Advance praise for The Things You'll Never Know:

“A daring, fiery novel about motherhood, womanhood, and desire. Audrain has an uncanny ability to render the female experience with aching precision. Filled with jaw-dropping twists and peopled with characters so real they could be blood relatives or neighbors, this electrifying novel will haunt you in the very best ways.”
—Nita Prose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid series

“Ashley Audrain is an astonishingly rare talent. The Things You'll Never Know had me torn between ripping through the pages to find out what happened and soaking up every poignant observation about the beauty and burden of being a wife and mother. Audrain treats her characters with deep empathy while cutting straight to the bone. I felt the book in my body. I cried, my heart raced, and sometimes I was so overcome, I had to set it down. I loved it!”
—Carley Fortune, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Our Perfect Storm

“A woman’s sudden death unleashes a slew of secrets for those left behind. No one writes women—their lives, their struggles, and their secret desires—better than Ashley Audrain. A masterclass in tension.”
—Shari Lapena, New York Times bestselling author of She Didn't See it Coming

“Ashley Audrain's ingenious third novel will hold you tightly in its arms until the very last word, and then haunt you when it ends. With her singular touch—spare, loaded, deliciously astute, elegant, and unflinching—Audrain explores a mother’s love and devotion, but also her secret desires and murky inner world. As coiled and complex as its protagonist, The Things You’ll Never Know made my head spin and split my heart open.”
—Emma Knight, New York Times bestselling author of The Life Cycle of the Common Octopus
