There are tons of books coming out today, including the following fiction: Drifter’s Wheel by Phillip DePoy. DePoy releases the latest in his Fever Devilin series involving mysteries set in the Georgia Appalalchians. This time, it involves a man who says he is 100 years old…but who looks like he is only 30.

If the Appalalchians don’t weird you out enough, Poppy Adams offers The Sister, a contemporary Gothic novel about two sisters returning to the Victorian home in which they were raised. Chills ensue. Set in England, by the way, and one of the characters is a lepidopterologist — an entomologist who specializes in the collection and study of butterflies and moths.

In the Montefeltro Conspiracy, author Marcello Simonetta offers another mystery in which a modern day person finds a clue to a mystery, this time a mystery from the Italian Renaissance involving The Sistine Chapel. And in a bit of nonfiction, Jeremy Mercer’s When The Guillotine Fell offers a history of “France’s River of Blood” — the use of the guillotine between 1791 and 1977, when the last person (convicted killer Hamda Djandoubi) was executed using the device.
