“Stunning. Fiendishly plotted with whiplash twists and turns — Shari Lapena is at the very top of her game here. [She Didn't See It Coming] might be my favorite yet!” —Lucy Foley
The new gripping novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next Door
When a beloved wife and mother disappears, a luxurious condo building transforms into a potential crime scene, and the investigation begins: can the detectives find her before it's too late?
Bryden and Sam have it all: thriving careers, a smart apartment in a luxury condominium, supportive friends and a cherished daughter. The perfect life for the perfect couple.
Then Sam receives a call at his office. Bryden – working from home that day – has failed to collect their daughter from daycare. Arriving home with their little girl, he finds his wife’s car in the underground garage. Upstairs in their apartment her laptop is open on the table, her cell phone nearby, her keys in their usual place in the hall.
Except Bryden is nowhere to be seen. It’s as if she just walked out.
How can she have disappeared from her own home? And did she even leave the building at all?
With every minute that passes – and as questions swirl around their community – Bryden and Sam’s past seems a little less perfect, their condominium less safe, their friends, neighbors and relatives no longer quite so reliable . . .

So many suspects, so little evidence in Lapena's latest tale of domestic suspense. Busy mom Bryden Frost doesn't see it coming after a morning fender bender involving a Tesla and its charming owner, Derek Gardner, sets her on a collision course with fate. Or does it? Just as in her other fast-moving, women-centric novels, including her breakoutThe Couple Next Door (2016), Lapena's female protagonists appear to be living normal lives that some people might even envy--at least at first. When Bryden's husband, Sam, returns home from work in Albany, New York, to find her missing but her purse and phone still in their apartment, a police investigation ensues. Did Bryden run away? Was she kidnapped? Or could she still be somewhere in the building? Sam is the prime suspect until police Det. Jayne Salter and her team hear from a source that Bryden was having an affair with Derek, something he denies. As Lapena builds her twisty plot, we soon see that these two men aren't the only people who could be responsible for Bryden's disappearance. Her sister, Lizzie, who has always been jealous of Bryden, has an addiction she's hiding from the police, and Bryden's best friend, Paige, carries a damaging secret as well. And what about the neighbor who was recently accused but not charged with kidnapping and raping a woman? Lapena excavates everyone's secrets, exposing what's really going on in the lives of Bryden's family and friends. None of it is pretty. Lapena's timely tale mixes the formidable dangers involved with online true-crime addiction with classic police work in a story that will make you wonder what secrets your family and friends are hiding and who, if anyone, you really know or can trust. Lapena's talents shine in this irresistible novel about revenge, betrayal, and secrets.COPYRIGHT(2025) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Sam and Bryden Frost seem like the perfect couple--attractive, happily married, with a cute kid, good jobs, an expensive lifestyle, and nice friends. But their pleasant world evaporates when Bryden disappears. Her purse and phone are still in the condo. There are no odd withdrawals from her bank account. She and Sam seemed happy together. Detective Jayne Salter is assigned to the case, and based on past experience, the first person she suspects is the traumatized Sam. But there's no concrete evidence that Sam murdered his wife. According to friends and family, Sam and Bryden were devoted to each other. However, as Jayne digs deeper, she unearths dark and shocking secrets--affairs, betrayals, abuse, drug use, lies, murder for gain, sociopaths, and a dangerous group of internet "amateur sleuths" out for fame and acceptance. Every new discovery makes Bryden's murder more horrifying, but Jayne is determined to solve the case. A twisting, gripping, gruesome read with dark undertones, unrelenting psychological suspense, and a shocking conclusion that will stay with readers long after they've finished the book.COPYRIGHT(2025) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
