AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "I absolutely loved Invisible Girl--Lisa Jewell has a way of combining furiously twisty, utterly gripping plots with wonderfully rich characterization--she has such compassion for her characters, and we feel we know them utterly... A triumph " --Lucy Foley, New York Times bestselling author The #1 New York Times bestselling author of None of This Is True returns with an intricate thriller about a young woman's disappearance and a group of strangers whose lives intersect in its wake. Young Saffyre Maddox spent three years under the care of renowned child psychologist Roan Fours. When Dr. Fours decides their sessions should end, Saffyre feels abandoned. She begins looking for ways to connect with him, from waiting outside his office to walking through his neighborhood late at night. She soon learns more than she ever wanted to about Roan and his deceptively perfect family life. On a chilly Valentine's night, Saffyre will disappear, taking any secrets she has learned with her. Owen Pick's life is falling apart. In his thirties and living in his aunt's spare bedroom, he has just been suspended from his job as a teacher after accusations of sexual misconduct--accusations 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. Owen lives across the street from the Fours family. The Fours have a bad feeling about their neighbor; Owen is a bit creepy and suspect and their teenaged daughter swears he followed her home from the train station one night. Could Owen be responsible? What happened to the beautiful missing Saffyre, and does her disappearance truly connect them all? Evocative, vivid, and unputdownable, Lisa Jewell's latest thriller is another "haunting, atmospheric, stay-up-way-too-late read" (Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author).
Du ser henne ikke, men hun ser deg. I mørket, fra en forlatt byggeplass der katter jakter og rever hyler, sitter en jente og følger med …Da Saffyre Maddox var 10 år skjedde det noe forferdelig. Siden har hun båret på smerten. Mannen som hun trodde skulle lege sårene hennes gjorde aldri det, og når gjemmer hun seg – usynlig i skyggene – og oppdager hemmeligheter om folk. Owen Pick er også usynlig. Han har aldri hatt kjæreste. Han har aldri hatt en venn. Ingen ser ham. Ingen bryr seg. Men da Saffyre forsvinner sporløst fra nabotomten, ser plutselig alle ham. De anklager ham og holder ham ansvarlig for Saffyres forsvinning. En altoppslukende fortelling, full av overraskelser, familiehemmeligheter og bedrag.«Mørk, fantastisk spennende og gripende.» LUCY FOLEY, forfatter

Jokaisella on salaisuutensa. Mitä jos et enää muistaisikaan omaasi? "Raikas ja vetävä, henkilöt ovat niin todellisia että tunsin heidän kipunsa. Rakastin Löysin sinut -romaania." - Clare Mackintosh Tuulenpieksemässä rantakaupungissa yksinhuoltajaäiti Alice Lake löytää miehen istumasta rannalta talonsa edustalta. Miehellä ei ole nimeä, ei päällystakkia eikä hajuakaan siitä, miten hän oli sinne joutunut. Alice päästää hänet taloonsa. Samaan aikaan Lontoon liepeillä hiljattain avioitunut Lily Monrose on huolesta sairas, sillä hänen miehensä ei ole palannut töistä kotiin. Sitten poliisi väittää, että miestä jonka hän on nainut ei ole olemassakaan. Lukuisat juonenpätkät risteilevät yllättävästi ja törmäävät lopulta kiehtovasti yhteen. "Ajatuksia provosoiva romaani, täynnä uskottavia henkilöitä, upeaa kirjoitusta ja yllättäviä käänteitä..." - Booklist Brittikirjailija Lisa Jewell (s. 1968) on kansainvälinen menestyskirjailija, jonka teoksia on käännetty 16 kielelle ja myyty yli kaksi miljoonaan kappaletta yksinomaan englanninkielisessä maailmassa.

Psykologinen trilleri pakottavasta tarpeesta tarkkailla. ”Tämä vangitseva, lukutahtia kiihdyttävä romaani on sekä kuristusote kurkulla -trilleri että aidosti koskettava perhedraama.” - A. J. Finn Idyllinen naapurusto järkkyy kun tapahtuu murha. Hyväosaisten yhteisössä jokaisella on salaisuutensa, mutta kenen salaisuus on kyllin hirveä johtaakseen murhaan? Bristoliin miehensä kanssa muuttanut Joey hullaantuu naapuriin, charmikkaaseen rehtoriin, ja alkaa pitää tätä silmällä. Rehtorilla puolestaan on oma luvaton ihastuskohteensa, kun taas hänen vakoojaksi aikova poikansa kiikaroi huoneestaan kaikkea mikä liikkuu. Näkökulmat vaihtuvat ja ihmissuhteet syvenevät kihelmöiväksi psykologiseksi draamaksi. Kuka on uhri, kuka syyllinen? Arvailu saa jatkua villinä viimeiselle sivulle saakka.

Ellie Mack oli täiuslik tütar. Ta oli viieteistkümneaastane, kolmest lapsest noorim. Teda armastasid ühtviisi nii ta vanemad, sõbrad kui ka õpetajad. Tema ja ta poiss olid unistuste paar. Kõigest mõne päeva pärast pidid läbi saama riigieksamid ja algama idülliline suvevaheaeg. Kogu elu oli ta ees valla. Ja siis oli ta läinud. Nüüd püüab ta ema Laurel Mack oma eluga edasi minna. Tütre kadumisest on möödas kümme aastat, abielu purunemisest seitse aastat, ja kõigest mõni kuu on möödas sellest, kui Ellie juhtumi viimane juhtlõng päevavalgele tuli. Kui Laurel kohtab aga kohvikus üht sarmikat meest, on talle enesele ehk kõige suuremaks üllatuseks, kui kiiresti nendevaheline flirt millekski sügavamaks kujuneb. Peagi tutvub ta juba Floydi tütardega - ja mehe noorem laps Poppy võtab Laureli hingetuks. Sest Poppy näeb välja nagu Ellie. Ja nüüd hakkavad küsimused, millega Laurel on püüdnud kõigest väest rahu teha, teda uuesti vaevama. Kuhu Ellie läks? Kas ta jooksis tõesti kodust minema, nagu politsei on pikka aega kahtlustanud, või oli tema kadumisel mõni valgustkartvam põhjus? Kes see Floyd õieti on? Ja miks meenutab ta tütar nii jahmatava täpsusega Laureli enda kadunud tüdrukut? Lisa Jewell on rahvusvaheline menukirjanik, kelle sulest on ilmunud 17 romaani, sealhulgas New York Timesi ja Sunday Timesi bestseller "Ja siis oli ta läinud". Jewelli teoseid on ingliskeelsetes maades müüdud üle kahe miljoni eksemplari ja neid on tõlgitud enam kui kahekümne viide keelde. Lisa elab koos abikaasa ja kahe tütrega Londonis." Jewell paljastab oma pööreterohke süzhee just sellise tempoga, et lugejad põnevusest küüsi näriks. Mitmetahulised tegelased on täiuseni välja joonistatud ja isegi kõige paadunum põnevikulugeja ei aima, millise suuna asjad võtavad, kuni viimnegi sõlm on lahti harutatud. Need vähesed, kes lõpu ette ära aimavad, ei saa seda aga pahaks panna, sest jutuvestmise tempo ja kvaliteet paeluvad neid lõpuni." (Booklist)
