“A glorious romp through the lives and loves of the scintillating Sutherland sisters!” (Hazel Gaynor, New York Times–bestselling author). One sailed the Titanic and started a fashion empire. The other overtook Hollywood and scandalized the world. Together, they were unstoppable. Elinor and Lucy Sutherland came from nearly nothing—two beautiful sisters who lived by their wits and ambition. They were at once each other’s fiercest supporters and most vicious critics. Together they seduced the world. Lucy transforms herself into Lucile, whose fashions are the talk of London. And when she marries Sir Cosmo Duff-Gordon her life seems like a fairy tale. But success comes at a cost—to her marriage and to her children . . . Then, one fateful night, the Titanic strikes an iceberg . . . and scandal follows. Elinor writes as Elinor Glyn, and her novels are so shocking no one admits to reading them . . . but everybody does. And when she travels to the glittering new world of Hollywood she becomes a worldwide celebrity. But although she writes of passion, the true love she longs for eludes her. Despite quarrels and misunderstandings, distance and destiny, there is no bond stronger than that of the two sisters—confidants, friends, rivals, and the two “It Girls” of their day. “Not only is this a fabulous portrait of the time, but it is also a deftly crafted portrait of the complexity of sisterhood.” —RT Book Reviews (starred) “Fans of Kathleen Tessaro and Penny Vincenzi will enjoy the layers of intrigue and the sweeping plot. Harper’s ability to shift between raw ambition and tender compromise makes this family-focused novel a genuine delight.” —Booklist

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of the “claustrophobic spine-tingler” (People) One by One returns with an unputdownable mystery following a woman on the search for answers a decade after her friend’s murder. April Clarke-Cliveden was the first person Hannah Jones met at Oxford. Vivacious, bright, occasionally vicious, and the ultimate It girl, she quickly pulled Hannah into her dazzling orbit. Together, they developed a group of devoted and inseparable friends—Will, Hugh, Ryan, and Emily—during their first term. By the end of the year, April was dead. Now, a decade later, Hannah and Will are expecting their first child, and the man convicted of killing April, former Oxford porter John Neville, has died in prison. Relieved to have finally put the past behind her, Hannah’s world is rocked when a young journalist comes knocking and presents new evidence that Neville may have been innocent. As Hannah reconnects with old friends and delves deeper into the mystery of April’s death, she realizes that the friends she thought she knew all have something to hide…including a murder. “The Agatha Christie of our generation” (David Baldacci, #1 New York Times bestselling author) proves once again that she is “as ingenious and indefatigable as the Queen of Crime” (The Washington Post) with this propulsive murder mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
