It Could Have Been Her

release date: Jun 23, 2026
It Could Have Been Her
#1 New York Times bestselling author of Then She Was Gone Lisa Jewell brings her “thrilling, chilling” (Chris Whitaker) suspense to this shocking new thriller about a lost dog, a missing woman, and a house of long buried secrets. Jane Trevally is walking her dogs on her country estate when a small white terrier appears, alone and with no sign of the teenaged girl he’d been staying with nearby. When the teenager is reported missing, Jane offers to return the dog to his registered owner, hours away in London. Arriving at a run-down house called Thornwood in the deepest backwaters of Hampstead, she is immediately on alert—because Jane has a dark history with this house. The man who answers the door is not the man that Jane remembers from her past. He is cagey, and claims to know nothing about the missing teenage girl. Then, through the window of the house, Jane catches a glimpse of a haunted-looking woman. Conjuring her memories from twenty-five years ago, Jane knows this unsettling house holds the key—to the missing teenager, to her own traumatic story, and to the dark secrets of the past.

La verità su Josie Fair

release date: May 19, 2025
La verità su Josie Fair
Alix Summer e Josie Fair sono nate lo stesso giorno, nella stessa città, addirittura nello stesso ospedale. Sono “gemelle di compleanno”, come si potrebbe definirle, ma le loro esistenze sono tutt’altro che simili. Alix è una famosa podcaster, ha setosi capelli biondi che catturano la luce, abiti costosi e un uomo perfetto al suo fianco. Josie invece è sempre in jeans, ha due figlie quasi adulte e un marito molto più grande di lei. È una fantastica coincidenza che Alix e Josie si siano incontrate la prima volta proprio nel giorno del loro quarantacinquesimo compleanno, e non è l’unica: hanno festeggiato nello stesso pub, alla stessa ora, e i loro figli hanno frequentato le stesse scuole, lo stesso parco giochi. Non serve altro perché Alix proponga a Josie di registrare insieme una puntata del suo podcast: vuole raccontare la vita dell’altra, così straordinaria nella sua ordinarietà. E poi c’è qualcosa di oscuro nel matrimonio di Josie, che stimola la passione giornalistica di Alix e il suo desiderio di aiutare un’altra donna che, così crede, è vittima di un legame tossico. Ma quando Alix comincia a sospettare che il passato di Josie sia ben più violento di quanto lei sia disposta a confessare, tutto precipita. Josie ormai è coinvolta talmente a fondo nella sua vita che per Alix tornare a quando tutto è cominciato non solo è difficile, può essere letale. Con La verità su Josie Fair, Lisa Jewell ci regala un thriller sorprendente, che racconta il lato oscuro di ogni quotidiano in un crescendo di tensione tanto più minaccioso e incalzante quanto più simile alla vita vera. La nostra. «Una donna nata lo stesso giorno e nello stesso posto in cui sono nata io. Come un caso di bambini scambiati, ma al contrario. Noi non siamo state scambiate. Siamo state portate a casa dai genitori giusti. Ma se non fosse andata così?» «Un’idea inquietante, una trama imprevedibile, mille colpi di scena: un romanzo da cui è difficile staccarsi». Kirkus Reviews «Lisa Jewell al suo meglio. La verità su Josie Fair mi ha tenuta sveglia fino a tarda notte, e poi ha infestato i miei sogni». Lucy Foley

But, as quickly as she arrived, Josie disappears. Only then does Alix discover that Josie has left a terrible and terrifying legacy in her wake, and that Alix has become the subject of her own true crime podcast, with her life and her family’s lives under mortal threat.

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.

O viață regăsită evoluează de la roman de familie spre o poveste de dragoste matură, iar de aici, coboară în tenebrele unui thriller plin de tensiune, care înspăimântă și captivează. „Lisa Jewell își țese intriga complicată într-un ritm care ține cititorul în permanentă tensiune. Personajele complexe ale autoarei sunt pur și simplu perfecte. Nici cel mai abil cititor de thrillere nu va ghici încotro se îndreaptă lucrurile înainte ca firele să se descurce la final. Iar acei puțini care, totuși, se vor prinde nu se vor simți frustrați, pentru că ritmul și suspansul îi vor captiva.“ Booklist „Cărțile Lisei Jewell devin din ce în ce mai fascinante și mai complexe. Extrem de captivant și cu un ritm alert, bine scris și cu un final șocant care îi provoacă pe cititori să-l ghicească, O viață regăsită este thrillerul perfect.

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.

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?

Then She Was Gone
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Family Upstairs and None of This Is True comes an “acutely observed family drama” (People) about the lingering aftermath of a young girl’s disappearance. Ellie Mack was the perfect daughter. She was fifteen, beloved by her parents, friends, and teachers. She and her boyfriend made a teenaged golden couple. She was days away from an idyllic summer vacation, with her whole life ahead of her. And then she was gone. Now, her mother, Laurel Mack, is trying to put her life back together. It’s been ten years since her youngest child disappeared, seven years since her marriage ended, and only months since the last clue in Ellie’s case was unearthed. So when she meets an unexpectedly charming man in a café, no one is more surprised than Laurel at how quickly their flirtation develops into something deeper. Before she knows it, she’s meeting Floyd’s daughters—and his youngest, Poppy, takes Laurel’s breath away. Because looking at Poppy is like looking at Ellie. Laurel is haunted by her long unanswered questions. What happened to Ellie? Did she run away from home, as the police have long suspected? Who is Floyd, really? And why does his daughter remind Laurel so viscerally of her own missing girl?
