In USA Today best-selling author Kaira Rouda's latest domestic suspense novel, SOMEBODY'S HOME, the sale of house isn't a fresh start, but the beginning of a nightmare.
Julie Jones has left her suffocating marriage. Although it's on the wrong side of the tracks in Oceanside, California, she's hoping that her new house is the first step toward a new life with her teenage daughter, Jess.
However, the previous owners have left something—or rather someone—behind…
Tom Dean has a seething hatred for the father who considers him a lost cause. He's now extended his malice to the woman who has purchased the only home he's ever known. She thinks he'll be gone in three days, but Tom has the perfect plan for this single mother and her daughter.
Before the weekend is over, somebody is going to get exactly what they deserve.
Kaira and I discuss where she gets her novel premises, her process for bringing her everyday characters to life, how young adults become disenfranchised from the rest of the world and cajoled into domestic terrorism, and why it's important to lift the curtain on the dark side of our everyday lives.
