Your home still isn’t the safe place it should be, in Shari Lapena’s pulse-pounding new thriller.
*****
You come home after a long day at work, ready for dinner with your wife.
But she's not there. And it looks like she left in a blind panic. Her mobile phone and her bag are still in the house.
You fear the worst. You call the police.
And they tell you that your wife's been in an accident. She lost control of her car as she sped through a street on the worst side of town. But why would she go there? Was she running towards something? Away from something?
The police think she was up to no good.
You refuse to believe it.
Then you start to wonder. You've been married for three years and you thought you knew her better than anyone on earth.
But maybe you don't.
