In this twisty psychological thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of The Girl Before, an actress plays both sides of a murder investigation.
A compelling read . . . redefines the concept of an unreliable narrator . . . [a] rich, nuanced, highly literary take on the Gone Girl theme.Booklist (starred review)
A struggling actor, a Brit in America without a green card, Claire
needs work and money to survive. Then she gets both. But nothing like
she expected.
Claire agrees to become a decoy for a firm of
divorce lawyers. Hired to entrap straying husbands, she must catch them
on tape with their seductive propositions.
The rules? Never
hit on the mark directly. Make it clear youre available, but he has to
proposition you, not the other way around. The firm is after evidence,
not coercion. The innocent have nothing to hide.
Then the game changes.
When the wife of one of Claires targets is violently murdered, the
cops are sure the husband is to blame. Desperate to catch him before he
kills again, they enlist Claire to lure him into a confession.
Claire can do this. Shes brilliant at assuming a voice and an
identity. For a woman whos mastered the art of manipulation, how
difficult could it be to tempt a killer into a trap?
But who is the decoy . . . and who is the prey?
