In this compulsively readable debut, set between London
and Sicily over one blood-drenched week in the dead of
summer, an identical twin reveals the crazy lies and twists
she'll go through to not only steal her sister's perfect
life, but to keep on living it. Alvie Knightly is a trainwreck: aimless, haphazard, and
pretty much constantly drunk. Alvie's existence is made even
more futile in contrast to that of her identical and perfect
twin sister, Beth. Alvie lives on social media, eats kebabs
for breakfast, and gets stopped at security when the sex toy
in her carry-on starts buzzing. Beth is married to a hot,
rich Italian, dotes on her beautiful baby boy, and has
always been their mother's favorite. The twins' days of
having anything in common besides their looks are long gone. When Beth sends Alvie a first-class plane ticket to visit
her in Italy, Alvie is reluctant to go. But when she gets
fired from the job she hates and her flatmates kick her out
on the streets, a luxury villa in glitzy Taormina suddenly
sounds more appealing. Beth asks Alvie to swap places with
her for just a few hours so she can go out unnoticed by her
husband. Alvie jumps at the chance to take over her sister's
life--if only temporarily. But when the night ends with Beth
dead at the bottom of the pool, Alvie realizes that this is
her chance to change her life. Alvie quickly discovers that living Beth's life is harder
than she thought. What was her sister hiding from her
husband? And why did Beth invite her to Italy at all? As
Alvie digs deeper, she uncovers Mafia connections, secret
lovers, attractive hitmen, and one extremely corrupt priest,
all of whom are starting to catch on to her charade. Now
Alvie has to rely on all the skills that made her
unemployable--a turned-to-11 sex drive, a love of guns,
lying to her mother--if she wants to keep her million-dollar
prize. She is uncensored, unhinged, and unforgettable.
