'I devoured this Londoner in LA story in a day' CAROLINE KEPNES
'Stylish, riveting, hugely atmospheric - I couldn't put it down' LUCY FOLEY
SHE IS MISSING.
BUT DID SHE EVER REALLY EXIST?
Mia Eliot has travelled from London to LA for pilot season. This is her big chance to make it as an actor in Hollywood, and she is ready to do whatever it takes. At an audition she meets Emily, and what starts as a simple favour takes a dark turn when Emily goes missing and Mia is the last person to see her.
Then a woman turns up, claiming to be Emily, but she is nothing like Mia remembers. Why would someone pretend to be Emily? Starting to question her own sanity, she goes on a desperate and dangerous search for answers, knowing something is very, very wrong.
In an industry where everything is about creating illusions, how do you know what is real? And how much would you risk to find out?
