, PRAISE FOR VICTORIA HELEN STONE
Follow Her Down
“Follow Her Down is compulsively readable and surprisingly moving
—with a twist that knocked me off my seat. This one will burrow
deep into your muscle.”
—Jess Lourey, Edgar Award–nominated author of The Taken Ones
“Victoria Helen Stone delivers an emotional gut punch of secrets,
betrayal, and unresolved trauma in this gritty revenge thriller. You’ll
cheer for Elise as her life unravels when she’s forced to confront the
one thing she wants to forget—the murder of her sister. The tension
in Follow Her Down builds until you’re desperate to see how the
pieces fit together—and secretly hoping this won’t be the only book
in this world.”
—Darby Kane, internationally bestselling author of Pretty Little Wife
and The Engagement Party
“Follow Her Down pulled me into a tangled web I didn’t want to get
out of! Like any good true crime devotee, I couldn’t help but binge
this story and heed Stone’s bidding to ‘follow her down’ a path of
distrust, denial, and intrigue all stemming from a decades-old
mystery that’s suddenly found new life. Fellow fans of true crime will
be spellbound by Stone’s tense, empathetic writing and fascinated
by the window she provides into the long-lasting effects on a family
that’s found themselves at the center of one of these tragic but
enthralling stories.”
—Emily Bleeker, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of When I’m
Gone
“A simply riveting novel of suspense... a complex and deftly crafted
story built upon decades of doubt, fear, and suspicion that will not
allow a woman overcome her trauma at the unexplained loss of her
sister and the mysterious and possibly linked death of her ex-
,husband. Original and fascinating from start to finish, “Follow Her
Down” is a strongly recommended pick for personal reading lists and
community library conspiracy suspense/thriller fiction collections.”
—Midwest Book Review
“A must-read for romantic suspense fans, Follow Her Down delivers
nonstop tension and a mind-bending twist. You’ll root for Elise to
overcome the traumatic past she’s desperate to escape.”
—Melinda Leigh, Wall Street Journal bestselling author
At the Quiet Edge
“The plot’s many twists and turns will stun and surprise readers.
Suspense fans will get their money’s worth.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Sharp and sophisticated, At the Quiet Edge commanded my
attention from the captivating first chapter to the electrifying
ending.”
—Minka Kent, Washington Post bestselling author
“An utterly compelling blend of family drama and suspense, At the
Quiet Edge pulled me in and didn’t let go. I read this riveting, twisty
book in one sitting. Not to be missed.”
—A. J. Banner, #1 Amazon, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly
bestselling author
“I raced through the pages of At the Quiet Edge. This propulsive
story places you inside a world of secrets, and locks you inside. And
like our heroine Lily and her son Everett, it’s hard to know who to
trust. This is taut, heart-pounding suspense.”
—Kaira Rouda, USA Today and Amazon Charts bestselling author of
The Next Wife and Somebody’s Home
, “As a single mom, I couldn’t help but identify with the complex
dynamics between mother and son as each protected the other in
this gripping thriller. It is a thrilling game of cat and mouse that kept
me guessing all the way up to the jaw-dropping conclusion.”
—Lucinda Berry, bestselling author of The Best of Friends and The
Perfect Child
Evelyn, After
“Hands down, the best book I’ve read this year. Brilliant, compelling,
and haunting.”
—Suzanne Brockmann, New York Times bestselling author
“Readers will cheer on Evelyn when the power dynamic with her
lying, cheating husband shifts, even while they watch her flirting
with disaster in her steamy affair with Noah. A solid choice for Liane
Moriarty readers.”
—Library Journal
“Stone (a nom de plume of romance writer Victoria Dahl) . . . ably
switches to darker suspense in a compelling story exploring what
lurks behind a seemingly perfect life.”
—Booklist
“Stone pens a great story that will have readers wondering what will
happen next to the characters involved in this mysterious tale . . .
Fascinating tale told by a talented storyteller!”
—RT Book Reviews
“Victoria Helen Stone renders the obsessions and weaknesses of her
characters with scorching insight. Her sterling prose creates a
seamless atmosphere of anticipation and dread, while delivering
devastating truths about the nature of sex, relationships, and lies,
often with a humor that’s rapier-sharp. Evelyn, After reads like Gone
Girl with a bigger heart and a stronger moral core.”
