February 18th, 2026
Jane Bow draws on a life shaped by political borders and cultural crossings in The Angels’ Share (Monkfish Book, $35.49), a romance-thriller set between Canada and Crete. A thirty-nine-year-old Dion leaves her government job to help save her family’s winery from a Russian oligarch, only to be drawn into a high-stakes plan involving a two-million-dollar bottle of cognac. The novel examines middle-age sexuality, intergenerational alliances and questions of morality against a backdrop of climate-conscious winemaking and international intrigue. Bow grew up in Canada, the US, Spain, England and Czechia, these experiences inform her fiction and nonfiction, which often explore historical forces and their impact on contemporary life and relationships. 978196629330
