The Night We Lost Him

Fast, furious, and completely rapt is how you will move through this mystery set in Brooklyn and Santa Barbara about half-siblings trying to get to the bottom of their father's last few hours alive because something—many things—aren't exactly adding up.

Liam Noone was a hotel magnate and a loving father. Married three times, he had a deep love for his ability to create beautiful properties that feel like you are in someone's incredibly crafted home instead of a soulless hotel. He kept his three families mostly siloed, and so when two of his children, Nora and Sam, go off on a quest to get to the bottom of what happened when their father fell to his death at his favorite place in the world, Windbreak—just south of Santa Barbara on the storied Padaro Lane—they uncover an underlying thread that solves the puzzle of his life.
