Last Night book by Luanne Rice
Amidst a relentless blizzard sweeping across the eastern seaboard, the frigid shores of Rhode Island cradle acclaimed artist Maddie Morrison, seeking solace from the tempestuous currents of a bitter divorce within the embrace of the famed Ocean House. In the aftermath, her lifeless form is discovered shrouded beneath a quilt of snow, and her young daughter, CeCe, vanishes without a discernible trace.
For Detective Conor Reid, his sibling Tom, a commanding figure in the coast guard, and Maddie's sorrowful sister, Hadley, the luxurious hotel transforms into the epicenter of a probing inquiry. Entrapped by the relentless blizzard, they must weather the storm and unravel the enigma of who among the young mother's acquaintances harbored sinister intentions. Tales unfurl of a convoluted romantic history, weaving through ancient jealousies and festering resentments that cut deep. A backdrop of avarice, fury, and vengeance sets the stage for the perfect concoction leading to murder. The tempest of a storm has merely just commenced.
