A brilliantly comic and intelligent literary mystery from Karen Joy Fowler, the bestselling Man Booker shortlisted author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves
Rima Lanisell has a habit of losing things - car keys, sunglasses, lovers, family members. Following the death of Rima''s father, she goes to stay with her godmother Addison, a wildly successful, albeit eccentric, mystery writer. Addison''s beach house seems the place to make sense of Rima''s loss, yet she is soon caught up in a mystery of her own. Who stole a small and highly valuable object from Addison''s kitchen? Why is Rima corresponding with an obsessive fan, using someone else''s family name? Most importantly: what exactly was the relationship between Addison and Rima''s father, and why did Addison name a murderer after him in one of her novels?
