New Releases by Sarah Pekkanen

The newest next thriller from #1 Bestselling Author Sarah Pekkanen combines a decades-old mystery with spine-tingling paranormal elements in this twisty novel of the seen and unseen. Extrasensory perception. The Gift. A Sixth Sense. Or something else.... In 1964, four remarkable young women at a prestigious university became the subjects of parapsychology experiments by a visionary scientist. On the cusp of a historic breakthrough, the women mysteriously vanished and the program was erased from history. Decades later, Riley Bell, newly divorced and desperate for a fresh start, accepts a caretaker job for an elderly widow named Betty. Riley steps into a home that is frozen in another era - no microwave, television, or cell phones, and Betty has never heard of the internet. Why has Betty lived in such profound isolation for so many years, and why does she need Riley now? As the story unfolds across two timelines - Betty’s 1960s era of 5 o’clock martinis and high-stakes experiments, and Riley’s quest to uncover the truth about the missing women - old secrets rise to the surface. And the only way to survive is to confront the mystery that has lingered for sixty years.

New from Sarah Pekkanen, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of House of Glass and co-author of The Wife Between Us. A shocking psychological thriller about the complex bonds of sisterhood―and what happens when they are stretched to the breaking point, The Locked Ward “will leave you guessing until the very end” (Jeneva Rose, bestselling author of The Perfect Marriage).

Georgia is locked in a psychiatric institution where the most violent offenders are held while she awaits trial. The only words she whispers when her estranged twin sister Amanda visits are, “I didn’t do it. You’ve got to get me out of here.” Amanda doesn''t trust Georgia, but she can''t abandon her in a place so eerie and menacing that it seems to exist in another dimension. Is Georgia the victim of a powerful family that''s so depraved murder is the least of their crimes? Or is Amanda being led down a path of madness into the web of a master manipulator?

“Wow, I loved this one so much! I didn’t want it to be over because I was enjoying it so much, but I couldn’t stop turning pages! House of Glass is a gripping thriller that was packed with surprises and compelling characters.” -- Freida McFadden The next thrilling novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah Pekkanen, House of Glass. On the outside they were the golden family with the perfect life. On the inside they built the perfect lie. A young nanny who plunged to her death, or was she pushed? A nine-year-old girl who collects sharp objects and refuses to speak. A lawyer whose job it is to uncover who in the family is a victim and who is a murderer. But how can you find out the truth when everyone here is lying? Rose Barclay is a nine-year-old girl who witnessed the possible murder of her nanny - in the midst of her parent''s bitter divorce - and immediately stopped speaking. Stella Hudson is a best interest attorney, appointed to serve as counsel for children in custody cases. She never accepts clients under thirteen due to her own traumatic childhood, but Stella''s mentor, a revered judge, believes Stella is the only one who can help. From the moment Stella passes through the iron security gate and steps into the gilded, historic DC home of the Barclays, she realizes the case is even more twisted, and the Barclay family far more troubled, than she feared. And there''s something eerie about the house itself: It''s a plastic house, with not a single bit of glass to be found. As Stella comes closer to uncovering the secrets the Barclays are desperate to hide, danger wraps around her like a shroud, and her past and present are set on a collision course in ways she never expected. Everyone is a suspect in the nanny''s murder. The mother, the father, the grandmother, the nanny''s boyfriend. Even Rose. Is the person Stella''s supposed to protect the one she may need protection from?

Ela está mentindo para descobrir a verdade. Quando Jessica Farris se inscreve para um estudo conduzido por um grupo de psicologia, ela pensa que tudo o que precisa fazer é responder a algumas perguntas, receber seu dinheiro e ir embora. Mas à medida que as perguntas ficam mais invasivas, Jess começa a sentir como se soubessem o que ela está pensando... e, pior, o que está escondendo. Conforme a paranoia de Jess aumenta, fica claro que ela não pode mais confiar no que é real em sua vida e o que são experimentos manipulados pelo grupo de pesquisa. Agora, presa em uma teia de incertezas, Jess rapidamente aprende que algumas obsessões podem ser mortais.

«Se volete il mio aiuto, devo sapere tutto. Non solo quello che siete disposti a raccontarmi.» La dottoressa Avery Chambers è una psicologa. Non una qualunque: seguire le regole non è mai stato il suo forte, neanche quelle della sua professione. Infatti, il metodo terapeutico da lei messo a punto, che in dieci, intense sessioni promette di risolvere qualunque problema, oltre ad averla resa una vera celebrità, è stato anche il motivo per cui l''hanno radiata dall''albo. Ma, se non hai paura di farla entrare nella tua vita, è lei la persona che può cambiare le cose. È quello che spera Marissa Bishop quando si presenta nel suo studio insieme insieme al marito, Matthew. Una coppia con una casa bellissima, un bambino meraviglioso, una vita dorata che sembra uscita da un post di Instagram di quelli che ispirano ammirazione, stupore, perfino rabbia e invidia. Ma Avery si accorge subito che, dietro le apparenze, c''è qualcosa di strano nelle due persone sedute sul divano di fronte a lei. E non si tratta solo dello sconvolgente, pruriginoso segreto che Marissa confessa quasi subito, alla prima sessione, davanti a uno sbalordito Matthew. C''è dell''altro. E Avery è determinata a scoprirlo... Ma i segreti, si sa, hanno la cattiva abitudine di portarsi dietro altri segreti. E se Marissa e Matthew Bishop sono disposti a lasciar entrare la dottoressa Chambers nella loro vita, sarà in grado quest''ultima di non farsi trascinare nell''abisso con loro? Il nuovo thriller di Sarah Pekkanen e Greer Hendricks vi risucchierà in una spirale di segreti, bugie, rivelazioni e colpi di scena: se cercate una lettura che non dà tregua, l''avete trovata.

The next electrifying novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author duo behind The Wife Between Us. "Propulsive and thrilling....A page-turner that will keep you guessing until the very end." --Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Malibu Rising Wealthy Washington suburbanites Marissa and Matthew Bishop seem to have it all—until Marissa is unfaithful. Beneath their veneer of perfection is a relationship riven by work and a lack of intimacy. She wants to repair things for the sake of their eight-year-old son and because she loves her husband. Enter Avery Chambers. Avery is a therapist who lost her professional license. Still, it doesn’t stop her from counseling those in crisis, though they have to adhere to her unorthodox methods. And the Bishops are desperate. When they glide through Avery’s door and Marissa reveals her infidelity, all three are set on a collision course. Because the biggest secrets in the room are still hidden, and it’s no longer simply a marriage that’s in danger. "An utterly compelling, spellbinding read." --Lisa Jewell, author of Then She Was Gone and Invisible Girl

"The page-turning new novel from the internationally bestselling author known for her "conversational writing style and a knack for making readers care about her characters" (The Washington Post) takes us into the homes of an idyllic suburban neighborhood where we discover the burning secrets hiding just below the surface. Bucolic Newport Cove, where spontaneous block parties occur on balmy nights and all of the streets are named for flowers, is proud of its distinction of being named one the top twenty safest neighborhoods in the US. It''s also one of the most secret-filled. Kellie Scott has just returned to work after a decade of being a stay-at-home mom. She''s adjusting to high heels, scrambling to cook dinner for her family after a day at the office--and soaking in the dangerous attention of a very handsome, very married male colleague. Kellie''s neighbor Susan Barrett begins every day with fresh resolutions: she won''t eat any carbs, she''ll go to bed at a reasonable hour, and she''ll stop stalking her ex-husband and his new girlfriend. Gigi Kennedy seems to have it all together--except her teenage daughter has turned into a hostile stranger and her husband is running for Congress, which means her old skeletons are in danger of being brought into the light. Then a new family moves to this quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac. Tessa Campbell seems friendly enough to the other mothers, if a bit reserved. Then the neighbors notice that no one is ever invited to Tessa''s house. And soon, it becomes clear that Tessa is hiding the biggest secret of all"--

Hľadáme ženy vo veku 18 až 32 rokov na účasť na výskume v oblasti etiky a morálky. Štedrá odmena. Zaručená anonymita. Keď sa Jessica Farrisová prihlási do psychologického výskumu pod vedením tajomnej doktorky Shieldsovej, nazdáva sa, že zodpovie pár otázok, dobre si zarobí a tým sa to celé skončí. Otázka číslo 1: Vedeli by ste zaklamať bez pocitu viny? Neškodný experiment však postupne naberá na intenzite a prerastá až do osobných sedení, na ktorých Jessica dostáva úlohy v teréne s konkrétnymi inštrukciami. Dievčiny sa pomaly zmocňuje neblahý pocit, že doktorka celkom ovláda jej život a vidí až do najtajnejších zákutí jej mysle. Otázka číslo 2: Ublížili ste niekedy niekomu, koho ste mali rada? Jessicu postupne ochromuje plazivá paranoja; pomaly stráca schopnosť rozlíšiť, čo je skutočné a čo sú len psychiatričkine manipulatívne pokusy. Ocitla sa v zvrátenom kolotoči lží a podvodov, ktorý sa krúti čoraz rýchlejšie a ona musí čo najskôr nájsť spôsob, ako z neho vystúpiť... Otázka číslo 3: Mal by trest vždy zodpovedať zločinu? Znepokojivý psychotriler o morálke, pokrivených vzťahoch a zničujúcej žiarlivosti. Od autoriek bestsellera Manželka medzi nami.

“Writing with rawness and realism, Pekkanen doesn’t hold back…Fans of Liane Moriarty and Anne Tyler will appreciate the story’s depth.” —Booklist “In her signature conversational style, Pekkanen uncovers the truth behind the lies as Josie comes to grips with reality vs. the mirage of her marriage.” —Library Journal (starred review) In this intricate and enthralling domestic drama, perfect for fans of Big Little Lies and The Affair, the internationally bestselling author of the “gossipy page-turner” (Glamour) The Perfect Neighbors goes deep into a marriage in crisis, peeling back layers of secrets to discover where the relationship veered off course—and whether it is worth saving. Josie and Frank Moore are happy…at least Josie thinks they are. As parents of two young girls in the Chicago suburbs, their days can be both busy and monotonous, and sometimes Josie wonders how she became a harried fortysomething mother rather than the driven career woman she once was. But Frank is a phenomenal father, he’s handsome and charismatic, and he still looks at his wife like she’s the beautiful woman he married more than a decade ago. Josie isn’t just happy—she’s lucky. Until one Saturday morning when Josie borrows her husband’s phone to make a quick call—and sees nine words that shatter her world. Now Josie feels as if she is standing at the edge of a sharp precipice. As she looks back at pivotal moments in the relationship she believed would last forever, she is also plunging ahead, surprising everyone (especially herself) with how far she will go to uncover the extent of her husband’s devastating secret. With her “conversational writing style and a knack for making readers care about her characters” (The Washington Post) bestselling author Sarah Pekkanen paints a vivid, kaleidoscopic portrait of a marriage before and during a crisis—and of a woman who fears that the biggest secret of all may be the one she’s hiding from herself.

An all-expense-paid week at a luxury villa in Jamaica—it’s the invitation of a lifetime for a group of old college friends.

Allie is shattered by the news that a genetic illness runs in her family. Savannah is carrying the secret of her husband’s infidelity. And, finally, there’s Pauline, who spares no expense to throw her wealthy husband an unforgettable thirty-fifth birthday celebration, hoping it will gloss over the cracks already splitting apart their new marriage. Languid hours on a private beach, gourmet dinners, and late nights of drinking kick off an idyllic week for the women and their husbands. But as a powerful hurricane bears down on the island, turmoil swirls inside the villa, forcing each of the women to reevaluate everything she knows about her friends—and herself.
