Kerry Lonsdale

WSJ Bestselling Author

No More Words

“Lonsdale expertly maintains suspense throughout. Psychological thriller fans will be well satisfied.” —Publishers Weekly

“A perfect summer read.”—Red Carpet Crash

“[A] mesmerizing first installment…sure to dazzle readers.”—The Nerd Daily

“Read in one sitting.” — Frolic

AWARD WINNER IN THE BEST NEW FICTION CATEGORY & AWARD-WINNING FINALIST IN THE THRILLER/ADVENTURE CATEGORY OF THE 2021 BEST BOOK AWARDS, AMERICAN BOOK FEST | #1 AMAZON MYSTERY & SUSPENSE BESTSELLER

No More Series Book #1

From the Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling author comes the first book in a trilogy about love, betrayal, and the secrets families keep.

Forced to choose between abortion or adoption, Olivia Carson’s younger sister, Lily, runs away from home. Sixteen and pregnant, she never returns. But she writes. Once a year, Lily mails a picture of her son, Josh, to Olivia until his thirteenth year. Then it’s Josh himself who arrives at Olivia’s house, alone, terrified, and in possession of a notarized declaration from Lily. It begins, “In the event I go missing…”

Josh has difficulty talking. He can’t read or write, but he’s a prolific artist, exhibiting skill beyond his age. His drawings are as detailed as they are horrific. Olivia soon realizes Josh’s artwork tells a story. There’s more to his arrival and to Lily’s untimely disappearance than it seems. Using the drawings as a road map, Olivia traces Josh’s path back to his mom. Each drawing sheds light on Lily’s past and reveals a darkness that forces Olivia to question everything she thought she knew about her family.
