Siracusa
Summary
An electrifying novel about marriage and deceit from best-selling author Delia Ephron that follows two couples on vacation in Siracusa, a town on the coast of Sicily, where the secrets they have hidden from each other are exposed and relationships are unraveled. New Yorkers Michael, a famous writer, and Lizzie, a journalist, travel to Italy with their friends from Maine - Finn; his wife, Taylor; and their daughter, Snow. "From the beginning," says Taylor, "it was a conspiracy for Lizzie and Finn to be together." In Rashomon style, with alternating points of view, the characters expose and stumble upon lies and infidelities past and present. Snow, 10 years old and precociously drawn into a far more adult drama, becomes the catalyst for catastrophe as the novel explores collusion and betrayal in marriage. With her inimitable psychological astuteness and uncanny understanding of the human heart, Ephron delivers a powerful meditation on marriage, friendship, and the meaning of travel. Set on the sun-drenched coast of the Ionian Sea, Siracusa unfolds with the pacing of a psychological thriller and delivers an unexpected final act that none can see coming.

Now You See Her (Simon & Schuster)
Summary
A talented painter in her early 30s, Samille Sweeney has achieved enviable success: her work sells at an exclusive New York City gallery and her popularity is at an all-time high. Sweeney, as she is called by those close to her, loves her work and is content with her life. Then she begins to experience the dreams - lush, vivid dreams drenched in vibrant hues - which are influencing her artwork. But the true dangers of her visions are about to be revealed where Sweeney least expects it: in her paintings. After a creative frenzy she can barely recall, Sweeney discovers she has rendered a disturbing image of a graphic murder scene. When a real-life murder mirrors her creation, Sweeney is thrust into suspicious light. Now, with every stroke of her brush, she risks incriminating herself with her inexplicable knowledge of a deadly crime. With the breathless excitement that distinguishes all of her blockbusters, Linda Howard grips the imagination and touches the heart as only she can in Now You See Her.
