Duplicate Keys

They were six friends from the Midwest who moved to New York City with the high hopes of making a big-time splash in the music industry. Though the dream faded, the bonds between this tight-knit group did not. Or so it seemed. For one brilliantly sunny day, Alice Ellis discovers the grisly murders of two of the group, shot dead in the apartment for which any number of friends, acquaintances, and strangers had an extra set of keys. Written with the depth and passion of Jane Smiley's Pulitzer Prize–winning novel A Thousand Acres, Duplicate Keys is a riveting suspense story about the emotional aftermath of murder—the jealousy and hatred, the deception and rage, and the shocking secrets that lie between even the closest of friends.
