That is, I never wanted to.</em><br/><br/>They are Phoenix's First Family: handsome Philip Martin, son of the sitting Senator, an ex-football player who carries himself with an easy grace and appears destined to step into his father's seat when the time is right; his wife Marina, the stylish and elegant director of Phoenix's fine arts museum; and their four-year-old daughter Amabel, beautiful and precocious and beloved. </p><p>Finn Hunt is working a dull office job to pay off her college debt when she meets Philip and charms Amabel. She eagerly agrees to nanny, thinking she's lucked into the job of a lifetime. Though the glamour of the Martins' lifestyle undeniably dazzles Finn, her real pleasure comes from being part of the family: sharing quick jokes with Philip in the kitchen before he leaves for work; staying late when Marina needs a last-minute sitter; and spending long days with Amabel, who is often treated more like a photo op than a child.</p><p>But behind every façade lurks a less attractive truth. When a young woman approaches Finn, claiming a connection with Philip and asking Finn to pass on a message, Finn becomes caught up in a web of deceit with the senate seat at its center. And Finn isn't exactly innocent herself: she too has a background she has kept hidden, and under the hot Phoenix sun, everything is about to be laid bare. . . . </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><strong>I never meant to lie.

Told from her perspective, the story takes on a mirage-like quality. Dimberg's prose, meanwhile, zips along like a sand-kicking roadrunner, and the overall pace of the novel is adeptly timed. Gripping and glamorous, <em>Girl in the Rearview Mirror</em> is part political thriller, part domestic noir and 100% entertaining.” --Shelf Awareness<br><br>"A thrilling, thoughtful, and suspenseful debut that shines a light into how power changes everyone who has it, or is in close enough proximity to be consumed by it." --Sarah Weinman, author of <em>The Real Lolita: The Kidnapping of Sally Horner and the Novel That Scandalized the World</em><br><br>Gripping and cinematic, this debut is pure modern noir. A timely story of secrets and power that tips the conventions of the genre on their head. --Flynn Berry, Edgar-Award winning author of <em>Under the Harrow</em><br><br>“I felt the ghost of Mary Jo Kopechne hovering among the pages of <em>Girl in the Rearview Mirror</em>, a riveting tale of an appealing young woman caught in the thrall of a powerful political family's prestige and privilege.”--Hallie Ephron, <em>New York Times </em>bestselling author of <em>Careful What You Wish For</em><br><br>“Laden with intelligence, shocks and arresting prose...Even the most astute readers of suspense fiction will find themselves engulfed by multiple stunners, including an explosive and unforeseen conclusion.”--Free-Lance Star (Fredericksburg, VA)<br><br>“Utterly compelling, this story reveals its secrets slowly and mysteriously under the sweltering sun of Arizona. A gripping story that expertly weaves domestic and political intrigue.”--Rosamund Lupton, bestselling author of <em>Sister</em><br><br>"I tore through <em>Girl in the Rearview Mirror</em>; it really is a truly accomplished debut. Kelsey Rae Dimberg has that rare ability to blend breakneck pace with razor-sharp characterisation and shimmering, immersive prose. A charged, tense, highly emotional story that will stay with you."--Caz Frear, author of <em>Sweet Little Lies</em> and <em>Stone Cold Heart</em><br><br>"As beguiling a tale as the famous family at its center...Both a mystery and a pointed portrait of wealth and privilege. It is a story of the thrill of stepping beneath the spotlight and the stark reckoning that awaits those who are cast out from beneath its glow."--Meghan MacLean Weir, author of <em>The Book of Essie</em><br><br>"With hairpin twists and immense psychological acuity, Kelsey Rae Dimberg's <em>Girl in the Rearview Mirror </em>is as seductive as the glamorous, privileged family at its center--and as cunning.
