Rogers The date is March 31, 1914. Flushed with the success of a great hunt, the SS Southern Cross is heading back to St. John’s, loaded to the gunwales with seal pelts. Somewhere off Newfoundland’s southeast coast, the ship founders, leaving no clue as to her fate or that of her 173 crew members. The ship simply vanishes, as if whisked off the face of the Earth, the worst disaster ever to befall the sealing industry. The Mystery of the SS Southern Cross is a novel that engages the human story behind this long-standing mystery. It interweaves the crankiness of an old ship, vicious weather, and the passions of men caught up in the frenzies of the time. • John Lundrigan, a young sealer with special gifts, struggles against the weight of his oppressive father. He escapes to join the crew of the Southern Cross, where, despite his small stature, he establishes himself as a top hand. • George Clarke is the burly captain of the Southern Cross. Returning from the hunt he decides to push forward into the teeth of a growing storm. • Walter Baine Grieve, merchant and member of the St. John’s elite, manages a fleet of decrepit, old wooden sealing ships. He delegates responsibility for outfitting the ’Cross to a junior assistant. This young man betrays Grieve’s trust, helping to set the stage for the disaster. This fictionalized account offers insight into the mys- terious loss that has lingered unresolved for a century. So too do the vibrant times of pre-war Newfoundland come to life — humour, passion, and songs breathe vitality into this relatively untold tale. In addition to being a rousing sea story, this novel honours the memory of the gallant crew and the lives they were forced to live TIM B. ROGERS first encountered the Southern Cross when he heard Omar Blondahl sing a ballad about the tragedy. That was in Montréal, 1961. When he had a chance to do some research as part of a sabbatical fellowship at Memorial University of Newfoundland in 1979, he began to chase down details of this story that had captured his imagination. Over the years, the untold aspects of this great tale festered in his unconscious, finally bursting forth when he was encouraged to “go for it” and write it as a novel.

Take Carrie, for example. Getting over her mother’s death from ovarian cancer takes the form of ramp- ing up passive-aggressive office warfare, continuing her campaign to show her ex-husband she’s over him (further increasing the distance between herself and her teenage daughter, natch), ridding herself of her mother’s overweight cat Poncho, and consuming heroic quantities of red wine, spiked coffee and cof- fin nails. Nobody’s perfect. Situated at the midpoint between the booze- soaked mayhem of Absolutely Fabulous and the mid- dle-aged ennui of Anakana Schofield’s Malarky, Things You’ve Inherited From Your Mother is a riotous assemblage of found objects, Choose Your Own Adventure-style in jokes and useful facts about mice. In her startlingly funny first novel, Hollie Adams takes the conventional wisdom about likeable liter- ary heroines and shoves it down an elevator shaft. HOLLIE ADAMS was born in Windsor, Ontario and now lives in Calgary, where she is pur- suing her Ph.D. in English. She has been published in McSweeney’s Internet Tendency, Filling Station and The Windsor Review. Things You’ve Inherited From Your Mother is her first novel. NeWest • Spring 2015 • All rights available 5.5 x 8.5 • 200 pages 2 FICTION The Jonathan Westlake War of 1812 Series Brock’s Assassin Tom Taylor Award winning author, Tom Taylor, takes the reader back the War of 1812 when the American Army crossed the Niagara River and invaded Upper Canada. British secret agent Lieutenant Jonathan Westlake has orders to capture the notorious traitor Joseph Willcocks. But the turncoat has deadly plans of his own that will turn the tables on the unsuspecting lieutenant. The ruthless burning of Newark [present day Niagara-on-the-Lake] and results in the flight of the homeless through a winter blizzard and leads Westlake on urgent quest to find and kill Willcocks before more villages are destroyed. From the opulence of Dolley Madison’s White House, to the log cabins of Upper Canada, Westlake’s prey remains elusive. Badly injured, the lieutenant meets an American woman who intimately nurses him back to health. Dover Mills and St. David’s are put to the torch until finally orders are given to the British navy that will bring the flames of destruction, and young Westlake, to the doors of Washington itself. There he will face a question: How does one stay loyal when a friend betrays his very own principles? Praise for Brock’s Agent, the first in the series “…a propulsive historical novel…this ripping yarn.” —The Globe and Mail “Taylor spins a well-rounded and riveting tale of war, love of country, and friendship…” — Historical Novels Review Praise for Brock’s Railroad Winner of the IPPY Gold Medal for Wartime Fiction “Taylor paints an unforgettable picture of the War of 1812 in all its glory. With an appealing hero, Jona- than Westlake, and a dynamic legend, Isaac Brock, this is rip-roaring story-telling at its best.” — Jill Downie, award-winning historical fiction novelist, and author of the Moretti/Falla mystery series Praise for Brock’s Traitor Winner of the Ippy Bronze Medal for Fiction “Taylor deftly weaves complicated threads into a compelling story of honor populated with characters as complex as real people… The intensity of Brock’s Traitor captures readers from the start and never lets go until the last page is turned. ” — Historical Novel Society TOM TAYLOR is a marketing and sales entrepreneur with a passion for history. Brock’s Assassin is his fourth novel. Dean and Hancock UK rights to Brock’s Agent sold to Sandstone, all others available 3 After Alice Karen Hofmann FICTION Having escaped the place in her youth, retired professor Sidonie von Täler returns to her ancestral Okanagan val- ley orchards still very much in the shadow of her deceased older sister Alice. As she sifts through the detritus of her family history, Sidonie is haunted by memories of trauma and triumph in equal measure, and must reconcile past and present while reconnecting with the people she left behind. Karen Hofmann’s debut novel blends a poetic sensibil- ity with issues of land stewardship, social stratification and colonialism. Her eye for period detail and characterization is reminiscent of Margaret Atwood’s The Blind Assassin or Margaret Laurence’s The Stone Angel, while her lyrical reali- zation of bygone B.C. pastoralia recalls the work of George Bowering. “After Alice is a poignant exploration of the mysterious under- world of memory and the capricious expansion and contraction of time.

Recognizing this, the in less time. Newfoundland government began to look for ways to diversify the economy. The second problem was the decrease in the cod biomass off Newfoundland and Labrador.
