Author Sarah Perry

“On the night her mother was murdered, twelve-year-old Sarah Perry was asleep in the same house. Haunted by fractured memories of that night, and by the turbulent years that follow the murder, she tracks down the truth of what really happened. Ms. Perry’s memoir of her Maine childhood, After the Eclipse: A Mother’s Murder, a Daughter’s Search, is both a gripping mystery and a heart-breaking love letter to the fiercely devoted mother she lost.” – Read ME recommending author Tess Gerritsen.
