Publisher's Summary
The Wayside is a haunting, elegantly drawn psychological thriller perfect for fans of The Secret History, When We Were Villains and The Maidens.
When Kate Cleary’s son, Jake, dies at his elite liberal arts college, she refuses to believe it was the suicide it appeared to be. Something sinister is at play, and Kate becomes determined to retrace Jake’s steps during his final days. Descending into a spiral of obsession that threatens her grip on reality, Kate falls farther into a dangerous mystery even as she gets closer to the terrifying truth that Jake himself wanted to keep hidden.
Combining elements of dark academia and domestic fiction with a modern bent, The Wayside is a sharply observed story of grief, devotion, and the secrets we keep from those who love us most.

Beautiful narration
Wonderful twisted exploration of grief. Of following your instincts even when it feels they have been obliterated. Stunningly performed by Lauren Fortgang (always a delight to listen to her)
