Na površini

Na površini

Janelle Brown

Through unexpected twists and shocking deceptions, this suspenseful novel is also a critique of today's society.

The novel On the Surface was declared the best novel of 2020 by Amazon, and the production company Blossom Films, led by Nicole Kidman, is preparing a television series based on this excellent thriller. Nina believed that a degree in art history would ensure her a successful career and an easy life. But that dream did not come true and Nina, with the help of her cunning boyfriend Lachlan, turned to theft and crime. And she learned from the best: her mother was a fraud, who, despite everything, tried to give her daughter a decent childhood. And when her mother falls seriously ill, Nina decides to risk everything to help her, engaging in the most dangerous fraud of her career so far. The privileged young heiress Vanessa also wants to leave her mark on the world, but her dreams of an influential career are reduced to the job of an internet influencer. Behind that flashy exterior, expensive trips, free clothes and posing in exotic locations that he posts on social networks, hides a life marked by tragedy. After a failed engagement, Vanessa retires to the family estate in the mountains, to a villa full of dark secrets from her past, but also from the past of the lost girl Nina. In Stonehaven, on the icy shores of Lake Tahoe, Nina, Vanessa and Lachlan will intertwine their destinies and pave the way for lust, deceit and revenge...
