Description
A "captivating thriller full of twists and surprises" (Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author) about what happens when the death of a husband and father isn't the tragedy everyone believes—perfect for fans of the Netflix original series Dead to Me.
Emma Walsh has finally worked up the courage to confront her husband James about his drinking. But James never shows up to meet her as planned, and all her righteous words go unsaid. And unsaid they remain, because the next time Emma sees James, his body lies crumpled amidst the wreckage of his flashy car.

In the aftermath of the fatal crash, Emma and her teenage children begin to embrace life without James's looming, volcanic presence. Buoyed by the support of her two closest friends, she struggles to deal with her grief, complicated by the knowledge that her husband's legacy as an upstanding business owner and family man shines only because so many people, for so long, were so willing to keep his secrets—secrets that twist into new and unexpected shapes as the mysterious details of his last day of life begin to come to light.

A "stylish" (Publishers Weekly) and "delicious" (Booklist) domestic thriller, Wish You Were Gone will keep you guessing "until not just the last page, but the last paragraph" (Chandler Baker, New York Times bestselling author).

        October 4, 2021
        YA author Scott (the Cheerleader trilogy) makes her adult debut with a stylish thriller fueled by family deceptions. Emma Walsh is finally ready to tell her angry, alcoholic husband, James, she wants a divorce after years of hiding his flaws from the world. When James neither arrives at the Manhattan restaurant chosen for the conversation nor answers her texts, she returns home to suburban New Jersey. Five hours later, his car crashes into their garage with James unconscious inside it. The police deem his subsequent death accidental, but Emma has questions. Most urgently, where is his ubiquitous cellphone, and who is the woman who answers when Emma calls his number? Emma’s two closest friends offer to help her find out amid their own personal difficulties, including the wife of James’s partner in a lucrative sports PR firm, a former NFL linebacker who has developed sports-related brain damage. As Emma uncovers James’s hidden life, she finds that her two teenage children have secrets of their own. Scott’s complex story lines come together in an explosive climax. Fans of Lisa Jewell and Liane Moriarty will welcome this new arrival on the domestic thriller scene. Agent: Holly Root, Root Literary.
