Puppet Living a no-strings-attached life in glamorous Palm Beach, beautiful, steely-nerved criminal attorney Amanda Travis knows exactly what she likes: spinning classes, the color black, and one-night stands. Here's what she dislikes: the color pink, nicknames . . . and memories. She has shut the door on two ex-husbands, her estranged mother, and her hometown of Toronto. Then comes the news that will shatter Amanda's untouchable world: her mother, who has always held a strange power over everyone she encounters, has shot and killed a complete stranger. Forced to return to Toronto, Amanda must confront her demons and unravel the truth behind her mother's violent act—while the taunting, teasing name from her past dances in her head . . . Puppet . . . telling her that someone else is orchestrating her fate.
Mad River Road After spending a year in prison, Ralph Fisher has explicit plans for his first night of freedom: tonight, someone will be held accountable. He goes to murderous lengths to obtain the address of his former wife—the woman he blames for his fate and against whom he has sworn vengeance. Determined to bring her to his idea of justice, Ralph's next step is to travel from Florida's sandy beaches to Dayton, Ohio, where his ex-wife is struggling to make ends meet on Mad River Road.
As riveting and beguiling as Joy Fielding's previous bestselling novels, Mad River Road is a novel about courage, truth, and the strength that comes only when you believe in yourself.
“If you’re in the mood to bury yourself in a book . . . pick up Joy Fielding’s latest. . . . It’s guaranteed to reduce you to tears, and once they’ve dried, will leave you feeling a little readier to tackle life’s challenges.” The Gazette (Montreal)
“Joy Fielding’s writing . . . is a cross between Margaret Atwood and Patricia Highsmith.” The Globe and Mail
Praise for Mad River Road
“The intricate, twisty plot builds to an explosive climax.” Publishers Weekly
“Thrills and chills—with substance. . . . As much a smart domestic drama as it is a taut thriller.” People
“It’s hard to sit down and read a few pages of one of [Joy Fielding’s] novels and not want to read the rest. Right now.” The Knoxville News-Sentinel
“Fielding understands what many female readers want. She gives us an independent, assertive heroine who gets to do the things most us would tsk about.” The Gazette (Montreal)
“Fielding is as artful as Margaret Atwood when it comes to exploring female anger and the relationships between victim and victimizer. . . . It is Fielding’s talent for entwining the banal with the inconceivably evil that makes her stories so real.” The Globe and Mail
“Fielding masterfully manipulates our expectations.” The Washington Post
