Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Rachel's world is turned upside down when she encounters the woman she suspects of murdering her former lover, Ian. Released from prison, Leigh has transformed into an artist who creates eerily realistic paintings of Ian. Leigh vehemently claims her innocence, arguing that the true poisoner remains at large. Reluctantly, Rachel agrees to assist Leigh in uncovering the real culprit. Soon Rachel finds herself immersed in the world of The Price of Perfection, the play where Ian was fatally poisoned during a live performance. Face-to-face encounters with cast members force Rachel to confront her turbulent affair with Ian twelve years earlier. She was a naïve young woman then, newly arrived in New York City. Ian's belief in open relationships, combined with his professed love for her, confused and troubled her. She struggled to overcome her jealousy and possessiveness as she tried to maintain their relationship. Despite now being in a contented marriage, Rachel's exploration of Ian's murder reawakens memories and emotions she had long buried. As more motives and opportunities to poison Ian emerge, they bring to light Rachel's own contribution to his tragic demise. Blending elements of a classic whodunit with an exploration of Rachel's past, The Jealousy Factor delves into the intricate complexities of love, trust, and the consequences of one's actions. It weaves together elements of mystery, personal reflection, and emotional growth.Rachel's relentless pursuit of the truth forces her to confront her past and ultimately find redemption amidst the tangled web of deception that surrounds Ian's death.
