Book Synopsis

"I love all Lisa's books, but The Night She Disappeared is her best thriller yet." --Harlan Coben, New York Times bestselling author of Win

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Then She Was Gone and The Family Upstairs comes another riveting work of "gloriously twisted" (Marie Claire) psychological suspense about a web of people whose lives are forever changed in the wake of a young couple's disappearance.

On a beautiful summer night in a charming English suburb, a young woman and her boyfriend disappear after partying at the massive country estate of a new college friend.

One year later, a writer moves into a cottage on the edge of the woods that border the same estate. Known locally as the Dark Place, the dense forest is the writer's favorite area for long walks and it's on one such walk that she stumbles upon a mysterious note that simply reads, "DIG HERE."

Could this be a clue towards what has happened to the missing young couple? And what exactly is buried in this haunted ground?

With her signature "rich, dark, and intricately twisted" (Ruth Ware, New York Times bestselling author) prose, Lisa Jewell has crafted a dazzling work of suspense that will keep on the edge of your seat until the final page.

"I love all Lisa's books, but The Night She Disappeared is her best thriller yet."--HARLAN COBEN, New York Times bestselling author of Win

"Lisa has certainly done it again with another first class mystery.

Totally enthralling."--HARRIET TYCE, author of Blood Orange

"Lisa Jewell is the kind of writer you read twice--once as a breathless reader to see how the story unfolds, and then again to see how she makes it look so easy."--ERIN KELLY, author of He Said, She Said

Praise for Invisible Girl:

"Lisa Jewell's latest edge-of-your-seat thriller stands out... [she] highlights how our views of the world and of others can often render us blind to what is truly going on around us... brilliant... deft ... surprising."-- "USA Today"

"Gripping, haunting, chilling."-- "Woman's World Magazine"

"I am always reminded of Ruth Rendell at her very best when I read Lisa Jewell. Not only is her plotting masterful, Lisa has the rare ability to make you care--passionately--about all her characters, whether they are important or minor, instantly appealing or apparently monstrous. Invisible Girl is quite brilliant in every way."--JANE CASEY, author of The Burning

"Full of twists you won't see coming."-- "PopSugar"

"I absolutely loved Invisible Girl--Lisa Jewell has a way of combining furiously twisty, utterly gripping plots with wonderfully rich characterisation--she has such compassion for her characters and we feel we know them utterly. To anyone who claims crime fiction is plot at the expense of character, I prescribe Lisa Jewell. A triumph!"--LUCY FOLEY, New York Times bestselling author of The Guest List

"This weekend I finished Lisa Jewell's gripping Invisible Girl and it was such a joy not to be able to put a book down. Her best yet."--JOJO MOYES, New York Times bestselling author of The Giver of Stars
