Interior decorator Kit Finn has decided to take a little
time off and spend a week at Islamorada, Florida. A small,
peaceful and tropical getaway is just what she needs to
recharge and, possibly, turn her life around in some way. On
her final day there, she bumps into, literally, a rather
attractive man in the hotel restaurant. A short time later,
she finds him in a shop where she has been browsing. He
approaches her and asks her to have dinner with him that
night. As Kit has decided to start taking some risks in her
life, she accepts.
Their dinner goes quite well and she feels safe enough in
accepting an invitation to his hotel room for an after
dinner drink. They connect in ways that Kit had never
thought was possible. The next morning, they kiss goodbye
and Kit leaves for the airport. On the way there, she
receives a call from the man identifying himself as Matt
Healy. He wants to see her again back in New York and she
agrees. When she shows up for that date later in the week,
her life seems thrust into the Twilight Zone while also
putting her in extreme danger.
Kit realizes that her split second decision to take a risk
might cause her to lose everything.
There are those books that, once you begin reading them, you
start to resent anything that takes you away from them
before you have reached that last page. THE WRONG MAN is one
such book. I had initially intended to look through a few
pages before going to bed and was on page 75 before I
remembered that it was way past my bedtime.
Kate White creates a puzzle of the most intricate and
chilling kind in THE WRONG MAN. The reader gets clues along
with Kit and there is no guessing ahead. The only way that
you will discover what is going on is to continue to read
the book until the very end. There is plenty of creepiness
to go around, which means that you might just want to read
it with some lights on.
THE WRONG MAN is set in a world that readers can easily
become a part of and take each unnerving step with Kit Finn
in order to solve this life-threatening mystery. Just when
you think you know what's going on; Ms. White provides you
with more eeriness.
Whatever you do, don't miss this sinister and enthralling
treat for the investigator inside of you.
SUMMARY
New York Times bestselling author of Eyes on
You and The
Sixes delivers a compelling thriller of mistaken identity
and psychological suspense about an accomplished career
woman who thinks she’s met the man of her dreams—but instead
he turns out to be her worst nightmare. Bold and adventurous in her work as one of Manhattan’s
hottest interior decorators, Kit Finn couldn’t be tamer in
her personal life. So, while on vacation in the Florida
Keys, Kit resolves to do something risky for once. Flirting
with Matt Healy—the rugged stranger she literally bumps into
at her hotel—is one thing. Going back to his room after
their date is another. Instead, Matt offers to cook her dinner when they’re both
back in the city. But when Kit arrives at his luxury
apartment ready for the date of a lifetime, who is the man
who opens the door? Kit’s usually so good at reading people. How could she have
been taken in by the deceptions of a con man? And why has he
targeted her? Piece by piece, Kit realizes that this
treachery goes a lot deeper, and gets a lot deadlier. Now
the only way out is to expose the vicious puppet master
who’s turned her life upside-down. Adrenaline-charged and filled with harrowing twists at every
turn, The Wrong Man will leave readers guessing until the
final page.
