Description:
From the bestselling author of True Crime Story, Joseph Knox presents a tense and intricate psychological thriller that blurs the lines of identity and deception. Lynch, a con-artist fleeing a botched job in France, arrives in London broke and looking over his shoulder. A chance encounter with Bobbie, a vulnerable heiress, leads to a startling proposition when she mistakes him for her long-lost brother, Heydon, who vanished five years ago. Sensing opportunity despite the inherent danger, Lynch is drawn into the Pierce family's opulent but secretive world. At the behest of Heydon's formidable mother, Miranda, he agrees to impersonate the missing son, aiming to uncover the truth behind his disappearance and potentially flush out a killer. As Lynch delves deeper into Heydon's past, he realises the man was entangled with dangerous, powerful people in London's lavish underbelly. Dark forces are stirred, and Lynch soon discovers that Heydon's paranoia was justified – someone was watching his every move, and they will kill to keep their secrets buried. For the first time, Lynch is in a life-or-death situation where his usual cunning and lies may not be enough to save him. This standalone novel blends noir sensibility with a contemporary crime thriller, exploring themes of identity, family secrets, power, wealth, and the constant manipulation of truth. This uncorrected proof copy is a rare item for collectors interested in the early stages of a book's publication and a unique opportunity to experience this gripping story before its official release.
