From the New York Times bestselling author of the Pretty Little Liars series comes a thriller “blending Hitchcock, S.J. Watson, and Ruth Ware” (Entertainment Weekly) filled with half-truths, suppressed memories, and ingenious twists.

When Eliza Fontaine is rescued from the bottom of a hotel pool just a few weeks before her first novel is going to be published, her family assumes that it’s another failed suicide attempt. But Eliza swears she was pushed. The problem is she remembers little of that night, a result of the large quantity of alcohol she consumed and a worsening struggle with memory loss due to a brain tumor. Feeling ignored and vulnerable, she decides she must find the truth of what actually happened.

As she searches for answers, something very peculiar begins to happen: The people closest to her start to confuse the events in her novel with those in her real life. The dividing line between fact and fiction seems to be dissolving, and even Eliza is becoming uncertain about where her protagonist’s story ends and hers begins. She glimpses a shadowy presence hovering nearby, a mirror image of herself…but is it all in her head or is there really someone following her, studying her, wishing to do her harm? Perhaps the answers to all her questions already exist in the pages of her novel, if only she could put the pieces together in the right way.

The Elizas is a heart-pounding, Hitchcockian double narrative composed of secrets, lies, false memories, and an unreliable narrator you’ll never forget.

Great hunting story!

I thought halfway through I had the whole thing figured out. Boy was I wrong and then some. Loved the story! love the way it was written and love the way it was told.

amazing

great nooks keeps you on your toes for sure keeps you guessing even after its over

Pay attention.

I liked this book. Must pay attention with so many twists and turns! Don’t be distracted.

Finally something different

I was expected another twist of PLL. This is Sarah Shephard’s best book. It’s adult and beguiling and different than anything else she’s done. It’s Gillian Flynn-esque... it’s psychological and a little terrifying. But it was good.
The resolution was pretty predictable about halfway through but i hung on til the end... which left me feeling a little let down as the last twist doesn’t quite settle well. But, again. By far her best work.

Amazing!

I love this book! Jayme is a wonderful reader, I've listened to this about 6 times! Wonderful story, if you liked Pretty Little Liars but are wanting something with more of an adult theme this is for you!
