NIGHT WILL FIND YOU

Julia Heaberlin

This sharply observed psychological thriller from the acclaimed, bestselling author Julia Heaberlin explores the insidious nature of conspiracy theories and our urge to believe them especially when it comes to sensationalized cases.
When she was ten, Vivvy Bouchet saved a boy's life by making an impossible prediction. Ever since, she has been in a life-long battle between the urgent voices in her head and the science she loves. Now a brilliant young astrophysicist, she wants nothing more than to be left alone with the stars in the Big Bend country of Texas. But the boy she saved, now a Fort Worth cop, has always believed she is psychic - even though she won't say that word out loud. He is begging her to help solve the high-profile cold case of a little girl who disappeared in broad daylight from the kitchen of her old Victorian house. A body was never found, and her mother sits in prison still loudly proclaiming her innocence. Vivvy reluctantly agrees to try. When a popular Texas conspiracy theorist podcaster named Bubba Guns finds out about her involvement, he spews conspiracy theories about the case and muddled truths about Vivvy's murky past. As his listeners spin dangerously out of control, and with her career and the people she loves on the line, Vivvy decides to fight back. Julia Heaberlin is the author of the critically acclaimed We Are All The Same In The Dark (Ballantine, 2020, 155,000+ copies sold in the US) a Barnes and Noble Thriller of the Month and optioned by Sister Pictures for television. Heaberlin is an award-winning journalist who has worked at the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, The Detroit News, and The Dallas Morning News. She grew up in Texas and lives with her family near Dallas/Fort Worth.

Heaberlin is one of my all-time favorite authors. With Night Will Find You, she nails it again, from the brilliant premise to the vivid prose to the gripping suspense to the beating hearts of her characters. Darkly beautiful, enthralling, and masterfully done. Every mystery lover should know her name.

Tense, darkly atmospheric... Gracefully written, with characters that leap off the page and into your imagination, this takes your breath away with its sudden twists.

An irresistible mystery with addictive prose, Night Will Find You is a thriller like no other.

This gripping page-turner from Heaberlin... conceals its secrets from even the cleverest readers...

Dark, elegant and utterly captivating, Night Will Find You is an unforgettable story written with richly evocative prose and genuine heart. I found myself completely immersed. A lyrical exploration of the fine line between scientific fact and the things we can't explain.

Night Will Find You is a rare thriller that seamlessly straddles the mystic and the scientific. Compelling and compassionate, Hearberlin's novel has one foot firmly planted in our world of misinformation and the other reaching for the inexplicable. I loved it.

[Julia] Heaberlin knows how to build to a truly shocking twist, how to break a reader's heart and then begin mending it.

Haunting, heartfelt, chilling and beautifully told, Night Will Find You walks that rare line between mystery, thriller and truly original character study. I adored it.

Night Will Find You is a mesmerizing, unputdownable love letter to the mysteries of science and the human mind. With an unforgettable cast of characters - a reluctant psychic and grieving daughter, a wildly popular conspiracy theorist, a police officer with shadowy motives - Julia Heaberlin pays homage to everything we don't know about the universe and ourselves. I am already missing my time inside this world.

...a sharp, intelligent novel that explores the mysterious nature of belief, whether that is belief in science or conspiracies or a higher power, while simultaneously keeping readers at the edge of their seats. Read more...
