From New York Times bestselling author and two-time Mary Higgins Clark Award winner Carol Goodman comes a haunting psychological thriller that will keep you turning pages late into the night.
When a new virus emerges, Lucy Harper and her husband Reed escape to his family’s private island off the Maine coast, seeking safety with their closest friends. But isolation brings its own dangers. As Lucy delves into the island’s dark past—a history steeped in quarantine, typhus, and death—she begins to question everything: her memories, her marriage, and her own sanity.
The past refuses to stay buried. Strange symbols appear in the woods. Accidents become increasingly sinister. And Lucy can’t shake the feeling that someone in their tight-knit group is harboring deadly intentions. Is the island truly haunted by the souls of those who died there? Or is a living threat hiding in plain sight?
Perfect for fans of The Woman in Cabin 10 and Lucy Foley’s locked-room mysteries, The Disinvited Guest masterfully blends Gothic atmosphere with contemporary psychological suspense. Goodman expertly weaves together themes of pandemic trauma, toxic friendships, and family secrets against the backdrop of Maine’s rugged, unforgiving coastline.
If you’re drawn to stories where isolation breeds paranoia and every character has something to hide, this atmospheric thriller deserves a spot on your shelf. Just don’t plan on sleeping with the lights off.
Goodman is a master of atmospheric suspense, and The Disinvited Guest is no exception. A twisty, turny thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end.
Goodman expertly ratchets up the tension in this clever locked-room mystery set during a pandemic.
A chilling tale of isolation and paranoia that feels especially resonant in our post-pandemic world.
Goodman delivers another page-turner with gothic atmosphere and modern psychological suspense.
