In this compulsively listenable debut, set between London and Sicily over one blood-drenched week in the deceased of summer, the same twin discloses the crazy lies and twists she'll proceed through to not only grab her sister's perfect life but to keep on living it. Alvie Knightly is a train wreck: aimless, haphazard, and virtually constantly drunk. Alvie's existence is made even more futile as opposed to that of her similar and perfect twin sister, Beth. Alvie lives on sociable advertising, eats kebabs for breakfast time, and gets stopped at security when the masturbator in her carry-on starts off buzzing. Beth is married to a hot, rich Italian, dotes on her behalf beautiful baby son, and has always been their mother's favorite. The twins' days of experiencing anything in common besides their looks are long gone. When Beth directs Alvie a first-class plane ticket to go to her in Italy, Alvie is hesitant to go. But when she gets fired from the work she hates and her flatmates kick her out on the streets, a luxury villa in glitzy Taormina all of a sudden sounds more appealing. Beth asks Alvie to swap places with her for simply a few hours so she can go out undetected by her man. Alvie jumps at the chance to take over her sister's life - only if temporarily. But when the night ends with Beth useless at the bottom of the pool, Alvie realizes that is her chance to change her life. Alvie quickly discovers that living Beth's life is harder than she thought. What was her sister hiding from her man? And why does Beth request her to Italy in any way? As Alvie digs deeper, she uncovers Mafia links, secret addicts, attractive hit men, and one extremely corrupt priest, all of whom are starting to catch on to her charade. Now Alvie must rely on all the abilities that made her unemployable - a turned-to-11 libido, a love of weapons, lying down to her mom - if she needs to keep her million-dollar award. She is uncensored, unhinged, and remarkable.
