About this listen
“Wildly entertaining.”—New York Times Book Review
From the bestselling and award-winning author comes a wickedly clever and fast-paced novel of greed, revenge, obsession—and quite possibly the perfect murder.
Simon and Vicky couldn’t seem more normal: a wealthy Chicago couple, he a respected law professor, she an advocate for domestic violence victims. A stable, if unexciting marriage. But one thing’s for sure: absolutely nothing is what it seems. The pair are far from normal, and one of them just may be a killer.
When the body of a beautiful socialite is found hanging in a mansion in a nearby suburb, Simon and Vicky’s secrets begin to unravel. A secret whirlwind affair. A twenty-million-dollar trust fund about to come due. A decades-long grudge and obsession with revenge. These are just a few of the lies that make up the complex web... and they will have devastating consequences. And while both Vicky and Simon are liars, just who exactly is conning who? Part Gone Girl and part Strangers on a Train, Look Closer is a wild rollercoaster of a read that will have you questioning everything you think you know.
Critic Reviews
"I’ll tell you what—Look Closer is James Patterson’s Book Club selection. You won’t forget this novel, and these characters—good and bad—for a long time."—James Patterson
“Serpentine revelations will surprise even the cleverest mystery readers. This complex tale of triple-crossings and devious revenge should win Ellis new fans.”—Publishers Weekly
“Twisty, intricately plotted…. Even seasoned mystery readers won’t be able to predict all the knots in Simon and Vicky’s tangled web of deception. A roller-coaster ride full of unexpected twists and turns.”—Kirkus Reviews

So many twists & turns
Very well thought out plot. I thought I knew the ending half way thru, but oh how wrong I was.

Wow, what a great book !
David Ellis is my new favourite author - he writes a mean absorbing story; no padding, not one wasted word; beautifully sewn together with love and quality threads. Probably the best book I've listened to all year (about 2 per week). The protagonists were not good people, or were they? It doesn't matter, there were worse than them. The characters were drawn near perfectly and the twists and turns were fantastic. A complex however easily understood plot. Performances, especially Simon, were simply great. I cannot rate this book highly enough.

Great twisty thriller.
One of the few thrillers I couldn’t predict the ending - although I constantly thought I had it!

Twists and turns
More twist and turns then a game of chutes and ladders. Every time I thought I had this book worked out there was another twist. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Captivating!
This story had me hooked straight away. So many twists and turns - I didn’t pick the ending. It was complex with all the different characters but so well written. I highly recommend this book.
