About this listen
From the bestselling author of the Hulu sensation Tell Me Lies comes a gripping puzzle of a novel about the aftermath of a tragic accident and the fault lines it exposes in a seemingly perfect marriage.
When you can’t remember the truth, who tells your story?
June Lyons has built a beautiful life in Aspen, Colorado, where she lives with her husband Shep and their young daughter Ivy. Shep is a bestselling author whose skyrocketing career has put June's own ambitions on the backburner, but it's a small price to pay. She has a gorgeous, mountainside home, and her sister Penny—her closest friend and confidante—lives just across town. But when June loses her second pregnancy in a tragic ski accident just weeks before her due date, the family's world is immediately shattered, and everything that she thought she knew about her life is thrown into question.
In the months that follow June's devastating loss, her despair is exacerbated by the fact that she can't remember anything about the crash. Why was she on skis, so late in her pregnancy? Why wasn't Shep with her? And what if it wasn't actually an accident? Determined to find the answers that no one seems able to provide, June begins to piece together what happened that day, intent on unveiling the truth at any cost—even if it reveals something about herself, or her marriage, that she’d rather not face.
Brimming with secrets and twists and including a past timeline that follows June and Penny through their early years in Aspen—and the beginning of June and Shep’s relationship—Whiteout excavates the thin line between fact and fiction, memory and reality, as it explores the complexities of marriage, sisterhood, motherhood, and grief.
Critic Reviews
"Whiteout is a wonderful novel, with everything I love in a book. A gripping mystery, a moving exploration of motherhood, grief and love, and the glorious setting of Aspen. I adored it." —Clare Leslie Hall, New York Times bestselling author of Broken Country
"Spellbinding, twisty, stay-up-all-night read set in the snow globe of Aspen, Whiteout gripped me from the first page. As Carola Lovering shows us, the course of true love never did run smooth—especially in whiteout conditions." —Jenny Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of Pineapple Street
"An outrageously smart and intricately drawn puzzle of a novel, Whiteout had me gripped from the first shocking chapter. It’s the rare story that keeps your pulse racing while also leaving you thinking about all the ways women bend and shrink under the weight of being everything to everyone. I absolutely adored it." —Annabel Monaghan, New York Times bestselling author
"Set in the crystalline light of Aspen, Whiteout explores how the fragile terrain of new motherhood begins to unravel one woman's seemingly perfect life. Suspenseful, emotionally charged, and keenly observed, it is a story of marriage, memory, and the courage required when hidden truths come to light." —Adrienne Brodeur, New York Times bestselling author of Wild Game and Little Monsters
