Thriller | Suspense
I wake with a start from a bad dream. Anxiety clutches at
my chest. Something’s gone . . . something’s missing . . .
Beth . . . Always Beth . . . When Geniver Loxley lost her daughter at birth eight years
ago, her world stopped… and never fully started again.
Mothers with strollers still make her flinch; her love of
writing has turned into a half-hearted teaching career; and
she and her husband, Art, have slipped into the kind of rut
that seems inescapable. For Art, the solution is simple:
Have another child to replace Beth. For Gen, the thought of
replacing her first child feels cruel, nearly unbearable. A
part of her will never let go of Beth, no matter how much
she needs to move on. But then a stranger shows up on their doorstep, telling Gen
the very thing she’s always desperately longed to hear: that
her daughter was not stillborn, but was taken away as a
healthy infant. That Beth is still out there, somewhere,
waiting to be found. A fissure suddenly opens up in Gen’s
carefully reconstructed life, letting in a flood of
unanswerable questions. How could this possibly be true?
Where is Beth? And why is Art so reluctant to get involved? As Gen delves into the darkest parts of her past, she starts
to realize that finding the answers might open the door to
something even worse, a truth that could steal everything
she holds close. Even her own life. With searing emotional insight, Sophie McKenzie weaves a
breathless thriller that digs in its hooks without mercy and
twists without warning, confirming her place among today’s
most exciting new voices in psychological suspense.
