About Look Closer
A silent child. A past that won't stay buried. And a truth that could unravel everything. Claire Donovan is no stranger to loss, but she's determined to piece her life back together. As a social worker, she's used to carrying others' burdens-until a five-year-old girl, found alone in the woods, turns her world upside down. The child won't speak, won't connect, and no one seems to know who she is. What starts as a case becomes an obsession, pulling Claire into a mystery that refuses to let go. Strange warnings in the shadows. Clues point to secrets she can't ignore. The deeper Claire digs, the more the life she thought she understood begins to fracture. Someone's watching. Someone's waiting. And the answers she's chasing might cost her everything she's fought to reclaim. From Jannik Petterson comes Look Closer, a haunting and heart-wrenching journey through grief, courage, and the shadows of the unknown. Perfect for readers who devoured The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides, The Chain by Adrian McKinty, and Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell, this novel will keep you guessing-and feeling-until the very end. Perfect for fans of: The Push by Ashley Audrain All the Smoke by Matt Brolly The Night Swim by Megan Goldin
