Half Moon Bay : a novel  Cover Image Book Book

Half Moon Bay : a novel / Alice LaPlante.

LaPlante, Alice, (author.).

Summary:

When your world has fallen apart, can you trust anyone? Even yourself? From the award-winning New York Times bestselling author of Turn of Mind comes Half Moon Bay, a "brooding suspense novel... dark and starkly beautiful" (Kirkus Reviews). Jane loses everything after her daughter is killed in a senseless car accident. Jane is devastated, but some time later makes a stab at a new life: she moves from Berkeley, California, to the tiny seaside town of Half Moon Bay. Although grief-stricken and alone, she starts to cobble together some version of a job, friends, and the possibility of peace. But just as slivers of a future life start to appear, little girls begin to disappear. Aching loss and fear surround her, and Jane sees her own pain reflected in all the parents in town. Disappearances continue, and soon Jane realizes her neighbors are wondering if it is Jane herself who has unleashed the horror of loss upon Half Moon Bay. With the same understanding of the human psyche that captivated readers of Turn of Mind, LaPalnte delivers an electrifying, twisted, and deeply satisfying page-turner that captures the devastation of loss and the power it has to consume the future.
