Mystery | Suspense
Readers of Kate Atkinson will delight in this suspenseful
debut novel about a woman haunted by nightmares and her
grandmother's role in a doomed love triangle almost seventy
years before. What if the past is never buried? Death, accidental and early, has always been Abby Walters's
preoccupation. Now thirty-three and eager to settle down
with her commitment-shy boyfriend, a recurring dream from
her past returns: a paralyzing nightmare of being buried
alive, the taste of dirt in her mouth cloying and real. But
this time the dream reveals a name from her family's past.
Looking for answers, Abby returns home to small-town
Minnesota for the first time in fourteen years, where she
reconnects with her high school crush, now a police
detective on the trail of a violent criminal. When Abby
tries on her grandmother's mesmerizing diamond ring, a ring
she always dreamed would be hers, she discovers a cryptic
note long hidden beneath the box's velvet lining. What
secret was her grandmother hiding? And could this be the key
to what's haunting Abby? As she begins to uncover the traces
of a love triangle gone shockingly wrong nearly seventy
years before, we, too, see that the layers of our lives may
echo a past we’ve never known. With mesmerizing twists and a
long-buried secret that may finally rise to light, You
Were Here weaves together two worlds separated by
decades, asking if the mistakes made in past lives can ever
be corrected in the future, and if some souls are meant to
find one another time and time again.
