An instant New York Times bestseller from the author of The Last Thing He Told Me
"Dave's signature blend of twisty mystery, family drama, and moving love story is top-notch" (The Boston Globe) in this instant New York Times bestseller where estranged siblings chase a fifty-year-old family secret that shaped their father's mysterious life—and death...
"Pulse pounding suspense and moving family drama" —People
"A master storyteller. You won't want to miss this one." —Harlan Coben
"The perfect mix of heart-pounding and heartfelt...Dave delivers yet another suspenseful page-turner that should be a book club staple for a long time to come." —New York Post Nora Noone's father was many things to many people. To the public he was a self-made titan of industry, whose luxury boutique hotels were among the most coveted destinations in the world. To his three ex-wives, he was a loving yet distant family man who managed to keep his finances—and his families—separate. But, to Nora, he was always a mystery—especially after his suspicious death at his cliffside home.
Though the authorities insist there was no foul play, Nora and her estranged brother, Sam, believe otherwise. As they form an uneasy alliance to unpack the mystery, they start putting together the pieces of their father's past and uncover a family secret that changes everything.
With Laura Dave's "signature blend of pulse-pounding suspense" (People) and "trademark emotional heft" (New York Post), The Night We Lost Him is a "propulsive" (Oprah Daily) must-read, with a heartbreaking final twist you'll never see coming.

Reviews-
July 8, 2024 Estranged half-siblings reunite to investigate the death of their father, self-made hotel magnate Liam Noone, in this soapy family saga from Dave (The Last Thing He Told Me). Brooklyn-based architect Nora is surprised, after years of fighting to maintain her independence from her father, by the depth of her grief following his fatal fall from the cliff outside his California home. Nora is further blindsided when Sam, the younger half-brother she barely knows from the second of Liam’s three marriages, reaches out to share his suspicion that the tragedy was no accident. Nora and Sam—who began working at the family firm after an accident derailed his promising baseball career—start squabbling almost instantly, but stonewalling from Liam’s cousin and business partner, Joe, and from the California cops whose probe of Liam’s death was perfunctory at best, convince the pair there’s a mystery to solve. Whether Liam was murdered is a question Dave dangles tantalizingly as the siblings press for answers from the family and friends who he kept almost compulsively compartmentalized. Unfortunately, save for Nora, the inconsistent characters often feel less considered than Dave’s descriptions of decor and dining. It’s a mixed bag. Agent: Suzanne Gluck, WME.

Narrator Julia Whelan portrays Nora Noone with an earnest tone in this gripping family drama. Nora's father, Liam, a thrice-married hotel magnate, has become distant from his grown children. After recently changing his will, he falls from a slippery cliff at a California seaside cottage. Did he slip, or was he pushed? Whelan voices Nora's estranged stepbrother, Sam, with a brash tone as they investigate what police have determined to be an accidental death. Whelan uses her abundant vocal gifts to increase the tension when long-hidden family secrets shake Nora and Sam to their cores. Bestselling novelist Dave and narrator Whelan are an ideal pairing.
