Bestselling authors Megan Miranda and Shari Lapena discuss their new books.
Join us for an evening with Megan Miranda and Shari Lapena when they discuss their new books.
Megan Miranda's new book is described as the perfect summer beach read. Such A Quiet Place is set in a seemingly idyllic neighborhood. Scratch the surface though, and there is deceit and viciousness festering inside the households of this community. Such A Quiet Place strikes an unnerving cord and will leave you wondering -- do you ever really know your neighbors?
With blockbuster novels such as All The Missing Girls, The Perfect Stranger, and The Last House Guest (a Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick), Miranda has established herself as a master of the suspense genre.
Shari Lapena's Not A Happy Family has it all: rich people behaving badly, sibling rivalry, twists, turns, red herrings, and, of course, a few murders interspersed. When Fred and Sheila Merton are savagely killed, their adult kids are devastated. Or are they? Lapena’s new book brings to life the world of the rich and powerful with the dysfunctional Merton family. In this family, everyone is keeping secrets. Even the dead.
Lapena is the internationally bestselling author of the thrillers The Couple Next Door, A Stranger in the House, An Unwanted Guest, Someone We Know, and The End of Her.
Megan Miranda and Shari Lapena will be joined in conversation with Mary Kubica, the bestselling author of suspense novels.
