Accidental Journey
Richard Lentz has written a novel abounding with life’s complications. At once a probing family saga and the story of a man’s recovery from a traumatic brain injury, Accidental Journey is the richest sort of book. It immerses you in the injury, then pulls you out on the other side. You’ll feel as if you’ve gone through the recovery yourself, and, standing at the crossroads you find on the light end of the tunnel, you’ll be as resolute as these finely drawn characters. You’ll also be wiser. And fuller of heart.

Poised
In 1990s Kentucky, naïve but spirited doctor Shelly Riley endures a grueling two-year cancer-surgery fellowship. Battling chauvinist mentors and punishing training, she fights for her patients’ lives while struggling to save herself—because without her all-male supervisors’ approval, her career ends before it begins. Funny, tender, and unflinching, Poised offers an inside look at hospitals and operating rooms, featuring a quirky, lovable scientist who refuses to be dismissed.
