The Night Side

A twisted psychological thriller about dark family secrets, manipulation, and the sins that bind us to the past.

Ruby Carlson fled Stoneybrook, Montana twenty years ago and never looked back. She built a new life in England as an archaeologist—digging up ancient secrets while burying her own.

Then the call comes. Her mother, Ida, has vanished and is presumed dead.

Ida wasn't a normal mother. She was a notorious psychic medium, a con artist who destroyed lives with fraudulent séances. A woman Ruby barely escaped.

Is her mother really gone for good? Or could this be her latest twisted scam?

Ruby returns to Montana to find nothing but questions. Ida's body hasn't been recovered and Ruby's childhood sweetheart—now a detective on the case—is hiding something.

As Ruby digs deeper, the horrors multiply. Buried bones in the backyard. Decades of lies connecting everyone in town. Dark family secrets that should have stayed hidden.

Some memories are better left buried. Some mothers never let you go. And some sins can never be forgiven.

A nerve-shredding psychological thriller from the acclaimed author of The Secret Sister and The Savage Instinct. Perfect for fans of Riley Sager and Ruth Ware.
