Silver Nitrate Bok
<p><b>From the <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>The Daughter of Doctor Moreau</i> and <i>Mexican Gothic</i> comes a fabulous meld of Mexican horror movies and Nazi occultism: a dark thriller about a curse that haunts a legendary lost film - and awakens one woman's hidden powers. </b><br/><br/>Montserrat has always been overlooked. She's a talented sound editor, but she's left out of the boys' club running the film industry in '90s Mexico City. And she's all-but-invisible to her best friend Tristan, a charming if faded soap opera star, even though she's been in love with him since childhood.<br/><br/>Then Tristan discovers his new neighbour is the cult horror director Abel Urueta, and the legendary <i>auteur </i>claims he has a way to change their lives - even if his tales of a Nazi occultist imbuing magic into highly volatile silver nitrate stock sounds like sheer fantasy. The magic film was never finished, which is why, Urueta swears, his career vanished overnight. He is cursed.<br/>Now the director wants Montserrat and Tristan to help him shoot the missing scene and lift the curse . . . but Montserrat soon notices a dark presence following her, and Tristan begins seeing the ghost of his ex-girlfriend . . .<br/>As they work together to unravel the mystery of the film and the obscure occultist who once roamed their city, Montserrat and Tristan might find out that sorcerers and magic are not only the stuff of movies . . .</p>

Flight attendant turned <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author T. J. Newman - whose first book <i>Falling </i>was an instant international bestseller and the biggest thriller debut of 2021 - returns for her second book, an edge-of-your-seat thriller about a commercial jetliner that crashes into the ocean, and sinks to the bottom with passengers trapped inside, and the extraordinary rescue operation to save them.<br/><br/><b>Six minutes after takeoff, Flight 1421 crashes into the Pacific Ocean. During the evacuation, an engine explodes and the plane is flooded. Those still alive are forced to close the doors-but it's too late. The plane sinks to the bottom with twelve passengers trapped inside.<br/><br/>More than two hundred feet below the surface, engineer Will Kent and his eleven-year-old daughter Shannon are waist-deep in water and fighting for their lives.<br/><br/>Their only chance at survival is an elite rescue team on the surface led by professional diver Chris Kent - Shannon's mother and Will's soon-to-be ex-wife - who must work together with Will to find a way to save their daughter and rescue the passengers from the sealed airplane, which is now teetering on the edge of an undersea cliff.</b><br/><br/><b>There's not much time.</b><br/><br/><b>With devastating emotional power and heart-stopping suspense, <i>Drowning </i>is an unforgettable thriller about a family's desperate fight to save themselves and the people trapped with them - against impossible odds.</b><br/><br/><b>Praise for Drowning:</b><br/><br/>'Stunning, emotional, and unforgettable. <i>Drowning </i>reads like <i>Apollo 13 </i>underwater' <b>Don Winslow,</b> New York Times bestselling author of <i>City on Fire</i> and <i>The Border</i><br/><br/>'<i>Drowning </i>is <i>The Poseidon Adventure </i>meets <i>The Martian</i>.
