Unraveled

In her forties, divorced, with two wonderful sons and a loving partner, Ann has finally found

some semblance of order in her life. But then she meets John, a seemingly chance encounter on

her daily train commute to work. Their lives become inexplicably entwined. Although Ann finds

John attractive and mysterious, there is something foreboding about him that she can't quite

put her finger on.

Ann's life begins to unravel. Mysterious deaths keep cropping up, and John is a key suspect in

police investigations, though Ann doesn't want to believe he'd be capable of murder. Every

time she thinks she may be getting closer to an answer, the questions only multiply. How is it

that her ordinary, lower middle-class family has become so connected to such violence? Is it

some kind of karma? What about the mysterious circumstances surrounding an heirloom

sweater, delivered to Ann's grandmother from Germany following the Second World War? Why

does John seem to know more about this than Ann does? Most importantly: Who is John?

Simultaneously a page-turning mystery, a keen study of relationships, and a meditation on

family and legacy, this novella tells the extraordinary adventure of one seemingly ordinary

woman. Unraveled keeps readers on their toes from start to startling finish.
