Anatomy of an Alibi

2026Penguin Publishing Group

Synopsis

Camille Bayliss has the life a Louisiana society page would envy: a wealthy family, a powerful lawyer husband, no visible cracks. She is also certain Benjamin Bayliss is hiding something, and she cannot prove it because he tracks everything she does.

Aubrey Price has spent a decade circling the night that ruined her, convinced Ben knows what happened. The two women strike a bargain: for twelve hours Aubrey will be Camille, and Camille will be free to follow her husband and find out what he is protecting. The next morning Ben is found murdered, and both women are standing behind an alibi that is a lie.

Ashley Elston's thriller is a twisty domestic puzzle about identity, complicity, and a decade-old hit-and-run that will not stay buried.
