Hannah Pittard: Listen to Me

September 15, 2016 | 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Newtonville Books is pleased to welcome Hannah Pittard, author of the critically acclaimed thriller, Listen to Me.

About the novel: Mark and Maggie’s annual drive east to visit family has gotten off to a rocky start. By the time they’re on the road, it’s late, a storm is brewing, and they are no longer speaking to one another. Adding to the stress, Maggie — recently mugged at gunpoint — is lately not herself, and Mark is at a loss about what to make of the stranger he calls his wife. When they are forced to stop for the night at a remote inn, completely without power, Maggie’s paranoia reaches an all-time and terrifying high. But when Mark finds himself threatened in a dark parking lot, it’s Maggie who takes control.

“[Listen to Me] gripped me completely and even gave me nightmares, which is high praise in my book.”—The Chicago Tribune

“The book is an examination of trauma, perseverance, and trust in both yourself and the people you love; to read it is to be at once engrossed and unsettled.” Buzzfeed
