Bookseller recommendation

“The book started slow but steadily builds into a novel with a fantastic setting, backstory and suspense. Hazel grew up in the town of Mirror Lake where her entire family is in law enforcement. She returns after getting a call that her father has passed away. Following the funeral, a car is found submerged in the lake due to a drought... As the novel progresses, Hazel starts to uncover buried secrets and starts to question how much she really knows the family she grew up with while trying to solve the mystery. I was on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what was going to happen by the end of the book! The author does a wonderful job of leaving subtle breadcrumbs in each chapter so it’s very easy to get through this book quickly. I hope you enjoy it! ”

“Neither my desire for sustenance nor slumber could match the compelling force of Megan Miranda's latest book, Daughter of Mine. It all but leaped back into my hands when I tried to put it down and refused to let me go until I reached the end. Daughter of Mine had me in its grip and wound so tightly at times that I commanded Hazel to heed my scalp-tingling alert to danger and WATCH OUT! An engrossing read, fraught with tension, that kept me in its grip until the final, final! page of the epilogue. Even then I paced, gulped a stiff bracer and flipped back to review the many twists and cliffs of this suspense filled tale. ”

“If you love trying to figure out what exactly is going on, this one is for you. Just who is Hazel, and why does her father leave his home to her, and not her brothers? Who was her mother? And seriously, what is with all these things turning up in Mirror Lake? I enjoyed every minute of it.”

When Hazel Sharp, daughter of Mirror Lake’s longtime local detective, unexpectedly inherits her childhood home, she’s warily drawn back to the town—and people—she left behind almost a decade earlier. But Hazel’s not the only relic of the past to return: a drought has descended on the region, and as the water level in the lake drops, long-hidden secrets begin to emerge…including evidence that may help finally explain the mystery of her mother’s disappearance.

Riveting and suspenseful, Daughter of Mine is Megan Miranda’s best novel yet, filled with “delicious twists, dark secrets, and a deadly past” (Ashley Elston, New York Times bestselling author of First Lie Wins) that will keep you turning the pages late into the night.
