New Releases by Kat Rosenfield

A Knives Out-style whodunnit with a twist of Taylor Jenkins Reid, You Must Remember This is an immersive Gothic mystery, with a long-ago love affair, icy death, and a rich family gone bad, from Kat Rosenfield, the acclaimed author of No One Will Miss Her. On Christmas Eve, eighty-five-year-old Miriam Caravasios steps onto the ice that surrounds her seaside estate on Maine''s Mount Desert Island. As a younger woman, she used to steal out on winter nights to meet her lover, walking across the frozen reach to their secret meeting place. She knows the way—but not the year. Miriam, her mind clouded by dementia, doesn’t hear the snap of thin ice until it’s too late. Was it an accident? Suicide? Or worse: did someone lure the old woman onto the frozen reach, to her death? There are plenty of suspects; Miriam’s fractured and complicated family has gathered in their Bar Harbor mansion to celebrate what everyone believed would likely be the matriarch’s last Christmas. The guests include Delphine, Miriam’s granddaughter, a frightened and insecure young woman who adored her grandmother, and Miriam’s live-in aide, Adam, whom Delphine has been secretly dating. There is Miriam''s former housekeeper, Shelly Dyer, who left the family''s employment years ago under mysterious circumstances. There are Miriam’s children: Theodora, who gave up everything to assume the role of caretaker; Diana, who seems just a little too eager to inherit her share of the estate; and Richard, whose longtime grudge against his mother has curdled into gleeful contempt at her deterioration. But it’s Delphine who comes in for the greatest scrutiny when they learn the shocking news that Miriam’s will cut off her children, leaving her granddaughter almost everything. As tensions rise, Delphine is emboldened to start asking questions: not just about her grandmother''s death, but about her life, and the love story that defined it as the rest of her memories faded. The trail will take her into the past, into dark places — and eventually, onto thin ice.

Una novela inteligente e ingeniosa de suspense psicológico en la que una chica humilde de un pequeño pueblo conoce a una bella influencer de Instagram de la gran ciudad, con un giro mortal que sorprenderá incluso al lector más inteligente. En una hermosa mañana de octubre en una zona rural de Maine, un investigador de homicidios de la policía estatal se detiene en la deprimida ciudad de Copper Falls. El almacén de chatarra está en llamas, y Lizzie Oullette, una pobre mujer prácticamente vagabunda aparece muerta, y su esposo, Dwayne, no aparece por ningún lado. A medida que el escándalo recorre la comunidad, las investigaciones del detective Ian Bird lo alejan inesperadamente del pequeño pueblo de Maine y lo conducen a una lujosa casa adosada varias horas al sur de allí. Adrienne Richards, rubia y fabulosa influencer y esposa de un multimillonario caído en desgracia, había estado alquilando la pequeña casa del lago de Lizzie para hacer turismo rural... a pesar de que Copper Falls es cualquier cosa menos una ciudad turística. A medida que se aclara la conexión de Adrienne con el caso, también lo hace su conexión con Lizzie, quien narra su historia desde el más allá de la tumba. Cada mujer se siente desesperadamente sola a su manera, y navegan en una relación que trasciende los límites de clase: transaccional, complicada y, finalmente, mortal. Una historia de privilegios, identidades y astucia, en la que dos mujeres de mundos opuestos descubren los peligros de codiciar la vida de otra persona.

"Blade-sharp, whip-smart, and genuinely original — a thriller to refresh your faith in the genre, your belief that a story can still outpace and outsmart you."— A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in The Window "Clever and surprising...The superb character-driven plot delivers an astonishing, believable jolt."—Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Deserves two big thumbs up. Readers will be gripped by this astonishing story in which one gasp-inducing twist follows on the heels of another. A unique page-turner that just begs to be turned into a movie." —Booklist (starred review) "Sly, sinister...a white-knuckled read. There are gasp-worthy surprises, of course, and the exquisite and lurid twists will reveal themselves in time."--Vanity Fair A smart, witty, crackling novel of psychological suspense in which a girl from a hardscrabble small town meets a gorgeous Instagram influencer from the big city, with a murderous twist that will shock even the most savvy reader. On a beautiful October morning in rural Maine, a homicide investigator from the state police pulls into the hard-luck town of Copper Falls. The local junkyard is burning, and the town pariah Lizzie Oullette is dead—with her husband, Dwayne, nowhere to be found. As scandal ripples through the community, Detective Ian Bird’s inquiries unexpectedly lead him away from small-town Maine to a swank city townhouse several hours south. Adrienne Richards, blonde and fabulous social media influencer and wife of a disgraced billionaire, had been renting Lizzie’s tiny lake house as a country getaway…even though Copper Falls is anything but a resort town. As Adrienne’s connection to the case becomes clear, so too does her connection to Lizzie, who narrates their story from beyond the grave. Each woman is desperately lonely in her own way, and they navigate a relationship that cuts across class boundaries: transactional, complicated, and, finally, deadly. A Gone Girl for the gig economy, this is a story of privilege, identity, and cunning, as two devious women from opposite worlds discover the dangers of coveting someone else’s life. "Both amusingly satirical and darkly bloody."—The Washington Post

Durch eine mysteriöse Krankheit steigt das Wasser auch in ihrer Lunge. Doch als ihr Vater ausgerechnet im feuchtwarmen Florida einen Job annimmt, verschwinden die Symptome.

EIN ÜBERWÄLTIGENDES BUCH: packende Erzählstimme, hypnotische Atmosphäre, ein unglaubliches Familiengeheimnis!

There was a shadow in the water. And when it moved beneath our boat, the sea opened its yawning blue mouth and swallowed my mother whole. After nine years spent suffocating in the arid expanses of the Midwest, far from the sea where her mother drowned, Callie Morgan and her father are returning to the coast. And miraculously, Callie can finally breathe easily. No more sudden, clawing attacks and weeklong hospital stays. But something is calling to her from the river behind their house and from the ocean miles away. Just as her life begins to feel like her own, and the potential for romance is blossoming, the intoxicating pull of the dark water seeps into her mind, filling her with doubt and revealing family secrets. Is it madness, or is there a voice, beckoning her to come to sea? To answer the call of the dark waves. To come home.

Emotioneel, rauw en sexy Becca wilde steeds weg van het saaie dorpsleven, de beklemmende sfeer en eeuwige roddels. Van de afschuwelijke ontdekking van een lijk raakt ze in paniek. Het geweld uit de `grote stad komt nu heel dichtbij. Voor het eerst in haar leven wil ze nu juist niets liever dan in het dorp blijven. De details van Anne Amelias laatste momenten worden afgespeeld tegenover Beccas zorgeloze zomer. Dit adembenemende youngadult-debuut is een liefdesverhaal en psychologische thriller ineen.

An arresting un-coming-of-age story, from a breathtaking talent Becca has always longed to break free from her small, backwater hometown. But the discovery of an unidentified dead girl on the side of a dirt road sends the town--and Becca--into a tailspin. Unable to make sense of the violence of the outside world creeping into her backyard, Becca finds herself retreating inward, paralyzed from moving forward for the first time in her life. Short chapters detailing the last days of Amelia Anne Richardson''s life are intercut with Becca''s own summer as the parallel stories of two young women struggling with self-identity and relationships on the edge twist the reader closer and closer to the truth about Amelia''s death.
