Publisher's summary

"An unputdownable and gripping thriller with nonstop twists and turns!"—Freida McFadden, New York Times bestselling author of The Housemaid

The next riveting summer suspense by the bestselling author of THE BLOCK PARTY, Jamie Day.

Could this reunion be the death of them?

The Precipice is a legendary family-owned hotel on the rocky coast of Maine. With the recent passing of their father, the Bishop sisters—Iris, Vicki, and Faith—have come for the weekend to claim it. But with a hurricane looming and each of the Bishop sisters harboring dangerous secrets, there's murder in the air—and not everyone who checks into the Precipice will be checking out.

Each sister wants what is rightfully hers, and in the mix is the Precipe's nineteen-year-old chambermaid Charley Kelley: smart, resilient, older than her years, and in desperate straits.

The arrival of the Bishop sisters could spell disaster for Charley. Will they close the hotel? Fire her? Discover her habit of pilfering from guests? Or even worse, learn that she's using a guest room to hide a woman on the run.

With razor-sharp wit, heart, thrills, and twists, Jamie Day's ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY delivers a unique brand of summertime suspense.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Nonstop action

This was a great book that was very suspenseful, but was also very entertaining. Support part is a narrator was amazing. She did a great job with all the different voices and had a lot of character in her presentation.

And I loved The Block Party so much

It takes a lot for me to DNF a book, print or audio, but I couldn’t make it through this one. I was bored and didn’t enjoy it at all. The Block Party was a fun read with interesting characters and engaging story, so I didn’t hesitate to buy this one. I will note that I read The Block Party and listened to One Big Happy Family but I don’t think that made much difference.

lost time

I lost time I'll never get back from listening to this trash. The writing was awful, the story line was weak and predictable. The writer explained too many things perhaps thinking the reader is dumb. This was my first real disappointment with an audible pick.
