Bookseller recommendation
“I will add my voice to the chorus. I loved this book! For the characters, the story, the architecture, and family relationships. Brought beautifully to life by reader Julia Whelan, there is a murder, maybe, to be solved--and this kept me pacing around finding things to clean so I could keep listening -- but the deeper story is about the lives of the people closest to us and how little or much we know or understand. ”

“The Night We Lost Him is such a good read! I didn't want to put it down, but felt none of the anxiety or nail-biting tension that can often come with thrillers. It's atmospheric, insightful, and reflective - all while giving us an emotional mystery. While the book does focus on a kind of maybe murder mystery, it's also very much about who we are versus who we want to be, both publicly and privately. It's about the choices we make again and again and how we can change those choices and our path in life. It's a love story, but also a story about grief. Laura Dave's writing is lovely, the characters are wonderfully three-dimensional, and I loved the architectural bits as well. Highly recommend!”

“My first Laura Dave, and definitely not my last! A slow-burn mystery with stories of love & loss intertwined. It grabbed me from the start and I could not put down. Told in alternating timelines, Dave prompts readers to ponder if we really have to know someone to love them, and if those we love ever truly leave us. One of my favorites of the year! Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and The White Lotus! ”

An instant New York Times bestseller from the author of The Last Thing He Told Me
“Dave’s signature blend of twisty mystery, family drama, and moving love story is top-notch” (The Boston Globe) in this instant New York Times bestseller where estranged siblings chase a fifty-year-old family secret that shaped their father’s mysterious life—and death…
“Pulse pounding suspense and moving family drama” —People
“A master storyteller. You won’t want to miss this one.” —Harlan Coben
“The perfect mix of heart-pounding and heartfelt…Dave delivers yet another suspenseful page-turner that should be a book club staple for a long time to come.” —New York Post
Nora Noone’s father was many things to many people. To the public he was a self-made titan of industry, whose luxury boutique hotels were among the most coveted destinations in the world. To his three ex-wives, he was a loving yet distant family man who managed to keep his finances—and his families—separate. But, to Nora, he was always a mystery—especially after his suspicious death at his cliffside home.
Though the authorities insist there was no foul play, Nora and her estranged brother, Sam, believe otherwise. As they form an uneasy alliance to unpack the mystery, they start putting together the pieces of their father’s past and uncover a family secret that changes everything.
With Laura Dave’s “signature blend of pulse-pounding suspense” (People) and “trademark emotional heft” (New York Post), The Night We Lost Him is a “propulsive” (Oprah Daily) must-read, with a heartbreaking final twist you’ll never see coming.
Laura Dave is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of several novels, including The Last Thing He Told Me and Eight Hundred Grapes. Her novels have sold more than five million copies and have been translated into thirty-eight languages. She resides in Santa Monica, California.
