Praise for Her One Regret “This book manages to be simultaneously a page-turning crime thriller and a deep exploration of one of the ultimate mothering taboos—regret. Absolutely extraordinary.” —Emily Oster, bestselling author of Expecting Better “As she did in The Nine Lives of Rose Napolitano, Donna Freitas proves she can ‘say the unsayable’ and weave thorny, important questions about women’s lives into a compelling, entertaining, and provocative suspense novel. Her One Regret is bound to spark conversations about motherhood and marriage while keeping readers guessing about the disappearance at the heart of this subversive mystery.” —Andromeda Romano-Lax, author of The Deepest Lake “Smart, addictive, utterly compelling and shockingly honest—a page turner with a deep, emotional core. So many brilliant observations about women’s lives—this book made me feel so seen, while it kept me guessing.” —Daisy Buchanan, author Insatiable and Careering “Immensely powerful. Expertly written. Shocking time and time again . . . A great choice for book groups.” —First Clue Reviews
