Revenge is a reflection. And Celeste can't face her own.

Celeste's husband was murdered by the Black Widow Killer, shattering her entire world. Only one thing keeps her pushing forward: Revenge. Her twin sister, Lucille, selflessly volunteers to help bring the killer to justice. The two devise a devious plan to find and ensnare him-but no plan is perfect.

The deeper Celeste and Lucille sink into their scheme, the more Lucille begins to change. Her moods grow darker, more violent. Her presence feels...off.

Does Lucille have secrets?

Or is grief twisting their realities?

Samuel, the Black Widow Killer, believes he saves women from their monsters. But when the woman he loves vanishes, he's forced to confront the consequences of his actions and question how much of his life has been a lie. Someone is watching him. Someone who knows exactly what he's done.

As Celeste and Samuel's lives collide in a flurry of obsession, deception, uncovered truths, the most dangerous enemy might be the reflection in the mirror.

A chilling psychological thriller about grief, identity, and the secrets we keep from ourselves, Grasping Smoke is perfect for fans of The Silent Patient, Alice Feeney, and Freida McFadden
