Agent: Jane Dystel, Dystel, Goderich & Bourret. Vivid prose and well-drawn characters keep the pages turning. If Juno is right in what she thinks is going on, she will have saved a child and redeemed herself if she’s wrong, it could cost her and others their lives. Reverting to her old ways, she involves herself in a dangerous game of cat and mouse surrounding Winnie, a missing young woman, and the woman’s baby. Eventually, Juno uncovers a sinister family secret. Much like the social-media perfect families that capture adoration, Winnie and Nigel Crouch live in a stately Seattle home. She makes the crawl space her new home, where, undetected, she can overhear Winnie and Nigel quarreling. In real life, some of these families are probably just as troubled as the one depicted in The Wrong Family, Tarryn Fisher’s end-of-2020 release. From the wickedly dark mind of best-selling author Tarryn Fisher, The Wrong Family is a taut new thriller that’s riddled with twists in all the right places. When the workers return, she hides in a closet, where she discovers a trap door that leads to a large crawl space. One day, Juno can’t resist sneaking into Sam’s house, which his parents, Winnie and Nigel, are renovating, while the workers are out. Now, at 67, she sleeps on a bench in a Seattle park, where she meets and befriends 12-year-old Sam Crouch. Juno Holland, the protagonist of this gripping psychological thriller from Fisher ( The Wives), was once a successful psychologist, until her penchant for getting too involved in her patients’ lives led to her losing her practice and her home.
