Quotes

“Listeners hear Ivy's perspective of her experiences and that of her white mother's life back in the 1980s.… Listeners will get wrapped up by the narrators as the many layers of secrets within the family are revealed.” Library Journal“…the increasingly tense plot takes turns the reader won’t see coming. Marr is a writer to watch.” Publishers Weekly“Elle Marr is an author to know. Just when you think you understand the motives behind her characters and the way their story lines are being presented—bam!—Elle will hit you with twists you won’t see coming. Told from multiple points of view, Strangers We Know is about more than Ivy learning of her past and, shockingly, the serial killer within her family; it’s also about knowing who to trust and how to discern who’s telling the complete story. Because if everyone has secrets, are they truly family or only strangers? Read Strangers We Know to find out.” —Georgina Cross, bestselling author of The Stepdaughter
