- In the adrenaline-laced new novel of suspense from Tom Savageâ€"hailed by Michael Connelly as “a master of the high-speed thriller"â€"an American actress in Europe races to find the truth behind her husband’s mysterious accident. What she uncovers makes her the target of a shocking conspiracy. Nora Baron’s life is perfect. She lives on Long Island Sound, teaches acting at a local university, and has a loving family. Then one phone call changes everything. She’s informed that her husband, Jeff, has died in a car crash while on a business trip in England. Nora flies to London to identify the body, which the police have listed as a “John Doe." When she leaves the morgue, a man tries to steal her purse containing Jeff’s personal effects. Clearly, all is not as it seems. At her hotel, Nora receives a cryptic message that leaves her with more questions than answers. She follows the message’s instructions to France, where a fatal encounter transforms her into a fugitive. Wanted for murder, on the run in a shadowy landscape of lies, secrets, and sudden violence, Mrs. “John Doe" must play the role of a lifetime to stay one step ahead of a ruthless enemy with deadly plans for herâ€"and for the world.

A clever, compelling, and cinematic page-turner in which nothing is as it seems,Mrs. John Doe opens with a twist I didn’t see coming and closes with a satisfying bang. This longtime Savage fan ranksMrs. John Doe right up there with Precipice."â€"Wendy Corsi Staub,New York Times bestselling author of The Black Widow “Tom Savage’s Mrs. John Doe races a fictional path somewhere between Alfred Hitchcock and Agatha Christie, a modern heroine-on-the-run spy thriller dealing with some of our time’s deadliest challenges."â€"James Grady,New York Times bestselling author of Last Days of the Condor Praise for Tom Savage “Savage knows the mystery novel inside and out, and it shows on every page."â€"James Patterson “A master of the high-speed thriller."â€"Michael Connelly “A very gifted writer who creates living, breathing characters, wonderful dialogue, and mesmerizing tension."â€"Nelson DeMille “Savage writes with fierce energy, piercing holes in the shredding fabric of our society, where no one is safe, no one is free from harm."â€"Lorenzo Carcaterra
