Publisher Description
Two women. An office filled with secrets. One terrible crime that can't be taken back.
Dawn Schiff is strange.
At least, everyone thinks so at Vixed, the nutritional supplement company where Dawn works as an accountant. She never says the right thing. She has no friends. And she is always at her desk at precisely 8:45 a.m.
So when Dawn doesn't show up to the office one morning, her coworker Natalie Farrell―beautiful, popular, top sales rep five years running―is surprised. Then she receives an unsettling, anonymous phone call that changes everything…
It turns out Dawn wasn't just an awkward outsider―she was being targeted by someone close. And now Natalie is irrevocably tied to Dawn as she finds herself caught in a twisted game of cat and mouse that leaves her wondering: who's the real victim?
But one thing is incredibly clear: somebody hated Dawn Schiff.
Enough to kill.
The Coworker is a tense, unputdownable thriller from New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden that explores the dark ways the past can echo through the present―with deadly consequences.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In this twisty mystery, Freida McFadden shows us no crime ever really goes unpunished. Nerdy loner Dawn and cool, charismatic Natalie are more officemates than friends. But when Dawn goes missing, Natalie decides to do some digging—and winds up becoming the police’s number one suspect. The further things go in this high-tension thrill ride, the more suspicious we felt about everyone in the story. We were listening with white knuckles as we tried to predict the next surprise turn—and we were always wrong. But McFadden is so great at orchestrating an expert game of cat and mouse, we were glad just to be along for the ride. Alyson Krawchuk puts so much colour and personality into the narration that we expected to turn around and see Natalie sitting right next to us. The Coworker will have you totally rapt—when it isn’t giving you the shivers.
