In March of 2020, many began the social isolation of the pandemic with realistic ideas of how to stay busy. Especially those not working remotely. Cleaning closets and purging collectibles were high on the lists. Some even thought to locate new walks or hiking areas. I used the first two or three months as though I was on a staycation: I read, streamed movies, walked, and took daytime naps. As my seventy-fifth birthday rolled around and my sons planned a virtual birthday celebration over an entire week, I wrote an essay about having a momentous birthday during a pandemic; it was not something I could look up online. It gained a life of its own; I wrote an essay on one of the publications I submit to. Somehow almost like magic, a manuscript crept into my mind, perhaps during a nap! The book is a realistic, humorous, and raw insight into the pandemic; it is sad and emblematic, given the author's frenetic and fractured growing-up years. Readers will love the unique voice--one minute triumphant, another dark and foreboding, but always with a survivor's wink. All who read this book will appreciate those winks and consider their own experiences, which affect their real lives. Spring and summer are approaching; millions have been vaccinated, so pull up a chair on the beach, in the park, add a chilled drink of choice, and enjoy this read.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Prepare to be swept away by a talented debut author with a passionate, powerful story to tell. They meet on a beach. . . . Abby Davis isn’t wearing a skimpy bikini or sipping umbrella drinks, not when she’s busy chasing around four little ones. And Matt McKinney isn’t looking for fun—he’s a Navy SEAL, a grown man with a long list of missions . . . and fallen brothers. They only have a week. . . . Abby has brought her children to this beach to start over, to give them the enjoyable memories they deserve. Matt’s been sidelined by a combat injury, and haunted by the best friend he lost and the promise he made: to remain a SEAL—focused and dedicated. This leaves no time for what he’s always wanted: a family. But a week is all it takes. . . . Matt opens her heart while Abby soothes his soul. And though they plan to say good-bye when the week is over, something magical happens on that beach, something neither can forget. Something utterly, completely worth falling for.

A chilling, compulsively readable novel of psychological suspense from the author of Little Face and The Carrier Sally Thorning is watching the news with her husband when she hears a name she never thought she'd hear again: Mark Bretherick. It's a name she shouldn't recognize. Last year, a work trip Sally had planned was canceled at the last minute. Desperate for a break from juggling her job and a young family, Sally didn't tell her husband that the trip had fallen through. Instead, she treated herself to a secret vacation in a remote hotel. While she was there, Sally met a man—Mark Bretherick. All the details are the same: where he lives, his job, his wife Geraldine and daughter Lucy. Except that the photograph on the news is of a man Sally has never seen before. And Geraldine and Lucy Bretherick are both dead... With the international bestseller Little Face, Sophie Hannah established herself as a striking new voice in psychological suspense. The Wrong Mother, a riveting exploration of a mother's unspeakable betrayal, confirms her reputation as a master of the form.
