Lisa Unger · Notes From the Margin

I’m beyond thrilled to share this early first look at my upcoming March 2027 novel SHE WAS NEVER HERE in People magazine! And I can’t wait for you to meet Ivy Chase, the young woman at the heart of this novel who finds herself in desperate circumstances.

Huge thanks to the folks at Park Row and HTP Books for creating a cover that manages to be both dark and beautiful, giving me (and hopefully you, too) goosebumps. Stay tuned for excerpts, bonus material, news, giveaways and all sorts of good stuff as we get closer to the release date. In the meantime, I hope you will pre-order a copy from your favorite bookseller. Click on the image below to read the article in People.

When a shocking accident costs a young nanny her job, a handsome stranger offers her a position at his isolated estate – in this electrifying psychological thriller from New York Times bestseller Lisa Unger.

When aspiring writer Ivy Chase loses her nanny job, she finds herself broke and with no place to go. Out of options, she has no choice but to accept an unexpected offer from handsome and wealthy widower Evan White. Soon, she’s on a private jet, heading towards the stranger’s isolated estate, Fox Glenn, to care for his two children.

Fox Glenn, lovingly restored by Evan’s late wife, Tess, is idyllic. But the children are haunted by their mother’s death. Lulu is tormented by a menacing imaginary friend named Lavender. Asher is sullen and angry. Almost as soon as Ivy arrives, the police are at the door. The former nanny, who Ivy has come to replace, has disappeared.

Meanwhile, Ivy’s previous employer has discovered shameful things about Ivy. She wants vengeance and is willing to do whatever it takes to get it. As Ivy tries to unravel the mysteries of the White family while managing frightening threats of her own, she realizes she’s not safe anywhere – inside or outside the walls of Fox Glenn. Combining eerie gothic suspense with razor-sharp tension, Unger delivers an up-all-night, read-with-the-lights-on thriller about desire, deception, and revenge.
