This suburban thriller is the first one in a while that actually made me gasp out loud.

We follow two POVs: Juno, a former therapist who decides to move in with a family in one of the best houses in Seattle; and Winnie, a wife and mother living the life she's always dreamed. Both of these women are complex, self-centered, and flawed--neither of them can see the harm their selfish choices leave in their wake.

The further you get into this tangled web of secrets, the more twisted the story becomes. If you like dark and creepy family stories, The Wrong Family is the one for you.
