NO ONE KNOWS
說好的快樂時光
內容介紹
「十分引人入勝，一場精心的策劃。既是謎團，又是心理驚悚片，更是一篇警世故事。不可避免地與《控制》相比擬，然而其藝術性和令人回味的文字撐起了作品飽滿的架構、和充滿張力的角色們，相輔相成！」 –出版商周刊(Publishers Weekly)
緊張刺激、曲折離奇的驚悚之作，出自紐時暢銷懸疑作家J·T·艾里森(J.T. Ellison)細膩之手，一名無助的女子得找出整起事件究竟自己已經發瘋，還是她的丈夫已經起死回生……
那天，當奧布里·漢密爾頓(Aubrey Hamilton)的丈夫被田納西州的單位宣告死亡後，奧布里理應帶著解脫感繼續生活，然而她並不願意，他想要是丈夫喬許(Josh)回到他的身邊。
距離他消失轉眼間已五年了，他們曾擁有非常快樂的婚姻，不是嗎？丈夫的消失，讓身為妻子的奧布里成為主要嫌疑犯。五年的空窗累積了許多的孤獨、寂寞和疑惑。為什麼喬許不參加自己死黨的單身派對？他是被謀殺的還是自己逃跑的？現在一切看似塵埃落地時，一個神秘陌生的人物卻又突然出現，困擾著奧布里的新生活？
看似無害樸素的表面，底下其實暗藏著黑暗的祕密，其描繪的手法細膩，將人性扒開，層層解析。如果對於吉莉安·薛伯·弗琳(Gillian Flynn)《控制》(GONE GIRL)、寶拉·霍金斯(Paula Hawkins)《列車上的女孩》(THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN)無法自拔的讀者，這本書將會帶給你無比的享受。

書評
"Riveting… a skillfully plotted story that’s equal parts mystery, psychological thriller, and cautionary tale. Comparisons to Gone Girl are inevitable....Artful and evocative prose complements the fully fleshed and realistically drawn characters." ― Publishers Weekly on NO ONE KNOWS
"Enthralling! Ellison's twisty, turny thriller is my kind of novel; interesting characters, complex plotting, and an ending you'll never see coming. Suspense at its finest!" -- Lisa Gardner, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Find Her
"You think Gone Girl couldn't be topped, try Ellison's web of betrayal, lies and deceit. And wonder..." -- Catherine Coulter, New York Times bestselling author of Nemesis
"Clever and compelling, JT Ellison’s NO ONE KNOWS is a page-turner full of unexpected turns and surprises. Pour a glass of wine, settle down in your favorite chair, and get ready for an entertaining roller coaster of a read. JT Ellison is a fast-rising star." -- Jeff Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of THE FIRST ORDER
"J.T. Ellison's stand-alone thriller is a slow burn suspense that heats up, page-by-page, until the shocking end. NO ONE KNOWS is unputdownable, a gripping story that begs to be read in one sitting." -- Allison Brennan, New York Times bestselling author of NO GOOD DEED
"NO ONE KNOWS hooked me from page one. The more I read, the more I had to know what really happened to Aubrey’s husband that night in Nashville. And the more I trusted Aubrey’s version of events, the more I doubted them as well. Ellison has written a masterful game of cat-and-mouse." -- Erica Spindler, New York Times bestselling author of THE FIRST WIFE and THE FINAL SEVEN
"No One Knows grabs you from the start and doesn’t let go. A compelling thriller about loss, betrayal, and buried secrets, it’s a book you’ll devour, trying to guess what’s going on and what will happen next. The twists are genuinely—and satisfyingly—shocking. J.T. Ellison has written another winner." -- ―Meg Gardiner, Edgar Award-winning author of Phantom Instinct
"J.T. Ellison has created one hell of a brain-bender. NO ONE KNOWS is a masterfully written shell game in which a grief-stricken woman is forced to reckon with her past until everything she believes about love, hope, and trust is tested. Ellison’s storytelling powers are on sharp display in this literary thriller, proving that no one is who they claim to be and everyone has secrets worth protecting. Compelling, perceptive, unsettling and with an ending so on point I wish I could read it again for the first time. I inhaled this novel." -- -- Ariel Lawhon, author of FLIGHT OF DREAMS
"Ellison clearly belongs in the top echelon of thriller writers..." ― Booklist (starred review)
"Like a nerve-shredding trip through a carnival house of mirrors, NO ONE KNOWS left me breathless. Ellison's deft, seamless prose makes her devilish twists look effortless, and her sleight-of-hand with the facts of Aubrey Hamilton’s troubled life keeps the tension wire-high.
"NO ONE KNOWS is razor-sharp, shocking, and delicious." -- ―Laura Benedict, author of Charlotte’s Story
"Intense, captivating...[an] excellent suspense series." ― Publishers Weekly (starred review) on THE END GAME

"JT Ellison gets her Hitchcock on, expertly ratcheting up the tension, twisting her finely honed plot, and just plain messing with her characters' heads until the superbly explosive end. Not to be missed!" -- NYT bestselling author Lisa Gardner on WHERE ALL THE DEAD LIE
"A tip-top thriller" ― Kirkus Reviews
"Flawed yet identifiable characters and genuinely terrifying villains populate this impressive and arresting thriller." ― Publishers Weekly (starred review) on JUDAS KISS
