Synopsis

He tells you he’s your father. He welcomes you into his family. And now you’re trapped…   I’ve never met my father. It was always just me and Mom, so when she died, I was completely alone. But today, years since I first mailed my DNA to Family Ties, I finally have a match. They’ve found my biological father.   When I meet Robert, he’s warm, dependable, sturdy. I’m desperate for him to like me. I want to be part of his perfect, high-flying family more than anything.   Except, I’m not so sure they are perfect. Every day, strange things go wrong in the Thompsons’ grand Lake Tahoe house. A family photo is found burning. Robert’s car is tampered with. My mother’s necklace goes missing.   Though that’s nothing compared to the horror of finding the huge family portrait violently slashed in its ornate gold frame… But someone is trying to blame me for everything—all eyes are on me. I can’t run now.   And then I receive an email from Family Ties that makes my blood run cold.   Robert Thompson is not my father.   Now I’m trapped in a house full of strangers, with no idea who I can trust. And I’m terrified my life is in grave danger…   An absolutely unputdownable psychological thriller packed with twists that will leave you reeling. Perfect for fans of The Family Upstairs, The Happy Family and Shari Lapena.   What readers are saying about Ellery A. Kane:   “Oh. My.
