Home Is Where the Bodies Are
A New York Times and USA Today bestseller
From New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Marriage and You Shouldn't Have Come Here comes a chilling family thriller about the (sometimes literal) skeletons in the closet.
After their mother passes, three estranged siblings reunite to sort out her estate. Beth, the oldest, never left home. She stayed with her mom, caring for her until the very end. Nicole, the middle child, has been kept at arm's length due to her ongoing battle with a serious drug addiction. Michael, the youngest, lives out of state and hasn't been back to their small Wisconsin town since their father ran out on them seven years before.
While going through their parents' belongings, the siblings stumble upon a collection of home videos and decide to revisit those happier memories. However, the nostalgia is cut short when one of the VHS tapes reveals a night back in 1999 that none of them have any recollection of. On screen, their father appears covered in blood. What follows is a dead body and a pact between their parents to get rid of it, before the video abruptly ends.
Beth, Nicole, and Michael must now decide whether to leave the past in the past or uncover the dark secret their mother took to her grave.

I do wish I could have liked any of the characters more, Beth was probably the most worth rooting for, but she was so bitter even though many of her choices were her own, that she annoyed me at times too.
This was one of those popcorn books that's fun while reading it, as long as you don't look too closely. And I perfectly happy to enjoy those. This is my second Jeneva Rose book ( first was You Shoudln't Have Come Here -- which I shouldn't have read) but I'm not sure another will follow it. The latter half of the book was fine, but I need more at the beginning and it seems to be her style for a slow burn.
