I’m absolutely thrilled to welcome Christine Mangan to CBTB today! Christine is the author of TANGERINE - one of the most exceptional debuts I've read in ages - and maybe ever. In this stunning examination of the intricacies of female friendship, Mangan sets a tense, almost claustrophobic encounter against the backdrop of 1950’s Morocco. I highly recommend TANGERINE for fans of Patricia Highsmith, Gillian Flynn, and Alfred Hitchcock—and yes, these are lofty comparisons to make, but this book delivers. Read on for my Q&A with Christine!

Book Review: TANGERINE by Christine Mangan
TANGERINE by Christine Mangan (on sale March 27th, 2018) is a richly imagined and impeccably delivered suspense novel sets a plot worthy of Patricia Highsmith against the backdrop of dazzling, almost larger-than-life 1950’s Morocco. Come for TANGERINE’s stunning package and superb early praise; stay for its razor-sharp portrayal of obsession and manipulation, set against movie-worthy scenery. In a story humming with interpersonal tension and simmering with the heat and haze of Morocco, Mangan weaves an outstanding and transportive thriller that will delight fans of Patricia Highsmith, Gillian Flynn, and Alfred Hitchcock.
