A chilling thriller, perfect for fans of Karin Slaughter and Lisa Gardner, exploring the dark side of police culture and family trauma.
Bree knew that life married to a beat cop would be tough, especially in the crime-infested city of East Bernheim, but she believes they will be fine living in 'Burner' even after she has their first child. Family life is manageable until one day, crime follows them home, threatening their safety.
At a loss for how to keep his family safe and keep his job, Jake agrees to stretch their finances and move an hour away to a bigger house in a somewhat better neighborhood. Their lives seem to improve until Bree, heavily pregnant with their second child, begins to hear voices and suffer strange nightmares. Then, when tragedy strikes on the job, Jake enters a spiral of guilt and grief that degrades his grip on reality.
Bree, isolated and struggling, must protect her children from the one person she thought would always keep them safe. She and Jake are haunted in every way, and not just by whatever is lurking inside the house. A thriller that tackles trauma and toxicity in police culture, Every Fall will have you on the edge of your seat.

Thought provoking and atmospheric, Every Fall pulls back the curtain of the thin blue line while simultaneously exploring the isolation of early motherhood. Tana French meets Riley Sager in all the best ways. A winner.” — Alex Finlay, Bestselling Author of If Something Happens to Me
