'You walk and the harvest moon casts the clearest of shadows. You are nervous. With a moon like that, it is not a night for escaping. It is a night made better for hunting runaway girls.' Himalayas: Unknown Year 'Ten thousand strands of trouble', says Bird's father, watching as Bird's sister braids her hair. On the eve of her 14th year, that trouble finds Bird. Fleeing her home to escape an arranged marriage, she attempts to vanish into a crowd of pilgrims – not knowing that violence is circling, and that it already has its eyes on her.

It's 1984 and Samantha Ryan Blake - "unruly" foster child - sees things: murder, crime...and sometimes...otherworldly "beings". She doesn't have a family. Not since her mother was institutionalized and her father went missing ten years ago in Vietnam. What she does have is a secret. Now she's been made an offer - to receive "special tutoring" by a British couple - on the grounds of a heavily guarded American nuclear reactor testing facility.

Elise loves the farm that is her home; she loves playing with beetles and chameleons in the garden, buying sweets from the village shop and listening to the stories of spirits and charms told by her nanny, Beauty. As a young white girl in 1990s Zimbabwe, her life is idyllic. Her clothes are always clean and ironed, there is always tea in the silver teapot, gin and tonics are served on the veranda, and, in theory at least, black and white live in harmony.

Howard Norman’s The Bird Artist, the first book of his Canadian trilogy, begins in 1911. Its narrator, Fabian Vas, is a bird artist: he draws and paints the birds of Witless Bay, his remote Newfoundland coastal village home. In the first paragraph of his tale, Fabian reveals that he has murdered the village lighthouse keeper, Botho August. Later, he confesses who and what drove him to his crime—a measured, profoundly engrossing story of passion, betrayal, guilt, and redemption between men and women. The Bird Artist is a 1994 National Book Award Finalist for Fiction.

A coming-of-age story...Lane was raised by absurdly strict and conservative parents. Without the slightest awareness of her naivety, she suddenly finds herself cast alone and penniless into the surreal world of the '80s. A time before the modern advances of the technology revolution. Cellphones hadn't been invented. The internet, GPS and social media didn't yet exist. It was common to lose track of one's friends and family for weeks or even months at a time.

They failed to drive her out of the military academy, but one in three women are still leaving West Point. Jan Wishart fights for survival in her second year at the formerly all male citadel, where the women cadets continue to endure body shaming, sexism, and contempt from the higher ups. When one of her friends shows signs of abuse and later commits suicide, Jan's coming of age year gets even more complicated. The culture of hazing and harassment must be addressed...sometimes the best way to call attention to an issue is to leak it the press.
