âI absolutely lovedInvisible GirlâLisa Jewell has a way of combining furiously twisty, utterly gripping plots with wonderfully rich characterizationâshe has such compassion for her characters, and we feel we know them utterly⊠A triumph!â âLucy Foley, New York Times bestselling author
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Then She Was Gone returns with an intricate thriller about a young womanâs disappearance and a group of strangers whose lives intersect in its wake.
Owen Pickâs life is falling apart. In his thirties and living in his auntâs spare bedroom, he has just been suspended from his job as a teacher after accusations of sexual misconductâaccusations he strongly denies. Searching for professional advice online, he is inadvertently sucked into the dark world of incel forums, where he meets a charismatic and mysterious figure.
Across the street from Owen lives the Fours family, headed by mom Cate, a physiotherapist, and dad Roan, a child psychologist. But the Fours family have a bad feeling about their neighbor Owen. Heâs a bit creepy and their teenaged daughter swears he followed her home from the train station one night.
Meanwhile, young Saffyre Maddox spent three years as a patient of Roan Fours. Feeling abandoned when their therapy ends, she searches for other ways to maintain her connection with him, following him in the shadows and learning more than she wanted to know about Roan and his family. Then, on Valentineâs night, Saffyre disappearsâand the last person to see her alive is Owen Pick.
With evocative, vivid, and unputdownable prose and plenty of disturbing twists and turns, Jewellâs latest thriller is another âhaunting, atmospheric, stay-up-way-too-late readâ (Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author).
