About this deal
This was a great thriller where I was able to jump into the action almost immediately because I’d already met the characters in the first one. This is a used book - there is no escaping the fact it has been read by someone else and it will show signs of wear and previous use.
This book was a story of adults scarred by childhood trauma, seeking closure, family, extortion, and historical crimes. I don’t want to say too much more as I don’t want to spoil the plot, but I was completely enthralled by this story. Prepare to be hooked by the much-anticipated stand-alone sequel to The Family Upstairs from multi-million bestselling author Lisa Jewel. Upon sending the evidence for forensic testing he discovers the bones belong to a young woman who was killed by a blow to the head many years ago. I read The Family Upstairs in February and I loved it, it was probably one of my favourites from Lisa Jewell so far, so it’s safe to say I was excited about this sequel, and it definitely did not disappoint.Lisa is a New York Times and Sunday Times number one bestselling author who has been published worldwide in over twenty-five languages.
I had thoroughly enjoyed the first book, "The Family upstairs" and was a little apprehensive that a sequel might be a tad disappointing as they sometimes don't live up to my expectations, but that was definitely not the case with this book.Lucy and Henry want to find another survivor who hasn’t been seen since the night they all escaped the house of horrors. Small note for other American readers: I absolutely bought all of the cult, the house of horrors, the remains found, the reversals, etc. The Family Remains will give readers closure on what happens next and lets us see how the survivors are coping. We mainly hear from Henry, Lucy, Rachel and DI Samuel Owusu, who is investigating the remains of a young woman that have been found in the River Thames.
