'A beautifully written mystery, packed with unforgettable characters' JANE HARPER 'Contender for thriller of the year' SUNDAY EXPRESS 'An accomplished and moving story of crime, punishment, love and redemption' GUARDIAN For fans of Jane Harper's The Dry comes a powerful novel about the lengths we will go to keep our family safe. This is a story about good and evil and how life is lived somewhere in between. Thirty years ago, Vincent King became a killer. Now, he's been released from prison and is back in his hometown of Cape Haven, California. Not everyone is pleased to see him. Like Star Radley, his ex-girlfriend, and sister of the girl he killed. Duchess Radley, Star's thirteen-year-old daughter, is part-carer, part-protector to her younger brother, Robin - and to her deeply troubled mother. But in trying to protect Star, Duchess inadvertently sets off a chain of events that will have tragic consequences not only for her family, but also the whole town. Murder, revenge, retribution. How far can we run from the past, when the past seems doomed to repeat itself?

Chris Whitaker es un escritor británico reconocido principalmente por sus novelas de suspense y drama contemporáneo. Antes de dedicarse por completo a la escritura, trabajó durante varios años como agente financiero en Londres. Posteriormente, decidió cambiar su carrera para enfocarse en la literatura, lo que le permitió desarrollar un estilo propio caracterizado por tramas intensas y personajes complejos.

Su primera novela, Tall Oaks, le valió premios importantes y fue muy bien recibida por la crítica. Sin embargo, fue con We Begin at the End que alcanzó un éxito internacional, convirtiéndose en bestseller y ganando varios galardones literarios. Esta obra destaca por su mezcla de suspense con temas profundos como el trauma, la redención y las relaciones humanas. Además, su narrativa ha sido adaptada para la pantalla, aumentando aún más su popularidad.

En 2024 publicó All the Colours of the Dark, otra novela que reafirma su capacidad para crear historias atrapantes y emotivas. Chris Whitaker vive en Hertfordshire con su familia y continúa escribiendo, explorando en sus obras las complejidades emocionales de sus personajes enmarcadas en tramas de misterio y tensión.
