Publisher's Summary

The pieces of a troubled actress’s mysterious life come together in a riveting novel about family secrets and unspeakable lies by the bestselling author of Fortune.

Marlow Fin is as famous for her beauty and success as she is infamous for her past, some of which is a mystery even to her. Is the public ready for the truth? Is she?

In 1995, young Isla Baek finds an abandoned six-year-old Marlow in the woods near the Baek family’s lakeside cabin. With little memory of where she came from or how she got there, Marlow is soon adopted by the Baeks into a seemingly idyllic Midwest life as Isla’s enigmatic new sister. But no one is prepared for how unnerving and disruptive Marlow’s presence will be over the years. Nor could any of them have foreseen the shocking tragedy that upended all their lives forever.

Now the whole world is watching as Marlow reveals everything in a hotly anticipated prime-time interview. In her harrowing story, spanning decades, the truth finally emerges—about Marlow herself, the damages of family secrets, and the unthinkable things people do in the name of love.

The twists and turns will shock you, and the emotional impact will wrench your heart out.”—Samantha M. Bailey, USA Today and #1 internationally bestselling author of A Friend in the Dark

Becoming Marlow Fin is my favorite kind of suspense to relish on a rainy night: tense, twisty, and piled with layer upon layer of family secrets.”—Victoria Helen Stone, bestselling author of Jane Doe

“The twists and turns never let up in this gripping tale of passion, lies, and betrayal. Becoming Marlow Fin is a page-turning riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. I couldn’t put it down!”—Liv Constantine, internationally bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish
