Description
Parasite meets Such a Fun Age in a scorching debut that is as heartbreaking as it is thrilling, examining the intersection of race, class, and female friendship, and the devastating consequences of everyday actions.
After her best friend’s mysterious death, Elizabeth Smith’s picture-perfect life in the Memphis suburbs has spiraled out of control—so much so that she hires a personal assistant to keep her on track. Composed and elegant, Brianna is exactly who she needs and slides so neatly into Elizabeth’s life, almost like she belonged there from the start. Soon, the assistant Elizabeth hired to distract her from her obsession with her friend’s death is the same person working with her to uncover the truth behind it.
Because Brianna has questions too.
About the Author
Sara Koffi is a thriller writer from Memphis, TN, which means she’s always rooting for The Grizzlies and always catching up on Netflix cult documentaries. She’s also an overenthusiastic cat mom and perennially behind on reading her TBR pile (despite this she continues to purchase new books). As a writer, she strives to explore the nuances of “unlikable female characters” and humanize Black women by giving them space on the page to breathe.
