When Liz, a down-on-her-luck director stuck working as a chaperone for a reality TV music show, picks up a new contestant from a psychiatric hospital, dubbed “The Singing Patient” by fans online, things take an unexpected turn. The contestant disappears at the airport, and Liz finds herself under police suspicion, accused of helping the woman flee in exchange for money.
Across the country, Norma, an obsessive viewer of The Underdog, is captivated by one contestant’s story. Feeling an intense connection, she travels to Los Angeles to watch the show filmed live and meet her.
As the mystery deepens and the investigation into the missing contestant intensifies, the shocking murder of The Singing Patient’s husband leads Liz and Norma into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. With each twist and turn, Liz discovers that Norma is not your average fan—but someone far more dangerous.
Thank you to the author, Sagit Schwartz, for the eARC copy for review purposes. All opinions expressed here are my own.
I absolutely loved this popcorn thriller, and I’m not even a fan of TV singing competitions. I couldn’t get enough of the dual POVs with Liz and Norma. They each had their own separate stories, and it truly kept me engaged the whole time—with Liz and her urgency to find “The Singing Patient” and Norma with her completely unhinged personality. It was true bliss.
I was so anxious to find out how these two women’s lives intersect, and once they do, trust me, it’s pure chaos. I loved every bit of it.
Readers will surely enjoy the twists in this book; I know I did. One big twist caused my jaw to drop to the floor—literally. It was that shocking.
Do yourself a favor and mark your calendar because on October 14th, “The Underdog” will be widely available, and you don’t want to pass this one up. Happy reading!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5
