From the bestselling author ofÂ Everything I Never Told You,Â a riveting novel that traces the intertwined fates of the picture-perfect Richardson family and the enigmatic mother and daughter who upend their lives.

In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is plannedâ€”from the layout of the winding roads, to the colors of the houses, to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is playing by the rules.

Enter Mia Warrenâ€”an enigmatic artist and single motherâ€”who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenaged daughter Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons. Soon Mia and Pearl become more than tenants: all four Richardson children are drawn to the mother-daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a mysterious past and a disregard for the status quo that threatens to upend this carefully ordered community.

When old family friends of the RichardsonsÂ attempt to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody battle erupts that dramatically divides the townâ€”and puts Mia and Elena on opposing sides.Â Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena is determined to uncover the secrets in Miaâ€™s past. But her obsession will come at unexpected and devastating costs.

Little Fires Everywhere explores the weight of secrets, the nature of art and identity, and the ferocious pull of motherhoodâ€”and the danger of believing that following the rules can avert disaster.
