Penitence: An unforgettable story of love, grief, guilt and forgiveness
"'A gripping page-turner and a loving exploration of what it really means to forgive' MARY BETH KEANE, bestselling author of Ask Again, Yes 'Wise and profound' CLAIRE MESSUD, bestselling author of The Emperor's Children Are you more than the worst thing you have ever done, or are some things too terrible to forgive? When teenager Nora Sheehan fatally shoots her brother Nico in their family home one evening, her parents' lives are left shattered. Nico had been diagnosed with a terminal illness – was what Nora did an act of mercy, or something far darker? And what will happen to her now, alone in a juvenile detention centre awaiting trial, unable or unwilling to speak? Out of their depth, Angie and David Sheehan turn to local lawyer Martine Dumont for help. Martine isn't just legal counsel – she's also the mother of Angie's first love Julian, now a high-powered New York defence attorney who returns to their rural Colorado hometown to assist with the case. But Julian's arrival stirs up secrets buried in his and Angie's past – mistakes with far-reaching and damaging consequences. And as the verdict that will decide Nora's fate looms, the two families find themselves confronted with the same heart-wrenching questions: what will they will fight to hold on to, and what must they be prepared to let go? Riveting and poignant, Penitence is an unforgettable story of love and grief, guilt and forgiveness that establishes Kristin Koval as a must-read author for fans of Celeste Ng, Mary Beth Keane, Jodi Picoult and Ann Patchett."

"A woman learns to be the heroine of her own life in this heartfelt novel inspired by Anne of Green Gables by New York Times bestselling author Virginia Kantra. She believed life could follow a plotline-until the story she was living unraveled. Anne Gallagher has always lived by the book. Anne of Green Gables, that is. Growing up on Mackinac Island, she saw herself as her namesake: the same impulsive charm, the same wild imagination, even the same red hair (dyed, but still). She followed in Anne Shirley's fictional footsteps, chasing dreams of teaching and writing, and falling for her very own storybook hero. But when a string of real-life plot twists-a failing romance, a fight with the administration, and the sudden death of her beloved father-pulls her back to the island she once couldn't wait to leave, Anne is forced to face a truth no story ever prepared her for. Sometimes, life doesn't follow a script. Back in the house she grew up in, Anne must confront her past and the people she left behind, including Joe Miller, the boy who once called her "The Pest." It's time to figure out what she wants and rewrite her story to create her own happy ending. Not the book version. The real one."

"Brought to you by Penguin. ‘We shall be forgotten.’ he said. ‘We shall be lost. They will scrub us away like a set of dirty fingerprints on a plastic kettle.’ The crumbling Gothic mansion of Thornwalk, long-term home of the Gilbert family, is being handed over to a chain of luxury ‘historic’ hotels. Millions will be spent in its restoration. But for every ‘improvement’, what will be lost? What value can there possibly be in a threadbare carpet, a tarnished spoon and a thousand empty jam jars? Before the hotel people arrive, with their clipboards and their skips and their bottles of bleach, Maximus, loyal guardian of the Gilberts’ legacy, invites us on a final tour of the once-stately home, where each room holds a secret. From the bolt on the blue room door to the tiny dents in the bars at the nursery window … these are the keys that will unlock the lives of the five fatherless Gilbert children. A frustrated romantic, a stubborn traditionalist, a dreamer, a diva and an explorer: The Infamous Gilberts will be cast adrift on the irresistible tides of the twentieth century, buoyed by love, buffeted by loss, and tangled together in an unputdownable story where the lines between eccentricity and madness, cruelty and love become hilariously, heartbreakingly blurred. 'Completely captivating: I absolutely loved it. A compelling, ingenious, mischievous blend of tragedy, comedy and intrigue' Nina Stibbe © Angela Tomaski 2026 (P) Penguin Audio 2026"

"Perfect for fans of Daisy Jones and the Six and In Five Years—a beautiful, powerful, and transportive new novel about a music executive desperately trying to bring a rock band back from the brink, from bestselling author Ashley Winstead. This is a love story, but not the one you're expecting. When record executive Theo meets the Future Saints, they're bombing at a dive bar in their hometown. Since the tragic death of their manager, the band has been in a downward spiral and Theo has been dispatched to coax a new—and successful—album out of them, or else let them go. Immediately, Theo is struck by Hannah, the group's impetuous lead singer, who's gone off script by debuting a whole new sound, replacing their California pop with gut-wrenching rock. When this new music goes viral, striking an unexpected chord with fans, Theo puts his career on the line to give the Saints one last shot at success with a new tour, new record, and new start. But Hannah's grief has larger consequences for the group, and her increasingly destructive antics become a distraction as she and her sister Ginny—her lifelong partner in crime—undermine Theo at every turn. Hannah isn't ready to move on or prepared for the fame she's been chasing, and the weight of her problems jeopardize the band, her growing closeness with Theo, and, worst of all, her relationship with her sister—all while the world watches closely. The Future Saints's big break is here—if only they can survive it. A novel about sisterhood, friendship, and the ghosts that haunt us, The Future Saints is "a mesmerizing look at grief, love, and the music industry that's so raw and emotional, you'll want to play it on repeat." (Laura Hankin, author of One-Star Romance)."
