The Last Mandarin by Louise Penny & Mellissa Fung

Some books arrive quietly, then refuse to let you go. This is one of them.

A brand-new hardcover thriller has just found its way onto our shelves, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to make room for it. Nestled in the Mystery, Thriller & Suspense corner—right where the sea air seems to sharpen every twist—this one is built for readers who love a story that keeps them guessing.

Expect the good stuff: spies, politics, and secrets that don’t stay buried. The kind of tension that makes you forget the tea has gone cold beside you. The pages turn a little faster here, we promise.

There’s something wonderfully mysterious about this particular book, and we mean that in more ways than one. Sometimes the best discoveries are the ones you don’t see coming.

Why you’ll want it on your nightstand:

• Fresh off the press—a brand-new release, waiting to be cracked open.
• A sturdy hardcover edition that feels lovely in the hand and looks handsome on the shelf.
• Pure, propulsive suspense—perfect for a rainy afternoon or a long night by the window.

Picture it: the footbridge creaking in the wind, the ocean just steps away, and you tucked into a favorite chair with a thriller that refuses to be put down. That’s the magic we’re after.

Stop by, browse a while, and let this one surprise you. We’d love to help you find your next favorite read—and this might just be it.
