The instant New York Times bestseller, for the first time in mass market: Worlds collide when an FBI agent investigates a string of grisly murders on Long Island and faces the impossible question: What happens when the primary suspect is your father?

FBI agent Nell Flynn hasn't been home in ten years. Nell and her father, Homicide Detective Martin Flynn, have never had much of a relationship. And Suffolk County will always be awash in memories of her mother, Marisol, who was murdered when Nell was just seven.

When Martin dies in a motorcycle accident, Nell returns to the house where she grew up so that she can spread her father's ashes and close his estate. At the behest of her father's partner, Detective Lee Davis, Nell becomes involved in an investigation into the murders of two young women in Suffolk County. The further Nell digs, the more likely it seems to her that her father should be the primse suspect-and that his friends on the police force are covering his tracks.

Plagued by doubts about her mother's murder, and her own role in exonerating her father in that case, Nell can't help but ask questions about who killed the two women and why. But she may not like the answers she finds-not just about those she loves, but about herself.

Zusammenfassung
MAJOR HARDCOVER AND TRADE PB BUZZ: Girls Like Us was an instant New York Times bestseller and an acclaimed summer read in hardcover. The trade paperback enjoyed great success, and was a Target Book Club pick.

GROWING REPUTATION AS A FRESH, NEW THRILLER WRITER: Alger had a phenomenal start with The Banker's Wife, which repositioned her as a thriller writer to watch, and the publication of Girls Like Us has cemented her as a strong presence in the genre.

PAST PAPERBACK SUCCESSES AND EXCITING NEW FORMAT: The Banker's Wife and Girls Like Us have both been performing very strongly in the trade paperback format. Girls Like Us lends itself perfectly to mass market given the genre's strong comps such as Final Girls and The Flight Attendant.

UNIQUE INSIGHT INTO SETTING: Alger knows this setting and this world particularly well, spending significant time in her house in Quogue and sharing the experiences of both summer visitors and locals.

EXCITING TV ADAPTATION OF THE BANKER'S WIFE IN THE WORKS, which has been picked up by Amazon Studios in an eight-episode straight-to-series order. It is being produced by the team behind Homeland with an all-female creative team.
