BLURB
In the compulsively readable follow-up to her widely acclaimed debut novel, You, Caroline Kepnes weaves a tale that Booklist calls “the love child of Holden Caulfield and Patrick Bateman.”
Hidden Bodies marks the return of a voice that Stephen King described as original and hypnotic, and through the divisive and charmingly sociopathic character of Joe Goldberg, Kepnes satirizes and dissects our culture, blending suspense with scathing wit.
Joe Goldberg is no stranger to hiding bodies. In the past ten years, this thirty-something has buried four of them, collateral damage in his quest for love. Now he’s heading west to Los Angeles, the city of second chances, determined to put his past behind him.
In Hollywood, Joe blends in effortlessly with the other young upstarts. He eats guac, works in a bookstore, and flirts with a journalist neighbor. But while others seem fixated on their own reflections, Joe can’t stop looking over his shoulder. The problem with hidden bodies is that they don’t always stay that way. They re-emerge, like dark thoughts, multiplying and threatening to destroy what Joe wants most: truelove. And when he finds it in a darkened room in Soho House, he’s more desperate than ever to keep his secrets buried. He doesn’t want to hurt his new girlfriend—he wants to be with her forever. But if she ever finds out what he’s done, he may not have a choice...

Meet The Author
When Caroline Kepnes worked at a bookstore in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, she had to keep handwritten track of all books purchased in a notebook. This led to awkward silences with some customers, great banter with others. While working at this shop, Caroline read Lolita. Several years later, she is the author of You, a novel about an obsessive bookseller. Caroline is currently splitting her time between Los Angeles, California and Cape Cod while she writes Love, the sequel to You. Caroline has written about television and boy bands (Hi, Westlife) for Entertainment Weekly and Tiger Beat, among other outlets. And she has scripted episodes of 7th Heaven and The Secret Life of the American Teenager. If you Google her, you will find that she has written many short stories as well. She avoids needles and freeways whenever possible.
