Publisher's summary

How much can you trust your closest friend?

Beth Montgomery seems to have the perfect life: a beautiful house in the hills above Los Angeles, a handsome, ambitious husband, and plans of starting a family. So it doesn't occur to her to worry when the news breaks of a quadruple homicide across town, a botched drug deal that leaves an undercover officer among the dead. Beth certainly would never think to tie the murders to the sudden reappearance in her life of wild, sexy Cassie Ogilvy, the estranged best friend she hasn't seen since they were college roommates.

As Cassie confidently settles into Beth's new life, making herself comfortable not only in Beth's guestroom but with her husband as well, it becomes increasingly clear that her old friend has a lot to hide. But it isn't until a shocking late-night phone call, and Cassie's even more startling disappearance, that Beth begins to understand that her world, as she knew it, is gone forever.

Unfurling over the span of three fraught, heart-pounding days, McInnis's masterful suspense debut is fast-paced and diabolically unpredictable - a fresh, surprising, and powerfully smart twist on the traditional thriller.

Critic reviews

"Fast, twisty and totally unexpected. A riveting read!" (Shari Lapena, number one New York Times best-selling author of The Couple Next Door)

"Framed by S.L. McInnis is absolutely sensational! With a stunning blend of brilliant psychological suspense and hard-hitting police procedural, this explosive thriller has a cast of vivid, well-developed characters, a gripping, taut plot with twists in every chapter, perfectly placed clues, and a shocking, fully satisfying ending. It's one of the best thrillers I've read this year!" (Samantha M. Bailey, author of Woman on the Edge)

"Exceptional...A fresh riff on the Gone Girl motif." (Publishers Weekly)

Expected More

I enjoyed the book and it keep me entertained, but I expected more, especially at the end. As a piano teacher I was a bit irritated at the inferences of scales and metronomes continuously. Never has that been my experience.

BRAVO!

This is probably my most favorite book of the year - fantastic narration, great twists, enjoyable characters, described perfectly. It's not unusual for me to figure out the ending, but not this time. It may seem a bit slow in the beginning, but it felt as though this was on purpose to get to know the cast well. Can't wait until your next book. Great job!

Very engaging after a slow start

Laying the groundwork of the situation and true characters causes this book to have a slow start but just hang on! In no time you will have trouble putting it down. Lots of twists and turns with a great ending.

Great story with twists

This was a very engaging story!

While the narration was great, the audio quality needed help. There was a lot of really shrill 's'/sibilance. After adjusting the mid-high and high eq, it was fine.

Good storyline. Thought I had it figured out but it took a twist. Narration was also good -it’s worth the listen.
