Silverhill

From a New York Times–bestselling author: A woman risks her life to piece together the puzzling past of her estranged New England family.

After decades away, Malinda Rice returns to the New Hampshire estate of Silverhill to make sure her departed mother is buried in her rightful place in the family plot. Still carrying the scars of her past, she’s determined to solve the mysteries behind the bad blood that has divided her family. But, like old memories, Malinda is not welcome at Silverhill.

She faces her embittered grandmother, a manipulative tyrant to be feared and never crossed. And her disturbed aunt is lost in a fantasy world, desperate to be rescued. Malinda finds solace with the handsome family doctor, whom she discovers is the only person she can trust, however guarded. The secrets in this deceptive hall of mirrors run deeper and darker than she imagined. Now, while seeking the truth in a mansion haunted by lies, twisted memories, and ruined lives, she must also fight for her sanity—and her life.

Hailed by Mary Higgins Clark as “a superb and gifted story teller, and a master of suspense,” Phyllis A. Whitney is a recipient of the Mystery Writers of America Grand Master Award for Lifetime Achievement.

This ebook features an illustrated biography of Phyllis A. Whitney including rare images from the author’s estate.
