Book description
El nuevo thriller de la autora del best seller internacional La pareja de al lado. Bienvenidos a Stanhope. Un barrio seguro... y perfecto para las familias. William Wooler es, a primera vista, un padre y marido entregado. Pero ha estado teniendo una aventura que esa misma tarde ha tenido un horrible final en un motel de las afueras. Cuando regresa a casa, destrozado y enfadado, se sorprende al ver que Avery, su hija de nueve años, ha salido antes de la escuela y pierde los estribos. Horas más tarde, la familia de Avery comunica su desaparición. De repente, Stanhope ya no parece un barrio tan apacible. Y William no es el único que esconde una mentira. A medida que los testigos aportan información, que puede o no ser cierta, sobre la desaparición, los vecinos de Avery se muestran cada vez más desquiciados. ¿Quién se ha llevado a Avery Wooler? Nada te preparará para la verdad. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "The most addictive book I've read in ages--so slick and disquieting and clever. Just brilliant." --Lisa Jewell, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Family Remains "Lapena is a master of manipulation." --USA Today Welcome to Stanhope. A safe neighborhood. A place for families. William Wooler is a family man, on the surface. But he's been having an affair, an affair that ended horribly this afternoon at a motel up the road. So when he returns to his house, devastated and angry, to find his difficult nine-year-old daughter, Avery, unexpectedly home from school, William loses his temper. Hours later, Avery's family declares her missing. Suddenly Stanhope doesn't feel so safe. And William isn't the only one on his street who's hiding a lie. As witnesses come forward with information that may or may not be true, Avery's neighbors become increasingly unhinged. Who took Avery Wooler? Nothing will prepare you for the truth.
