Fall River

By TJ Brown

What if the best Lizzie Borden story isn't about Lizzie at all?

In the summer of 1878, Clara Lodge, a 15-year-old orphan, is sent to live with her cousin, Lizzie Borden in Fall River, Massachusetts. What begins as an uneasy stay inside the oppressive Borden household soon spirals into a season of dread that leaves Clara marked with secrets and scars that she will carry for the rest of her life.

Now married and far from Fall River, Clara has achieved a fragile peace of mind, but when Lizzie is accused of murdering her parents, Clara is drawn back to the city she fled. To heal, she must confront the cousin she fears, the memories she buried, and the truth she tried so hard to forget.

Told across three timelines in one woman's life, Fall River is a chilling blend of history, psychological suspense, and gothic horror-a reimagining of the Borden legend that asks: how long can the past stay buried before it comes for you?

Perfect for fans of Simone St. James, Kate Morton, and Jennifer McMahon, Fall River is a frightening and unforgettable reimagining of the Borden story.

Brown's deliciously eerie page-turner is as shocking and haunting as the murders upon which it's based. A daring, enthralling journey into the darkest depths of the human mind, Fall River held me in its chilling grip from start to finish.
