Review:

Megan Miranda strikes again—and wow, did she deliver. She’s been on my auto-buy list for years, and her latest thriller? A pulse-pounding, anxiety-laced masterpiece.

Beckett Bowery never planned to return to her hometown nestled in the Virginia mountains. It’s a place steeped in academic prestige and personal trauma. Her parents were professors at the local university, and Beckett herself was a student there—until one tragic night during her senior year shattered everything. A deadly fire. Two classmates gone. Her roommate, Adalyn, vanished. And Beckett? Left behind with suspicion hanging over her like smoke.

She swore she’d never go back. But fate has other plans.

Years later, Beckett’s daughter Delilah is accepted to the same university. Despite the dread clawing at her chest, Beckett drives her to campus, hoping to leave the past buried. But when she receives a dropped call from Delilah’s phone shortly after returning home, everything changes. Her daughter is missing.

Now Beckett must return to the very place she’s tried to forget. As she searches for Delilah, long-buried secrets begin to surface. The town, the school, even her own family—nothing is as it seems. And the deeper she digs, the more tangled the truth becomes.

This book had me breathless. The eerie tension, the emotional stakes, the creeping dread that no matter how far we run, the past always finds us—it’s all here. Miranda masterfully weaves suspense with heartbreak, and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.

Thank you NetGalley and Simon Element for the chance to read this heart racing, haunting thriller. *You Belong Here* is a chilling reminder that some places never let you go.
