Out of Character by Vanessa Craft

Tired of the face in the mirror? Slip into a different skin after dark…

Well-kept and well-mannered journalist Emma Gordon has always taken the safe road. Her career is steady but unremarkable, and her personal life, though privileged, is haunted by her mother’s abandonment when Emma was just a child. Struggling to live up to the expectations of her successful, narcissistic father, and yearning for a life worth writing about, Emma finds herself volunteering to write an exposé on London’s top gentlemen’s club.

Out of her depth in this gritty yet glamorous underground world, Emma becomes drawn into a seductive lifestyle of power, money and ambition. But when father discovers her secret life, the two are forced to confront the past and finally face each other.

Set against the dual backdrop of London’s elite hedonistic nightlife and the upper-crust world of Holland Park mansions, Out of Character explores themes of power and identity in this sexy, smart and unconventional coming-of-age story.
