Liane Moriarty, author of Apples Never Fall

The Delaneys are fixtures in their community. The parents, Stan and Joy, are the envy of all of their friends. But after 50 years of marriage, they’ve finally sold their famed tennis academy and are ready to start what should be the golden years of their lives. So why are Stan and Joy so miserable? One night a stranger named Savannah knocks on Stan and Joy’s door, bleeding after a fight with her boyfriend. The Delaneys are more than happy to give her the small kindness she sorely needs. If only that was all she wanted. Later, when Joy goes missing, and Savannah is nowhere to be found, the police question the one person who remains: Stan. But for someone who claims to be innocent, he, like many spouses, seems to have a lot to hide.

Apples Never Fall by Liane Moriarty

October 2021

Liane Moriarty returns with APPLES NEVER FALL, which is a family tale. Bring on the Delaneys, who are well-known and loved in their Sydney suburb. For years, Joy and Stan ran a tennis academy that turned out champions, including their own four children. Now they have sold this family business and are trying to kick their lives back a notch, but this is proving to be pretty challenging. They seem to miss the sound of the ball smacking its way onto the court just a bit too much. They miss the energy of competition.

Paperback releases for the week of July 18th include THE PRESIDENT'S DAUGHTER, James Patterson and Bill Clinton's highly anticipated second collaboration (following THE PRESIDENT IS MISSING), in which a madman abducts the teenage daughter of one-time Navy SEAL and past president Matthew Keating --- turning every parent’s deepest fear into a matter of national security; ONE STEP TOO FAR by Lisa Gardner, a chilling thriller about a young man gone missing in the wilderness of Wyoming…and the secrets uncovered by the desperate effort to find him; APPLES NEVER FALL, a scandalous, page-turning novel from Liane Moriarty that looks at marriage, siblings and how the people we love the most can hurt us the deepest; and QUICKSILVER, which finds Dean Koontz taking readers on a surprising and exhilarating road trip with a man in pursuit of his strange past --- mile by frightening mile.
