Daughter of Mine

Hazel Sharp, the daughter of Mirror Lake’s longtime detective, Perry Holt, unexpectedly inherits her father’s home after his death. Not knowing why the house has been left only to her and not to her half-brothers, Hazel is drawn back to the drought-stricken town she left more than a decade ago after her beloved mother disappeared. As the lake dries up, hidden objects and secrets are revealed, including evidence that may lead to answers about Hazel’s mother’s disappearance. Miranda’s (The Last House Guest) thrilling new novel oozes with a sense of foreboding, showcasing her trademark suspense while exploring the complexities of familial relationships. Narrator Inés del Castillo offers an atmospheric performance, implacably adding to the creeping dread as the water levels recede. The exploration of family dynamics makes this newest listen stand out from Miranda’s other novels and may appeal to audiences seeking character-driven narratives.
