"MahersSocial Misconductis a thriller for this very moment, full of the ways our social conduct can be used against us, and I was on the edge of my seat trying to decide if Candace was a victim or master-manipulator. You wont be able to put this fast-paced puzzle-box of a novel down." (Catherine McKenzie, bestselling author of The Good Liar )
