Jane is a Los Angeles nurse who grew up in a Christian cult that puts celebrities on trial for their sins. Daniel is a has-been actor whose career ended when the cult family members nearly killed him for flirting with her. Eight years after a romantic meet-cute in Battery Park, both search for someone to fill the gap they imagine the other could've filled if given the chance.

Daniel looks for a girlfriend who will accept the disabilities left from the cult attack. A loving woman will prove to Daniel's blockbuster star brother, Steve, that he's capable of a supporting role in Steve's upcoming movie and relaunching Daniel's career. When a chance encounter unexpectedly reunites them, Jane and Daniel not only see another chance at the love they lost, but an opportunity to create the lives...

     June 28, 2021
     In Viner’s exquisite debut, a Southern California woman raised in a cult struggles to reconnect with a lost love amid a dystopian society. As an adult, Rachel Jane Dalton goes by her middle name in order to erase the memory of an upbringing by a strict Evangelical Christian family that belongs to the Vanguard, a group of militarized zealots who regularly put celebrities on trial for moral transgressions, which are broadcast live on television. Eight years earlier, she fled the group and her abusive husband, Seth, to attend college in New York City, where she fell for charming Daniel Fletcher, the younger brother of a libertine Hollywood actor. Jane and Daniel’s love affair was cut short by an abduction conducted by kidnappers from the Vanguard, who mistook Daniel for his brother and hauled him off to stand “trial” for his sins. Jane, now working as a nurse in the present day, reconnects with Daniel, who’s been released by the Vanguard after having been maimed and tortured in the group’s prison. Their reunion is further complicated by Jane’s suspicion that Seth, who is now Vanguard’s chief, has found her. With a wholly original and eerily suspenseful story, Viner has created a modern society that’s just creepy enough to be believable. Fans of Margaret Atwood will eat this up.
