Thriller
A gripping novel with the pace of a thriller but the nuanced
characterization and deep empathy of some of the literary
canon’s most beloved novels, Remember Me Like This
introduces Bret Anthony Johnston as one of the most gifted
storytellers writing today. With his sophisticated and
emotionally taut plot and his shimmering prose, Johnston
reveals that only in caring for one another can we save
ourselves. Four years have passed since
Justin Campbell’s disappearance, a tragedy that rocked the
small town of Southport, Texas. Did he run away? Was he
kidnapped? Did he drown in the bay? As the Campbells search
for answers, they struggle to hold what’s left of their
family together. Then, one afternoon, the
impossible happens. The police call to report that Justin
has been found only miles away, in the neighboring town,
and, most important, he appears to be fine. Though the
reunion is a miracle, Justin’s homecoming exposes the deep
rifts that have diminished his family, the wounds they all
carry that may never fully heal. Trying to return to normal,
his parents do their best to ease Justin back into his old
life. But as thick summer heat takes hold, violent storms
churn in the Gulf and in the Campbells’ hearts. When a
reversal of fortune lays bare the family’s greatest
fears—and offers perhaps the only hope for recovery—each of
them must fight to keep the ties that bind them from
permanently tearing apart.
