use by unknown travelers, it was intended to protect the family from unsavory
guests. Nearly 150 years ago, an inexplicable murder took place in the locked
stranger room of the Lydell house. The murderer was
never caught. But when a new, identical murder is committed in the same room,
not even sheriff Ike Schwartz and FBI agent Karl Hedrick can explain it. Why
would history repeat itself? What could explain these identical murders? Could

Wild roses
Caletti, Deb.
Seventeen-year-old Cassie Morgan has a secret: She's living with a time bomb
(a.k.a. her stepfather, Dino Cavalli). To the public,
Dino is a world- renowned violinist and composer. To Cassie, he's an erratic,
self-centered bully. Dino has always been difficult, but as he prepares for his
comeback concert, something in him begins to shift. He seems more high-strung
than ever, set of by any little thing. He stops sleeping, starts chain-smoking.
And he grows increasingly paranoid, saying things that Cassie is desperate to
make sense of, but can't. So she does what she thinks she must: She tries to
hide his behavior from the outside world. Before, she was angry. Now, she is afraid.
Enter Ian Waters: a brilliant young violinist, and Dino's first-ever student.
The minute Cassie lays eyes on Ian she knows she's doomed. She tries everything
to keep away from him, but is drawn to him in a way she's never felt before. It
should be easy. It should be beautiful. It is not. Cassie thought she
understood that love could bring pain. But this union will have consequences
she could not have imagined. As the novel crashes through two irreparable
events and speeds toward its powerful end, one thing becomes clear: In a world
of insanity, nothing is sacred. Not talent, not spirit, not love.
