The eighth girl : a novel
(Book)

"One woman, multiple personas. But which one is telling the truth? Alexa W nearly has her life together: a new relationship, a job that pays the bills, and a promising interview for a photojournalism position. But, it's complicated. Alexa is manipulated by a series of alternate personas that run her life, and it's a constant struggle to keep her other selves in check, to prevent them from coming out when it's not safe, to make sure no one is aware they exist- except for the three people she trusts: her psychiatrist; her stepmother; and her enigmatic best friend Ella. When Ella gets a job at a high-end gentlemen's club, she catches the attention of its shark-like owner and is gradually drawn into his inner circle. As Alexa's world becomes intimately entangled with Ella's, she soon finds herself the unwitting keeper of a nightmarish secret. With no one to turn to and lives at stake, she follows Ella into London's cruel underbelly on a daring rescue mission. Vulnerable and in danger, Alexa will discover whether her multiple personalities are her greatest asset, or her deadliest obstacle."--Provided by publisher.
