About this book
When the girl of your dreams literally climbs through your window one night and whisks you away on a wild revenge adventure, you'd think that would be the beginning of your love story—but for Q, it's just the start of an obsessive mystery. After an unforgettable night with the enigmatic Margo Roth Spiegelman, she vanishes, leaving behind a trail of cryptic clues that seem meant just for him. As Q follows the breadcrumbs deeper and deeper into the hunt, he begins to realize that the Margo he's loved from afar might be very different from the Margo that actually exists. This is a beautifully layered exploration of obsession, friendship, and what happens when we fall in love with the idea of someone rather than who they really are.
