Recensori in anteprima

In the vein of Fiona Barton's The Widow and Renée Knight's Disclaimer, a psychological thriller about a war reporter who returns to her childhood home after her mother's death but becomes convinced that all is not well in the house next door—but is what she’s seeing real or a symptom of the trauma she suffered in Syria? The one person you should trust is lying to you... Kate is a war reporter who returns to her childhood home after her mother's death, but becomes convinced that all is not well in the house next door. An incident with a young Syrian boy haunts her dreams and as she struggles to separate her memories of Syria from the quiet town in which she grew up—and also to reconcile her memories of a traumatic childhood with her sister’s insistence that all was not as Kate remembers—she begins to wonder what is actually true…and what is just in her mind. Nuala Ellwood brings us an unforgettable damaged character, a haunting, humanizing look at the Syrian conflict, and a deeply harrowing psychological thriller that readers won’t be able to put down. “A formidable debut thriller, My Sister’s Bones, rivals The Girl on the Train as a compulsive read (and beats it for style).” —The Observer
