FROM THE NYT BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BEFORE I FALL

When true-crime writer Rachel Vale and her daughter, Lucy, move into the abandoned Faraday House at the end of Lily Lane, they already know its tragic history... That's why they came. Rachel hopes that untangling the muddled case of the Faradays might help her solve another puzzle: her daughter.

But the small Midwestern town of Granger remembers the Faradays, and the residents do not take well to strangers pulling apart their mysteries. They will do whatever it takes to protect their own.

As Rachel ignores the threatening notes on the doorstep and her daughter's increasingly erratic behaviour, she unwinds a case of old money, historic rivalries and online abuse. But soon it becomes clear that she might be investigating the wrong story after all...
