Thriller
Sometimes the truth is darker than fiction. Liza Cole has thirty days to write the thriller that could put her back on the bestseller list. In the meantime, sheโs struggling to start a family with her husband, who is distracted by the disappearance of his best friend, Nick. With stresses weighing her down in both her professional and her personal lives, Liza escapes into writing her latest heroine, Beth. Beth is a new mother who suspects her husband is cheating on her while sheโs home alone caring for their newborn. Angry and betrayed, she sets out to catch him in the act and make him pay for shattering the illusion of their perfect life. But before she realizes it, sheโs tossing the body of her husbandโs mistress into the East River. Then the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur. Nickโs body is dragged from the same river and Lizaโs husband is arrested for his murder. Before her deadline is up, Liza will have to face up to the truths about the people around her, including herself. If she doesnโt, the end of her heroineโs story could be the end of her own.
