A thrilling and unputdownable high-concept novel about two out-of-work actors who set up an impersonator's agency - but then things go horribly wrong.

IMPERSONATION SERVICES AVAILABLE NEAR YOU. Need someone to stand in as a partner, colleague or relative? Make the right impression by hiring a professional actor today. Complete discretion assured.

After a decade of waiting for the call that would change everything, Lucy's dreams are shattered when her agent drops her. But returning to the life she's spent ten years running from isn't an option.

Determined to keep her acting career alive, Lucy and her best friend Jack launch an Impersonation Agency, stepping into the lives of strangers and playing everything from supportive partners at family gatherings to charming plus-ones at corporate events.

It all seems harmless enough, despite the lies they're paid to spin - until they meet Zelda. A wealthy woman who was abandoned by her ex-boyfriend, Zelda's not just seeking a performance; she's out for revenge. 'I want to destroy him.'

Before they know it, Lucy and Jack are forced to question how far they're willing to go, and just what they've let themselves in for. Because when you're selling lies for a living, can you ever be sure who's really in control?

A totally unputdownable and twist-packed page-turner, perfect for fans of Bella Mackie and Katy Brent.
