The Night Olivia Fell [Paperback] McDonald, Christina

Your daughter is in the hospital. She's brain-dead. And the police say she jumped. But you know Olivia would never do that. Kat wakes to every parent's nightmare: a 3am call that her teenage daughter has fallen from a bridge. As Olivia lies in a coma, pregnant and beyond saving, Kat has 72 hours to piece together what really happened that night. What she uncovers — about Olivia's secret boyfriend, the baby's father, and the night itself — will shatter everything she thought she knew about her daughter. Christina McDonald braids together a mother's desperate investigation with Olivia's own hidden story, building to a twist that reframes the entire novel. The dual timeline structure keeps the tension crackling as past and present collide. For fans of Liane Moriarty and Lisa Jewell who want their domestic suspense with genuine emotional weight. A debut that delivers both the mystery and the maternal grief.
