Summary
A modern reimagining of Hitchcock's classic Vertigo. How much can you trust what you see?
When Maddy Wight is suddenly tapped to ghostwrite the memoir of the world-renowned cosmetic surgeon Dr. Angela Reynolds, she thinks it might just be the thing to get her career back on track. She travels to Angela's remote estate in the Scottish highlands to hunker down and learn everything she can about her incredibly enigmatic new boss, and the kaleidoscopic beauty industry she leads. As Maddy learns more about her subject, she begins to notice strange gaps in the details of Angela's life. As the threads prove more difficult to pull, she begins to wonder if there just might be a bit more beneath the surface of the doctor and her business than she'd care to let on.
Sharing the glass-walled house is Angela's business partner, Scott, whose mercurial moods change as quickly as the weather on the harsh landscape outside. When a series of strange occurances--from strange prints on the windows and moving statues, to a mysterious hiker that keeps sniffing around around--force them closer together, she finds herself drawn to Scott despite his Jekyll and Hyde persona. As Maddy completes her project and returns to London, she's thrilled when Angela invites her to attend the book launch. The elegant evening is suddenly shattered, however, when Angela receives the devestating news that Scott has leapt to his death from the cliffs just beyond the house.
Which is why, months later and lost in a fog of grief, Maddy is completely blindsided when she looks up and sees him entering the tube station just in front of her. It can't be him, can it? After all, Scott is dead...or is he?
