A BETTER WORLD
The acclaimed author of Good Neighbors returns with a provocative and disconcerting novel about a woman questioning her new home in an exclusive company town after a night out goes terribly wrong.
Welcome to Plymouth Valley. A company town owned by the powerful conglomerate BetterWorld, it features state-of-the-art houses, pristine country clubs that are always open, and pantries that never go empty. If you're lucky enough to live here, you never have to leave. Ever.
Linda knows her family is lucky that her husband's job allowed them to move here. She fervently hopes that Plymouth Valley is the glorious fresh start her family so desperately needs. But in a new place filled with the one percent, she's terribly lonely.
Linda is surprised but relieved when the four most important women in Plymouth Valley invite her on a night out. She's determined to win them over, but things go disastrously wrong when a party-crasher warns Linda she's in over her head. The events that follow and their explosive aftermath send her on a downward spiral as she questions everything she thought she knew about her new home, BetterWorld, her marriage, and most of all, her own instincts.
Sarah Langan, a Columbia MFA graduate and three-time recipient of the Bram Stoker Award, is the author of several novels including A Better World and Good Neighbors. She grew up on Long Island and she currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband and daughters. Find out more at SarahLangan.com.
