The author has passed away. A perfect crime. Three women, each with a different story.Celebrated but fading novelist Julian Vane is dead. But his death was no simple tragedy-it was his final, manipulative masterpiece, a stage designed to trap the women in his life and immortalise his own legend.In the 48 hours surrounding Julian Vane’s death, three women each construct their own version of truth. One believes she witnessed natural causes. One pushes suicide. One is convinced she caused an accident. All three are wrong-and that’s exactly what Julian intended.As his story unfolds, three competing narratives emerge, each driven by a woman with everything to lose.THE WIFE: Mary West. A polished cardiologist, she is desperate to maintain her pristine reputation and frames death as a natural cause. But her calm exterior hides a deep shame and a secret that makes her look guilty of premeditation.THE AGENT: Sloane Porter. Facing financial ruin, Julian’s calculating agent sees his death as a final opportunity. She pushes a narrative of a noble suicide to secure a lucrative posthumous book deal, all while hiding her own desperate acts.THE LOVER: Mila Novak. Talented and ambitious, she believes she is responsible for an accident after a physical altercation. In a panic, she steals his dark, final manuscript-a confession that could launch her career or expose her as a killer.As sharp-witted Detective Byrne investigates, she is drawn into a web of unreliable memories and deliberate lies, convinced she is hunting for a murderer. But the most shocking revelation is not who killed Julian, but why he engineered his own end.Sara Yousef’s psychological thriller dissects the anatomy of deception through four conflicting perspectives, each with hidden motives that drive them to reshape reality itself.The Alabaster Gaze is a gripping psychological thriller about the battle between truth and narrative.
