Our reading recommendation

The Ghostwriter

by Julie Clark

Why we recommend it

A family tragedy, a 50-year-old mystery, and a father who may or may not be telling the truth. The Ghostwriter had me guessing until the very end. Just when you think you've got it figured out, something makes you question everything. A great whodunnit!

Let’s talk about it

Book-club questions

Spoiler note: These prompts are best explored after everyone has finished the book.

  • At what point did you think you had figured out who was responsible for the murders? Were you right?
  • Did you believe Vincent was telling the truth, or were you suspicious of him from the beginning?
  • How did you feel about Olivia's relationship with her father? Would you have agreed to write his story?
  • Did the different timelines help you put the pieces together, or did they make you question your theories even more?
  • What clue or detail made you change your mind about what really happened?
  • Without giving away the ending to anyone who hasn't read it, did you find the resolution satisfying? Or were you hoping for something different?
