When waking up on her living room floor with a shadowy figure looming over her, Diana realises she can’t trust anyone but herself if she wants to survive.
It’s not paranoia if it’s really happening, right? Diana’s friends don’t believe the shadowy figures she’s been seeing are real––until her boyfriend disappears, her best friend shows up covered in blood, and when she can no longer tell what’s real and what is her imagination, Diana becomes an unreliable narrator in her own story.
Contemporary domestic psychological thriller. Multiple POV. Female protagonist. The Faces She Sees will have you questioning if you can’t trust yourself, how can you trust anyone else? Things haven’t been the same for Diana since she woke up in the middle of the night convinced there was someone in her townhouse. Her cheating boyfriend doesn’t believe her and her best friends are too focused on her fainting spells and “senior moments” to see that there might be something real lurking in the shadows.
Diana finally relaxes at her bestie’s party, but it’s not just Fourth of July fireworks over the Long Island Sound that she’s seeing.
Instead, she wakes up to a lifetime of betrayals crammed into one a missing boyfriend, a bleeding best friend, and the worst hangover of her life. The night is a blur, but her sense of reality only gets worse as the weekend unfolds.
