Summary

Juliet and Henry never met。 Yet their lives resonate across generations when Juliet finds a photo with an urgent message in her uncle Henry’s final belongings。

Juliet Barton is reeling from a devasting divorce and her career in shambles。 Then she’s rocked by her mother’s sudden death。 Buried in grief as she sorts her late mother’s effects, Juliet stumbles upon the final belongings of her uncle Henry, who died tragically in Italy in 1971。

Hidden among Henry’s effects is an old Polaroid of a mausoleum with a mysterious note scrawled on the back。 As Juliet unearths more and more details that reveal her and Henry’s uncanny similarities, she finds herself compelled to go to Italy to locate the crypt in the photo, convinced it contains something Henry wanted to be found。

But as she tracks down clues to her twenty-something uncle’s cutting-edge filmmaking in Hollywood, renowned coverage of The Vietnam War, and link to a 1960s rock icon, Juliet uncovers a haunting truth that pushes her into the line of danger。

Will unraveling Henry’s hidden past put Juliet’s own future at risk?

In this brilliantly compelling, suspenseful, and intoxicating tale told through the interwoven narratives of Juliet in the present-day and Henry decades ago, Final Belongings navigates the trauma of estrangement across generations, the secrets we bury, and the things we try to escape at any cost。

I went into this book with little knowledge of its plot, and I’m so thankful I did。 Final Belongings is one of those books where you just go along for the ride and let the dual character arcs and storyline reveal themselves organically in the author’s masterful hands。 I tried to predict what would happen several times along the way and was so, so wrong—and I read lots of mysteries and thrillers, so consider this high praise!  Juliet and Henry seem so different at first glance。 Even withstanding I went into this book with little knowledge of its plot, and I’m so thankful I did。 Final Belongings is one of those books where you just go along for the ride and let the dual character arcs and storyline reveal themselves organically in the author’s masterful hands。 I tried to predict what would happen several times along the way and was so, so wrong—and I read lots of mysteries and thrillers, so consider this high praise!  Juliet and Henry seem so different at first glance。 Even withstanding the different time periods they are growing up in, the only thing that seems to tie them together is their family。 But just wait。 Without revealing any spoilers, the two interwoven storylines come together beautifully and brilliantly to highlight just how universal the human experience is, and how the past is never as far away as it seems。 This is one of those rare novels that is able to successfully combine expert suspense with lovely, sometimes heartbreaking, prose—an especially impressive feat for a debut author。 Highly recommend—it's a story that has stuck with me ever since reading it。 。。。more
