Resumen del Editor

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the beloved author of Big Little Lies, Apples Never Fall, and The Husband’s Secret comes a moving novel of love, marriage, family, and trying to find certainty in a fragile world.

“A riveting story so wild you don’t know how she’ll land it, and then she does, on a dime.”—Anne Lamott

Life is full of twists and turns you never see coming. But what if you did?

The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

There’s the well-dressed man in seat 4C who is compulsively checking his watch, desperate not to miss his eleven-year-old daughter’s musical. Further back, a mother of two is frantically trying to keep her toddler entertained and her infant son quiet. How did she ever think being a stay-at-home mom would be easier than being a lawyer? Ethan is lost in thought; he’s flying back from his first funeral. A young couple has just gotten married; she’s still wearing her wedding dress. An emergency room nurse is looking forward to traveling the world once she retires in a few years, it’s going to be so much fun! If they ever get off the tarmac. . . .

Suddenly a woman none of them know stands up. She makes predictions about how and when everyone on board will die. Some dismiss her. Others will do everything they can to make sure her prophecies do not come to pass. All of them will be forever changed.

How would you live your life if you thought you knew how it would end? Would you love who you love or try to love someone else? Would you stay married? Would you stop drinking? Would you call up your ex-best friend you haven’t spoken to in years? Would you quit your job?

Intricately plotted, with the wonderful wit Liane Moriarty has become famous for, Here One Moment brilliantly looks at friends, lovers, and family and how we manage to hold onto them in our harried modern lives.

These narrators brought the story to life

Really smart use of two narrators and both are pitch perfect. I've read everything by Liane Moriarty so it's safe to say I'm a fan. I enjoyed this book so much: immediately engaging plot, interesting characters, and the tone is delightful. I laughed, I cried, I gasped.

Great story

Great story. Great audio! I didn’t expect to get to know so many of the characters. I love the way many of them were actually connected without knowing it until near the end. It may be triggering to those suffering from depression or suicide.

Fun story, great humor, original plot

Loved the characters and listening to the story unfold and connect. Liane Moriarty is my favorite author- I just connect with her humor, her insights and turn of phrase is spot on. And fabulous narration.

Love Liane Moriarity

This is a Wonderful story well written and well narrated highly recommend🥰 this author does not disappoint!

Too much of the death lady!

I loved the narrator of all the parts other than Cherry. Her voice totally grated on me and I found her many, many chapters uninteresting. Geraldine Hakewell is phenomenal. She doesn't differentiate much for male voices but the rest she nails! The rest of the story held my interest. It is extremely long...so much ruminating.

Unusual and very entertaining story.

The story was fun and unusual and the characters were interesting with their varying personalities and backstories. I have listened to everything available by Liane Moriarty, and especially love listening to Carole Lee - the best narrator/storyteller! Loved the book.

A Treasure Trove of Characters

When I saw there was a new Liane Moriarty book out I couldn’t hit BUY fast enough. The narrator was divine as always and the way the story wove together was absolutely delicious. It’s the kind of book you are sad to finish

LOVE IT - just as all her other books.

LOVE IT - just as all her other books.
Fantastic story and also the narrators. LOVE Caronline Lee from her other titles, and the other narrator was just as fantastic.
Thank you <3
I cannot wait for your next book and hope it won't take too long ;o)

Pure entertainment!

I think it’s my favorite Liane Moriarity book yet! And Caroline Lee is as wonderful as ever

Weaving of stories was so good!

From the beginning it drew me in. I could vividly picture the scenes unfolding. I could also imagine alternative scenarios.
