Secrets, murders, and messy family dynamics abound in two heart-pounding thrillers. K.T. Nguyen’s novel, You Know What You Did, follows a Vietnamese-American artist under investigation for a murder as she struggles to protect her daughter, as well as manage her fractured memories and OCD. In Now You Owe Me by Aliah Wright, a pair of twins have spent years of their lives abducting and killing college students, until the night that they kidnap the wrong person. Author Jessica Jiji says, “Now You Owe Me is a crisply written, fast-paced thriller with meaning layered so deftly into the entertainment, you get a double bonus of social commentary and spine-chilling twists.” Sponsored by the Friends of the Pohick Library.
