Thank you to Net Galley and Sourcebooks Landmark for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Meg Williams. Maggie Littleton. Melody Wilde. Different names for the same person, depending on the town, depending on the job. She’s a con artist who erases herself to become whoever you need her to be―a college student. A life coach. A real estate agent. Nothing about her is real. She slides alongside you and tells you exactly what you need to hear, and by the time she’s done, you’ve likely lost everything.

When Kat expresses doubts about whether Scott will be investigated by his colleagues, it raises questions about the motivations of police departments. Is there an incentive for police departments to investigate their own officers and detectives, or are there reasons why they might want to sweep corruption and violence under the rug? What kind of impact does this have on the community and on the trust between police and civilians? How Meg conned her targets. There was more business jargon in there than I thought but I liked learning how she worked and her motives. This thriller is unputdownable. The characters are complex, and everything about the plot is intriguing…and continued to intrigue me the further I got.
