Summary
REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK | #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“This fast-paced read has everything you could want in a thriller: secret identities, a mysterious boss and a cat & mouse game that kept me guessing the whole way through.” —Reese Witherspoon

Evie Porter has everything a nice Southern girl could want: a doting boyfriend, a house with a white picket fence, a tight group of friends. The only catch: Evie Porter doesn’t exist.

The identity comes first: Evie Porter. Once she’s given a name and location by her mysterious boss, Mr. Smith, she learns everything there is to know about the town and the people in it. Then the mark: Ryan Sumner. The last piece of the puzzle is the job.

Evie isn’t privy to Mr. Smith’s real identity, but she knows this job isn't like the others. Ryan has gotten under her skin, and she’s starting to envision a different sort of life for herself. But Evie can’t make any mistakes—especially after what happened last time.

Evie Porter must stay one step ahead of her past while making sure there's still a future in front of her. The stakes couldn't be higher—but then, Evie has always liked a challenge. . . .

It was a good read, not I would have liked a bigger twist at the end.

Intriguing story, nice twist. Narrator was great.

Very underwhelmed. Finished the book and thought… that was it? What was the hype?

Profile Avatar Andy D. Jan 2024

A great fast paced book. Great read.

Very entertaining

Profile Avatar Anonymous Jan 2025

This story sounds too far fetched to actually believe it.

Profile Avatar Jojo G Jan 2025

it wasn't my favorite book but I didn't hate it either

Profile Avatar Pamela M. Dec 2024

One of the best audiobooks I've purchased this year. I loved the Narrator and the plot. Hoping there are future books with this protagonist as well! Highly enjoyable read.

Story line a little farfetched from the real world, but nice escapism. I don't think it's right to glamorize her choices of a life of deceiving people.

Good story, entertaining

Profile Avatar Dillon S. Oct 2024

fun story good narration

Liked this book and loved the narrator. It kept me interested up until the end and then the end was a little disappointing. Still good, but not that great ending that needed to be an amazing book. Hope they make a movie with this story.

Good story, some twists

Profile Avatar Debbie V. Jul 2024

Great story and narrator.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Jul 2024

I don't understand all the positive revews about this book. The story was underwhelming and the characters were unlikeable. There wasn't much character development to make the plot twist interesting and/or surprising. And, were we supposed to feel sorry for the main character b/c she grew up in a trailer and her "mama" died when she was an adult? Is this supposed to justify her choice in life and make us root for her? I would have preferred if the author didn't try to gain sympathy for her and was more blunt about the terrible person she is (and if the story was more interesting).

Love the plot twists. The author keeps you on edge until the end!

Profile Avatar Aubrey P. May 2024

Great read! I loved the twists and anticipation!

Profile Avatar Ed L. May 2024

I did not like it and bailed before the end. I tried to hang in there but the story was absurd.

Profile Avatar Chris E. Apr 2024

Excellent book

Profile Avatar Deborah D. Feb 2024

I liked the character who was just trying to get ahead in the world but getting caught up on the wrong side of it as well. I really enjoyed it.

Profile Avatar Kathryn D. Feb 2024

Really liked this book. The narrator was excellent.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Feb 2024

this was my first audio book. I enjoyed the story. The "male" voice was annoying as it's a female altering to sound like a male.

Profile Avatar Karri H. Feb 2024

fast paced and would make a great Netflix series

Profile Avatar Anonymous Jan 2024

Underwhelming story. Could barely get through this

Profile Avatar Linda C. Jan 2024

Great read, started a little slow but then the twists came and it was great!
