Concise Novel Title: First Lie Wins

REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK | #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

"This fast-paced read has everything you could want in a thriller: secret identities, a mysterious boss and a cat & mouse game that kept me guessing the whole way through."—Reese Witherspoon

Evie Porter, a seemingly nice Southern girl, has a doting boyfriend, a house with a white picket fence, and a tight group of friends. However, the catch is that Evie Porter doesn't exist. Her identity is an elaborate creation, orchestrated by her mysterious boss, Mr. Smith.

The process begins with the identity: Evie Porter. Once given a name and location by Mr. Smith, Evie immerses herself in learning every detail about the town and its inhabitants. The next step is the mark: Ryan Sumner. Evie's task is to infiltrate Ryan's life and gather information, but as she gets to know him, she starts to envision a different kind of life for herself.

Evie is not privy to Mr. Smith's true identity, but she knows this job is unlike any other she has undertaken. The stakes are higher, and Evie can't afford to make any mistakes, especially after what happened during her last assignment. She must stay one step ahead of her own past while ensuring a future for herself.

As Evie navigates the intricate web of deception, she finds herself increasingly drawn to Ryan, questioning the morality of her actions. The line between her assigned role and her genuine feelings becomes blurred, and Evie must make a choice: to continue down the path she has been set upon or to forge a new, uncertain future.

The challenge Evie faces is a thrilling one, but she has always relished a challenge. With her sharp wit, adaptability, and determination, she must confront her own doubts and the consequences of her choices, all while staying one step ahead of her mysterious boss and the life she has created for herself.

In this captivating narrative, the reader is taken on a roller-coaster journey of identity, deception, and the pursuit of a different kind of life. Evie's story is a testament to the power of reinvention and the courage it takes to break free from the constraints of the roles we are assigned.
