Liane Moriarty’s Here One Moment is a brilliantly constructed tale that looks at free will and destiny, grief and love, and the endless struggle to maintain certainty and control in an uncertain world. A modern-day Jane Austen who humorously skewers social mores while spinning a web of mystery.

Liane Moriarty is the author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Big Little Lies, Apples Never Fall, The Husband’s Secret, and Truly Madly Guilty; the New York Times bestsellers Nine Perfect Strangers, What Alice Forgot, and The Last Anniversary; The Hypnotist’s Love Story; and Three Wishes. Three of her novels have been adapted for the screen, including the Emmy-winning HBO limited series, Big Little Lies. She lives in Sydney, Australia, with her husband and two children.

“Liane Moriarty has done it again (and again and again.) The always terrific cast of characters, fine writing and sense of humor. And this time a riveting story that is so wild that you don’t know how she’ll land it, and then she does, on a dime.”—Anne Lamott, New York Times bestselling author

In Here One Moment, Moriarty poses this unnerving question to readers: if you knew you only had a certain amount of time left to live, would you do things differently?

In the opening pages of Here One Moment, Moriarty introduces us to an ensemble cast of travelers boarding an ordinary domestic flight. There is the joyous newlywed couple still dressed in their wedding finery; the over-whelmed mother traveling with toddler and infant in tow; the empty nesters on their way home from their long planned cross-country trip; the frantic father desperate to get back in time for his daughter’s school play; and an unremarkable older woman who will soon alter the lives of every passenger on that fateful flight. It was this woman who, just minutes before landing, suddenly rises from her seat and—with startling efficiency—shares with each passenger the age and cause of their death. For some, these predictions are a fun bit of macabre, for others even a strange comfort (death at age 103 quietly at home in bed!), but for six passengers, the prophecies are deeply unsettling as “the Death Lady” (as she will come to be known) predicts their end is in the very near future. Most are able to convince themselves this encounter was nothing more than the ravings of an unwell woman—that is until her predictions start coming to pass. 

A deft rumination on free will and destiny and our innate need for certainty in an uncertain world Here One Moment is the next great addition to Moriarty’s oeuvre.  .
