"Propulsive ... a dizzying Gothic whodunit."
—New York Times Book Review
Bestselling author Riley Sager returns with a Gothic chiller about a young caregiver assigned to work for a woman accused of a Lizzie Borden-like massacre decades earlier.
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.

My predictions were all over the place and just when I thought I had it all figured out they flipped it on me.

This one gets a four-star simply because of the amount of storyline and characters. There are four separate storylines all with their own characters. It ends up being connected in the end, but my brain was burning a lot of calories, and I found it a bit hard to keep in that sense of the word.
But boy am I glad I hung on because Sager never disappoints with his endings. Every single, psychological thriller I have read, I’ve always been able to figure out the ending before I get there. But never with Riley Sager‘s books. They are so incredibly out there. Something I never would’ve thought and also satisfied at the same time.
Well, done! I recommend this book for sure. Just be sure to pay attention to everything or you might get lost.
Wow, the end!!!
