"Tightly paced and skillfully plotted, The Lost Night is a remarkable debut."-Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author of Luckiest Girl Alive

What really happened the night Edie died? Years later, her best friend Lindsay will learn how unprepared she is for the truth.

In 2009, Edie had New York´s social world in her thrall. Mercurial and beguiling, she was the shining star of a group of recent graduates living in a Brooklyn loft and treating New York like their playground. When Edie´s body was found near a suicide note at the end of a long, drunken night, no one could believe it. Grief, shock, and resentment scattered the group and brought the era to an abrupt end.

A decade later, Lindsay has come a long way from the drug-addled world of Calhoun Lofts. She has devoted best friends, a cozy apartment, and a thriving career as a magazine´s head fact-checker. But when a chance reunion leads Lindsay to discover an unsettling video from that hazy night, she starts to wonder if Edie was actually murdered-and, worse, if she herself was involved. As she rifles through those months in 2009-combing through case files, old technology, and her fractured memories-Lindsay is forced to confront the demons of her own violent history to bring the truth to light.

Praise for The Lost Night

I want more from this talented new voice." -Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author of Luckiest Girl Alive

"Exciting, gripping, disquieting-The Lost Night is more than a thriller. It´s a magnificent examination of the dark corners of our souls. Andrea Bartz has written this season´s must-read novel."-Rene Denfeld, bestselling author of The Child Finder

"Debut author Bartz pens a captivating psychological suspense novel full of moving pieces and is expertly paced. The tension is unmatched as the pieces fall into place, but not without the protagonist second-guessing herself...This whip-smart and mysterious read is perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and Paula Hawkins."-Library Journal (starred)

"A riveting debut with, yes, an echo of The Girl on the Train."-Booklist (starred)

"The Lost Night is a fun, smart mystery that kept me guessing until the end. Its protagonist Lindsay Bach, a sharp, creative, self-analytical millennial, is the sort of character we expect to find in literary novels where not much happens; encountering her here, in the context of a potential murder, is a pleasurable surprise."-Adelle Waldman, author of The Love Affairs of Nathaniel P
