When podcaster Alix Summer meets a stranger who shares her exact name and birthday, a chance encounter spirals into something far darker. Josie Fair seems eager to be interviewed, but as their lives intertwine, Alix begins to suspect she has invited real danger into her home. Twisty, unsettling and utterly addictive, this is Jewell at her most compulsive best. About the Book Alix Summer has the perfect life: a successful podcast, a loving husband, two children and a beautiful home in North London. Then she meets Josie Fair at a joint birthday celebration - a woman who shares her exact birthday but whose life could not be more different. Josie is desperate to be the subject of Alix's next podcast series, insisting she is on the cusp of dramatic change. Curious despite her reservations, Alix agrees to a trial interview, and what she uncovers is far stranger than she anticipated. As the sessions continue, Josie begins inserting herself into every corner of Alix's life - turning up unannounced, offering to help with the children, becoming a fixture in the family home. Alix finds herself both fascinated and repelled, unable to break away even as warning signs accumulate. Slowly, the truth about Josie's past begins to surface: secrets involving her marriage, her daughter, and a chain of events darker than Alix could have imagined. Told partly through podcast transcripts, None of This is True is a masterclass in slow-burn tension, blurring the line between confession and manipulation, victim and predator, and building an atmosphere of creeping dread that keeps readers guessing until the final, shocking pages.
