“A singular achievement. . . . A tender new book about loss and the unquenchable passion for homeland.”
-The New York Times Book Review
Lisa Unger @ PLA 2012
HEARTBROKEN: A Novel by Lisa Unger is a shattering new thriller about the ties that bind. It is the mesmerizing story of three women on a collision course, of an island haunted by dark memories and restless ghosts, and of the all-too-real demons we must battle. Part thriller, part ghost story, part meditation on what holds us together and keeps us apart, this is a riveting tale of family dysfunction and a ticking clock of bad deeds and even more sinister outcomes. Be sure to come out and meet Lisa at our PLA events!
