"Once one of Silicon Valley's greatest success stories, Facebook has been under constant fire for the past five years, roiled by controversies and crises. It turns out that while the tech giant was connecting the world, they were also mishandling users' data, spreading fake news, and amplifying dangerous, polarizing hate speech ... Drawing on their unrivaled sources, Sheera Frenkel and Cecilia Kang take readers inside the complex court politics, alliances and rivalries within the company to shine a light on the fatal cracks in the architecture of the tech behemoth"--Publisher's description.

Una collega affidabile. Un’amica affettuosa. Una madre e una moglie piena di premure. Neve Connolly è tutte queste cose. Un giorno, in un elegante appartamento a Covent Garden, Neve trova un uomo, il suo amante, morto. E non chiama la polizia. Come tutti, Neve commette degli errori. Alcuni sono impercettibili, fatti senza pensarci troppo. Altri sono enormi. Altri ancora sono deliberati. Neve è un essere umano, dopo tutto. Non così perfetto come tutti dicono. Ma gli errori hanno conseguenze. E quando uno di questi si rivela davvero grave, la catena degli sbagli si trasforma in una spirale inarrestabile, fuori controllo, che inchioda Neve alle sue bugie. E mette in pericolo non solo lei, ma le persone che le sono più care. Suo marito. I suoi amici. Sua figlia Mabel, già così fragile, così provata dalla vita. Anche se volesse, Neve non può più tornare indietro. La verità è adesso più pericolosa di una menzogna. Una bugiarda. Un’adultera. Una minaccia. Neve Connolly è tutte queste cose. Ma potrebbe essere anche un’assassina? Un giallo ad alta tensione da una firma internazionale del thriller psicologico, con milioni di copie vendute, che ancora una volta conquista i suoi lettori con un perfetto gioco di prestigio di duplicità e suspense.
