It’s the night we never talk about.
It’s the story the world wants to hear.
But this isn’t the story of that night. This is the story of us.
Together, Edward and Isabel move to London. They are young and in love, occupied by friends, work and fun. But late on a spring evening when they are thirty years old, their home is invaded by a serial killer. In the wake of this violation, each tries to come to terms with a night that changed everything—and their marriage begins to crumble.
Twenty-five years later, their tormentor is caught, and Edward and Isabel reunite for his sentencing. Isabel has waited years for the man who nearly ended her life to be brought to justice. Edward has tried to think about anything else. As they prepare to deliver impact statements in the public eye, it is time to revisit their love story. Will they finally be able to confront the secrets, longings and lies that tore them apart?
Or will the horror of that night be the death of them?
A captivating portrait of a marriage and its implosion, The Death of Us digs into the stories we tell ourselves about love—and everything love can bear.

Anna first fell in love with London at her hometown library—its Jane Austen balls a far cry from her life of food stamps and hand-me-downs. But when she finally arrives after college, the real London is a moldy flat and the same paycheck-to-paycheck grind—that fairy-tale life still out of reach. Then Anna meets the Wilders, who fly her to Saint-Tropez to tutor their teenage daughter. Swept up by the sphinx-like elder sister, Anna soon finds herself plunged into a heady whirlpool of parties and excess, a place where confidence is a birthright.

Critic reviews
“Abigail Dean has already proven to be a skilled observer of ordinary humans in extraordinary circumstances, and her latest is her most affecting study yet.”
—CrimeReads (Most Anticipated list)
“Dean transforms tragedy into art with surgical prose and a steely gaze. It’s a triumph.” —Publisher's Weekly (starred review)
“In a sea of thrillers that feel dishearteningly similar or too reliant on shocking twists, this book stands out, not only for its propulsive energy but also for its riveting, unorthodox examination of the devastating aftermath of violence.”

Abigail Dean understands human psychology like so many authors try to do but fail all the time!
I love how Abigail Dean can make the most mundane parts of marriage and life take on a deeper and suspenseful meaning than other authors are able to do.

Absolutely fantastic - 6 stars
Where do I start? This book was simply gripping. It tells a tale of a couple who survived a home invader and how it impacted them over the years. But it also tracked the hunt for the serial killer and described all of the people that worked to track him down. As someone who loves thriller books, this kept my interest, but the real story here was a love story between a couple. But the way it was told was so honest and relatable that I could not put this down. I don’t remember getting through a book this fast. The narration was simply superb. I would highly recommend this book.
