Waiting on Wednesday #113

 
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine and is where we can talk about books we are looking forward to being released.
 
Without You
 
Summary:
 
1984 - Suffolk, England.
When 17-year-old Eva goes missing at sea, everyone presumes that she drowned. Her parents' relationship is falling apart, undermined by guilt and grief. But her younger sister, Faith, refuses to consider a life without Eva; she's determined to find her sister and bring her home alive.
Close to the shore looms the shape of an island -- out of bounds, mysterious, and dotted with windowless concrete huts. What nobody knows is that inside one of the huts Eva is being held captive. That she is fighting to survive -- and return home...

Length: 384 pages (Paperback)
Expected Publication Date: July 17th 2014 by Piatkus
 
Why I'm Waiting:
 
I love a good thriller/mystery that's set in the UK and this one has a really dark premise and I'm interested because it takes place in the '80s which you don't see many current authors writing about.
 
 
Virtue Falls
 
Summary:
 
Twenty-two years ago, the beautiful Misty Banner was brutally murdered in her home in Virtue Falls, Washington.  Her daughter Elizabeth, four years old at the time of the murder, has lived her entire life believing that her father committed the crime. Now, decades, Elizabeth is back in Virtue Falls and hoping to find out the reasons behind the murder.  What she never expects to learn, though, is that her father was innocent all along.  In fact, the real killer is still out there.  And Misty was not his only victim...

Length: 448 pages (Hardcover)
Expected Publication Date: September 9th 2014 by St. Martin's Press
 
Why I'm Waiting:
 
I'm a big fan of Christina Dodd's Darkness Chosen series which is one of her paranormal shifter series and think it's great so I'm excited to see how this new mystery series will turn out.
 
 
What are you waiting on?

  7. Both sounds like they will be absolutely tragic. I think the first one is my favourite from the two though, because it's always so interesting to see how families respond to tragedy! Thanks for sharing this one :)
