Two months after losing his wife, Dr. Justin Wright is barely holding his shattered family together. Then a stranger leaves a voicemail claiming to be related to Mandy-and the impossible truth behind her call threatens to reopen every wound Justin has tried to survive.
Monica says she is Mandy's identical twin, separated from her at birth and hidden from the family for more than sixty years. Her face, her voice, and even her smallest gestures bring Justin's wife vividly back to life. But grief has taught him that resemblance is not the same as trust. As Monica pushes her way deeper into the Wright family, Justin is forced to question whether she wants a connection to the sister she never knew-or something far more dangerous.
Meanwhile, Michael Wright is fighting a threat of his own. Benji, a former patient with a reckless appetite for danger, has begun dating Michael's estranged wife, Gayle. Michael knows the relationship is no coincidence. Benji has stalked him, terrorized him, and carefully rewritten every encounter until Michael appears paranoid and unstable. Now Benji is gaining access to Michael's young son, Daniel-and Michael has no evidence strong enough to stop him.
As Janelle tries to protect Michael while concealing a professional secret that could destroy their relationship, Justin's growing bond with Monica places him at odds with the people who fear she is exploiting his grief. Every character is guarding something. Every secret demands another lie. And while the Wrights struggle to determine whom they can trust, Benji prepares one final thrill that could tear the family apart forever.
Deceived is the fifth book in the Justin Wright Suspense Series, a gripping psychological thriller about grief, obsession, family secrets, gaslighting, and the devastating consequences of believing the wrong person. With emotionally charged characters, escalating danger, and a cliff-hanger ending that changes everything, Rob Kaufman delivers a suspenseful journey in which love can be manipulated, truth can be weaponized, and no one is exactly who they seem.
For the strongest reading experience, begin with Altered, Book 1 of the Justin Wright Suspense Series.
