You Will Know Me

A "shocking and perfect" bestseller about family and ambition from the award-winning author of Dare Me and The Turnout (New York Times Book Review​).

How far will you go to achieve a dream? That's the question a celebrated coach poses to Katie and Eric Knox after he sees their daughter Devon, a gymnastics prodigy and Olympic hopeful, compete. For the Knoxes there are no limits -- until a violent death rocks their close-knit gymnastics community and everything they have worked so hard for is suddenly at risk.

As rumors swirl among the other parents, Katie tries frantically to hold her family together while also finding herself irresistibly drawn to the crime itself. What she uncovers -- about her daughter's fears, her own marriage, and herself -- forces Katie to consider whether there's any price she isn't willing to pay to achieve Devon's dream.

From a writer with "exceptional gifts for making nerves jangle and skin crawl" (Janet Maslin), You Will Know Me is a breathless rollercoaster of a novel about the desperate limits of parental sacrifice, furtive desire, and the staggering force of ambition.

Gah! I really did not like this book :-( None of the characters were likable and I found the whole story line a little silly and ultimately unsatisfying. Am I the only one?? I listened to the audio book so maybe it was the narrator's voice that was so off putting?? The voices, especially the brother Drew's, were annoying and I just couldn't get past that. I never got taken away by the plot. Megan Abbott is a fantastic author but this was definitely not my cup of tea.

Very Jodi Picoult-like. Some parts aren't well written, but overall I really liked it. Being a huge gymnastics fan influenced that. Somewhat predictable, but not a bad book at all.
