Fall means shorter days and cooler nights, but why miss staying outside late? Grab your coziest throw (from where it's been stashed all summer) and settle indoors. With three new series starters and one revisited classic, our fall line-up will keep you happy as the temperature drops.

New series! With a taste for whisky and a reporter's insight, Ellie Stone, a modern young woman in 1960s New York City, plays by her own rules while searching for a killer among the scholars at Columbia University. Library Journal says Styx & Stone is an engrossing start to "a fascinatingly complex series...sure to appeal to both fans of academia and Mad Men."

New series! Armed with Buddhist philosophy and wicked knife skills, Bai Jiang, San Francisco's best people finder, is called upon to track down a girl who's gone missing in Chinatown. Thatcher Robinson's debut novel White Ginger is filled with "delicious characters and an intriguing setting," says RT Book Reviews. "An unconventional, very modern take on a mystery... Definitely worth a try!"

New series! Nothing ruins a good vacation like murder. In Deadly Catch retired U.S. marine Mac McClellan heads to the Florida panhandle for some fishing. But when he hooks a decomposed body and finds a bag of rare marijuana on his rental boat, he realizes someone is setting him up to take the fall for murder and drug smuggling. Mac's plans for a more laid-back life must be put on hold while he investigates and works to clear his name.

A Carolyn Hart classic! This November, meet lawyers of different sorts in Death by Surprise.

The Carlisle cousins work in opposite ends of the city: Kenneth in an exclusive seaside community and K.C. in a seedy part of town. When Kenneth is accused of murdering a potential blackmailer, K.C. is determined to prove his innocence, no matter where the trail of blood and deception leads.

Sneak a peak at winter

Coming in January, two beloved characters return! Everyone's favorite new hero, Hugo Marston, uncovers a 200-year-old blood promise and yet another dark side to the City of Light, and the shocking murder of a wounded veteran challenges the investigative skills of the Texan retired police chief Samuel Craddock.
