More about the book

In this shocking new psychological thriller, an unraveling woman becomes increasingly fixated on her neighbor -- the beautiful, successful actress. The unnamed narrator is childless, recently separated from her husband, and frustrated with her ramshackle apartment and boring teaching job, while the actress has her face on the side of every bus, a gleaming brownstone, and an enviable home life with a handsome husband, two older children, and a baby. Though they live just a block apart, the narrator and the actress are separated by a chasm of personal success and professional fulfillment.
