Double Take

"One of the best suspense novels of the year," raved the Cleveland Plain Dealer of Judy Mercer's Fast Forward, which "makes John Grisham's thrillers seem like the work of a rank amateur." Now, she brings back her first-class heroine, TV producer Ariel Gold, in a crackerjack story where nothing is as it seems.

DOUBLE TAKE

Ariel Gold has come to South Carolina for a much-needed break from L.A. -- and to continue to piece together her life after a devastating memory loss. But her wish for a little downtime is shattered when she arrives at her grandfather's home on Kiawah Island. A chance encounter with her past on a deserted beach is about to pull her into a spiral of Southern family scandal with all the force of a coastal hurricane. The deeper she delves into a chilling legacy of jealousy and bad blood, Ariel finds the truth can be twisted -- and memories can be murder...

With the electrifying thrills that made Fast Forward a coast-to-coast hit, Judy Mercer brings her "irresistible first-person voice -- clever, caustic, and brash" (Minneapolis Star Tribune) to a dazzling suspense winner.
