Come Home

From the New York Times–bestselling author of Think Twice comes an explosive novel about a woman faced with the ultimate choice: should she help someone from her past at the expense of her future?

"The pace is relentless, the twists are jaw-dropping . . . Scottoline is a powerhouse." —David Baldacci

Jill Farrow is a suburban mom who has finally gotten her and her daughter's lives back on track after a divorce. She loves being a pediatrician and is about to remarry, while her daughter, Megan, is a happily over-scheduled thirteen-year-old. But Jill's life is turned upside down when her ex-stepdaughter, Abby, shows up and delivers shocking news: Jill's ex-husband is dead. Abby insists that he was murdered-and pleads with Jill to help find his killer. Jill reluctantly agrees to make a few inquiries, and soon discovers that the story doesn't add up . . . As she digs deeper, her actions threaten to rip apart her new family, destroy their hard-earned happiness, and even endanger her own life. Yet how can Jill turn her back on a child she loves and once called her own? What are the limits of love, loss, and family?

"This thrilling testament to a mother's relentless love may well be Scottoline's best novel to date." —Library Journal (starred review)
