About the book
Clare Bast's love of art carried her away from a dreary, foreseeable future upstate, and Alexandra Andrews places her in Manhattan's cultured Upper East Side, married to Jed, an affluent and devoted husband. Clare abandoned a PhD halfway when her daughter Sadie was born, and she privately feels like an imposter in Jed's Park Avenue world. His new boss's well-connected wife brings her into a circle of curators and gallerists, and Clare finds a work by the painter of her unfinished thesis hanging in the brownstone of an attractive dealer. Soon she is caught at the site of a brutal killing and an art theft, and the evidence points toward her.
Reese Witherspoon made it her May pick for Reese's Book Club, saying it felt like a secret she was not meant to share and pointing to its lies, money and messy choices in the New York art world.
