The Three Faces of Mrs. Vance
Reads
She is three women. Two of them are lies. The third one is wanted. Maya Ellison is three women, and none of them can ever meet. By day she is the quiet, indispensable assistant to billionaire Ethan Vance — trusted, invisible, unremarkable. By night she is "V.", the phantom investor buying back, share by share, the empire built on her murdered father's stolen work. And beneath both masks she is a girl who was erased from every public record fifteen years ago, the week her family was destroyed. She has held the three of them apart for three years. She has eleven days left. A new security protocol demands original identity documents from every employee in the building. A detective who never closed her mother's file has just requested a court order. And Ethan's father has asked his son, personally, to unmask the ghost investor circling the company. Ethan doesn't know he is falling for the woman dismantling his family. His father doesn't know the ghost he's hunting is the daughter he ruined. And somewhere in the dark, someone who is not the police and not the Vances has been sending Maya messages signed with a name no living person should know. Three identities. Three clocks. One collision. The only question left is which truth breaks first — and whether anything survives the moment they all come down together.
