ABOUT THE BOOK

After a whirlwind romance, quiet librarian Martha married Alan. But when she thinks she sees his mask slip, she starts to fear that his frequent travels might be a cover for something far more sinister.

Unsure of her own instincts, Martha turns to an old friend, Lily Kintner, who once helped her escape a toxic relationship in grad school. But what Martha doesn’t know is that Lily has a dark side of her own…
