Liane Moriarty

At the heart of The Husband’s Secret is a letter that’s not meant to be read My darling Cecilia, if you’re reading this, then I’ve died... Imagine that your husband wrote you a letter, to be opened after his death. Imagine, too, that the letter contains his deepest, darkest secret—something with the potential to destroy not just the life you built together, but the lives of others as well. Imagine, then, that you stumble across that letter while your husband is still very much alive. . . . Cecilia Fitzpatrick has achieved it all—she’s an incredibly successful businesswoman, a pillar of her small community, and a devoted wife and mother. Her life is as orderly and spotless as her home. But that letter is about to change everything, and not just for her: Rachel and Tess barely know Cecilia—or each other—but they too are about to feel the earth-shattering repercussions of her husband’s secret. Acclaimed author Liane Moriarty has written a gripping, thought-provoking novel about how well it is really possible to know our spouses—and, ultimately, ourselves.

One night a stranger named Savannah knocks on Stan and Joy’s door, bleeding after a fight with her boyfriend. The Delaneys are more than happy to give her the small kindness she sorely needs.

Imagine losing the most important ten years of your life … Alice is twenty-nine. She adores sleep, chocolate, and her ramshackle new house. She’s newly engaged to the wonderful Nick and is pregnant with her first baby. There’s just one problem. All that was ten years ago … Alice has slipped in a step aerobics class, hit her head and lost a decade. Now she’s a grown-up, bossy mother of three in the middle of a nasty divorce and her beloved sister Elisabeth isn’t speaking to her. This is her life but not as she knows it. Clearly Alice has made some terrible mistakes. Just how much can happen in a decade? Can she ever get back to the woman she used to be?

Sometimes it’s the little lies that turn out to be the most lethal... A murder . . . a tragic accident . . . or just parents behaving badly? What’s indisputable is that someone is dead. But who did what? Big Little Lies follows three women, each at a crossroads: Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She’s funny and biting, passionate, she remembers everything and forgives no one. Her ex-husband and his yogi new wife have moved into her beloved beachside community, and their daughter is in the same kindergarten class as Madeline’s youngest (how is this possible?). And to top it all off, Madeline’s teenage daughter seems to be choosing Madeline’s ex-husband over her. (How. Is. This. Possible?). Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare. While she may seem a bit flustered at times, who wouldn’t be, with those rambunctious twin boys? Now that the boys are starting school, Celeste and her husband look set to become the king and queen of the school parent body. But royalty often comes at a price, and Celeste is grappling with how much more she is willing to pay. New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for the nanny. Jane is sad beyond her years and harbors secret doubts about her son. But why? While Madeline and Celeste soon take Jane under their wing, none of them realizes how the arrival of Jane and her inscrutable little boy will affect them all. Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.

De fora, os Delaney parecem uma família perfeita. Os pais, Stan e Joy, ex-técnicos de tênis, seguem ganhando torneios mesmo depois de tantos anos de estrada, e a química dos dois fora de quadra é inegável. É verdade que os quatro filhos não seguiram carreira no esporte, mas agora que são todos adultos há sempre a maravilhosa possibilidade de netos no horizonte. Para completar, após quase cinco décadas casados, Stan e Joy finalmente venderam sua famosa escola de tênis e têm todo o tempo do mundo para aprender a relaxar. Então, por que será que se sentem tão infelizes? Certa noite, uma estranha chamada Savannah bate na porta do casal depois de uma briga com o namorado, e os Delaney se mostram mais do que dispostos a acolher aquela jovem em um momento tão difícil. A moça muda a rotina do casal e devolve a alegria para a casa vazia, mas Stan e Joy logo vão entender que não é só abrigo que ela quer. Meses mais tarde, quando Joy desaparece e não há mais sinal de Savannah, as suspeitas da polícia recaem sobre a única pessoa que resta: Stan. E, para alguém que afirma ser inocente, ele parece ter algo a esconder. Embora dois de seus filhos acreditem na inocência do pai, os outros não têm tanta certeza assim, e os irmãos são obrigados a analisar o casamento dos pais sob um novo olhar. Estaria o desaparecimento de Joy relacionado àquela misteriosa hóspede? Ou as coisas nunca foram tão cor-de-rosa quanto pareciam?

Novo romance de Liane Moriarty, autora do livro que deu origem à premiada série Big Little Lies da HBO Nove pessoas se reúnem em um spa bem distante da cidade. A quilômetros da civilização, sem carro nem celulares, elas não têm qualquer contato com o mundo exterior. Apenas tempo para pensarem em si mesmas e se conhecerem melhor. Algumas estão lá para perder peso, algumas para tentar recomeçar a vida, outras por razões inconfessáveis até para elas mesmas. No meio de tanto luxo e mimo, sucos e meditação, todos sabem que vão precisar se esforçar nos próximos dez dias. Mas ninguém é capaz de imaginar o tamanho do desafio.Frances Welty, escritora de romances best-sellers, chega à Tranquillum House com um problema nas costas, um coração partido e um corte no dedo extremamente dolorido. Ela logo fica intrigada com os colegas de retiro — a maioria não parece precisar de fato de um spa. Mas quem mais a deixa curiosa é a diretora. Será que ela tem as respostas que Frances nem sabia que estava procurando? Será que Frances deve colocar suas dúvidas de lado e mergulhar em tudo que o spa tem a oferecer? Ou é melhor fugir enquanto é tempo?Não demora muito para que todos os hóspedes estejam se fazendo esta pergunta.

If you knew your future, would you try to fight fate? Aside from a delay, there will be no problems. The flight will be smooth, it will land safely. Everyone who gets on the plane will get off. But almost all of them will be forever changed. Because on this ordinary, short, domestic flight, something extraordinary happens. People learn how and when they are going to die. For some, their death is far in the future—age 103!—and they laugh. But for six passengers, their predicted deaths are not far away at all. How do they know this? There were ostensibly more interesting people on the flight (the bride and groom, the jittery, possibly famous woman, the giant Hemsworth-esque guy who looks like an off-duty superhero, the frazzled, gorgeous flight attendant) but none would become as famous as “The Death Lady.” Not a single passenger or crew member will later recall noticing her board the plane. She wasn’t exceptionally old or young, rude or polite. She wasn’t drunk or nervous or pregnant. Her appearance and demeanor were unremarkable. But what she did on that flight was truly remarkable. A few months later, one passenger dies exactly as she predicted. Then two more passengers die, again, as she said they would. Soon no one is thinking this is simply an entertaining story at a cocktail party. If you were told you only had a certain amount of time left to live, would you do things differently? Would you try to dodge your destiny? Liane Moriarty’s Here One Moment is a brilliantly constructed tale that looks at free will and destiny, grief and love, and the endless struggle to maintain certainty and control in an uncertain world. A modern-day Jane Austen who humorously skewers social mores while spinning a web of mystery, Moriarty asks profound questions in her newest I-can’t-wait-to-find-out-what-happens novel.

Nove persone si riuniscono a Tranquillum House, una remota località termale australiana che promette di cambiare la vita dei suoi ospiti in soli dieci giorni. Alcuni sono arrivati per perdere peso, altri per provare a migliorare la propria vita, altri ancora per motivi che non possono ammettere nemmeno con se stessi.

Ma la persona che la intriga di più è Masha, la strana e carismatica proprietaria e direttrice di Tranquillum House. Questa donna potrebbe davvero avere le risposte che Frances sta cercando? E Frances dovrebbe lasciarsi coinvolgere e accettare tutto quello che il resort sta di fatto imponendo?
