"From the author of The Favor, Nora Murphy's The New Mother is a tense suspense novel that builds to a gripping game of cat-and-mouse, as well as a searing exploration of what it means to be a "good" mother..."-- - Baker & Taylor
New mother Natalie Fanning, left mostly alone with her newborn son, has no one to help her until her neighbor Paul provides the lifeline she needs, but she soon discovers itâs no coincidence he befriended her as she becomes a pawn in his twisted game. - McMillan Palgrave
From Nora Murphy, author of The Favor, The New Mother is both relatable and nerve-wracking, sympathetic and bone-chillingâ a fresh new twist on motherhood and murder in suburbia.
Isolated. Lonely. Tired. It's hard being The New Mother. Sometimes it's murder.
Nothing is simple about being a new mom alone in a new house, especially when your baby is collicky. Natalie Fanning loves her son unconditionally, but being a mother was not all she wanted to be.
Enter Paul, the neighbor.
Paul provides the lifeline she needs in what feels like the most desperate of times. When Paul is helping with Oliver, calmed by his reassuring, steady presence, Nat feels like she can finally rest.
But Paul wants something in return. Itâs no coincidence that he has befriended Natâshe is the perfect pawn for his own plan. Will Nat wake up in time to see it?
