"An Agatha Christie vibe make[s] this whodunit an excellent beach read"( Library Journal ). Discover secrets, scandal, and a suspected killer--all on one street in this gripping suspense from New York Times bestselling author and "master of misdirection and sudden plot twists," ( Booklist ) Megan Miranda. Welcome to Hollow's Edge, where you can find secrets, scandal, and a suspected killer--all on one street. Hollow's Edge use to be a quiet place. A private and idyllic neighborhood where neighbors dropped in on neighbors, celebrated graduation and holiday parties together, and looked out for one another. But then came the murder of Brandon and Fiona Truett. A year and a half later, Hollow's Edge is simmering. The residents are trapped, unable to sell their homes, confronted daily by the empty Truett house, and suffocated by their trial testimonies that implicated one of their own. Ruby Fletcher. And now, Ruby's back. With her conviction overturned, Ruby waltzes right back to Hollow's Edge, and into the home she shared with Harper Nash. Harper, five years older, has always treated Ruby like a wayward younger sister. But now she's terrified. What possible good could come of Ruby returning to the scene of the crime? And how can she possibly turn her away, when she knows Ruby has nowhere to go? Within days, suspicion spreads like a virus across Hollow's Edge. It's increasingly clear that not everyone told the truth about the night of the Truetts' murders. And when Harper begins receiving threatening notes, she realizes she has to uncover the truth before someone else becomes the killer's next victim. Pulsating with suspense and with Megan Miranda's trademark shocking twists, Such a Quiet Place is Megan Miranda's best novel yet--a "powerful, paranoid thriller" ( Booklist , starred review) that will keep you turning the pages late into the night.

Ruby Fletcher was incarcerated over 14 months ago for the murders of Brandon and Fiona Truett, after the rural and tight-knit community of Hollow's Edge came together with the evidence to convict her.
So why would she choose to come straight back to Lake Hollow after her conviction was overturned, and what secrets has she been holding onto all this time?
Miranda is the queen of the slow reveal, and I was not disappointed in my expectation of layered surprises and multiple "Aha!" moments.
Once again, she layed out a brilliantly three dimensional cast of characters each of whom I couldn't help loving, hating and suspecting alternately.
I loved the small-neighborhood intimate setting of Such a Quiet Place and the fantastic irony that something so terrible can only happen somewhere as safe and insulated as Hollow's Edge, where people trust each other and nothing much ever happens.
Surface level relationships and the desire to fit in and look good always lead to white lies and open secrets. Harper and Ruby's story is just an overflow of that truth.
Harper's character drove me up a wall, because she was too real. Not the strong, determined heroine we want her to be, but a reflection of ourselves - a little unsure, a little scared, desperate to make the right choice, but too easily influenced and won over. She
made so many choices that made me want to shake her, but also resonated as the choice I might make were I in her shoes. Never fully open, never fully confident. Frustrating, but realistic.
I truly enjoyed this story, and rate it with The Girl From Widow Hills, which I loved last year. The sense of place and culture were spot on, and the intrigue kept me guessing all the way through. I flew through this book and would recommend it to thriller and mystery readers wholeheartedly. I look forward to many more stories from Megan Miranda!
