Look Closer

Look Closer by David Ellis is a fast-paced psychological thriller filled with deception, obsession, revenge, and murder. Simon and Vicky appear to be an ordinary wealthy Chicago couple—he a respected law professor, she an advocate for domestic violence victims—but beneath the surface, both are hiding dangerous secrets.

When a glamorous socialite is found dead in a nearby mansion, the carefully constructed lies surrounding Simon and Vicky begin to unravel. A secret affair, a twenty-million-dollar trust fund, an old grudge, and a long-planned desire for revenge all become part of an increasingly complicated web. The deeper the story goes, the harder it becomes to tell who is manipulating whom.

Twisty, clever, and full of surprises, Look Closer is a great choice for readers who enjoy domestic suspense, psychological thrillers, unreliable characters, and stories where nothing is quite what it seems.
