AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
Another thrilling domestic suspense novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next Door

??Lapena is a master of manipulation. With her latest page-turning thriller? she is once again at the top of her game.? ??USA Today

??In this fast-paced, twisted family saga, Shari Lapena keeps you guessing until the very last page...? ??Paula Hawkins
In this family, everyone is keeping secrets??even the dead.

Brecken Hill in upstate New York is an expensive place to live. You have to be rich to have a house there, and Fred and Sheila Merton certainly are rich. But even all their money can't protect them when a killer comes to call. The Mertons are brutally murdered after a fraught Easter dinner with their three adult kids. Who, of course, are devastated.
 
Or are they? They each stand to inherit millions. They were never a happy family, thanks to their vindictive father and neglectful mother, but perhaps one of the siblings is more disturbed than anyone knew. Did someone snap after that dreadful evening? Or did another person appear later that night with the worst of intentions? That must be what happened. After all, if one of the family were capable of something as gruesome as this, you'd know.

wish I could give it 4.5 stars. definitely felt like a slow start for me; once I got closer to halfway through the book, time flew by and I could not put it down. i love the way the author made everyone a possible subject. loved the ending

4.5 stars! On Easter, 3 adult children and spouses, go to their wealthy parents house for dinner. The parents bodies were found murdered in their home by the maid on Tuesday. With inheritance on the line, the kids become prime suspects.
The characters annoyed me because they all lied. It was like putting a puzzle together, trying to figure which piece fits where. Highly recommend especially if you enjoy family drama. ( )

Wow! No one writes about twisted psychotic characters like this author does.
Easter dinner with mom and dad and the 3 adult children and their partners plus the cleaning woman/ nanny.
Dad is a vindictive hateful bastard and mom is a doormat.
By the next morning they are dead.
Who killed them?
Read the book it could be anyone. ( )

Mantiene en vilo de principio a fin.

Una familia, una muerte y todos sospechosos.

Quizás en algún momento algo lento, dando vueltas a lo mismo. Esperaba más giros.

Aún así, lo recomiendo sin dudarlo.

Todos tienen razones para hacerlo.

Me ha tenido enganchada hasta la última página. ( )
