A New Jersey family takes an ex-con into their suburban home in this
“chilling, nightmarish” novel by a #1 New York Times–bestselling
author (San Francisco Chronicle). Attorney Michael O’Meara’s
dogged belief that Lee Roy Sears was innocent of murder has paid off.
The lawyer has not only gotten the convicted inmate released from
death row at Connecticut State Prison, but also procured an artist’s
residency in Mount Orion, New Jersey, for the rehabilitated Vietnam
vet upon his parole. Sears is adapting nicely. He’s selling his
sculptures. He’s eating well. He has ingratiated himself into
Michael’s home; is eternally grateful for Michael’s benevolent
motives, however mysterious their origin; and is thriving on the
town’s liberal patronage and attention—especially that of
Michael’s adulterous wife, Gina. But as Michael’s
picture-perfect family begins to show signs of cracking, his
suspicions about Sears become violent obsessions. Now, the dreams and
secrets of two men are about to collide in a nightmare. And before
long, the lines between guilt and innocence, lies and truth, trust and
betrayal are bound to go up in flames. Snake Eyes is in an astute
and suspenseful story by the National Book Award–winning author of
them, We Were the Mulvaneys, The Gravedigger’s Daughter, and many
other acclaimed novels.
