520    Shirley Jackson meets Ottessa Moshfegh meets My Sister the
       Serial Killer in a brilliantly unsettling and darkly funny
       debut novel full of suspense and paranoia. George March's 
       latest novel is a smash hit. None could be prouder than 
       Mrs. March, his dutiful wife, who revels in his accolades 
       and relishes the lifestyle and status his success brings. 
       A creature of routine and decorum, Mrs. March lives an 
       exquisitely controlled existence on the Upper East Side. 
       Every morning begins the same way, with a visit to her 
       favourite patisserie to buy a loaf of olive bread, but her
       latest trip proves to be her last when she suffers an 
       indignity from which she may never recover: an assumption 
       by the shopkeeper that the protagonist in George March's 
       new book -- a pathetic sex worker, more a figure of 
       derision than desire -- is based on Mrs. March. One casual
       remark robs Mrs. March not only of her beloved olive bread
       but of the belief that she knew everything about her 
       husband ' and herself -- sending her on an increasingly 
       paranoid journey, one that starts within the pages of a 
       book but may very well uncover both a killer and the long-
       buried secrets of Mrs. March's past. A razor-sharp 
       exploration of the fragility of identity and the 
       smothering weight of expectations, Mrs. March heralds the 
       arrival of a wicked and wonderful new voice
