Description
When a powerful businessman vanishes on July 4, 1976, he leaves behind a fractured family—and a mistress whose future will take an unexpected direction. Years later, Heloise has transformed her difficult beginnings into a thriving, discreet escort business in suburban Maryland, carefully balancing independence, motherhood, and the demands of a dangerous profession. As pressures from her past and present begin to converge, she is forced to make increasingly desperate choices to protect herself and her young son. A sharply observed work of psychological crime fiction, the novel explores reinvention, secrecy, ambition, and the complicated meanings of survival in Laura Lippman’s finely controlled style.
