From the instant New York Times bestselling author of The Last Flight and The Lies I Tell comes a dazzling new thriller.
June, 1975.
The Taylor family shatters in a single night when two teenage siblings are found dead in their own home. The only surviving sibling, Vincent, never shakes the whispers and accusations that he was the one who killed them. Decades later, the legend only grows as his career as a horror writer skyrockets.
Ghostwriter Olivia Dumont has spent her entire professional life hiding the fact that she is the only child of Vincent Taylor. Now on the brink of financial ruin, she's offered a job to ghostwrite her father's last book. What she doesn't know, though, is that this project is another one of his lies. Because it's not another horror novel he wants her to write.
After fifty years of silence, Vincent Taylor is finally ready to talk about what really happened that night in 1975.

This book was a slow burn for the first half and then it really picked up steam by the end and I couldn’t put it down!

That said, I wouldn’t really call The Ghostwriter a thriller or even suspense. It reads more like a mystery, with a slower build that takes its time getting to the big moments. It’s not fast-paced or full of shocking twists, but there’s still a solid payoff once the pieces start to fall into place.
I actually liked that slower pace, it let me really sit with the story and the characters. By the end, it hit with more emotional weight than I expected.
If you’re looking for a sharp, well written mystery that unfolds gradually but leaves an impression, this one’s worth picking up.
