Lauren Shippen's The Infinite Noise is a stunning, original debut novel based on her wildly popular and award-winning podcast The Bright Sessions.
Now available in the trade paperback: Blueprint, a Bright Sessions original story featuring Caleb and Adam
Caleb Michaels is a sixteen-year-old champion running back. Other than that his life is pretty normal. But when Caleb starts experiencing mood swings that are out of the ordinary for even a teenager, his life moves beyond "typical." Caleb is an Atypical, an individual with enhanced abilities. Which sounds pretty cool except Caleb's ability is extreme empathy--he feels the emotions of everyone around him. Being an empath in high school would be hard enough, but Caleb's life becomes even more complicated when he keeps getting pulled into the emotional orbit of one of his classmates, Adam. Adam's feelings are big and all-consuming, but they fit together with Caleb's feelings in a way that he can't quite understand. Caleb's therapist, Dr. Bright, encourages Caleb to explore this connection by befriending Adam. As he and Adam grow closer, Caleb learns more about his ability, himself, his therapist--who seems to know a lot more than she lets on--and just how dangerous being an Atypical can be. "What if the X-Men, instead of becoming superheroes, decided to spend some time in therapy?" (Vox on The Bright Sessions)

In April 1778, three years into what would come to be known as the Revolutionary War, Margaret (Peggy) Shippen met Major General Benedict Arnold of the Continental Army. He was thirty-six, arguably the most revered field commander in the country, the hero of Ticonderoga, Valcour Island, and Saratoga. She was eighteen, the highly-educated daughter of a leading Philadelphia family, a renowned beauty, and a British loyalist. Against the young country's divide of those for and against independence and those caught in between, The Colour of the Times is the story of Peggy Shippen: scared and angered by the rebellion that has estranged family and friends and bred a new, radical government in Pennsylvania; her meeting and marriage to the brilliant but embattled Benedict Arnold; and their stunning path to West Point and treason. It is the story of the capital, Philadelphia, as Tories and patriots struggle under both British and American rule. It is also the story of the armies and their leaders, George Washington and Sir Henry Clinton, all relying on Arnold. And, finally, it is the story of lesser knowns, like Peggy's closest sister, Elizabeth, and her fiancE, a British prisoner of war; David and Rebecca Franks of the Levy-Franks financial empire, facing ruin from the conflict; John AndrE, Adjutant General of the British Army, desperate for a chance at glory; and Judge Edward Shippen, a father trying to explain a time "as much civil war as rebellion." Set in Philadelphia, Valley Forge, British-held Manhattan, and the Highlands of New York, this gripping historical account moves from Peggy Shippen's days being entertained by occupying British troops to the greatest betrayal in America's history.
