'Sarah Langan never ceases to amaze' GILLIAN FLYNN Welcome to Black Swan. A picture-perfect 300-acre Utah farm, home to lifestyle influencer Mia Wright, her all-American husband Gray and their eight children. Millions of followers from around the world watch every day as Mia makes meals from scratch, milks the cows, home schools the kids, cleans the house wearing a smile and an immaculate blow-dry. Sent on assignment by her magazine, and desperate to claw back a tarnished career, reporter Jenny Kaplan will spend a week profiling Mia and her family. She arrives at the remote farmhouse ready to pen a scathing expose, but finds it impossible. Mia really is that sunny and sweet, her husband that kind and handsome. Before long, Jenny begins to question her own life choices. Wouldn’t it be nice to just give up this silly career, be more like Mia, baking sour dough and loved by everyone? But the answer is darker than she realises. Because Black Swan always has a price.
