What Booksellers Are Saying

The Marriage Pact: An August 2017 Indie Next Pick. A Library Reads and Loan Stars pick, selected by librarians across the United States & Canada as one of the best 10 books of July. One of BBC Culture’s Best Beach Reads of 2017.

“This summer, The Marriage Pact is set to become the book you won’t be able to put down…Set in Silicon Valley, in a world of privilege driven by exclusivity, The Marriage Pact is a break-neck thriller to match Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train. In this insulated and therapy-obsessed community, Richmond pushes her characters, newlyweds at the peak of their careers, to the absolute extreme. You won’t believe the jaw-dropping conclusion.” Kepler’s, Menlo Park
