A home—and an inheritance—at stake

Jill and Ted’s carefully curated New York brownstone represents more than comfort: it embodies the status and lifestyle they are desperate to preserve. When an inheritance runs out and a bad investment puts that life under pressure, they turn to a chilling solution involving a wealthy relative. The setup links domestic ambition with psychological suspense, placing trust, shared motives, and the possibility of a misstep at the center of the conflict. Shari Lapena’s tenth thriller builds its premise around a couple’s effort to protect what they value—and the uncertainty built into their plan.

Book overview

The tenth thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next Door

"Shari Lapena is far and away one of the best psychological thriller writers in the world. . . She is intensely bingeable." --Lisa Jewell


Jill and Ted adore their New York brownstone the way others adore their children. They have carefully, expensively, made every inch of it their own. It reflects who they are, their status and tastes. With the grand mahogany staircase and state-of-the-art kitchen, it is the stuff of glossy magazines and real-estate dreams. It is their sanctuary.

So when Ted's inheritance runs out and he makes a bad investment, they panic. How can they protect their beloved home and enviable lifestyle?

The answer is obvious. Or at least, it is obvious to Jill and Ted. The death of one wealthy family member--from whom they stand to inherit millions--could solve all their problems. Together, they will get away with murder.
