Summary
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“Other authors are at a ten out of ten, for me, and Lisa is a solid hundred.” —Gillian McAllister, The Sunday Times (London) bestselling author of Wrong Place Wrong Time

The #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jewell weaves a “simply masterful” (Samantha Downing, internationally bestselling author) thriller about twisted marriages, fractured families, and deadly obsessions in this stand-alone sequel to The Family Upstairs.

Early one morning on the shore of the Thames, DCI Samuel Owusu is called to the scene of a gruesome discovery. When Owusu sends the evidence for examination, he learns the bones are connected to a cold case that left three people dead on the kitchen floor in a Chelsea mansion thirty years ago.

Rachel Rimmer has also received a shock—her husband, Michael, has been found dead in the cellar of his house in France. All signs point to an intruder, and the French police need her to come urgently to answer questions about Michael and his past that she very much doesn’t want to answer.

After fleeing London thirty years ago in the wake of a horrific tragedy, Lucy Lamb is finally coming home. While she settles in with her children and is just about to purchase their first house, her brother takes off to find the boy from their shared past whose memory haunts their present.

As they all race to discover answers to these convoluted mysteries, they will come to find that they’re connected in ways they could have never imagined.

In this masterful standalone sequel to her haunting New York Times bestseller The Family Upstairs, “Lisa Jewell is a superb writer at the top of her game” (Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author) with another jaw-dropping, intricate, and affecting novel about the lengths we will go to protect the ones we love and uncover the truth.

Great second book, not nearly as dark as the first but there where twists and satisfying conclusions overall. I wasn't a fan of the ending and I wish we would have gotten to know more about Fin and his side/feelings.

Narraration was “brilliant!” as the Brits say. Story was intricate and intriguing. The ending was not as dark as I had expected or hoped for but it was satisfying. 3rd Lisa Jewell novel and I think she’s great.

This, along with „The Family Upstairs“, were well worth every second of listening, as have been all of Jewell‘s mysteries so far.

I don't know what I missed but the Rachel/Michael story never tied in too well with the rest of it. I didn't know this was the second book, maybe that's it

I loved the narrators, but was unable to change my rating on the story. I thought the story was just OK. I wasn’t dying to get back to it after a break.
