The cover is beautiful,
with ornate gold flowers & leafs over a female character.
Eve has gone from foster
home to foster home and works at a café.
When things go wrong she accepts an offer from Baine and Bridgette, who
offer her an insane amount of money to return with them as their long lost
cousin who disappeared after he best friend committed suicide; all this so they
can claim their fortune four years early.
What enfolds is a
multitude of deceit, lies and mystery as Eve assumes the identity of Aurora
A well crafted
thriller! The perpetrator remained a
surprise until the last.
Book synopsis:
'I am an imposter. A fake. A
fraud. But everything that follows is the truth and nothing but the truth. I
have no reason to lie anymore.' Eve has been living hand-to-mouth, trying to
forget old scars from her foster homes and to avoid getting any new ones from
her sleazy boss. So when she's offered a way out - $100,000 to pretend to be
somebody she's not - she knows she'd be a fool not to take it. But it soon
becomes clear that her life will be at risk unless she can work out exactly
what happened to the girl she's been asked to impersonate. Trapped in a web of
lies and deceit, Eve is desperate to learn the truth, even if it means facing
up to a past filled with murderous secrets.
