Celebrating her 45th birthday at her local pub, podcaster Alix Summer crosses paths with an unassuming woman called Josie Fair. Josie is also celebrating her 45th.

A few days later, they bump into each other again, this time outside Alix's children's school. Josie says she thinks she would be an interesting subject for Alix's podcast. She is, she tells Alix, on the cusp of great changes in her life.

Alix agrees to a trial interview and indeed, Josie's life appears to be strange and complicated. Alix finds her unsettling but can't quite resist the temptation to keep digging.

Slowly Alix starts to realise that Josie has been hiding some very dark secrets, and before she knows it Josie has cajoled her way into Alix's life - and into her home.

Soon Alix begins to wonder who is Josie Fair really? And what has she done?

Jamie’s review

I threw this suspenseful, psychological thriller into my reading lineup to mix things up a bit! Just when you think you know where the plot is going, surprise! You don't!

Josie and Alix cross paths and discover they are "birthday twins" - born on the same day at the same hospital 45 years earlier. What Alix considers to be a coincidence, Josie considers to be divine intervention.

This is why your parents warned you about stranger danger!

I enjoyed the podcast/documentary style of interviews mixed in with Alix and Josie's POV's. The big reveal felt a little cheap to me but it was still very entertaining.

Erica’s review

Sucked in immediately and LOVED this mystery/thriller Dateline episode-in-a-book! I was obsessed with trying to figure out what the hell was happening and who was really the reliable narrator in this one! There is a LOT packed into this book and is a wild ride so hold on. If you like action packed suspense - this one is for you. I actually loved the twisty ending and the messy ending.
