Powell's Staff: Powell's 2023 Book Preview: The Second Quarter (0 comment)
Although spring may be teasing us with its sunshine more than following through with any promises (we saw that weird snow flurry the other day, spring), there’s always one constant we can rely on: the months of April through June have some killer new book releases. These upcoming books are filled with aliens and haunted houses...

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis

A woman receives an unexpected visitor during a deadly snowstorm in this chilling thriller from New York Times bestselling author Heather Gudenkauf

She thought she was alone...

True crime writer Wylie Lark doesn't mind being snowed in at the isolated farmhouse where she's retreated to write her new book. A cozy fire, complete silence. It would be perfect, if not for the fact that decades earlier, at this very house, two people were murdered in cold blood and a girl disappeared without a trace.

As the storm worsens, Wylie finds herself trapped inside the house, haunted by the secrets contained within its walls--haunted by secrets of her own. Then she discovers a small child in the snow just outside. How long had the child been there? Where did he come from? Bringing the child inside for warmth and safety, she begins to search for answers. But soon it becomes clear that the farmhouse isn't as isolated as she thought, and someone is willing to do anything to find them.

"A tightly woven braid of a novel guaranteed to raise the hairs on the back of your neck and keep you turning the pages deep into the night. I devoured this." --Catherine McKenzie, USA TODAY bestselling author of I'll Never Tell

Synopsis

"Weaving together three narratives in an explosive and shocking denouement, The Overnight Guest will have you glued to the page and leave you wanting more." --Liv Constantine, international bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish

Silvers Reviews , January 29, 2022 (view all comments by Silvers Reviews)
WOW!! WOW!! WOW!! A remote farmhouse, a snow storm, an overnight guest, a mother and daughter imprisoned in a basement, a kidnapping of a young girl, and a murder. We find all of these as we move from present day to the year 2000. How are they all connected? You will wonder that as you begin to read because there are three story lines and many characters, but Ms. Gudenkauf as always brilliantly pulls it all together in this tense thriller. Wylie is an author writing her final draft in a remote farmhouse where a brutal murder and kidnapping occurred, the overnight guest appears out of nowhere during the storm, and we learn of the brutal murder and the guest's story. You will be on the edge of your seat as you read THE OVERNIGHT GUEST. Ms. Gudenkauf never disappoints with her books. Don’t miss this one if you are a fan. 5/5 This book was given to me by the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
