Dr. Margaret Richter has it all. She’s rich, thanks to her best-selling self-help books. She has a beautiful home in Cape Cod overlooking the beach. And she has a monthly book club that everyone is dying to get invited to. Literally. Because behind the crystal wine glasses, the fine linens and the catered hors d'oeuvres lies a tangled web of secrets, of deceit, of murder. No member of the book club is innocent—and many are guilty. And the person with the most to hide is Margaret Richter herself.

Bienvenidos a Stanhope. Un barrio seguro... y perfecto para las familias. William Wooler es, a primera vista, un padre y marido entregado. Pero ha estado teniendo una aventura que esa misma tarde ha tenido un horrible final en un motel de las afueras. Cuando regresa a casa, destrozado y enfadado, se sorprende al ver que Avery, su hija de nueve años, ha salido antes de la escuela y pierde los estribos.

El tranquilo y lujoso barrio de Brecken Hill amanece conmocionado. Solo las grandes fortunas se pueden permitir una casa aquí y hay pocas fortunas mayores que la de Fred y Sheila Merton. Pero todo el dinero del mundo no puede protegerlos cuando la muerte llama a su puerta. Los Merton han aparecido brutalmente asesinados tras una tensa cena con sus tres hijos. Quienes, por supuesto, están devastados.

Fairhill est une petite ville calme du Vermont. Les parents savent que leurs enfants rentreront sains et saufs de l'école ou du vieux cimetière où les adolescents se réunissent pour se raconter des histoires de fantômes. Pourtant, ce soir-là, Diana Brewer ne dort pas paisiblement dans son lit. Elle repose dans un champ des alentours, sauvagement assassinée...

On verrouille les portes à double tour et les habitants de la petite communauté rurale s'espionnent derrière leurs rideaux...

Hasta el día en que Sam recibe una llamada en su despacho porque Bryden no ha recogido a su hija de la guardería. Al llegar a casa con la niña, encuentra el coche de su mujer en el garaje. En el apartamento, el portátil de Bryden está abierto sobre la mesa, su móvil al lado, las llaves en su sitio habitual en la entrada.

En el somnoliento pueblo de Fairhill nunca pasa nada. Pero esta mañana todo eso va a cambiar.Porque Diana Brewer no está durmiendo dulcemente en su cama. Su cuerpo yace sin vida en un campo de heno rodeado de buitres. Así de rápido una chica se convierte en un fantasma. Y así una ciudad de rostros familiares y amables se transforma en un nido de sospechosos, en un lugar de miedo y paranoia.
