AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND NATIONAL BESTSELLER
"There's no such thing as a book you can't put down, but this one was close." -Stephen King
"Smart suspense at its very best." -John Grisham
Tautly wound and expertly crafted, Two Nights in Lisbon is a riveting thriller about a woman under pressure, and how far she will go when everything is on the line.You think you know a person . . .Ariel Pryce wakes up in Lisbon alone. Her husband is gone-no warning, no note, not answering his phone. Something is wrong.
She starts with hotel security, then the police, then the American embassy, each time confronting questions she can't fully answer: What exactly is John doing in Lisbon? Why would he drag her along on his business trip? Who would want to harm him? And why does Ariel know so little about her new-and much younger-husband?
The clock is ticking. Ariel is increasingly frustrated and desperate, running out of time, and the one person in the world who can help is the person she least wants to ask.
Bestselling author Chris Pavone delivers sparkling prose and razor-sharp insights in this stunning and sophisticated thriller.
Two Nights in Lisbon will stick with you long after the surprising final page.
