Book Synopsis

"A thriller for fans of The Girl on the Train and Gone Girl...[with] a striking, original voice all Berry’s own.” —The New York Times Book Review

The riveting, Edgar Award-winning first novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Northern Spy and A Double Life


When Nora takes the train from London to visit her sister in the countryside, she expects to find her waiting at the station, or at home cooking dinner. But when she walks into Rachel’s familiar house, what she finds is entirely different: her sister has been the victim of a brutal murder.
 
Stunned and adrift, Nora finds she can’t return to her former life. An unsolved assault in the past has shaken her faith in the police, and she can’t trust them to find her sister’s killer. Haunted by the murder and the secrets that surround it, Nora is under the harrow: distressed and in danger. As Nora’s fear turns to obsession, she becomes as unrecognizable as the sister her investigation uncovers. 

A riveting psychological thriller and a haunting exploration of the fierce love between two sisters, the distortions of grief, and the terrifying power of the past, Under the Harrow marks the debut of an extraordinary new writer.

    Truly first class plot and characters and a writing style that makes you feel like you are inside the main character’s mind.

    Just a mediocre book. Thought it was highly gratuitous. The overuse of street corners, and other locations around England was unnecessary in the storytelling. The plot was fair, but the average reader will have it figured long before the end.
  • Page turner

    Excellent debut; didn't want to put it down. Loved the writing style and the pacing. Nothing gratuitous necessary to hold your interest, just plain good writing. Can't wait for more from Flynn Berry.
