The Saint of Spiders: A Gripping Family Saga of Control and Betrayal

Her love was a cage. Her care was a poison. And for forty years, no one saw the spider in the center of the web.

To the sun-scorched community of El Paso, Texas, Christy Tango is a pillar of strength and faith. She is the sainted matriarch who endured the tragic loss of a son, the devoted wife who nursed her husband through his slow decline, and the loving grandmother who holds her fractured family together. Her piety is a performance, her charity is a weapon, and her home is a perfectly curated stage for a lifelong deception.

But for her children, that home was a quiet prison governed by unspoken rules and suffocating control. For her daughter, Carolina, a lifetime of feeling like a stranger in her own family ignites a desperate, decades-long search for the truth.

Armed with a new, tech-savvy husband who refuses to accept the family's toxic code of silence, Carolina begins to unravel the past. A faded photograph, a cryptic entry in her father's old farm ledger, and the cold, hard science of a consumer DNA test blow the lid off a forty-year conspiracy of infidelity, gaslighting, and stolen identity.

As the carefully constructed myths of their childhood crumble, a far more terrifying pattern emerges. The "tragedies" that have plagued the Tango family-the sudden death of an infant son, the suspicious health crises, the chillingly convenient timing of her husband's passing-all seem to lead back to Christy, the ever-present, ever-caring figure at the center of every storm.

Now, with her own son gone and her husband buried, Christy's suffocating attention has settled on her grandson, Jerry. The cycle is beginning anew, and Carolina and her allies are the only ones who can see the web being spun. They have the patterns, the timeline, and a mountain of circumstantial evidence, but they have no proof.

How do you stop a monster that everyone else sees as a saint?

The Saint of Spiders is a masterful work of psychological suspense and a gripping, multi-generational family saga that explores the darkest corners of domestic life. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects, the slow-burn tension of Tana French, and the intricate family secrets of The Last Thing He Told Me, this chilling, unforgettable novel will make you question how well you know the people you love.
