Two-time Mary Higgins Clark Award-winning author!
A chilling story set in a former Magdalen Laundry in Manhattan that explores today’s #MeToo complexities.
"In a twisting, mesmerizing story that is as beautifully written as it is utterly propulsive, Goodman keeps us breathlessly turning the pages right to the shocking and poignant end. I absolutely loved this layered and moving novel!” (Lisa Unger, New York Times best-selling author)
You’re never really alone
Journalist Joan Lurie has written a seething article exposing a notorious newspaper tycoon as a sexual predator. But the night it goes live, she is brutally attacked. Traumatized and suffering the effects of a concussion, she moves into a highly secure apartment in Manhattan called the Refuge, which was at one time a Magdalen Laundry. Joan should be safe here, so how can she explain the cryptic incidents that are happening?
Lillian Day is Joan’s new 96-year-old neighbor at the Refuge. In 1941, Lillian witnessed a mysterious murder that sent her into hiding at the Magdalen Laundry, and she hasn’t come out since. As she relates to Joan her harrowing story, Joan sees striking similarities to her own past.
Melissa Osgood, newly widowed and revengeful, has burning questions about her husband’s recent death. When she discovers a suspicious paper trail that he left behind, she realizes how little she knew about her marriage. But it seems Joan Lurie might be the one who has the answers.
As these three lives intersect, each woman must stay one step ahead of those who are desperate to make sure the truth is never uncovered.

I really enjoyed this audio recording. I don't think that I have read this author before. I liked the different story lines and the 2 narrators (narrators in the story, not the reader). I particularly liked the story about Rose and Lillian in the '40s. My only problem was that there were 2 questions that I felt were unanswered.
1: Who pretended to be Barbara? Was it Wally?
2: Atherton Cass's death was revealed to be murder and. not suicide, did Melissa get the life insurance $?
