• 4 stele, bazat pe 1 voturi

Introducing Claudia Lin: a sharp-witted amateur sleuth for the 21st century.

This debut novel follows Claudia as she verifies people's online lives, and lies, for a dating detective agency in New York City.

Until a client with an unusual request goes missing .

Claudia is used to disregarding her fractious family's model-minority expectations: she has no interest in finding either a conventional career or a nice Chinese boy.

She's also used to keeping secrets from them, such as that she prefers girls--and that she's just been stealth-recruited by Veracity, a referrals-only online-dating detective agency.

A lifelong mystery reader who wrote her senior thesis on Jane Austen, Claudia believes she's landed her ideal job.

But when a client vanishes, Claudia breaks protocol to investigate--and uncovers a maelstrom of personal and corporate deceit.

Part literary mystery, part family story, The Verifiers is a clever and incisive examination of how technology shapes our choices, and the nature of romantic love in the digital age.

A VINTAGE ORIGINAL.
