From the author of the Emmy-winning HBO series, ‘Big Little Lies’

You know how sometimes, metaphorically speaking, you feel like killing someone, even though you love them very much?
That was true of the Delaney family as well, except that in their case, it wasn’t so metaphorical!
In Liane Morarity’s latest novel, Apples Never Fall, the Delaneys seem like any other average family, at least on the surface. But dig a little deeper and you’ll soon realise that under this layer of normality lies a sheath of secrets, something the Delaney children realise soon after the mysterious disappearance of their mother. As they set about asking questions, they are confronted with a larger question — what if everything they know to be true isn’t true at all?
Coming from the author of Big Little Lies and the Amazon Prime miniseries Nine Perfect Strangers, this novel is as much a nailbiter, with twists and turns done just right, and a plot that expertly mixes the fast and slow.
