Description

The Silent Patient meets The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo in this glamorous tale of obsession, rage and revenge, the must-read, twisty new thriller for summer.

‘A wildly imaginative, very dark romance…subversive and highly entertaining.’--Joyce Carol Oates, bestselling author of Blonde and Butcher

‘If you’re looking for a feminist thriller with glamorous Hollywood vibes…oh, friend, this one is definitely for you! 5-star reader review

Revenge has never tasted better . . .

Famous film star Lila Crayne is America's Sweetheart: she's generous and kind, gorgeous and magnetic. A golden girl.

She and her fiancé, visionary filmmaker Kurt Royall, have settled into a stunning New York apartment, and are embarking on a new movie: a modern feminist adaptation of a classic twentieth-century novel.

To prepare for the leading role, Lila begins work with charming and accomplished therapist Jonah Gabriel to dig into the trauma of her past.

Soon, Lila's impeccably manicured life begins to unravel on the therapy couch - and Jonah is just the man to pick up the pieces.

But everyone has a secret, no one is quite who they seem, and before long, careers, reputations and lives are in danger of being irrevocably destroyed . . .
