We Begin at the End follows police chief Walk and thirteen-year-old Duchess Day Radley in Cape Haven, California, after convicted killer Vincent King is released from prison, reopening old wounds tied to a decades-old tragedy. The novel won the CWA Gold Dagger for Best Crime Novel, the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year, and became a New York Times bestseller. Tall Oaks centers on a grieving mother whose young son vanishes from an outwardly peaceful town, exposing the secrets neighbors keep behind closed doors. All the Wicked Girls is set in the small Alabama town of Grace, where the disappearance of model student Summer Ryan forces her sister Raine to confront uncomfortable truths about friendship, family, and reputation. Whitaker returns to familiar themes across all three: ordinary communities harboring extraordinary secrets, and a past that never truly stays buried. Read in any order, these novels reward patient readers with twisty plots and genuine emotional payoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree acclaimed standalone crime thrillers in one paperback set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes We Begin at the End, winner of the CWA Gold Dagger and Theakston Crime Novel of the Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAtmospheric small-town settings with morally complex characters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for fans of Tana French and Dennis Lehane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new paperback condition, ready to gift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value bundle to explore an award-winning author's backlist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe Begin at the End — A California police chief and a fierce young girl confront the fallout when a convicted killer returns to their small town.\u003cbr\u003eTall Oaks — A grieving mother's search for her missing son uncovers the hidden fractures beneath a picture-perfect town.\u003cbr\u003eAll the Wicked Girls — The disappearance of a beloved student in small-town Alabama forces her sister to dig into uncomfortable family and community secrets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChris Whitaker is a British author whose crime novels have been translated into more than thirty languages and have won the CWA Gold Dagger, the CWA John Creasey Dagger, the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year, and the Ned Kelly International Award.
