Private investigator Rae Donovan’s relationship with her father is distant to the point of estrangement. But when she learns he’s dying in hospice, she drops everything to be at his side. By the time she arrives, he’s already too far gone to speak, and a doctor says his death is consistent with poisoning.

As she scours his isolated Adirondack home for clues, she discovers a hidden room filled with surveillance equipment, weapons, and a safe full of cash—maybe her father wasn’t the unassuming retiree she’d imagined. Rae must decide whether knowing the full truth about her family is worth the danger of tracking it down.

Praise

“Rae may be a private investigator, but she’s never figured out why her father was so distant and unapproachable. After his death, when she discovers evidence that he’s been leading a double life, Rae realizes that maybe he kept his distance all this time in order to protect her. Like a grittier version of The Last Thing He Told Me, this short mystery from New York Times bestselling author Lisa Unger questions whether we ever really know the truth about our own families.”
