The Note

Praise

“When a girls’ weekend away goes wrong, everyone looks to the past for answers. A twisty, fast-paced thriller about friendships, betrayal, and loyalty.” —Nita Prose, #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Maid and The Mystery Guest

“No one lands plot twists like Alafair Burke, and THE NOTE may be her best novel yet.” —Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times best-selling author

“The Note hits the ground running, rocking and rolling from the very first page. Alafair Burke knows how to build a thriller that picks up more speed as it goes, all the while telling a story about lives turned upside down by one wrong move.” —Michael Connelly, #1 New York Times best-selling author

“With The Note, Alafair Burke ups her already strong game of deviously smart plotting and strong, believable female characters to deliver her most thrilling and entertaining novel.” —Karin Slaughter, New York Times best-selling author of After That Night

“WHAT?! That’s what I kept saying over and over again while reading The Note. Betrayals. Lies. Love. Friendships. And twists—oh, the twists! Utterly immersive and addictive, populated by people we all know, who frustrate us, who don’t know how to love us but who are there for us until the end.” —Rachel Howzell Hall, best-selling author of They All Fall Down

“Alafair Burke is at the top of her game with this timely, suspenseful novel about fierce female friendships. Full of red herrings and misdirection, The Note is a breathtaking, read-in-one-sitting thriller that kept me guessing the whole way through. I absolutely loved it.” —Jennifer Hillier, best-selling author of Things We Do in the Dark

“Engrossing. . . . Burke builds an intricate structure of secrets layered within secrets, revealed for maximum suspense. The complex friendship among three flawed but engaging characters anchors this satisfying psychological thriller.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
