The latest thriller from the internationally bestselling
author of The Lake of Dead Languages and The Other
Mother, a story of mistaken identities and missed
chances, forgiveness, and vengeance.
ALICE gets off a
bus in the middle of a snowstorm in Delphi, NY. She is
fleeing an abusive relationship and desperate to
protect...
OREN, ten years old, a major Star Wars fan
and wise beyond his years. Though Alice is wary, Oren bonds
nearly instantly with...
MATTIE, a social worker in
her fifties who lives in an enormous run-down house in the
middle of the woods. Mattie lives alone and is always
available, and so she is the person the hotline always calls
when they need a late-night pickup. And although according
to protocol Mattie should take Alice and Oren to a local
shelter, instead she brings them home for the night. She has
plenty of room, she says. What she doesn't say is that Oren
reminds her of her little brother, who died thirty years ago
at the age of ten.
But Mattie isn't the only one
withholding elements of the truth. Alice is keeping her own
secrets. And as the snowstorm worsens around them, each
woman's past will prove itself unburied, stirring up
threats both within and without.
