A GMA Buzz Pick   “Kim McCreight's thrillers are smart, propulsive and impossible to put down." --Laura Dave, author of The Last Thing He Told Me In this relentlessly twisty literary thriller from  New York Times  bestselling author Kimberly McCreight, a desperate intervention brings together a group of college friends 10 years after graduation -- a reunion marked by lies, betrayal, and murder. Coming Soon from Amblin Television Everyone has those friends. Doesn’t matter how long it’s been, or how badly they’ve occasionally behaved, or how late it is when that call finally comes -- you show up. No questions asked. Honestly, that’s how the five of us ended up here in the Catskills. We did have the best of intentions. Especially after what happened to Alice all those years ago, we can’t bear to think of losing anyone else. In fact, we’ll do anything to make sure that doesn’t happen. We’ll go so much farther than we ever thought we would.   In the end, maybe that’s what caught up with us. That, and the fact that we’re such a complicated group -- so much history and so many big personalities. Secrets, too, that can slip out at the most inopportune moments. Of course, we love each other despite all of those things. We love each other no matter what. There’s something so beautiful about that kind of unconditional love. It can turn ugly, though. Or maybe that’s just us. After all, we’ve already been through so much together. And we have so very much to hide. "A brilliantly constructed puzzle of a novel--using a shifting kaleidoscope of unique voices, McCreight hands us all the pieces and forces us to assemble them into a shocking portrait of regret, grief, and dark loyalty." -- "Julie Clark, author of The Last Flight" "Years' worth of friendship, secrets, coverups, and lies lead to one intensely satisfying, jaw-dropping conclusion in this expertly plotted novel...
