has never known, a family. Paradigm is a fast-paced, character-driven, edge-of-your-seat story that has the reader guessing until the very end. Trigger warning: The book contains one detailed self-harm scene, along with recounts of sexual assault and flashbacks.

From the author of The Tribes of Palos Verdes, a compelling new novel about a couple's getaway to a Mexican paradise that goes horribly wrong. Joy Nicholson's second novel, The Road to Esmeralda, is a dark, seductive story about Americans abroad. Fed up with their L.A. lives, Nick and Sarah decide to head south to Mexico. They are looking for something: love, self-fulfillment, inspiration, or even just peace of mind. However, as the roads get windier and the jungle thicker, this naïve pair realizes that all of the trappings of society-greed, drugs, violence and jealousy-exist even in the remotest of places. Even tiny Esmeralda has a secret agenda . . . While her prose remains hearfelt and spare, Nicholson, in The Road to Esmeralda, also reveals a political edge. In exploring the prejudices of a small Mexican town, she weaves a harrowing and tragic story of love, devastation, and what it means to be a young, intelligent American in a very angry world.
