Xavier: Edizione Italiana
by Kathi S. BartonCindi Janis era preoccupata. I giornali non parlavano d'altro che degli omicidi di donne dai capelli rossi, troppe per essere solo una coincidenza. Cindi non aveva notizie di sua zia Caroline da tempo, e lei corrispondeva alla descrizione di una delle vittime. Era necessario un breve viaggio in Ohio per identificare e reclamare il corpo, se si trattava davvero di sua zia, e poi avrebbe potuto continuare con la sua vita. Ma in Ohio la aspettava qualcosa che non era nei suoi programmi. Per Xavier Manning era fondamentale dare una mano; qualcuno doveva andare all'aeroporto a prendere la signorina Janis per aiutarla nella brutta faccenda dell'identificazione del corpo. Non si aspettava che la bella donna dai capelli fiammeggianti scesa dall'aereo fosse la sua compagna. Con gli omicidi sempre più vicini alle case dei Manning, Xavier capisce che la sua bellissima compagna è in pericolo, e la pressione per risolvere gli omicidi aumenta a dismisura. Non c'è tempo da perdere, se vuole impedire che Cindi sia la prossima.

Yours for the Taking: A Novel
by Gabrielle KornThe year is 2050. Ava and her girlfriend live in what's left of Brooklyn, and though they love each other, it's hard to find happiness while the effects of climate change rapidly eclipse their world. Soon, it won't be safe outside at all. The only people guaranteed survival are the ones whose applications are accepted to The Inside Project, a series of weather-safe, city-sized structures around the world. Jacqueline Millender is a reclusive billionaire/women’s rights advocate, and thanks to a generous donation, she’s just become the director of the Inside being built on the bones of Manhattan. Her ideas are unorthodox, yet alluring—she's built a whole brand around rethinking the very concept of empowerment. Shelby, a business major from a working-class family, is drawn to Jacqueline’s promises of power and impact. When she lands her dream job as Jacqueline’s personal assistant, she's instantly swept up into the glamourous world of corporatized feminism. Also drawn into Jacqueline's orbit is Olympia, who is finishing up medical school when Jacqueline recruits her to run the health department Inside. The more Olympia learns about the project, though, the more she realizes there's something much larger at play. When Ava is accepted to live Inside and her girlfriend isn’t, she’s forced to go alone. But her heartbreak is quickly replaced with a feeling of belonging: Inside seems like it’s the safe space she’s been searching for… most of the time. Other times she can’t shake the feeling that something is deeply off. As she, Olympia, and Shelby start to notice the cracks in Jacqueline's system, Jacqueline tightens her grip, becoming increasingly unhinged and dangerous in what she is willing to do—and who she is willing to sacrifice—to keep her dream alive. At once a mesmerizing story of queer love, betrayal, and chosen family, and an unflinching indictment of white, corporate feminism, Gabrielle Korn's Yours for the Taking holds a mirror to our own world, in all its beauty and horror.
