A novel about Ophir—not her real name—who starts a confessional podcast about her years on the run around the globe, in an unforgettable story about the costs of freedom and the inescapable pull of home.
What does come through...is how Ophir’s life got derailed by her first scam and how she battles against the law and her own psyche in a novel that keeps gaining force.
Thrilling ... Ophir is an endlessly companiable narrator despite her patently unreliable version of events, which careens like a roller coaster from one scrape, mistake, or escape to the next. It’s a blast.
