Stone mothers : a novel

Kelly, Erin, 1976- (Author).

Marianne was never supposed to return to town, the town where she grew up in the shadow of the Nazareth Mental Hospital. Her mother may be suffering from dementia nearby, but she had thought she'd left that place, and its dark secrets, behind her. That is, until her husband buys a flat in its newly renovated interior so that she can be close enough to help her mother, and Marianne can't tell him why the place fills her with such dread, she can't risk destroying the careful life she's built.

Summary

Stone Mothers : A Novel


"Utterly engaging, terrifying, and unputdownable, this novel will haunt readers and have them wanting more from Kelly." -- Booklist , Starred Review Erin Kelly, the masterful author of He Said/She Said , delivers another intense, irresistible novel of psychological suspense in Stone Mothers. You can't keep the secret. You can't tell the truth. You can't escape the past ... Marianne was seventeen when she fled her home in Nusstead - leaving behind her family, her boyfriend, Jesse, and the body they buried. Now, thirty years later, forced to return to in order to help care for her sick mother, she can feel the past closing around her. And Jesse, who never forgave her for leaving in the first place, is finally threatening to expose the truth. Marianne will do anything to protect the life she's built, the husband and daughter who must never know what happened all those years ago. Even if it means turning to her worst enemy for help... But Marianne may not know the whole story - and she isn't the only one with secrets they'd kill to keep.
