What to expect

A small town. Big secrets. A brand new gripping standalone thriller from Sunday Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner.

The Dixon family house was once a crown jewel of the White Mountains. Perched on a cliff with breathtaking views, it promised summer adventures, winter skiing, and family gatherings around a roaring log fire.

Until late one August night, when both parents and their four children vanished, leaving behind a trail of bloody footprints, and a mystery that has endured for generations.

Thirty years later, the grand mansion is stirring back to life. For Raquel and Theo Collins, restoring their new home represents a fresh start after a terrible tragedy.

For Amanda Grady, the recently appointed police chief of Shereford, it’s good to see a fresh start for the derelict house.

But a new family in the old home can only mean one thing: the past has returned with a vengeance.

When a stray dog arrives and discovers a skeleton on the property, Raquel and Theo face a daunting choice of what to believe, who to trust, and how to survive.

Because in the tiny village of Shereford the time has come. A town, a couple, a cop must all work together to unravel the terrifying events that happened one night thirty years ago, or…

They will all be sorry.

A chilling, gripping thriller. Don't miss this one!
Lisa Jewell
Deep in the woods of New England, an entire family has disappeared without a trace, leaving behind their bloody footprints... and the mystery only intensifies from there. You'll Be Sorry is about a town's darkest secrets and the very real danger that ensues when its long-buried skeletons begin to resurface. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough!
