In this twisted psychological thriller from the New York Times bestselling co-author of the Reese’s Book Club pick The Last Mrs. Parrish, a woman is tormented by nightmarish visions of her future—and then they start to come true.
“A compulsively readable nail-biter.”—Kimberly McCreight, New York Times bestselling author of Like Mother, Like Daughter

“Psychological thriller lovers are in for a darkly delicious treat.”—Carola Lovering, author of Tell Me Lies
Annabelle Reynolds has everything she’s ever wanted. A devoted husband, two wonderful daughters, and a career she loves. She couldn’t be happier. So why is she suddenly plagued by disturbing dreams of a future where she hates her husband and her daughters’ lives are at risk? At first, she chalks the dreams up to an overactive imagination. But when details from her dreams, details she couldn’t possibly have predicted, begin to materialize, she realizes these aren’t just dreams but rather premonitions of a terrifying future. They all point to a singular choice, an unknown moment that holds Annabelle’s life in the balance.
Then Annabelle has a dream that her daughter Scarlett is in immediate danger. Someone wants Scarlett dead, and Annabelle has no idea who or why. Suddenly, every choice she makes is fraught with peril, with no inkling of which move could bring this terrifying vision to life. As Annabelle’s present life starts to collide with the future in her dreams, she wrestles with how much control she really has over her destiny and whether she can change what is meant to be.

      When Annabelle Reynolds hears the phrase, "May all your dreams come true," it resonates like a curse, not a blessing. Annabelle's dreams are nightmares, and they do have an alarming track record. Some foreshadow mishaps involving her husband James and daughters Scarlett and Olivia; others involve visions of herself in the arms of another man or with James' hands clenched murderously around her throat. Insofar as she can get anyone to heed her warnings, crises are usually avoided, but the near misses are straining her fragile marriage. When Scarlett is seriously injured in a hit-and-run accident, secrets Annabelle thought she had buried deeply in her past come to light, and her suburban-perfect world devolves into a hellscape where cyberstalking, kidnapping, and revenge rule. As a taut example of the psychological suspense genre, Constantine's latest domestic thriller delights with whipsaw twists revealed from both Annabelle's and Scarlett's perspectives. Breakneck pacing, bombshell revelations, and unpredictable outcomes orchestrated by devilishly unreliable characters coalesce in a spellbinding and satisfyingly spine-shivering read.

      When a woman starts having dreams that seem to foreshadow future events, she also begins to unravel a dark family secret. Annabelle Reynolds has all the trappings of a happy, successful life: a handsome, solicitous neurologist husband; two beautiful daughters; a thriving career in media communications; a big, beautiful house in the most desirable part of town. So, when she wakes from a terrible nightmare in which her husband is choking and threatening her, she chalks it up to an overactive imagination. But soon there is another nightmare about a very specific plane crashing--and this one comes true. Could she be psychic? Her husband, James, is not only skeptical, he is downright dismissive. But Annabelle can't lose the feeling of dread that bad things are coming. Of course, there are cracks in the facade of her perfect life, anyway: Her older daughter is texting with someone she met online, hoping to meet up with him IRL, and Annabelle herself hides a private grief. When she dreams of a handsome stranger who then becomes her next client, she realizes that, whatever the origin, her dreams are true signposts that something is wrong--in her past, in her marriage, and, possibly, with her children. Most of the chapters are told from Annabelle's point of view, either in the present or in a time labeled "Before," but occasionally there is a short interlude in the voice of "The Wife." Whose wife? And what's up with the husband she is so closely investigating? Despite a bit of mustache-twirling once the villain is revealed, the complex characters plus the hint of supernatural prophecy put a new spin on domestic thriller tropes. Women, Constantine roars, believe your instincts! A tension-ramping nail-biter of a novel.
