- Synopsis
- &“This debut thriller reads like The Devil Wears Prada meets Single White Female. I couldn&’t put it down.&”—Catherine Steadman, author of Something in the Water and Mr. NobodyShe&’s borrowed your life. But what if she decides to keep it? Glamorous Margot Jones is the fashion editor at glossy magazine Haute. Pregnant with her first child, Margot&’s carefully curated life is the object of other women&’s envy—who wouldn&’t want her successful career, loving husband, beautiful house, and stylish wardrobe? Maggie, a freelance journalist, certainly knows she doesn&’t measure up. But when she gets the temp job covering Margot&’s maternity leave, Maggie seizes the chance to live a flashier life—even if it&’s only for a few months. But the simultaneous arrival of Margot&’s baby and a brutal end to her oldest friendship sends Margot into a spiral of insecurity and suspicion; normal preoccupations of new motherhood turn into dark and frightening paranoia. Who is the vicious online troll mocking Margot&’s facade of perfection and threatening to expose a dark secret she&’s spent years concealing? Are Maggie&’s newfound ambitions and plucky enthusiasm as innocent as they seem? And what happens when Margot is ready to return to her old life—especially if Maggie doesn&’t want to leave?
