Why we’re excited
June Lyons lost the baby she was carrying in a skiing crash, only weeks from giving birth, and cannot remember the accident. As she tries to piece the day together, she starts asking why she was on the slopes at all, and why her husband was not there.
Carola Lovering wrote Tell Me Lies, which became a Hulu series. This one is set in Aspen and runs a second timeline through June's early years with her sister. It suits readers who prefer domestic suspense built on memory and marriage over body counts.

From the publisher
From the bestselling author of the Hulu sensation Tell Me Lies comes a gripping puzzle of a novel about the aftermath of a tragic accident and the fault lines it exposes in a seemingly perfect marriage.
When you can’t remember the truth, who tells your story?
June Lyons has built a beautiful life in Aspen, Colorado, where she lives with her husband Shep and their young daughter Ivy. Shep is a bestselling author whose skyrocketing career has put June's own ambitions on the backburner, but it's a small price to pay. She has a gorgeous, mountainside home, and her sister Penny―her closest friend and confidante―lives just across town. But when June loses her second pregnancy in a tragic ski accident just weeks before her due date, the family's world is immediately shattered, and everything that she thought she knew about her life is thrown into question.
In the months that follow June's devastating loss, her despair is exacerbated by the fact that she can't remember anything about the crash. Why was she on skis, so late in her pregnancy? Why wasn't Shep with her? And what if it wasn't actually an accident? Determined to find the answers that no one seems able to provide, June begins to piece together what happened that day, intent on unveiling the truth at any cost―even if it reveals something about herself, or her marriage, that she’d rather not face.
Brimming with secrets and twists and including a past timeline that follows June and Penny through their early years in Aspen―and the beginning of June and Shep’s relationship―Whiteout excavates the thin line between fact and fiction, memory and reality, as it explores the complexities of marriage, sisterhood, motherhood, and grief.
