Contributor(s):Author: Tana French Named a best book of the fall by Vogue, Entertainment Weekly, Elle, Amazon, Pop Sugar, The Millions, Lit Hub, and Parade A brilliant new work of suspense from ""the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past 10 years."" (Washington Post) From the writer who ""inspires cultic devotion in readers"" (The New Yorker) and has been called ""incandescent"" by Stephen King, ""absolutely mesmerizing"" by Gillian Flynn, and ""unputdownable"" (People), comes a gripping new novel that turns a crime story inside out. Toby is a happy-go-lucky charmer who's dodged a scrape at work and is celebrating with friends when the night takes a turn that will change his life - he surprises two burglars who beat him and leave him for dead. Struggling to recover from his injuries, beginning to understand that he might never be the same man again, he takes refuge at his family's ancestral home to care for his dying uncle Hugo. Then a skull is found in the trunk of an elm tree in the garden - and as detectives close in, Toby is forced to face the possibility that his past may not be what he has always believed. A spellbinding standalone from one of the best suspense writers working today, The Witch Elm asks what we become, and what we're capable of, when we no longer know who we are.  Review citations Shelf Awareness - 10/12/2018Library Journal Prepub Alert - pg. 40 - 05/15/2018Kirkus Reviews - 08/01/2018Booklist / Best Of The Best/Highly Recommended - pg. 38 - 08/01/2018Booklist / Exceptional Presentation - pg. 38 - 08/01/2018Booklist / Book Of Special Distinction - pg. 38 - 08/01/2018Booklist / Top 15 Book Of The Year - pg. 38 - 08/01/2018Booklist / Highly Recommended - pg. 38 - 08/01/2018Publishers Weekly / Best Of The Best/Highly Recommended - 08/20/2018Publishers Weekly / Exceptional Presentation - 08/20/2018Publishers Weekly / Book Of Special Distinction - 08/20/2018Publishers Weekly / Top 15 Book Of The Year - 08/20/2018Publishers Weekly / Highly Recommen
