About The Book
First published in 2001, a reissue of #1 New York Times bestseller Lisa Jewell’s third novel, a contemporary novel about a young woman determined to discover the secrets her celebrity half-sister kept after her untimely death.
Bee Beahorn had it all: a successful music career, fabulous friends, and a glamorous celebrity lifestyle.
At least, that's what her estranged half-sister, Ana, had always believed.
Their lives were worlds apart. Bee was beautiful, extravagant and full of life. Ana was awkward, shy, and destined to live in Bee's shadow.
Years later, Bee is found dead, and Ana is dispatched to her apartment to help clear her things. After her #1 hit single, Bee had disappeared from the celebrity scene and remained cut off from her family. Ana quickly understands that this task is an opportunity to discover the truth of her sister’s life, and when she finds evidence of a secret country cottage, mysterious weekends away, and even a missing cat, she realizes that everything she—and the public—knew about her sister may have been a lie.
