Emma would do anything to work for the woman who has the job she wants. Carrie is at the top of her game, with a dream career, a baby on the way, and a handsome screenwriter husband. For Emma, with parents who don’t understand her ambition and a serious misstep behind her, this temp position might be her last chance.
It seems at first that this contemporary thriller will follow a predictable path...but wait ... Another solid psychological thriller from Frances, herself a former script editor and producer.
The best part about these characters is that I found them to be nothing like they initially seemed. Even in the final third of the book, I continued to question my original assessments. Everyone had a secret, and I had to keep asking myself: Who am I rooting for now? ... From start to finish, I found the characters, relationships and my perceptions constantly changing.
Outstanding ... Frances, who keeps the suspense high as the action accelerates toward the shattering finale, reinforces her position as a writer to watch.
