Her Many Faces
Description
“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?
