      "When an anonymous neighborhood forum gets hacked, the darkest secrets of New York's wealthiest residents come to light-including some worth killing for-in this gripping suspense novel from the author of Just One Look. It was all confidential. Right up to the moment when it wasn't. UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms-an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan's exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of heinous gossip. These are the same parents who would go to astonishing lengths to ensure their children gain admission to the most prestigious boarding schools and universities. So when a "hacktivist" group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity behind each poster, the repercussions resound down Park Avenue with a force none could have anticipated. And someone will end up dead. Will it be Heather, the wannabe outsider who would do anything to get her daughter into the elite's good graces and into even better schools? Norah, the high-powered suit failing to balance work and the emotional responsibilities of motherhood? Or Poppy, perfect on the outside but hiding more than her share of secrets? Each of them has something to hide. Each of them will do anything to keep their secrets hidden. And each of them just might kill to protect their own"-- Provided by publisher

      Eyes aren't the windows to the soul; emails are. Cassie Woodson finds herself adrift after a significant fall down the corporate ladder, forced to take a thankless temp job reviewing correspondence for a fraud suit. This monotonous work highlights the voids in her life—love, friends, stability—and leaves her with too much time to dwell on her past mistakes. While sifting through a flood of emails, she stumbles upon the intimate exchanges between Forest Watts, a partner at the firm, and his captivating wife, Annabelle. Despite knowing she shouldn’t, Cassie can’t resist reading them. Each day, from her dingy workstation, she dissects their affectionate messages, finding joy in their seemingly perfect life filled with vintage wines and lavish dinner parties in Westchester. As her admiration turns into obsession, she begins to mimic their lifestyle, hoping that if she plays make-believe long enough, it will become her reality. However, when Cassie engineers a "chance" meeting with Forest and uncovers unsettling truths about his marriage, her fantasy crumbles. Suddenly, her admiration for Annabelle transforms into a desire to take her place, and Cassie feels equipped to pursue that goal.
