The novel quickly became an international best-seller, and even before its September publication, it was optioned by NBC Universal for a television mini-series. Two of the Delaney children think their father is innocent, two are not so sure-but as the two sides square off against each other in perhaps their biggest match ever, all of the Delaneys will start to reexamine their shared family history in a very new light.Moriarty’s ninth novel, Apples Never Fall features provocative and emotional scenes with a cinematic sensibility and a cast of vividly drawn characters in conflict with each other and their pasts. But for someone who claims to be innocent, he, like many spouses, seems to have a lot to hide. Later, when Joy goes missing, and Savannah is nowhere to be found, the police question the one person who remains: Stan. The Delaneys are more than happy to give her the small kindness she sorely needs. One night a stranger named Savannah knocks on Stan and Joy’s door, bleeding after a fight with her boyfriend. But that’s okay, now that they’re all successful grown-ups and there is the wonderful possibility of grandchildren on the horizon.
The four Delaney children-Amy, Logan, Troy, and Brooke-were tennis stars in their own right, yet as their father will tell you, none of them had what it took to go all the way. But after 50 years of marriage, they’ve finally sold their famed tennis academy and are ready to start what should be the golden years of their lives.
They’re killers on the tennis court, and off it their chemistry is palpable. The parents, Stan and Joy, are the envy of all of their friends. The Delaneys are fixtures in their community. This is the dilemma facing the four grown Delaney siblings. If your mother was missing, would you tell the police? Even if the most obvious suspect was your father? The Delaney family love one another dearly-it’s just that sometimes they want to murder each other. 2021 Washington Post Best Books of the Yearįrom Liane Moriarty, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers, comes Apples Never Fall, an audiobook that looks at marriage, siblings, and how the people we love the most can hurt us the deepest.
