When four influential members of London's most exclusive private club are poisoned, a young waitress is charged with their murder after being caught fleeing the scene of the crime. As the trial grips the nation, five men begin to question how well they really knew her.
There's her father, who remembers the sweet girl growing up in Devon; her childhood friend, who is swept up in her fascination with conspiracy theories; her lover, who wants to distance himself from a young woman with an obsession; her barrister, who knows she's hiding something; and the journalist investigating the case, who is convinced he knows exactly who she is: a cold-blooded killer.
Five men. Five stories. But are you ready to hear hers?

Reviews / Votes
A highly original and assured psychological thriller, it keeps readers guessing until delivering a satisfying punch. Simply stunning. * Daily Express * Stunning: so clever, so gripping, so timely. This deserves to be huge -- LUCY FOLEY From the very first page, this thriller is unique, punchy and super-smart. Her Many Faces is itself so multifaceted, so rich - a courtroom drama, a character study, a social commentary - but it wears each guise with real heart and style. -- ABIGAIL DEAN Beautifully written, experimental, and fast-paced. I'm addicted. -- GIlLIAN McALLISTER A brilliantly structured and beautifully written story about a troubled young woman who may or may not have murdered a room full of some of the most powerful men in the country at an infamous London members' club * Lisa Jewell * Clever, compulsive and razor-sharp ... An unusual genre redefining thriller that dissects identity, bias and media obsession in a gripping, multi-voiced mystery * Yours Magazine * 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 This page-turning, multiple viewpoint thriller is a densely plotted novel full of amazing twists -- Irvine Welsh * Guardian * An ingenious, indignant, beautifully wrought psychological thriller. Nicci Cloke had me fooled repeatedly and I absolutely loved it. -- ERIN KELLY A smart thriller with slick, snappy chapters that had me reading 'just one more' until the early hours... A must-read * Prima *More details
