Book description
Who do you believe when you can't even trust yourself? A troubled young woman reunites with her sister in their hometown to uncover the truth about their mother's disappearance in this compelling family drama and literary suspense debut. "Knife River is a delicious smoke curl of a novel: atmospheric, sharp, and skilled at twisting the reader's guesses in unimaginable ways."-Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author When Jess was thirteen, her mother went for a walk and never returned. Jess and her older sister, Liz, never found out what happened. Instead, they did what they hoped their mother would do: survive. As soon as she was old enough, Jess fled their small town of Knife River, wandering from girlfriend to girlfriend like a ghost in her own life, aimless in her attempts to outrun grief and confusion. But one morning, fifteen years later, she gets the call she's been bracing for: Her mother's remains have been found. Jess returns to find Knife River-and her sister-frozen in time. The town is as claustrophobic and timeworn as ever. Liz still lives in their childhood home and has become obsessed with unsolved missing persons cases. Jess plans to stay only until they get some answers, but their mother's bones, exposed to the elements for so long, just leave them with more questions. As Jess gets caught up in the case and falls back into an entanglement with her high school girlfriend, her understanding of the past, Liz, her mother, and herself become more complicated-and the list of suspects more ominous. Knife River is a tense, intimate, and heartrending portrayal of how deeply and imperfectly women love one another: in romantic relationships, in intergenerational friendships, and especially as sisters.
