Description: Gone Tonight by Sarah Pekkanen "Im a huge fan of Sarah Pekkanens books, and GONE TONIGHT is her best yet." --Colleen Hoover"Jaw-dropping. Layered. Triumphant." - The New York TimesWhen Ruth Sterling was a teenager, she slipped away one night, desperate to escape an abusive home and a troubling boyfriend. Pregnant, alone, and prepared to do anything to survive, she eventually makes a life for herself--and soon, for her newborn daughter Catherine. For more than twenty years, Ruth has lived quietly and has provided for her daughter. But she is always ready to run at a moments notice, and never allows either of them to put down roots too deeply. Now, Catherine is grown and craves a life for herself. This is something her mother will do anything to prevent--but for what reasons? It has always been just the two of them against the world. But how well do they really know each other? When Ruths deeply held quest to keep Catherine by her side reveals cracks in her carefully constructed world, both mother and daughter begin a dance of deception. They both have secrets. But which one of them carries the real darkness inside? Propulsive, brilliantly layered, and a true shocker, Gone Tonight is an emotionally thrilling powerhouse of a novel about the things we do for love, and what were capable of when pushed to the limit.

Just when you think Pekkanen couldnt possibly outdo herself, she delivers with what will undoubtedly be crowned one of the years best novels. Fresh, inventive, and with a gut-punch you wont see coming, GONE TONIGHT is this decades Gone Girl. Believe the hype."-- Alex Finlay, author of The Night Shift "Catherine Sterlings personal and professional worlds are beginning to collide: shes a nurse who cares for patients with Alzheimers disease, and her mother is starting to show classic symptoms. The two live together, making the forgetfulness hard to miss, with Ruth Sterling looking very confused when recent events are discussed and forgetting words--calling ice cubes "water squares," for example. Ruth is reluctant to get any scans that could confirm the likely diagnosis--her mother died of Alzheimers, she says, and she knows whats ahead. But then Catherine makes a discovery that causes her to doubt that her mothers problems are real. As the point of view shifts between the two women, readers get Ruths first-person point of view; her odd behavior is hiding an explosive past that Catherine knows nothing about. Readers are in for a wild cat-and-mouse game as this tight duo (boundaries, what are they?) faces terrible odds when Catherine delves into her mothers past and Ruth hides the pair from an encroaching threat. There are some very sad moments here, related to dire poverty and child sexual abuse. Overall, its an eye-opening look at how "our minds...talk us out of things we dont want to know."--First Clue "Prepare to stay up until the wee hours devouring GONE TONIGHT by Sarah Pekkanen." --Real Simple "Your heart will race until the final page." --Westport Magazine Review Quote "This riveting, original, and powerful mother-daughter story kept me glued to the pages.
