On the 25th anniversary of Caroline Winterfield’s disappearance, her three former best friends reunite at the now-restored Haven Cliff mansion, where a new murder forces them to confront buried secrets, shattered friendships, and the possibility that Caroline might still be alive. Original.

On the anniversary of a teen’s disappearance, three friends face a deadly hometown reunion in this twisty suspense novel by a New York Times bestselling author.

On prom night, Caroline Winterfield walked away from the ruins of an abandoned mansion called Haven Cliff and into the woods…never to be seen again. Only her three best friends know what really happened. But a secret is a secret, and a promise is a promise—even when it shatters lifelong friendships.

On the twenty-fifth anniversary of that night, Midge, Kelly, and Talia reunite at Haven Cliff, now a gleaming architectural jewel. But they aren’t alone. Someone is watching. Someone who knows what really happened to Caroline—and to the man who now lies dead a stone’s throw from where she was last seen.

Police detective Midge knows she’s dealing with a murder the moment she sees the item clutched in his lifeless hand. Only three other people in the world would grasp its significance. That means Kelly and Talia are either involved or in danger, because Caroline is long gone…or is she?

Windfall

A winning lottery ticket, a haunted California mansion, and raging wildfires provide the tense and atmospheric backdrop for Wendy Corsi Staubs riveting and engrossing new thriller. I devoured this novel about the price of friendship and the things well do for love and money in one breathless sitting. Rocket-paced and full of unexpected twists, Windfall is a knockout! A summer must-read! Lisa Unger, New York Times bestselling author of Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six

I couldnt turn the pages of Windfall fast enough in this twisty thriller that has it allthree friends who wrongly assumed they knew each others secrets, a life-changing lottery ticket that could change their complicated lives for better (or worse), all in a Gothic setting on deadly cliffs shrouded by smoke from California wildfires. Nail biting, tense, and richin more ways than one! Sarah Strohmeyer, bestselling author of We Love to Entertain

A tense and moving exploration of womens friendships and lives. Reading Windfall is like winning the lottery of suspense writing! Carol Goodman, New York Times bestselling and award-winning author of The Bones of the Story

When money and old secrets collide, someone has to pay. It all comes due at Windfall. Compelling, atmospheric, and deliciously twisted. Suspense at its finest. James LEtoile, award-winning author of Dead Drop

Masterful and utterly compelling, Windfall is an examination of four scarred women and how the dreamlike opportunity for them to escape the unique, richly layered complications of their lives is hardly an escape at all. Staub lands every aching and triumphant emotional moment she aims for and, as the novel rushes forward, delivers a master class in page-turning suspense. Destined to be revered by readers and studied by aspiring and experienced writers alike, Windfall is the work of an author at the top of her game, showcasing all of her considerable skills. E.A. Aymar, bestselling author of No Home for Killers

Whats scarier than a small slip of paper holding a billion-dollar lottery win to be split between three old friends? Add in a haunted mansion on a Pacific cliff surrounded by California wildfires, no phone/internet service, and youll get a scream in the night and someone going missing. This is not just a perfect table setting of mystery elements; its also a complex story of three womens lives, old college friends who find themselves lost in midlife, wondering what happened to all their youthful dreams and desires. Wendy Corsi Staub is at her best with Windfall, keeping the reader on edge to find out who really wins it all in life and whose luck has run out.

Wendy Corsi Staub has always been one of my favorite writers, but she surpasses even her best work with The Other Family. A chilling and addictive novel of suspense, it also speaks deep truths about family tiesand how they can support or destroy us. I really loved this book. Alison Gaylin, author of The Collective

Dark, twisty, and irresistible, The Other Family is domestic suspense turned up to eleven, the gripping tale of one familys cross-country move to Brooklynand the explosive revelations that follow when one woman is finally forced to reckon with her past.
