A young girl named Rave kept her secrets hidden deep within a remote area of Washington State. She must never speak about her mother’s miraculous powers to outsiders, or about her father who has a mysterious presence that scares her. Raven spends her days trying to learn how to use her rare talents—and more importantly, how to hide them from others. Each lesson brings a warning of what dangers may lie outside her isolated haven. Despite her mother’s warnings, Raven finds herself longing to experience something more.

“A powerful journey of forgiveness and self-healing awaits you in The Light Through the Leaves, an epic novel by best-selling author of Where the Forest Meets the Stars, that explores the power of forgiveness and self-discovery.”

The Book Guide® Editor

As Ellis and Raven face their powerful longings, they will be pulled together by the forces at play in their lives—nature, love, and family—and their journeys will converge in surprising and hopeful ways.

Fruit Fly (2026)

In his adult debut, Fruit Fly, author Josh Silver (previously known for HappyHead) brings a sharp, unsettling perspective to the contemporary thriller. The novel centers on Mallory Maddox, a once-lauded novelist paralyzed by protracted writer’s block, who resolves her creative deficit by co-opting the life of a young gay man navigating homelessness, addiction, and severe mental distress. What follows is an increasingly volatile descent into the ethics of exploitation and literary ownership. For readers who devoured R.F. Kuang’s Yellowface and found themselves hungry for another lacerating examination of modern cultural appropriation within the publishing ecosystem, Silver’s dark satire delivers with considerable bite.

A century later, a cinematic production unit arrives to dramatize the unsolved enigma—whereupon esoteric carvings materialize, and the customary unraveling ensues. Sager remains a practiced hand at orchestrating high-concept genre mechanics. Readers would do well to steel themselves for the inevitable reversals.
