Synopsis

Lucy has folded her ambitions into her marriage, her house, and her two young sons — until a stranger's phone call shatters everything: his wife has been sleeping with Lucy's husband, Jake.

Rather than leave, Lucy and Jake strike a bargain to even the score and save the marriage — she will hurt him three times, and he will never know when or how.

But with each act, the harpy that has fascinated Lucy since childhood stirs inside her, and the woman she used to be begins to give way to something wilder. A taut, mythic novel of betrayal, power, and transformation.
