Enter the GoodReads giveaway for Moonlight Murder by Uzma Jalaluddin.

But when a young man named Mateen is found dead in the Golden Crescent neighborhood, and Kausar learns he was close to her granddaughter, Maleeha, she can’t help but get involved.
Maleeha’s grief pushes Kausar to search for answers, but so does the unsettling similarity between Mateen’s death and the loss of her own teenage son, Ali, nearly two decades earlier. Knowing how deeply the absence of closure can wound a parent, Kausar becomes determined to help Mateen’s family find the truth, and in doing so, begins to realize she may finally be ready to seek that same peace for herself.
Enter the GoodReads giveaway for A Slash of Emerald by Patrice McDonough. London, 1867: In polite society, young women may dabble in painting, but pursuing art as a true profession is another matter entirely. Dr. Julia Lewis, well acquainted with the dismissiveness faced by women in unconventional roles, isn’t shocked when Scotland Yard brushes off her friend Mary Allingham’s report of a break‑in at her studio. Mary is only one of several “lady painters” being targeted by vandals.
At the same time, artist models, women already treated as expendable, are disappearing. Inspector Richard Tennant takes these incidents seriously, believing they may be connected to the anonymous, venomous letters sent to other members of the Allingham family. For Julia, the situation grows even more tangled thanks to Tennant’s past relationship with Mary’s sister‑in‑law, Louisa, and her own unexpected response to that complicated history.
Enter the GoodReads giveaway for The Pillagers' Guide to Arctic Pianos by Kendra Langford Shaw. Deep in the remote reaches of the Arctic Territory, the Spahr family makes its home on a secluded fjord, reachable only by kayak or float plane, surrounded by a landscape that is transforming as glaciers recede and the sea creeps higher. They live in Jubilation House, a fitting name for a clan defined by wild spirits and generous hearts, descended from the original homesteaders who once attempted, against all logic, to tame the Glacial Front. Their off‑grid life in a refurbished fisherman’s shack is sustained by selling pickled octopus and sea-grown goods, but each passing day makes survival feel more uncertain.
Everything changes when a neighbor hauls up a centuries-old piano, a relic from the early homesteading era, when settlers were required to drag a six-hundred‑pound instrument across the ice as a symbol of cultured society; most never made it. This exquisitely carved piano, perfectly preserved in the Arctic depths, suddenly becomes a priceless collector’s item. The discovery ignites a frenzy across the territory: piano hunting. The Spahrs dive headfirst into the craze, hopeful for a financial lifeline, but soon realize that the pursuit of salvation comes at a steep cost.

Pressure is building in every corner of her life. The clinic where she works, once a facility for the criminally insane, has been renovated, yet she finds herself increasingly unsettled within its walls. And close to home, a break-in at a vacant house nearby only adds to her growing sense of unease.
