Thriller | Suspense
An award-winning, internationally bestselling author
makes her American debut with this taut, riveting
domestic drama with the compulsive intensity of The Good
Girl, The Pocket Wife, and The Stranger, about a long-
lost brother convicted of a horrifying crime and a
sister’s fight to clear his name. A single mother and lawyer, Iris has a colorful caseload,
a young son with behavior issues, and a judgmental
mother. She also has a brother—shocking news she uncovers by
accident. Why did her mother lie to her for her entire
life? Why did she hide the existence of Ray Boelens from
her? Curious about this sibling she has never known, Iris
begins to search for long-buried truths. What she
discovers surprises—and horrifies—her. Her older brother
is autistic—and in prison for brutally murdering his
neighbor and her daughter. Visiting Ray, she meets a man who looks heartbreakingly
like her own son. A man who is devoted to his tropical
fish and who loves baking bread. A man whose naiveté
unnerves her. There is no question that Ray is odd and
obsessive, unable to communicate like the rest of us. But
is he really a killer? Told in the alternative voices of Ray and Iris, Girl in
the Dark is a compulsive, page-turning thriller about
lies, murder, and the tenacity of a family determined to
stay together even as they are pulled apart at the most
vulnerable seams.
