Summary

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.

Loved it!

Riley Sagar is back on form with this one. Finished it in one sitting, more or less. Not scary or a thriller per se, but such an absorbing story, full of unexpected twists and turns. Narration was excellent too. Highly recommended.

Brilliant 🤩

The narration from both parts was outstanding but especially the voice of Lenora 😊. I have read a couple of Riley Sager books and although I really click with the writing style usually the ending are so mundane it spoils it slightly. This one though, excellent from beginning to end 😊

Intriguing

The book kept me captivated from start to finish. I thought the ending was somewhat far fetched. Nevertheless a good read.
