"A smart, taut, mind-blowing thriller full of heartbreak and betrayal that moves along at breakneck speed. Readers will be obsessed!"
—Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of Just The Nicest Couple
Everybody lies. Even the ones you think you know best of all . . .

Olivia Bender designs exquisite home interiors that satisfy the most demanding clients. But her own deepest desire can't be fulfilled by marble counters or the perfect rug. She desperately wants to be a mother. Fertility treatments and IVF keep failing. And just when she feels she's at her lowest point, the police deliver shocking news to Olivia and her husband, Park.

DNA results show that the prime suspect in a murder investigation is Park's son. Olivia is relieved, knowing this is a mistake. Despite their desire, the Benders don't have any children. Then comes the confession. Many years ago, Park donated sperm to a clinic. He has no idea how many times it was sold—or how many children he has sired.

As the murder investigation goes deeper, more terrible truths come to light. With every revelation, Olivia must face the unthinkable. The man she married has fathered a killer. But can she hold that against him when she keeps such dark secrets of her own?

This twisting, emotionally layered thriller explores the lies we tell to keep a marriage together—or break each other apart . . .

      Julia Whelan navigates the emotional issue of infertility with empathy and compassion. She allows desperation into her voice as Olivia Bender's latest fertility treatment fails. Ironically, Olivia's husband was a sperm donor decades ago and has 28 offspring. Now, children who are curious about their parentage form a Facebook group, with DNA tests proving their relationships. One of them is a killer. Olivia feels betrayed by her spouse, but she also has secrets that could end her marriage. Whelan's skill in revealing them is impressive. As the chase for the killer progresses, Whelan adds tension by increasing her delivery speed. In an author's note, Ellison divulges her own infertility struggles, adding more emotional depth to the story. R.O. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
