The Overnight Guest by Heather Gudenkauf
This
Tuesday the 25th is Happy Pub Day to Heather Gudenkauf! I’m so appreciative of
the publisher, Park Row Books, for inviting me to be part of the blog tour for
one of my favorite authors.
In
a snowstorm, the safest place is home. Or is it?
True
crime writer Wylie Lark doesn’t mind being snowed in at the isolated farmhouse
where she’s retreated to write her new book. A cozy fire, complete silence. It
would be perfect, if not for the fact that decades earlier, at this very house,
two people were murdered in cold blood and a girl disappeared without a trace.
As the storm worsens, Wylie finds herself trapped inside the house, haunted by the secrets contained within its walls—haunted by secrets of her own. Then she discovers a small child in the snow just outside. How long had the child been there? Where did he come from? Bringing the child inside for warmth and safety, she begins to search for answers. But soon it becomes clear that the farmhouse isn’t as isolated as she thought, and someone is willing to do anything to find them.
Review
Heather
Gudenkauf is one of my go-to authors. I don't even need to know what the book
is about to want to read it. I love her writing style and ability to keep you
guessing. This book was no exception. It is told in four parts that change from
the present to the past and between characters. It was very easy to follow but
I kept wondering how the stories were connected. Of course it came to a
thrilling end.
As an Iowan I like reading books set in Iowa. This book is set in a small town in northwestern Iowa. I like reading about real towns that I know! Heather wrote another great book that will keep you guessing until the very end!
