Her Many Faces

Beschreibung

“Stunning: so clever, so gripping, so timely.” — Lucy Foley Five men, five stories: unravel the mystery behind Katherine Cole, a woman on trial for murder, in this whip-smart and suspenseful thriller told through shifting perspectives.  When four wealthy and influential members are poisoned at London’s most exclusive private club, a young waitress is arrested, and her personal life is picked apart. After the murder accusation, five men begin to question how well they really knew her. To each of them—her father, a reporter, her former lover, her friend, and her lawyer—she is something entirely different. But which is the true face of Katherine Cole? And is she a killer? The truth lies somewhere between these five male perspectives. What follows is a chilling kaleidoscope of a thriller, both a smart courtroom drama and a frightening examination of how one woman can be so ruthlessly deconstructed by the men who know her best—and just what happens when she decides to speak out at last? UNRAVEL THE MYSTERY THAT’S GOT TOP AUTHORS TALKING “So original, thrilling and utterly addictive." — Alice Feeney “Unique, punchy and super-smart.” — Abigail Dean “Beautifully written, experimental, and fast-paced.” — Gillian McAllister

"Beautifully written, experimental, and fast-paced. I'm addicted." - Gillian McAllister, New York Times bestselling author of Wrong Place Wrong Time and Famous Last Words

"Her Many Faces had me gripped from the start and I raced through it in two sittings. Clever, twisty and with such a unique narrative method that I was second guessing Katie Cole's guilt or innocence throughout, this novel firmly stakes Nicci Cloke's claim as the breakout suspense writer of the year, and she can count me as her number one fan!" - Sarah Pinborough, New York Times bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes and We Live Here Now
