Alice, the daughter of a wealthy innkeeper in Kilkenny, grows up watching her mother wither under the constraints of family responsibilities--and she vows that she will never suffer the same fate. In time, she discovers she has a flair for making money, and takes her father's flourishing business to new heights. But as her riches and stature grow, so too do rumors about her private life. By the time she marries her fourth husband--the three earlier are dead--a storm of local gossip and resentment culminates in a life-threatening accusation . . .

A virtual book club listens in horror when the screen freezes and one of their members is murdered in this twisty and delicious thriller from the author of Someone Else's Life, perfect for fans of First Lie Wins and The Writing Retreat.
Five of the most prominent book influencers in the US make up an exclusive virtual book club that's the envy of the online book world. Once a month, they get on a video call to sip cocktails, chat about social media campaigns and book events, and discuss their monthly book club pick.
Until one meeting, when all of their screens freeze, and they listen to gut wrenching screams as one of them is brutally attacked. It feels like an eternity before the video call drops--and thus begins the frantic texts and phone calls as they try to figure out who was murdered and why.
As the investigation unearths secrets each of them needs to keep buried, the jealousies, hidden resentments, and trouble in their personal lives begin to surface. The remaining four women are suspicious of each other, pointing fingers to take the heat off their own indiscretions. But if they want to figure out who killed their friend, they need to band together and put past hurts behind them. Or one of them will be next.

So when a man drags her into an alley at knifepoint, she knows nobody will come to her rescue. Forced into a fight for survival, Alice leaves the man desperately wounded by his own knife and flees with her life.
When Alice tells her lover and they rush back to the alley, the ground is bare. There is no wounded attacker. There is no body. There is no blood. There is no knife. There is nothing to report to the police.
But unbeknownst to Alice, one other person knows what happened in the alley: Owen Pall, a private detective slumming it with unsavory divorce work. Hired to tail a possibly straying husband, Owen followed the man to the alley and witnessed the thwarted assault--and saved the man's life.
