Description
Faye has loved Jack since they were students at business school. Jack, the perpetual golden boy, grew up wealthy, unlike Faye, who has worked hard to bury a dark past. When Jack needed help launching a new company, Faye left school to support him, waitressing by day and working as his strategist by night. When the business took off, Faye stayed home and cared for their daughter.
Now, she is wealthier than she ever imagined, but more and more removed from the excitement of the business world. And none of the perks of wealth make up for the fact that Jack has begun to treat her coldly. When Faye discovers that he's having an affair, the polished façade of their life cracks wide open. Faye is alone, emotionally shattered, and financially devastated—but hell hath no fury like a woman with a violent past bent on vengeance. Jack is about to get exactly what he deserves—and so much more. In this splashy, electrifying story of sex, betrayal, and secrets, a woman's revenge is a brutal but beautiful thing.
Advance Praise
"The Golden Cage is a twisting, brutal tale of betrayal and revenge. Lackberg paints a vivid portrait of a dark and complicated anti-heroine who is both the abused and abuser, victim and victimizer. A chilling, timely read sure to thrill her international legion of fans!”
— Lisa Unger, New York Times best-selling author of The Stranger Inside
"A sexy, sensational novel with intoxicating vengeance and an unexpected tenderness—The Golden Cage is tensely and skillfully drawn."
— Karin Slaughter
"It's about time that Americans get to savor the delicious twists and bad behavior that mark a Camilla Läckberg thriller. The Golden Cage is a wonderful, take-no-prisoners mashup of Gone Girl, Billions, and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo."
—Chris Bohjalian, best-selling author of The Flight Attendant and The Red Lotus
“Camilla Lackberg is a master of psychological suspense: she grabbed me by the throat with this sharply written, wildly entertaining tale of wealth, power and revenge and kept me up straight through the night. The Golden Cage may be my first exposure to Europe's "Queen of Crime" but it certainly won't be my last. I'm a Läckberg fan for life.”
— Cristina Alger, New York Times bestselling author of Girls Like Us

Wow! I was blown away by the totally unexpected mind blowing twist at the end of this phenomenal psychological thriller~ revenge is a dish best served by Camilla Lackberg. Faye is a woman who finds herself facing a life-changing situation but ultimately gets what she wants out of life through ingenuity and a fire in her belly.

The story left me breathless, a read-it-all-in-one-night deal. She did bad things, he did bad things. He was rich and powerful she became rich and powerful. The female empowerment marketing campaign seemed over the top but not impossible to imagine in 2020. Thanks for the great read!

Thank you SO much for this ARC!
I have been a huge fan of Camilla Lackberg for a long time! I love the Ice Princess series, so incredible.
BUT THIS, was spectacular and literally combined every aspect I love to see in a book - intrigue, glamour, revenge and suspense. I loved this story and love Camilla Lackberg even more than I thought I already did!
Please keep more stories like this coming!
