A Novel

An Instant New York Times Bestseller

Memories fade, but on this campus, legacies are never forgotten…or forgiven. A new thriller from New York Times bestselling author Megan Miranda.

Beckett Bowery never thought she’d return to Wyatt Valley, a picturesque college town in the Virginia mountains steeped in tradition. Her roots there were strong: Beckett’s parents taught at the college, and she never even imagined studying anywhere else—until a tragedy her senior year ended with two local men dead, and her roommate on the run, never to be seen again…

For the last two decades, Beckett has done her best to keep her distance. Then her daughter, Delilah, secretly applies to Wyatt College and earns a full scholarship, and Beckett can only hope that her lingering fears are unfounded. But deep down she knows that Wyatt Valley has a long memory, and that the past isn’t the only dangerous thing in town…©2025 Megan Miranda (P)2025 Simon & Schuster Audio

First time hearing this author, really enjoyed the book

It was a little slow going in the beginning, but it was worth staying engaged and listening to the whole story. I will continue to listen to this author for sure.

4.5 stars 🌟

This was my first Megan Miranda book and I really enjoyed. I believe I have found another mystery author to follow. I can't wait to read her other book I own. The character were very easy to follow and understand their motives. I liked her writing style and it was easy to follow and see the story unfolding.

Disappointed

I pre-ordered this and the anticipation was intense. Unfortunately, I was sadly disappointed. The story line is the same as the majority of her other books (think “All the Missing Girls”) but not as good. I was hoping for a comeback after “Daughter Of Mine,” but it’s getting old. To top it all off, the narrator’s voice didn’t fit the character.

Didn't care for this one

Struggled to care about the characters or the storyline. Not Megan Mianda's best story and I love her other works.

Preorder excitement, didn’t hold up

I preordered this book and was very excited about it. But I was disappointed when listening to it; I didn’t care about the mom (Beckett) at all. I enjoyed her other books but I never got into this one.

Character Development

The intricacies of character development kept me listening to this book in one day. Always looking forward to her next.,

BORING!!!

This book is so boring. The narration is wonderful, the story is just terrible, I only finished because I didn’t want to waste a credit.

Worst non abusive mother ever

YOU BELONG HERE could have been a better book, in MC/narrator Beckett was less of a helicopter mom. Insisting that her daughter Delilah under her thumb, she’s never met a boundary she won’t cross. Seriously, this woman is an example of why some adult children choose to estrange themselves from their parents.
No matter what happened 20 years ago, Beckett’s sense of entitlement to her daughter’s every thought and action is inappropriate. I wished that I could grab her through the audiobook speaker and tell her that at 18, her daughter should be separating and becoming independent. She needs to develop the confidence to stand on her own feet or else she’ll be an anxious adult?
I’m going to stop ranting because if Beckett doesn’t bother you, you might not dislike this book as much as I do.

Very disapointing

This novel began with interesting characters. But then it seemed to just lose its way. It ran out of steam. The pacing slowed. The characters failed to deliver. The tension just stopped. I finished the book but I just did not care by the end. Save your credit for a novel that will matter.
