THE LOOKALIKE

A struggling young woman discovers she could be the double of a missing socialite and slips into her life, only to become the target of threats tied to the disappearance she’s hiding behind in this juicy psychological thriller from Julie Balint.

Twenty-five-year-old Nova Kennedy has gone missing from her family’s Cape Cod mansion. Even though theyre not those Kennedys, the disappearance dominates the season’s headlines. Two months later, Nova reappears. Or so everyone believes.

Kristen Wells is a broke, bored nobody in Louisiana when she sees Nova’s face on the news and realizes she’s Nova’s near-perfect double. Drawn by the promise of escape and the chance to live a "big" life, Kristen poses as Nova and inserts herself into the icy dysfunction of the Kennedy family.

Initially planning to solve the mystery and get out, Kristen falls further and further under the Kennedys spell. When she begins to receive threatening anonymous notes, it becomes clear someone knows she isn’t who she claims to be.

Surrounded by suspects, Kristen must decide how far she’s willing to go to protect the lie she’s living. Its a race against time for Kristen to uncover the truth—about her blackmailer, Novas disappearance, and the complicated Kennedy family—before the lies shes told start to unravel.
