Book Synopsis



THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

"Deftly and engagingly delves into this complicated not-so-cold case." --The New York Times

"Expertly plotted and exquisitely twisted." --Ashley Elston, #1 New York Times bestselling author of First Lie Wins

From the instant New York Times bestselling author of The Last Flight and The Lies I Tell comes a dazzling new thriller.

June, 1975.

The Taylor family shatters in a single night when two teenage siblings are found dead in their own home. The only surviving sibling, Vincent, never shakes the whispers and accusations that he was the one who killed them. Decades later, the legend only grows as his career as a horror writer skyrockets.

Ghostwriter Olivia Dumont has spent her entire professional life hiding the fact that she is the only child of Vincent Taylor. Now on the brink of financial ruin, she's offered a job to ghostwrite her father's last book. What she doesn't know, though, is that this project is another one of his lies. Because it's not another horror novel he wants her to write.

After fifty years of silence, Vincent Taylor is finally ready to talk about what really happened that night in 1975.

Imagine being asked to ghost-write your famous father’s next book. This is what happened to Olivia Dumont. Her father is a horror writer, and it has been speculated he murdered his siblings. To make matters complicated, she hasn’t spoken to her father in 20 years and no one in her current life, including her husband, knows she is related to a murderer. Can she pull it off? The story and writing made it easy to dive right in! An unhinged family just added to the chaos, drama, and speculation. The twists and turns kept you guessing and turning the pages! A great book for vacation as you won’t want to put this book down!

This book grabbed me from the very first page. I knew it was going to be amazing and I was right. I read, then turned back a few pages and reread them as every scene pulled me into the lives of the characters outlined in this story. I was soaking in every word and refused to be rushed despite the urge to get to the solution. This dark, twisted journey was wonderfully written and executed in a manner I found to be highly addictive. I loved everything about this story. Ms. Clark effortlessly pulled me and kept me engaged all the way to its most satisfying conclusion. I’m on my way to check out her backlist!

Julie Clark’s books are enthralling page turners and this is another that sets the record. Olivia is a ghostwriter who has acquired huge bills forcing her to consider selling her beloved home in LA. However, her literary agent calls with a job to write her father’s memoir. She can’t turn down the money and yet it’s messy. She hasn’t seen Vincent Taylor in years, a successful horror writer. How can this possible work? We know: life isn’t that easy with the hidden lies, secrets and dark shadows. Like very character in Julie Clark’s books, the reader follows a maze of complex paths.
