Description
In this thrilling follow-up to the international bestseller The Inn, past mistakes come back to haunt the friends and residents of The Inn by the Sea.
It's the perfect getaway. But the past will always find you...
Since leaving the Boston Police Department, Bill Robinson has run The Inn by the Sea in Gloucester, Massachusetts. There he offers a safe and supportive home for his long-term guests.
That tranquil life, however, is about to be shattered.
Two murderers are heading to Bill's door.
One needs his help to evade the cops. The other plans to kill again to silence the truth.
Standing in their way are the residents of the Inn. And not everyone will get out alive.
Praise for James Patterson

'No one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades.' Lee Child

'James Patterson is The Boss. End of.' Ian Rankin
'Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried ... there's no stopping his imagination' New York Times Book Review
'Patterson is in a class by himself' Guardian

James is passionate about encouraging children to read. Inspired by his own son who was a reluctant reader, he also writes a range of books for young readers, including the Middle School, I Funny, Treasure Hunters, House of Robots, Confessions, and Maximum Ride series. James has donated millions in grants to independent bookshops and has been the most borrowed author of adult fiction in UK libraries for the past eleven years in a row. He lives in Florida with his wife and son. Candice Fox (Author) Candice Fox is the author of ten internationally bestselling crime novels and the winner of three prestigious Ned Kelly Awards.

Her new solo novel, Devil's Kitchen, will release in March 2024, and her latest collaboration with James Patterson, The Murder Inn, comes out in February 2024. In 2022 Candice's fourth book, Crimson Lake, was adapted into a major ABC TV series, called Troppo, with series two currently in production.
