Über diesen Titel

In this riveting psychological thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of All the Wrong Places, a dementia patient reveals a deadly secret—and one woman must decide whether to believe her.

“An epic murder mystery . . . This novel is a delight, tugging at your heartstrings as it explores the grief, insecurities, and beauty that come with aging.”—Oprah Daily (Best Books of the Fall)


Reeling from her husband’s death and best friend’s dementia diagnosis, seventy-six-year-old Linda Davidson feels lost and alone. Her beloved daughter Kleo and son-in-law Mick have moved into her house to keep her company, but the constant bickering quickly turns their presence into yet another worry on Linda’s long list.

Eager to escape the tension at home, Linda goes to visit her friend at Legacy Place, a memory care facility for the elderly, where she meets Jenny Cooper, a ninety-two-year-old dementia patient who makes a shocking confession: she kills people.

Linda dismisses the so-called secret as the confusion of an ailing mind, but Jenny seems strangely lucid during their visits as she recounts stories of her many victims—mostly men who hurt her. Then a fellow patient at Legacy Place dies. Everyone else sees it as the natural death of a sick old man, but Linda can’t help but wonder: is there any chance Jenny’s telling the truth?

Kritikerstimmen

“An epic murder mystery . . . This novel is a delight, tugging at your heartstrings as it explores the grief, insecurities, and beauty that come with aging.”Oprah Daily (Best Books of the Fall)

“Enough suspense to keep readers turning the pages so quickly that they risk paper cuts . . . another fine novel from this talented storyteller.”Booklist

“Death, dementia, marital problems, abuse and humor . . . While they don’t seem to go together, in Fielding’s extremely capable hands, they combine for a delightfully fascinating read.”Bookreporter

“Excellent . . . This is an intense novel you do not want to put down. Joy Fielding has written another winner.”Red Carpet Crash

“[Joy] Fielding’s excellent latest nestles a murder mystery inside a witty novel of friendship and loss. . . . Punchy, surprising, and sweet in equal measure, this tale of twisted sisterhood is a home run.”Publishers Weekly, starred review

Das Buch lebt von dem Cliffhanger im Titel und ist ansonsten eine Mischung aus langweiligen, vorhersehbaren Wendungen und Stereotypen, Schimpfwörtern, abgehalfterten Klischees und - für den „shades of grey“ Voyeur : sexuellen Altersfantasien. Es ist so schlecht, dass man denken könnte, einer KI wurden ein paar Schlagwörter gefüttert…

Nicht kaufen: Das war mit Abstand das schlechteste Buch, das ich in den letzten 5 Jahren gelesen habe!!!
