New York Times bestselling thriller writer
Lisa Unger (Black Out, Sliver of Truth, and Beautiful
Lies) believes that there is little to fear from strangers
and national trends bear this out, revealing that “stranger
crimes” are at an all time low across the nation. “Interestingly
enough,” she says, “the greatest threat, particularly
to women and children, is generally from someone dwelling under
the same roof – someone they love and trust. Someone who is
sleeping beside them.” This has never been more true than
in her riveting and accomplished fourth novel, DIE FOR YOU.
Set on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, the novel centers around
Isabel Raines, who is happily married to Marcus Raines – at
least that is who she thinks he is until he leaves for work one
morning and never returns.
How do we ever really know someone? How can we be
so easily deceived by the person we see every day – and trust
the most completely? How can a marriage you believe in be a sham?
The story of Isabel’s relentless search for the truth about
her husband is filled with psychological insight into the motives
behind deceit and greed and how families deceive themselves. With
DIE FOR YOU, Unger is hitting her stride and readers
will know they are in the hands of a master storyteller. |
