by Ruth Ware

Buy on Amazon

Recommended by

"This is the mystery I’ve been raving about to everyone, but particularly to fans of Daphne du Maurier’s masterpiece, Rebecca. The novel opens on a dark and stormy night when our young heroine, Harriet “Hal” Westaway, a tarot card reader in a seedy English resort town, receives news of an unexpected inheritance. The catch is that Hal knows the inheritance can’t possibly belong to her, but she’s so desperate for money that she steels herself impersonate the rightful heir. A gloomy ancestral mansion, never-ending rainstorms, a maniacal killer and plot twists aplenty grace this standout suspense novel."
