В лесной глуши есть хижина, там живут две девушки. В их хижине нет электричества и почти не осталось еды. Однако они преданно ждут Маму и не рискуют выходить из леса в опасный внешний мир. Ждут уже шестьдесят три дня. А где-то далеко, в особняке у края леса, Николетта перебирает в комоде вещи своего мужа Бранта и случайно находит фотографию. Брант давно ведет себя странно, снимает тайно деньги со счетов и скрывает свои телефонные звонки. Но именно это фото заставляет Николетту впервые испугаться.

Мередит только что вышла замуж за Эндрю Прайса, богатого разведенного бизнесмена в два раза старше ее. Все уверены, что это брак по расчету, но Мередит утверждает, что без ума от мужа, и даже ссорится из-за этого с сестрой. Когда Мередит внезапно пропадает, ее сестра Грир принимает участие в поисках. Чем больше она узнает людей, окружавших Мередит в последнее время, тем яснее понимает — разобраться, что случилось с сестрой, будет очень непросто, а там, где хранится ответ, очень и очень темно.

After barely surviving a brutal attack, Brienne Dougray rarely leaves her house. Suffering from debilitating headaches and memory loss, she can rely only on her compassionate new tenant, Dr. Niall Emberlin, a welcome distraction from the discomfiting bubble that has become her existence.

But Brienne’s growing confidence in her new routine is shaken when she stumbles across unsettling evidence that someone else is living as…her. Same name. Same car. Same hair. Same clothes. She’s even friended her family on social media. To find out why, Brienne must leave the safety of her home to hunt a familiar stranger.

What she discovers is more disturbing than she could have ever imagined. With her fragile mind close to shattering, Brienne is prepared to do anything to reclaim her life. If it’s even hers to reclaim.

She’s my roommate.

I know how she takes her tea, how she organizes her closet.

I know when she goes to bed each night, what she eats for breakfast, the passcode on her phone.

I know she calls her mother on Mondays, takes barre on Thursdays, and meets her friends for drinks on Fridays.

But more important than any of that … I know what she did.

Newlywed Jade Westmore has finally found her forever in husband Wells, a charming, successful, and recently divorced architect—only there’s one caveat. Behind the gates of their elysian estate, hidden from street view in the caretaker’s cottage … lives Wells’ first wife, Sylvie.

Three years ago, the original Mrs. Westmore suffered an unfortunate accident—and hasn’t uttered a sound since. Not a physician, psychologist, or world-renowned specialist has been able to elicit so much as a word from the silent woman … until now.

On an ordinary Tuesday while Wells was away—despite instructions to never disturb the fragile woman—Jade visited her isolated predecessor bearing a peace a bouquet of white lilies. Only she wasn’t expecting Sylvie to have something for her as a slip of torn notebook paper with a single word scrawled in shaky black ink.

That word? Run.

A return from the past knocks a family dangerously off-balance in a novel of spiraling suspense by Washington Post and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Minka Kent. Merritt Coletto and her husband, Luca, have the life they dreamed a coastal home, a promising future, and a growing family. That dream ends with a late-night knock on the door. Weak, broken, and emaciated, it’s Luca’s first wife, Lydia. Missing for ten years, presumed dead, and very much alive, she has quite a story. Her kidnapping. A torturous confinement that should’ve ended with her dead. And finally, escape. Racked with guilt over the beautiful life they’ve built, Merritt and Luca agree to help get Lydia back on her feet―it’s the least they can do. But the more enmeshed Lydia becomes in Merritt’s family, the more questions Merritt has. What is it about Lydia that’s especially unnerving? Why hasn’t she gone to the police with her harrowing tale? What does she really want of them? The answers, when they come, are terrifying. Because Lydia isn’t the only one with secrets.
