AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Pitch-perfect... Dean tells
this story with such nuance and humanity, you're desperate to step
into its pages." -The New York Times "Heart-stopping psychological
drama... A modern-day classic." -Jeffery Deaver, New York Times
bestselling author "A gripping story about family dynamics and the
nature of human psychology." -Good Housekeeping She thought she had
escaped her past. But there are some things you can't outrun. Lex
Gracie doesn't want to think about her family. She doesn't want to
think about growing up in her parents' House of Horrors. And she
doesn't want to think about her identity as Girl A: the girl who
escaped, the eldest sister who freed her older brother and four
younger siblings. It's been easy enough to avoid her parents--her
father never made it out of the House of Horrors he created, and
her mother spent the rest of her life behind bars. But when her
mother dies in prison and leaves Lex and her siblings the family
home, she can't run from her past any longer. Together with her
sister, Evie, Lex intends to turn the home into a force for good.
But first she must come to terms with her siblings--and with the
childhood they shared. What begins as a propulsive tale of escape
and survival becomes a gripping psychological family story about
the shifting alliances and betrayals of sibling
relationships--about the secrets our siblings keep, from themselves
and each other. Who have each of these siblings become? How do
their memories defy or galvanize Lex's own? As Lex pins each
sibling down to agree to her family's final act, she discovers how
potent the spell of their shared family mythology is, and who among
them remains in its thrall and who has truly broken free. For
readers of Room and Sharp Objects, an absorbing and psychologically
immersive novel about a young girl who escapes captivity-but not
the secrets that shadow the rest of her life.
