Book Description
The next novel of psychological suspense and obsession from the authors of the blockbuster bestseller The Wife Between Us
Seeking women ages 18–32 to participate in a study on ethics and morality. Generous compensation. Anonymity guaranteed.
When Jessica Farris signs up for a psychology study conducted by the mysterious Dr. Shields, she thinks all she’ll have to do is answer a few questions, collect her money, and leave.
Question #1: Could you tell a lie without feeling guilt?
But as the questions grow more and more intense and invasive and the sessions become outings where Jess is told what to wear and how to act, she begins to feel as though Dr. Shields may know what she’s thinking…and what she’s hiding.
Question #2: Have you ever deeply hurt someone you care about?
As Jess’s paranoia grows, it becomes clear that she can no longer trust what in her life is real, and what is one of Dr. Shields’ manipulative experiments. Caught in a web of deceit and jealousy, Jess quickly learns that some obsessions can be deadly.
Question #3: Should a punishment always fit the crime?
From the authors of the blockbuster bestseller The Wife Between Us comes an electrifying new novel about doubt, passion, and just how much you can trust someone.
My Thoughts
The Wife Between Us, Hendricks and Pekkanen previous book was one of my favorite books of 2018. As soon as I saw a new book was being published I knew I had to read it. Even though I absolutely loved The Wife Between Us but in my opinion An Anonymous Girl was even better.
In all honesty, I am still thinking about this book , that is how good it is. Every minute, every word is worth the time you spend on it. The characters, the plot, the setting, all of it makes this book a marvelous read. It kept me intrigued, invested in the characters and what I loved the most was that unexpected ending and all the suspense leading to it. I was fascinated how the authors managed the dual POV, going back and forth between the two main characters, the amount of detail they put into it without being boring or adding unnecessary story lines. I also loved how the subjects of morality and honesty are explored, a very different take from other books which is what makes this book so unique and interesting.
An Anonymous Girl, an addictive, intriguing thriller that I recommend and cannot wait to read more book from these Authors.
Thank you Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for the advanced free copy in exchange for an honest review.
