"Blade-sharp, whip-smart, and genuinely original - a thriller to
refresh your faith in the genre, your belief that a story can still
outpace and outsmart you."- A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times
bestselling author of The Woman in The Window "Clever and
surprising...The superb character-driven plot delivers an
astonishing, believable jolt."-Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Deserves two big thumbs up. Readers will be gripped by this
astonishing story in which one gasp-inducing twist follows on the
heels of another. A unique page-turner that just begs to be turned
into a movie." -Booklist (starred review) "Sly, sinister...a
white-knuckled read. There are gasp-worthy surprises, of course,
and the exquisite and lurid twists will reveal themselves in
time."--Vanity Fair A smart, witty, crackling novel of
psychological suspense in which a girl from a hardscrabble small
town meets a gorgeous Instagram influencer from the big city, with
a murderous twist that will shock even the most savvy reader. On a
beautiful October morning in rural Maine, a homicide investigator
from the state police pulls into the hard-luck town of Copper
Falls. The local junkyard is burning, and the town pariah Lizzie
Oullette is dead-with her husband, Dwayne, nowhere to be found. As
scandal ripples through the community, Detective Ian Bird's
inquiries unexpectedly lead him away from small-town Maine to a
swank city townhouse several hours south. Adrienne Richards, blonde
and fabulous social media influencer and wife of a disgraced
billionaire, had been renting Lizzie's tiny lake house as a country
getaway...even though Copper Falls is anything but a resort town.
As Adrienne's connection to the case becomes clear, so too does her
connection to Lizzie, who narrates their story from beyond the
grave. Each woman is desperately lonely in her own way, and they
navigate a relationship that cuts across class boundaries:
transactional, complicated, and, finally, deadly. A Gone Girl for
the gig economy, this is a story of privilege, identity, and
cunning, as two devious women from opposite worlds discover the
dangers of coveting someone else's life. "Both amusingly satirical
and darkly bloody."-The Washington Post
