Can't-Wait Wednesday: The Nightjar by Deborah Hewitt & Cold Storage by David Koepp

 
Can't-Wait is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings that spotlights exciting upcoming releases that we can't wait to be released! This meme is based off of Jill @ Breaking the Spine's Waiting on Wednesday meme.

This week's upcoming book spotlights are: 

The Nightjar
The Nightjar by Deborah Hewitt
Publication: September 3rd, 2019
Tor
Paperback. 480 pages.


"Alice Wyndham has been plagued by visions of birds her whole life...until the mysterious Crowley reveals that Alice is an 'aviarist' capable of seeing nightjars, magical birds that guard human souls. When her best friend is hit by a car, only Alice can find and save her nightjar. 

With Crowley's help, Alice travels to the Rookery, a hidden, magical alternate London to hone her newfound talents. But a faction intent on annihilating magic users will stop at nothing to destroy the new aviarist. And is Crowley really working with her, or against her? Alice must risk everything to save her best friend--and uncover the strange truth about herself."
Uhm, magical birds? And an alternate London? Please sign me up immediately!


and...
Cold Storage
Cold Storage by David Koepp
Publication: September 3rd, 2019
Ecco
Hardcover. 320 pages.


"When Pentagon bioterror operative Roberto Diaz was sent to investigate a suspected biochemical attack, he found something far worse: a highly mutative organism capable of extinction-level destruction. He contained it and buried it in cold storage deep beneath a little-used military repository. 

Now, after decades of festering in a forgotten sub-basement, the specimen has found its way out and is on a lethal feeding frenzy. Only Diaz knows how to stop it. 

He races across the country to help two unwitting security guards—one an ex-con, the other a single mother. Over one harrowing night, the unlikely trio must figure out how to quarantine this horror again. All they have is luck, fearlessness, and a mordant sense of humor. Will that be enough to save all of humanity?"
I love a good thriller featuring horrifying viruses/etc. that can quickly kill everyone. What better to keep you up at night? I have an ARC of this that I'm planning to start soon and cannot wait!

What do you think about these upcoming releases? What are your anticipated upcoming releases?
