She is able to pull off the greatest con with very little resistance. They don’t even question her story and just assume that she is exactly who she is until late in the game and even then, they never accuse her of being an outright fraud but something a little less genuine. As the story unfolds, one can not help but be impressed with how Jule was able to insinuate herself in this world of wealth and privilege with such ease. When we meet Jule, she is clearly hiding out in Mexico from something or someone from Mexico, we go to London, San Francisco, Puerto Rico, Martha’s Vineyard to New York. They form a close friendship but like things that burn to bright they tend to fade out too quickly too. Imogen is a runaway heiress with the need to live life to the fullest. Jule is a strong smart girl with the big ambitions and the ability to blend in anywhere. The story is told in reverse chronological order as we piece together what happened with Jule and Imogen. I feel like it left things too wide open and was a bit rushed. So I was all in this novel until the ending.
