Girl in the Dark

In the vein of The Good Girl and The Girl on the Train comes internationally bestselling author Marion Pauw's GIRL IN THE DARK, a domestic thriller about a long-lost brother convicted of a horrifying crime and a sister's fight to clear his name. Iris is a successful lawyer and single mother trying desperately to keep it all together with a full and colorful caseload, a young son with behavior issues, and a judgmental mother constantly critiquing her. When by coincidence Iris stumbles across a deep family secret: her brother Ray Boelens. Surprised and confused why her mother would hide her sibling from her, Iris begins to search for long-buried truths, and discovers her older brother is autistic and in jail for brutally murdering his neighbor and her daughter. Horrified, Iris goes to visit Ray and finds a man who loves his saltwater fish tank, baking bread, and looks so much like her own son. She meets a man whose naivete unnerves her. Ray is odd and obsessive, unable to communicate like the rest of us-but is he really a killer? Told from both Ray and Iris's points of view, GIRL IN THE DARK is a page-turning thriller about lies, murder, and the tenacity of a family staying together despite being pulled apart at the seams.
