When siblings Becca and Jake kill their mother to save their ailing sister Lizzy, they expect relief. Instead they get a sister who talks to their mother's empty chair, hides things around the house, and refuses to cooperate. Lizzy spent her whole life trapped in their mother's suffocating carefrail, isolated, slowly disappearing. Her siblings thought removing the problem would set her free. They were wrong. As Jake unravels under the weight of his guilt and Becca grows obsessed with forcing a recovery that will justify their sacrifice, one thing becomes terrifyingly clear. Lizzy doesn't want freedom. She wants her mother back. And she has been quietly, patiently planning what comes next. For fans of Gillian Flynn, Alice Feeney, and Lisa Jewell, The Coddling is a propulsive psychological drama that will challenge everything you think you know about family loyalty, the limits of love, and what it truly means to save someone who never asked to be saved.©2026 Cynthia Jaax (P)2026 Blue Nettle Books Domestic Thrillers Genre Fiction Psychological Thriller & Suspense
