'Clever, cunning and diabolical in the best possible way' Ann Patchett


How do you become a celebrated writer without revealing your true identity? Florence Darrow has no idea, but when she's offered the chance to work with the notoriously enigmatic 'Maud Dixon', a writer about whom almost nothing is known, she jumps at the chance.


Soon, she's on a research trip to Morocco, complete with coastal setting and hours of detailed plot discussion. Almost too good to be true. But then Florence wakes up in hospital, miraculously unscathed following a car crash. Florence knows that Maud was there too, but no-one believes her. Moreover, if Maud has vanished, there are writerly shoes to fill, and maybe Florence can make her mark after all...
