ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED NOVELS OF 2023 • “A bravura feat of storytelling...daring and completely satisfying.” —James Patterson, #1 best-selling author
Told through the perspectives of Rachel, Cecilia, and Emily, The Quiet Tenant explores the psychological impact of Aidan’s crimes on the women in his life—and the bonds between those women that give them the strength to fight back. Both a searing thriller and an astute study of trauma, survival, and the dynamics of power, The Quiet Tenant is an electrifying debut thriller by a major talent.
