Perfect for you if...

You love psychological thrillers with unreliable narrators and twisted timelines that keep you guessing until the final pages.
You're drawn to stories where the past catches up with the present in ways the protagonist can't escape or outrun.
You appreciate tight plotting and moral ambiguity, especially when characters are equally guilty and equally sympathetic.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer cosy mysteries or light crime fiction without graphic violence or morally complex protagonists.
You need clear heroes and villains rather than protagonists who've genuinely committed terrible things.
You're looking for a standalone mystery with a neat resolution rather than a cat-and-mouse game between two equally dangerous women.

About this book

Paris Peralta is arrested in her bathroom covered in blood, holding a straight razor, with her celebrity husband dead in the bathtub. She expects to be charged with murder, but her greater concern is her hidden past. Media attention surrounding her arrest threatens to expose her true identity and destroy the life she has built. Twenty-five years earlier, Ruby Reyes, known as the Ice Queen, was convicted of a similar murder in a trial that drew attention in Canada during the early nineties. When Reyes is unexpectedly released from prison, she recognizes Paris and threatens to reveal her secrets. Paris must confront the dark past she escaped, as facing two murder charges would be worse than one.
