11.2.2019 - The Family Upstairs

The Family Upstairs

Many thanks to NetGalley, Atria Books and Lisa Jewell for the opportunity to read and review her latest thriller - this author is a must-read for me and she keeps getting better!  5 stars for a creepy read!

Libby has just turned 25 and receives the envelope she's been waiting for - the letter from an attorney telling her about the trust she is now allowed to access and the history of her biological family.  She discovers that she is the sole heir to a million-dollar mansion in London.  However, she's not the only one who has been waiting for Libby's 25th birthday.  Twenty-five years ago, Libby's parents were found dead in the home, Libby safe in her crib, and the two older siblings gone.

The story is told from 3 points of view - Libby, Lucy and Henry.  Lucy is basically a homeless single mother of two with a calendar note on her phone letting her know about Libby's 25th birthday.  We learn the backstory of Henry, one of the teenagers who went missing.  Enough said - this is a suspenseful read and another solid book from Lisa Jewell!
