About this book

A deadly game of manipulation and deception begins in a shocking psychological thriller by the authors of Gravewater Lake and The Last Girl Left. Evelyn Hughes has it all—a job she loves at a hot gaming studio, an adoring boyfriend, and a tight-knit circle of friends, including her brilliant bestie, Allison—until a series of increasingly unnerving events threaten to unravel her perfect life.

Messages she didn’t send, being blamed for things she didn’t do, and the creeping sensation that she is being followed. As the incidents grow more personal, driving a wedge between Evelyn and those she loves, she finds herself isolated and alone. Then Allison is brutally murdered, and Evelyn becomes the prime suspect. With the pressure mounting, Evelyn is desperate to clear her name. But the more she discovers, the more twisted the truth becomes. Someone is out to get her. Someone who knows her every move. The question is, who…and why? In a deadly game of mirrors and deception, the answer is more disturbing than anyone could have imagined. © 2026 by Anthony Strong and Sonya Sargent-Strong, all rights reserved.
