The soup was made with love. The love was the problem.
When recently heartbroken Isla moves to Portland for a fresh start, she finds exactly what she needs in her new friend, Karen. Quiet, attentive, and incredibly generous, Karen quickly becomes indispensable. She shows up with homemade bone broths, wild-foraged mushroom supplements, and a comforting presence Isla desperately craves.
But Karen’s care isn’t friendship. It’s a meticulously calculated protocol.
As Isla falls victim to a mysterious, wasting illness, her childhood best friend Jeanette realizes the terrifying truth: Isla isn’t just getting sick. She is being systematically dismantled. But proving it means going up against a woman who has spent months anticipating her every move — and Karen will do whatever it takes to ensure Isla never leaves her side.
In the tradition of Patricia Highsmith, for readers of Gillian Flynn and Caroline Kepnes, Angel’s Wing is an intelligent, upmarket, psychological suspense novel where love and control are the same word.
