The new novel from New York Times bestseller Dennis Lehane, author of Mystic River and Shutter Island

“Lehane is the master of complex human characters thrust into suspenseful, page-turning situations.” —Gillian Flynn

Since We Fell follows Rachel Childs, a former journalist who, after an on-air mental breakdown, now lives as a virtual shut-in. In all other respects, however, she enjoys an ideal life with an ideal husband. Until a chance encounter on a rainy afternoon causes that ideal life to fray. As does Rachel’s marriage. As does Rachel herself. Sucked into a conspiracy thick with deception, violence, and possibly madness, Rachel must find the strength within herself to conquer unimaginable fears and mind-altering truths. By turns heart- breaking, suspenseful, romantic, and sophisticated, Since We Fell is a novel of profound psychological insight and tension. It is Dennis Lehane at his very best.

It took me a month to get through this book. It felt monotonous and the build up to the twist (which was pretty unbelievable and dare I say boring) was a hard climb. I can't say I didn't enjoy it somewhat, but I didn't love it like I loved some of Dennis Lehane's other books.

I would love to see him and Coben write a book together. New Jersey and Boston. Dennis lehane has produced great books to be adapted but aside from Mystic River, which was brilliant, the other two were not good. Ben affleck's adaptation and the drop, while I personally liked it, it didnt do well, which was unfortunate because of Tom Hardy and James Gandolfini. Great writer always expect a great read

Amazing book. Sometimes I watch the girls on the local news and I think about yes, they're beautiful - and what an idyllic life they must have... but this author makes you think twice about that. And man, he's got all the Boston landmarks down to a T, even Pinnochio's!
