Book Overview
Everyone has the same questions about best friends Owen and Luna: What binds them together so tightly? Why weren't they ever a couple? And why do people around them keep turning up dead? In this riveting novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Passenger, every answer raises a new, more chilling question. "Masterfully plotted, The Accomplice is both a keep-you-guessing mystery and a keenly and tenderly observed character study."--Attica Locke, author of Bluebird, Bluebird and Heaven, My Home
ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2022--PopSugar, CrimeReads Owen Mann is charming, privileged, and chronically dissatisfied. Luna Grey is secretive, cautious, and pragmatic. Despite their differences, they form a bond the moment they meet in college. Their names soon become indivisible--Owen and Luna, Luna and Owen--and stay that way even after an unexplained death rocks their social circle. They're still best friends years later, when Luna finds Owen's wife brutally murdered. The police investigation sheds light on some long-hidden secrets, but it can't penetrate the wall of mystery that surrounds Owen. To get to the heart of what happened and why, Luna has to dig up the one secret she's spent her whole life burying. The Accomplice brilliantly examines the bonds of shared history, what it costs to break them, and what happens when you start wondering how well you know the one person who truly knows you.

Easy and suspenseful read!
Published by Lori , 1 year ago
I don’t normally read mystery / suspense type books but I had read “The Passenger “ by Lisa Lutz and like her style of writing. This book is a page turner! I found myself at night saying, “Only one more chapter” and reading at least 3-4 before I told myself I had to go to sleep. The characters are believable. The book explores the bff bond between Owen and Luna who met in college. The chapters swap between college and present day and involves the mysterious deaths of people significant to both characters at different times of their lives. The writer develops characters by describing them through their actions. Interactions between the main characters and minor characters and the questioning techniques of the detectives add to the “Who Done It?” suspense of the novel. I am 3/4ths done and just ordered “The Swallows” by the same author.
