<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published in Canada in 2019 by Simon & Schuster in Canada"--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Instant national bestseller Nathan Ripley follows up the success of<i> Find You in the Dark </i>with another suspenseful page-turner</b>--<b>this time about a woman whose notorious father died when she was a child, but whose legacy comes back to haunt her.</b> <p/>Blanche Potter never expected to face her past again--but she can't escape it. <p/>Blanche, an up-and-coming filmmaker, has distanced herself in every way she can from her father, the notorious killer and cult leader, Chuck Varner. In 1996, when she was a small child, he went on a shooting spree before turning the gun on himself. <p/>Now, Blanche learns that her mother has been murdered. She returns to her childhood home, where she soon discovers there's more to the death than police are willing to reveal. The officer who's handling the case is holding information back, and a journalist who's nosing around the investigation is taking an unusual interest in Blanche's family. <p/>Blanche begins to suspect that Chuck Varner's cult has found a new life, and that her mother's murder was just the beginning of the cult's next chapter. <p/>Then another killing occurs.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Your Life is Mine</i></b> <p/> "[A] well-wrought characterization of a woman who can't seem to escape her past or the future creeping up on her." --<b><i>Booklist </i></b> <p/> "Engrossing. . . .

Start reading early in the day, or you'll be up all night like I was! A standout debut novel."--<b>Jennifer Hillier, author of <i>Jar of Hearts </i>and <i>Wonderland</i></b><br><br>"Ripley's debut offers a twist on the typical serial-killer story....This offers a unique spin with just enough creepy details to keep suspense readers interested."-- <b><i>Booklist</i></b><br>
