Cyrus Haven and Evie Cormac return in this "expertly paced and psychologically acute" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) thriller from Michael Robotham that's "one of his best, suspenseful and hard to put down" (Stephen King).
Twenty years ago, Cyrus Haven survived a family massacre. The killer? His brother Elias.
Now Elias is applying for release from a secure psychiatric hospital-and Cyrus is expected to forgive and welcome him home. In this "brilliant novel" (The Globe and Mail, Toronto), Elias is returning to a very different world. Cyrus is now a successful psychologist, working with the police, sharing his house with Evie Cormac, a damaged and gifted teenager who can tell when someone is lying.
When a man is murdered and his daughter Maya Kirk disappears, Cyrus is called in to profile the killer and help piece together Maya's last hours. Soon, a second victim is taken, and Evie is the only person who glimpsed the man behind the wheel. But there's a probl em. Only two people believe her. One is Cyrus.
The other is the killer.
Rezension:
"This brilliant novel is a whodunnit that morphs into a serial murder that evolves into a chase-to-save-the victim, and then adds a final twist. . . . a simply terrific mystery novel."-Globe and Mail
"The guy can't write a bad book. This is one of his best, suspenseful and hard to put down." -Stephen King
"A riveting page-turner." -Megan Goldin, author of The Night Swim
"[An] expertly paced and psychologically acute novel . . . [with] insightfully drawn characters and [a] superb sense of place that the author conjures up with laconic ease, razor-sharp wit, and, above all, compassion. . . . Gripping and insightful." -Kirkus (starred review)
"I loved Lying Beside You. Michael Robotham is such a wonderfully perceptive writer; rich, real characters who are constantly surprising . . . I could read about these two forever." -Alex Marwood, author of The Wicked Girls
"Not just a cleverly constructed crime novel . . . it's also an achingly beaut iful story about trust, redemption and love that had me intermittently catching my breath." -Sydney Morning Herald (Australia)
"Thoughtful . . . it isn't easy to maintain a balance between two such different plot strands, but Robotham does it brilliantly." -Sunday Times (UK), Best Crime Books of 2022
