What The Amalfi Coast Held

When a text from an old friend pulls Claire Harmon to the Amalfi Coast, she expects to untangle a murder. She doesn't expect to untangle herself. Jess has been stranded in Praiano for three weeks — foreign nationals under Carabinieri investigation, going nowhere, the fast ferry to Positano just down the coast and completely unreachable. The boat captain who knew every inlet and every restaurant on the coast is dead, found at dawn in his sealed cabin. The investigation is stalled. And eight women, bound together by circumstance and good wine and the specific solidarity of people who can't leave, are keeping their secrets close. Claire has a gift for seeing what's underneath a polished surface. But this group is more complicated than it first appears — there are old griefs here, old loyalties, and a warmth so genuine it makes everyone look innocent. Finding the truth means looking harder at the person no one suspects. In the fifth installment of this beloved series, Claire Harmon returns with her notebook, her eye for the quietly wrong detail, and a personal reckoning that has been three years in the making. Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty, Elin Hilderbrand, and Ruth Ware.
