About the book

From the publisher

THE PAST GLITTERS. THE TRUTH KILLS.

Whatever happened to Daisy Buchanan? The psychological suspense debut from a New York Times bestselling author that reimagines Fitzgerald’s iconic heroine as a contemporary Long Island socialite in the aftermath of Gatsby’s death.

Daisy Buchanan is the top society hostess on East Egg, Long Island, with a successful husband, two beautiful children, and a jaw-dropping house. No one knows that she needs a few Klonopin to get through the day, to forget the unforgettable―that the love of her life, Jay Gatsby, was killed two summers ago. But when Daisy’s best friend, Jordan Baker, is found dead in her pool the morning after her husband Tom's opulent 40th birthday party, Daisy’s fragile peace is shattered. When people get close to her, they have the awful habit of dying, and she needs to find out why.

As the police investigate Jordan’s murder, Daisy spirals into her own toxic cocktail of revelations and confusion. Is someone watching her, or is that the gin talking? What was it that Jordan wanted to tell her right before she died, and did that secret lead to her demise? Is whoever killed Jordan coming for Daisy next…and has that person been here all along?

With razor-sharp social commentary, lethal secrets, and unforgettable twists, Daisy is an electrifying read that shines a (bright green) light on one of American literature’s most iconic romantic heroines.
