“Waiting on” Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. This week I am excited about so many new releases over the next few weeks but specifically for A Madness So Discreet by Mindy McGinnis!

This books sounds like a wonderful read for October! I love the concept and the blurb (you can read it below). I have never read anything by Minday McGinnis but I am excited to make that statement untrue. What first caught my eye was the cover. It is quite intriguing. After reading the synopsis, I am excited to get my hands on this story! A Madness So Discrete is set to release on October 6, 2015 and you can pre-order your copy today on Amazon!

Mindy McGinnis, the acclaimed author of Not a Drop to Drink and In a Handful of Dust, combines murder, madness, and mystery in a beautifully twisted gothic historical thriller perfect for fans of novels such as Asylum and The Diviners as well as television’s True Detective and American Horror Story.

Grace Mae is already familiar with madness when family secrets and the bulge in her belly send her to an insane asylum—but it is in the darkness that she finds a new lease on life. When a visiting doctor interested in criminal psychology recognizes Grace’s brilliant mind beneath her rage, he recruits her as his assistant. Continuing to operate under the cloak of madness at crime scenes allows her to gather clues from bystanders who believe her less than human. Now comfortable in an ethical asylum, Grace finds friends—and hope. But gruesome nights bring Grace and the doctor into the circle of a killer who will bring her shaky sanity and the demons in her past dangerously close to the surface.
