Resumen del Editor

A HEART-POUNDING GOTHIC THRILLER FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR

At seventeen, Lenora Hope

Hung her sister with a rope

Now reduced to a schoolyard chant, the Hope family murders shocked the Maine coast one bloody night in 1929. While most people assume seventeen-year-old Lenora was responsible, the police were never able to prove it. Other than her denial after the killings, she has never spoken publicly about that night, nor has she set foot outside Hope's End, the cliffside mansion where the massacre occurred.

Stabbed her father with a knife

Took her mother's happy life

It's now 1983, and home-health aide Kit McDeere arrives at a decaying Hope's End to care for Lenora after her previous nurse fled in the middle of the night. In her seventies and confined to a wheelchair, Lenora was rendered mute by a series of strokes and can only communicate with Kit by tapping out sentences on an old typewriter. One night, Lenora uses it to make a tantalizing offer - I want to tell you everything.

"It wasn't me," Lenora said

But she's the only one not dead

As Kit helps Lenora write about the events leading to the Hope family massacre, it becomes clear there's more to the tale than people know. But when new details about her predecessor's departure come to light, Kit starts to suspect Lenora might not be telling the complete truth - and that the seemingly harmless woman in her care could be far more dangerous than she first thought.

5⭐️ Truly Unpredictable

Every time I thought I'd figured out the direction the book was taking I was proved wrong, a general feeling while reading Riley Sager's work.
The performance was well done, I loved having 2 narrators, one for Kit and one for the letters. if really added to the feel of the story.
A truly great listen, and 100% worth a credit!

Enjoy the read

Good narration of the story, and the twist(s) within the plot is such a page turner.

Excellent Book!!

This book was brilliant. I loved everything from the Narrators to the characters and story line. Such unexpected plot twists. Flipping excellent

Disappointing

This ‘story’ is so poorly written, it makes it quite hard work to read. The only reason I endured it was to be able to be inclusive with the book club that chose it.
