J.P. Delaney - The Girl Before - A girl a múltból

The highly successful series based on the novel is now available on HBO Max!

After The Girl on the Train and Holtodiglan, here is the new psychological thriller, which turns from the unexpected luck and mysterious fate of two women into a kaleidoscope of duplicity, death and deception.

Two eerily similar women, two eerily similar stories in the same house built and furnished in a sometimes creepy, minimalist style. Does their new residence provide them with security or is it a danger? Can a home change the personality of its inhabitants and push them towards the same fate? Or is there someone moving the threads from the background?

The question seems strange, even intrusive - and for the two women who answer it, the consequences will be devastating.

EMMA
Emma, ​​traumatized by the shocking burglary, wants to move to a new apartment, but she can't find a place that's affordable or safe enough. Until you get to a number on Folgate Street. The house is a masterpiece of architecture: minimalist design, pale stone, plate glass, walls reaching to the sky. But there are rules. The mysterious architect, the designer, still commands the house: no books, no throw pillows, no photographs, no clutter, absolutely no personal items. The space is intended to change the person who lives in it - and it does.

JANE
After a tragedy in her personal life, Jane wants to start a new life. When he finds Folgate Street singular, he immediately likes the house and its aloof, attractive designer. Shortly after moving in, Jane learns about the tragic accident of the previous resident, who looks similar to her in appearance and age. As Jane tries to unravel the truth and the lies, she unwittingly follows the same patterns, makes the same decisions, encounters the same people, and experiences the same terrors as the previous girl.

"J.P. Delaney's new book has all the makings of a murder mystery. There's no doubt it's going to be a bestseller, as evidenced by a movie deal."
InStyle

"Delaney creates a hauntingly charming set in a flat on Folgate Street. The structure of the story seesaws brilliantly as Emma, ​​and then Jane, begins to doubt her incredible luck. Unstoppable!"
USA Today

"This book rushes the reader... Delaney fills the novel with highlighted ethical questions on separate pages, and the most devious twist is that we don't get to know the answers to any of the women."
The New York Times

"A masterfully written, unputdownable thriller that adds a new dimension to the genre. The plot reaches its astonishing conclusion through endless twists and turns."
