Two sassy, probably-in-over-their-heads, bad-ass chicks are hitting the shelves this week. Meet Claire DeWitt and Claudia Silver.

CLAUDIA SILVER TO THE RESCUE: A Novel by Kathy Ebel. In this gutsy debut novel, flawed but unsinkable Claudia Silver cuts a wide comic swath in her misguided attempts to find love and security in 1990s New York City. 

CLAIRE DEWITT AND THE BOHEMIAN HIGHWAY: A Mystery by Sara Gran. When Paul Casablancas, Claire DeWitt’s musician ex-boyfriend, is found dead in his Mission District home, the police are convinced it’s a simple robbery. But Claire knows nothing is ever simple. An addictive new adventure featuring an irresistible heroine.

Happy reading!

Now available in paperback, tattooed, pot-smoking, bad ass detective Claire DeWitt’s first adventure, CLAIRE DEWITT AND THE CITY OF THE DEAD by Sara Gran.  Claire has just arrived in post-Katrina New Orleans, the city she’s avoided since her mentor, Constance Darling, was murdered there. Claire is investigating the disappearance of Vic Willing, a prosecutor known for winning convictions in a homicide-plagued city. Has an angry criminal enacted revenge on Vic? Or did he use the hurricane as a means to disappear?  Hailed as “delicious and addictive” (Salon), and a book “not to be missed” (Christian Science Monitor), Claire DeWitt and the City of the Dead was universally praised as a knockout start to a bracingly original new series. Read an excerpt.
