'Creepy and gripping - I loved it!' JACKIE KABLER

'I've rarely felt as unnerved as I did after reading Mary Dixie Carter's The Photographer, a debut that trains a literary lens on aspiration, envy and obsession ... The depths to which Delta insinuates herself into their lives ...makes the ensuing narrative climax all the more shocking with its unexpected twist' NEW YORK TIMES

They want the perfect family picture.
She wants their perfect life.

As a photographer for Manhattan's elite, Delta Dawn is intimately familiar with the city's most illustrious families - and all their secrets. She may blend into the background, but she sees everything.

When she is booked for a job by the glamorous Amelia Straub, there is a jolt of recognition. This time the family feels special - and wouldn't Delta fit so perfectly here with them, in their gorgeous home, their elegant life? She wants nothing more. And as she steadily befriends them all, she discovers that the one thing Amelia wants most is also the perfect way to ensure Delta will never be asked to leave.

Combining pin-sharp storytelling with a tantalising build of menace, and a dangerously magnetic lead character, The Photographer heralds the arrival of a brilliant new crime writer for fans of Netflix drama You by Caroline Kepnes and Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl.
