2. The Homecoming by Andrew Pyper.
Sun May 12, 2019, 01:30 PM
May 2019

It's his most recent.

Quoting from the flap (because I couldn't state it so succinctly) After the death of their absentee father, Aaron and Bridge Quinlan travel to a vast rain forest property in the Pacific Northwest to hear the reading of his will. There, they encounter their mother and troubled sister, Franny, and are shocked to discover the will's terms: in order to claim their inheritance, they must remain at the estate for thirty days without any contact with the outside world.

I'm about 75 pages in and so far it's very good. I've only read a couple of Pyper's other novels, but his first, Lost Girls is extremely good.
