Garner lives in a New Jersey river town with her husband, little boy, and shih-poo where she writes books about women and their dark, secret selves. The Night It Ended is her debut novel and The Family Inside is her newest novel.
At CrimeReads Garner tagged five books that turn "that ‘ordinary’ fear—losing your child—into something extraordinary." One title on the list:
Jennifer Hillier, LITTLE SECRETSRead about another entry on the list.
My pulse was racing when I read the opening pages of LITTLE SECRETS and it didn’t slow until all was resolved in the end. Hillier opens with a familiar scenario—a mother loses her child in a crowd. But what comes next morphs into a twisty tale exploring the depths of a damaged marriage and the “little secrets” parents keep from one another, often centering around their own child.
Little Secrets is among Courtney Rodgers's nine chilling thrillers about marriage, Andromeda Romano-Lax's four top thrillers that explore a mother's worst nightmare, Jessica Hamilton's six top novels about extra marital affairs, and Lisa Regan's ten riveting reads filled with shocking secrets.
